Lens and shooting
Lens mountL-MountL-Mount
StabilisationLens and sensor shiftLens and sensor shift
Maximum continuous burst9 fps30 fps
AutofocusContrast AF with DFD; human/animal detection, tracking and 225-area selection. Firmware 1.6 added head recognition and revised tracking; not a phase-detection sensorPhase Hybrid AF combines phase and contrast detection; 779 points (maker US). Current Japan recognition includes people, animals, cars, motorcycles, trains and aircraft; launch-era reviews described fewer subjects, so later firmware recognition is not treated as a launch feature. Continuous autofocus during zooming requires compatible updated lens firmware
ShutterFocal-plane mechanical, electronic front curtain and electronic shutter options; maker rated shutter life approximately 400000 imagesMechanical 60–1/8000 second, Bulb approximately 30 minutes; electronic first curtain 60–1/2000 with the same Bulb maximum; electronic 60–1/8000 with Bulb approximately 60 seconds
Burst detailNative 9 fps AFS/MF; mechanical/electronic front curtain 6 fps AFC, electronic 5 fps AFC. Maker buffer more than 40 RAW, 35 RAW+JPEG or 50 JPEG using Sony XQD G-series card. Reduced-resolution 6K/4K Photo modes are separate from full-resolution burstsFull-resolution electronic SH30 at 30 fps AFS/AFC/MF; SH30 PRE added in version 2.0. Current SH buffer 200 RAW/RAW+JPEG/JPEG frames. Mechanical/electronic-first-curtain 9 fps AFS/MF or 7 fps AFC; normal electronic 9/8 respectively. Normal RAW/RAW+JPEG buffer at least 200 and JPEG at least 300 frames under maker media/test conditions
Stabilisation detailFive-axis Body I.S.; firmware 1.2 dated 9 July 2019 raises rating from 5.5 to 6 stops with S-X50 at 50 mm. Compatible-lens Dual I.S. 2 rises from 6 to 6.5 stops with S-R24105 at 105 mm or S-R70200 at 200 mm, CIPA yaw/pitchFive-axis sensor-shift B.I.S. with compatible-lens Dual I.S.2; maker US Dual I.S.2 claim 6.5 stops under CIPA yaw/pitch conditions with S-E70200 at 200 mm and updated lens firmware. Active I.S. optimises video correction; electronic video modes have separate restrictions
Flash–No built-in flash; external flash sync up to 1/250 second, with reduced guide number and maker restrictions at the fastest sync setting

Original launch specifications were 4K up to 60p with 8-bit internal recording. The same update adds 4K60 4:2:2 10-bit HDMI output, distinct from internal recording. Launch review limitations are historical rather than current firmware specificationsInternal 5952×3968 3:2 open-gate 6K at 29.97p, 4:2:0 10-bit HEVC Long GOP 200 Mbps; C4K/4K 59.94p uses an APS-C crop. ALL-Intra and ProRes 422/HQ options include 5776×3056 up to 29.97p with supported USB SSD/media restrictions. RAW is separate HDMI output to compatible Atomos/Blackmagic recorders, including 5888×3312 12-bit up to 29.97p or APS-C 4128×2176 up to 59.94p; not internal RAW. Built-in fan; maker unlimited-recording claims require 0–40 °C, and Thermal Management STANDARD can stop high-resolution recording after 30 minutes. Battery/media can also limit duration
AudioBuilt-in stereo microphone, monaural speaker, microphone/line input and headphone monitoring; optional DMW-XLR1 adapterBuilt-in stereo microphone; 48 kHz/24-bit recording and compatible external/XLR high-resolution 96 kHz/24-bit options under maker mode restrictions
