Unrivaled AF performance for breathtaking shots
Fast and accurate automatic focus made possible by a combination of innovative technologies captures fleeting moments in amazing detail. A total of 425 phase-sensing AF points and contrast-sensing AF work together to achieve an extremely remarkable 0.02s recording speed, and high-signal AF tracking technology reliably tracks even irregularly moving subjects.

Real-time tracking ensures that the selected topic remains in focus
When tracking fast-moving subjects, the camera's automatic motion tracker uses an artificial intelligence (AI)-based subject recognition algorithm to recognize the subject based on color, pattern (brightness), subject distance (depth), and face/eye information, and keeps the focus on it.

Reliable real-time Eye AF for better portraits
When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the camera's real-time Eye AF system detects the subject's eyes and automatically adjusts the focus accordingly, and even prioritizes the subject's left or right eye as desired. When AF-C is activated, the system maintains stable focus even when the face is half-hidden or backlit, or when the subject is looking down.

Real-time Eye AF for animals
The subject recognition technology of the real-time Eye AF function can now be applied not only to humans, but also to animals. When activated, it detects and tracks animals' eyes quickly, precisely and automatically for even better shots of pets and wildlife alike.

High-speed continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking
Every moment of fast movements can be captured in burst mode at up to 11 frames per second or at 8 frames per second in silent shutter mode with up to 77 frames. The display delay has been reduced to a minimum, so even in preview mode you can record accurately at a speed of up to 8 frames per second. Images taken with continuous shooting can be conveniently displayed in groups in playback mode.

Accurate autofocus even in low light
Highly accurate automatic focus is possible even in the dark thanks to the camera's sophisticated AF algorithm. High AF sensitivity means reliable AF-S autofocus down to EV -2.

Versatile touch operation
The camera's LCD panel supports intuitive touch controls such as Touch Panel (to move the focus point smoothly), Touch Focus (to set the focus point), Touch Shutter Release (to release the shutter) and Touch Tracking (to activate real-time AF).

Focus magnifier for finer focus adjustment in MF/AF mode
If you need particularly precise autofocus, such as when taking macro photos, you can display the area you want to focus on in a zoomed-in view. Finally, you can precisely set the focus point on the touch screen or with the focus point selector.

Easy manual focus adjustment with clearly visible peak values
When using manual focus, the camera highlights the sharpest part of the entire image area with a color highlight. In terms of high-contrast peak value colors, you can choose between blue, red, yellow and white, in order to improve the visibility of the sharpest areas during the detailed focusing required for taking portraits and macro photos.

An innovative image processing system
The camera's APS-C sized 24.2 megapixel Exmor TM CMOS sensor provides a wide sensitivity range and extremely low noise. When used together with the latest generation BIONZ X TM image processing processor, you can create beautiful, high-resolution images with excellent image clarity and texture reproduction.

Impressive image quality, low noise and wide ISO range
The camera has a wide range of sensitivity from ISO 100 to 32000, which can be extended up to 51200 for photos. If you shoot with high sensitivity in low light conditions, you can still capture high-quality images thanks to the extremely low noise level. Applying noise reduction and sharpness processing selectively within the frame, Area Noise Reduction and Detail Rendering technology help reproduce subject textures and shadows down to the finest detail.

Lifelike skin tones
The skin tone management feature is derived from our latest widely acclaimed full frame cameras and is able to capture the natural beauty of human skin tones and help you create the most advantageous portraits possible.

Creative style and Image effect
With the camera's Creative Style feature, you can set settings such as "Vivid" or "Portrait" to give your photos a unique style, as well as fine-tune the exposure, contrast, saturation and
