Switch lenses. Shoot almighty professional quality with 24.3MP. React with speed and accuracy thanks to Fast Hybrid Autofocus and a high resolution OLED viewfinder. Realise your creative vision anywhere with the world’s smallest 35mm full-frame interchangeable-lens camera.
 
Capture almighty 24.3MP image quality
With a 24.3MP 35mm full-frame Exmor® CMOS sensor, you can really express your creativity. Shoot beautiful defocus effects. Capture highly realistic detail, even in low-light. Ensure every shade and tone comes to life with a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 25600.
 
Shoot the detail fast with less noise
It’s the finer details that really make a difference in photography. The advanced, high-speed BIONZ X image processing engine ensures that every aspect of the scene is faithfully reproduced even when you’re shooting with deep focus and a high pixel count.
 
Catch the moment in the blink of an eye
Fast Hybrid Autofocus helps you get the best from the full-frame sensor. Lock-on to your subject fast. Shoot a continuous burst of images at 5fps. Together with the OLED Tru-Finder™ viewfinder you can see an exact view of the shot, in high contrast and high resolution.
 
Designed for professional use anywhere
You’re free to travel light but still outperform cameras twice the size. Customisable buttons and an intuitive control wheel easily let you fine-tune settings. The robust build – with dust and moisture resistant seals – and sure grip mean you’re ready for any assignment.
 
Share results instantly with Wi-Fi & NFC
Go anywhere, share anytime. Simply touch the camera against an NFC-enabled smartphone or tablet to activate apps or share photos or movies – no extra cables, no complicated connections. Use built-in Wi-Fi to upload to social networks or connect to a PC, TV and more.
 
Show 4K Ultra HD photos & Full HD movies
The high image quality and defocusing power of the full-frame sensor open up a world of detail. See your photos on a big screen 4K Ultra HD TV. Or use the camera’s professional movie-making features to shoot detailed Full HD movies in 60p, or 24p for that classic movie feel.
