AutofocusUp to 759 phase-detection points SonyFast Hybrid AF; 759 phase-detection points for stills, 627 for movies; EV −4–20; human, animal, bird, insect, car, train and aeroplane recognition

Subject recognition finds the chosen type (for example a bird) in the frame and tracks its eye or body; choosing the right subject type in the menu strengthens tracking.

StabilisationFive-axis sensor shift Sony—
VideoUp to 8K/29.97p; 4K/119.88p

8K narrows the angle of view; uncropped 4K120 requires View Priority.

Sony
4K up to 59.94p, 10-bit 4:2:2 with XAVC HS and XAVC S (up to 200 Mbps); up to 600 Mbps with XAVC S-I

DPReview says 4K 30p is downsampled from a full-width 7K readout, while 4K 60p is recorded in Super 35 (APS-C) mode with a 1.5× crop. 10-bit 4:2:2 reduces banding when grading colour.
