Sharper, steadier, longer-lasting
The A7R II also inherits the 5-axis stabilization system first seen on the Sony A7 II, but specially tuned for the higher resolution sensor.
It moves the sensor to compensate for any camera movement during the exposure, or while filming, and it means you don't need image-stabilized lenses – although it will work fine with stabilized Sony lenses.
Sony says it has also reduced shutter vibration by 50% compared to the A7R and the shutter now has a life expectancy of 500,000 shots – that's right up with the best professional DSLRs.
The original Sony A7R was impressive, but the specs of the A7R II are simply spectacular. The Sony A7R II will be available in August for $3,200 (about £2061, AU$4131).
