Sony A7CR Body (ILCE-7CR) (Silver)

Sony Alpha A7CR Body — Silver (ILCE-7CR/S)

Overview: The Sony Alpha A7CR (ILCE-7CR) is a high-resolution full-frame mirrorless camera that combines the imaging power of the acclaimed Alpha 7R V with the compact, portable body of the Alpha 7C series. Built around a 61MP full-frame Exmor R back-illuminated CMOS sensor and powered by the BIONZ XR processor alongside a dedicated AI Processing Unit, the A7CR delivers extraordinary resolution, wide dynamic range, and professional-grade autofocus in one of the most portable full-frame camera bodies available. Available in a distinctive Silver finish, it is an outstanding choice for landscape, portrait, travel, and studio photographers who refuse to compromise on image quality.

Key Features:

• 61MP Full-Frame Exmor R BSI CMOS Sensor: The same back-illuminated 61MP sensor as the flagship Alpha 7R V delivers outstanding resolution, low noise, and a wide 15-stop dynamic range. The sensor's copper wiring layer dramatically improves data transmission speed for fast, high-resolution capture with a native ISO range of 100–32000 (expandable to ISO 50–102400).
• BIONZ XR Processor with AI Processing Unit: The BIONZ XR engine delivers up to 8x greater processing performance than previous generations. The dedicated AI Processing Unit enables sophisticated real-time subject recognition, more reliable exposure metering in difficult lighting conditions, and improved auto white balance accuracy.
• AI-Powered Autofocus: The camera's advanced phase-detect AF system covers 693 points across 74% of the frame, complemented by 425 contrast-detect points. AI-driven subject recognition supports humans (eyes, face, body), animals, birds, cars, trains, aircraft, and insects — in both stills and video. Human Pose Estimation technology enables more accurate AE and skin-tone detection even when subjects are backlit or not facing the camera.
• 7-Stop 5-Axis In-Body Image Stabilisation (IBIS): A pixel-level 5-axis IBIS system provides up to 7 stops of shake compensation, countering pitch, yaw, roll, and lateral shifts during handheld shooting of both stills and video.
• 240.8MP Pixel Shift Multi Shooting: Working in conjunction with the IBIS system, this compositing mode makes 16 consecutive exposures with micro sensor shifts to produce approximately 240.8MP of combined image data (19,008 x 12,672 pixels) for exceptional colour accuracy and fine detail in controlled shooting conditions.
• 4K Video up to 60p: Captures 4K video at up to 60fps with 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording. Supports S-Log3, S-Gamut3.Cine, S-Cinetone, and user-assignable LUTs for professional post-production workflows and Cinema Line colour matching. Breathing Compensation is supported on compatible lenses.
• Compact Rangefinder-Style Body: Measuring 124 x 71.1 x 63.4mm and weighing just 515g (including battery and card), the A7CR brings professional high-resolution performance to a compact, travel-friendly form factor. A front command dial and improved handgrip depth over the original A7C improve control and handling.
• Vari-Angle LCD Touchscreen: A 3.0-inch fully articulated vari-angle touchscreen with 1.03 million dots provides flexible framing for shooting at low or high angles, self-portraits, and vlogging, with intuitive touch controls for focus and menu navigation.
• 0.70x Electronic Viewfinder: A 2.36 million dot OLED EVF with 0.70x magnification provides a clear, high-contrast view for precise composition in any lighting conditions.
• Dust and Moisture Resistant: A weather-sealed body construction provides reliability in challenging outdoor conditions. The shutter closes automatically when the camera is powered off to protect the sensor from dust during lens changes.
• Wireless Connectivity: Wi-Fi 802.11ac with 2x2 MIMO, Bluetooth 5.0, and NFC Type 3 enable fast image transfer, remote control via the Sony Imaging Edge Mobile app, and FTP wireless transfer for professional workflows.
• USB 3.2 Gen 2: High-speed USB-C connectivity supports fast data transfer, in-camera USB charging, and tethered shooting.
• Includes Grip Extender: A screw-in grip extender (GP-X2) is included in the box, providing additional depth for a more secure handheld grip.
