Model codeILCE-7M5 (body only) Sony—
Sensor35 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.

Sony
APS-C (23.3 × 15.5 mm) Exmor R CMOS; about 26.0 MP effective (stills)

Effective resolution for movies is about 19.9 MP; the APS-C sensor brings roughly a 1.5× crop factor versus full frame.

Sony
Image processorBIONZ XR2 with integrated AI processing unit Sony—
Dynamic rangeUp to 16 stops (manufacturer claim)

Sony does not give the measurement conditions.

Autofocus759-point phase detection; human, animal, bird, insect, car, train and airplane recognition; down to EV-4 SonyFast Hybrid AF; 759 phase-detection points for stills, 495 for movies; human, animal and bird recognition

Phase detection quickly works out which way to shift focus; eye and subject tracking can be used for video.

Sony
Continuous shooting30 fps electronic shutter, 10 fps mechanical; blackout-free with full AF/AE tracking in electronic mode Sony—
Pre-CaptureRecords frames from up to one second before the shutter is fully pressed

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

Viewfinder0.5-type OLED, 3,686,400 dots, about 0.78x magnification Sony—
Monitor3.2-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.

VideoUp 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
—
Bit rateXAVC 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.

Recording timeAbout 90 minutes of continuous 4K 60p 4:2:0 8-bit recording

The duration depends on ambient temperature and settings.

Card slotsSlot 1: SD (UHS-I/II) or CFexpress Type A; Slot 2: SD (UHS-I/II) Sony—
USB2 × USB-C: port 1 10 Gbit/s (USB 3.2), port 2 480 Mbit/s (USB 2.0); both support USB PD

The battery can charge and the camera can run from either port; Sony says PD power capacity is 3–4 times that of the α7 IV.

Processor—BIONZ XR Sony
4K video—4K up to 59.94p; XAVC HS/S 4:2:2 10-bit 200 Mbps, XAVC S-I 4:2:2 10-bit 600 Mbps

Sony says 4K is oversampled from 5.6K. 10-bit 4:2:2 reduces banding when grading; high bit rates such as S-I may need a fast (V90-class) card.

Sony
Full HD video—Up to 119.88p (4:2:0 8-bit) Sony
Colour profiles—S-Log3, S-Cinetone (Cinematic Vlog Setting), user LUT import

S-Log3 records wide dynamic range as a flat image that needs grading; S-Cinetone gives a cinematic look without grading.

Sony
Stabilisation—Lens-based optical stabilisation; electronic Active mode for movies

There is no in-body stabilisation. Active mode reduces shake by cropping the image.

Sony
Shutter and burst—Electronic shutter only; 1/8000–30 s; up to 11 fps

With no mechanical shutter, flash sync is limited to 1/30 s and fast-moving subjects can distort.
