Sony a7C II Body

Sony’s a7C II is uniquely compact and lightweight, and packed with cutting-edge capture tech for both stills and movies. This is what creators have been waiting for, the essential tool for capturing the world the way you see it.

Incredibly compact and lightweight, packed with full-frame performance

Compact and lightweight, the α7C II is the full-frame camera that serious creators have been waiting for. Packed with cutting-edge capture technology for both stills and movies, it’s the essential tool for capturing the world the way you want to.

33.0MP full-frame Exmor R™ back-illuminated CMOS sensor

Delivering outstanding performance and excellent image quality for both stills and movies, the α7C II’s new 33.0 megapixel1 Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor provides high-speed readout, high sensitivity from ISO 100 to ISO 512002, low noise, and highly accurate color reproduction.

BIONZ XR™ processing power for exceptional image quality

The advanced BIONZ XR processing engine delivers up to eight times3 more processing power than its predecessor. It minimizes processing latency while boosting movie and still image processing power, achieving natural gradations, realistic color, low noise, superior image quality and fast menu response.

Dedicated AI Processor for advanced subject recognition and tracking

The α7C II is equipped with an AI processing unit that can handle significant amounts of data, enabling more accurate recognition and tracking of subjects and recognition of a wider range of subject types.

Outstanding 4K 4:2:2 10-bit movie recording up to 60p/50p

The α7C II offers 4K 60p/50p movie capture7,8 with full pixel readout and no pixel binning, taking advantage of the latest BIONZ XR processing engine and its wide dynamic range to produce exceptionally smooth images of fast-moving subjects. When recording 4K movies at 30p, full-frame 7K oversampling delivers 4K with enhanced clarity and detail.

Active Mode image stabilization supports handheld movie shooting

Active Mode provides enhanced image stabilization for handheld shooting. A precision image stabilisation unit, advanced gyro sensors, and an optimized image stabilisation algorithm work together for exceedingly smooth, stable movie footage. In addition to in-body stabilization, compatible lenses with their own built-in image stabilization coordinate with the camera body for highly effective control, enabling handheld telephoto shots with greater clarity.

Consistently accurate exposure and color with new AE algorithm

Employing the latest processing engine combined with an advanced AE algorithm, the α7C II can detect the skin area of faces and adjust exposure accordingly for both stills and movies. It achieves consistent exposure control even in challenging shooting conditions when the subject is backlit, in shadows or direct sunlight, or not directly facing the camera.

Advanced movie recording formats for simpler post-production

In-camera 10-bit 4:2:2 recording is available when using Long GOP or All-Intra compression, making it possible to color grade for fuller, more natural gradations while generally providing greater editing freedom.

Log recording and LUT handling for powerful creative possibilities

The α7C II boasts an S-Log3 gamma curve that emphasizes gradation characteristics from shadows to mid-grey (18% grey), achieving 14+ stops of latitude. S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3.Cine color gamut settings are also provided. You can apply a custom LUT (Look Up Table) with a Log gamma curve to preview how the footage will look in post-production, or to even record footage conveniently with a PP LUT already applied.

S-Cinetone™ for a cinematic look without the need for post processing

Utilizing the same color science from Sony’s highly regarded Cinema Line, S-Cinetone delivers natural mid-tones that are essential to healthy-looking skin tones, plus soft colors and gorgeous highlights straight from the camera without post processing.

Wide-area, high-density autofocus with 759 phase detection AF points

The α7C II uses up to 759 phase detection points in a high-density array that cover approximately 94% of the image area when shooting stills, enabling it to recognize the subject even when they only occupy a small area of the frame.

Tenacious Real-time Tracking lets you concentrate on composition

The α7C II boasts greatly improved AI-based subject recognition, offering higher tracking reliability in a wider range of shooting situations. Specify a subject and half-press the shutter button to get the camera to start tracking, leaving you free to concentrate on framing and composition.
