Sony A7r IV ��� Better Than its Predecessor, Faster in Performance
If you are looking to buy a brand-new full-frame mirrorless camera, choose the Sony A7r IV. This model is the latest and arguably the best in the A7 series. It has better camera specifications than its predecessors, thus promising a higher quality of images and videos and faster performance.
While Sony a7R III has sorted out many of the common issues of mirrorless cameras, like battery life and autofocus, there are still so many more features that must be improved. These are what you'll get in Sony's next generation of full-frame mirrorless camera, the Sony A7r IV. Here are some of the features of this model that are worth highlighting.
- 61 Megapixels
Compared to the 42-megapixel sensors of the two previous generations, the 61-megapixel sensor of Sony A7r IV is no doubt more superior. In terms of pixel count, this camera doesn't only defeat its predecessors but also its full-frame rivals in other brands.
- Crop Mode
This feature come in handy when doing sports, action, and wildlife photography. It gives you plenty of opportunity for cropping while keeping the important details in the image sharp and clear. Shooting in crop mode also means you no longer have to crop the image during the post-production phase. Thus, saving you extra time.
- 5.76 Million dot OLED panel with 0.78x magnification
The tiniest details do matter in photography. That's why Sony has upgraded A7R's viewfinder, which now has a higher resolution 5.76 Million dot OLED panel with 0.78x magnification. This is the same panel resolution used by high-end competitors. It is very useful, especially if you are shooting in manual focus mode all the time.
- Better autofocus
Critics praised the 399 phase-detect points of the previous A7r II and III, and they love the 567 phase-detect points of A7r IV even more. In the earlier models, only 45% of the frame was covered. But the latest model covers 74% of the frame in a roughly square, 99.7% vertically and 74% horizontally.
