SpecificationFujifilm X-T30 IIISony α7 V
Release year20252025
Sensor26.1 MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4

APS-C is a sensor size smaller than full frame and common in mirrorless cameras. X-Trans is Fujifilm's own colour filter layout.

Fujifilm
35 mm full-frame partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS; 33.0 MP effective for stills, 27.6 MP for video; 35.7 MP total

The partially stacked design speeds up sensor readout, reducing the skew (rolling shutter) the electronic shutter causes with fast-moving subjects.

StabilisationNo in-body stabilisation · digital stabilisation for video only

For stills, stabilisation requires a lens with OIS.

AutofocusHybrid AF with phase detection down to −7 EV · subject detection: animal, bird, car, motorcycle and bike, airplane, train, insect, drone

−7 EV shows that focusing can work in very dark scenes; the lower the value, the less light is needed.

Video6.2K 3:2 30p 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording · 4K 60p · Full HD 240p · 12-bit RAW over HDMI (6.2K / 5.2K)

10-bit 4:2:2 keeps more tone and colour information for grading. HDMI RAW needs a compatible external recorder.

Fujifilm
Up to 4K 119.88p; full-frame 4K 60p oversampled from 7K (no pixel binning); 8-bit 4:2:0 and 10-bit 4:2:2; XAVC S, XAVC HS, XAVC S-I; S-Log3

Oversampling builds each 4K frame from more pixel data for extra detail.

Sony
Image stabilisation—5-axis sensor shift; 7.5 stops at centre, 6.5 stops at the edge

Measured to CIPA 2024 with the FE 50 mm F1.2 GM lens; results may differ with other lenses.

Sony
Continuous shooting—30 fps electronic shutter, 10 fps mechanical; blackout-free with full AF/AE tracking in electronic mode Sony
Pre-Capture—Records frames from up to one second before the shutter is fully pressed

Helps catch hard-to-predict moments such as a bird taking off.

Sony
Monitor—3.2-type TFT touchscreen, 2,095,104 dots; 4-axis articulation (98° up, 40° down, 180° sideways, 270° rotation when open)

The screen can both swing out to face forward and tilt up or down on the body axis, so it works for both video and low-angle stills.

Sony
Bit rate—XAVC S-I 4K up to 600 Mbit/s (10-bit 4:2:2, 59.94p), XAVC HS 4K up to 280 Mbit/s

High bit-rate recording needs a card fast enough for the chosen format.

Sony
Recording time—About 90 minutes of continuous 4K 60p 4:2:0 8-bit recording

The duration depends on ambient temperature and settings.
