Sony just announced the a7r IV the first thirty five-millimeter full-frame
mirrorless camera with 61 megapixels this is a fourth-generation camera from
Sony in about six years and it's clear that Sony wants to maintain its position
as leader in the full-frame mirrorless market so get ready to clean out your
hard drives and free up some space let's look at some of the exciting new
features found in the sony a7r 4 first 61 megapixels sit back and let that sink
in this is higher resolution than some medium format cameras currently made now
this is a solid bump in resolution from sony a7r 3 at 42 megapixel not only do
you have high resolution but you have the processing power now to back it up
so you'll be able to shoot continuously at 10 frames per second with the
mechanical shutter for about 68 frames with continuous autofocus and auto
exposure tracking switch the aps-c mode and now you have a 26 megapixel camera
with a 200 plus shot buffer not only is this great for studio photographers but
this should also be great for sports and wildlife photographers imagine attaching
this camera to the back border of a basketball hoop with a wide-angle lens
not only will you be able to get a fast sequence but you'll have multiple angles
to choose from it's high resolution sensor as you've seen in some of my
previous lens reviews I love to photograph cats and the a7 or 4 has some
tricks up its sleeve when it comes to autofocus now I detect AF isn't new but
how it is implemented is and Sony does it the best but that's not it folks not
only does it have human I detect AF in stills mode but now it will have
real-time human and pet I detect AF with tracking in both stills and movie mode
so be prepared for more cat photos and videos and since we're talking about
autofocus this camera has 567 phases to take the AF sensors that covers 74% of
the area of the sensor and almost 100% in the super 35 millimeter crop mode
which should definitely your hit rate while tracking subject
matter across the frame now I've been a skeptic about electronic viewfinders for
a long time but now that the a7 r4 features a five point seven six million
dot finder I'm excited to see how true to life the image looks through it now
if you're a video shooter you might have been disappointed when Sony didn't
mention 4k 60 a new 10 bit codec or the ability to record raw externally and I
think we're gonna have to wait for that in the a7 s mark 3 and like the ace of
an hour 3 it will provide the best results when shot in the super 35 moment
your crop mode with no pixel binning in addition to all this sony has redesigned
the camera they've improved the weather and dust seals which we're lagging
behind Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras and now it accepts two UHS two SD cards and
they've moved slot one to the top woohoo it still doesn't have a flippy screen
but hey that was expected the grip has been improved for better ergonomics
buttons should have a better tactile feel and you can now save camera
settings to an SD card to easily set up a second camera this is going to be
great for wedding shooters or people out on assignment does a 61 megapixel
