The 61MP Exmor R sensor and dedicated AI processing unit deliver real-time subject recognition AF across 693 points, with the BIONZ XR engine enabling 10fps bursts and 8K 24p video. A 9.44M-dot EVF refreshing at 120fps and a 3.2-inch 4-axis articulating touchscreen provide precise framing, while the 657g body stays portable.
