Sony Alpha a7 II Full-Frame Mirrorless Digital Camera with Sony FE 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens

35 mm full-frame 24.3 MP 7 Exmor® CMOS sensor

The image sensor delivers beautiful images from corner to corner, with stunning 24.3 MP resolution. Enjoy low noise, extremely wide dynamic range, and amazingly rich and subtle gradations. Innovations that only Sony could achieve reproduce details more faithfully so that every scene looks incredibly real.

BIONZ X™ image processing engine

BIONZ X™ faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye, thanks to its extra high-speed processing capabilities. Together with front-end Large Scale Integration that accelerates processing, it renders more natural details, more realistic images, and richer tonal gradations, and produces less noise when shooting still images and movies.

5-axis image stabilisation

The α7 II dramatically expands your range of expression by compensating for five types of camera shake during handheld shooting of still images and movies. The highly effective 4.5-step compensation lets you confidently zoom in on faraway subjects, snap detailed close-ups, capture night scenes and more—all with minimal camera shake blur.

Automatic optimisation for every α lens

Confidently use your favourite E-mount and A-mount lenses, knowing the α7 II analyzes information from the lens to optimize depiction performance and 5-axis image stabilization for the particular lens you mount. When using E-mount lenses with optical stabilization (OSS), the α7 II combines the best of in-lens and in-camera image stabilization.

Focal plane phase-detection AF with A-mount lenses

The α7 II offers focal plane phase-detection AF even when an A-mount lens is mounted via LAEA3(LA-EA16) mount adapter. So you can take advantage of the wide AF coverage, high-speed response, high tracking capability and high optical performance of A-mount lenses.

High-performance Fast Hybrid AF

The newly enhanced Fast Hybrid AF system delivers extremely high-speed response, highly accurate prediction, and wide area coverage for autofocusing and tracking you can always depend on. It’s remarkably fast for a full-frame camera AF system (30% faster than the α7) and accurately predicts subject movement so you can steadfastly track your subject.

Lock-on AF tracking

It’s easy to keep moving subjects in focus with enhanced Lock-on AF, which analyzes even more information from the scene to ensure usage of the optimal AF point for smooth, stable autofocusing. Its ability to detect and track moving subjects is significantly improved, thanks to Sony’s advanced proprietary image analysis technology.

Area-specific noise reduction

Area-specific noise reduction selectively divides the image into areas based on patterns (such as edges, textures, and flat areas like blue skies), then applies the most appropriate noise reduction to each area to markedly reduce noise and achieve a new level of clarity.

5 fps AF/AE shooting with accurate tracking

When your subject is moving fast, you can beautifully capture the decisive moment with sharp, well-exposed results thanks to 5 fps continuous AF/AE shooting. A dramatically improved algorithm accurately predicts subject movement so you can steadfastly track subjects even when shooting continuously.

Pro-quality XAVC S format

For extremely high image quality and minimal noise, record movies in the high-bitrate XAVC S format, which was developed based on the professional XAVC 4K/HD format. It offers Full HD (1920 x 1080) image recording at 50 Mbps (60p/50p, 30p/25p, 24p) and uses linear PCM sound for high-quality sound recording.

S-Log2 gamma setting

This proprietary Sony gamma setting, featured in professional camcorders, creates a 1,300% wider dynamic range for smooth expression of gradation with reduced whiteout and blackout. Through colour grading in postproduction, you can make the most of the low-noise image and super-rich detail to achieve various types of image expression.

High-contrast, high-resolution XGA OLED Tru-Finder™

The viewfinder offers impressive visibility that contributes to stress-free, intuitive operation. You can accurately monitor what will appear in your final images because it faithfully displays the effects of your various camera settings. Moreover, an advanced three-lens optical system offers rich tonal gradation and extremely high contrast.

Antidust system and coating

To keep your photos blemish free, a special antistatic coating on the surface of the optical filter suppresses the attachment of both dry and moist dust particles when changing lenses. An anti-dust mechanism also vibrates at high speed when you select Cleaning Mode to remove any particles adhering to the filter.

Robust magnesium alloy body

The remarkably compact and lightweight body is solidly built to withstand the rigours of shooting in the field. It’s the ideal blend of light-weight, solid reliability, and steady handling, thanks to a top cover, front cover, and internal structure constructed of rigid magnesium alloy.
