The Sony A7IV is a full frame mirrorless camera with a full frame sensor (35.9 x 23.9mm).

The camera has a newly developed 33MP Exmor R BSI CMOS-sensor and BIONZ XR-beeldprocessor. These allow for more speed, better performance, better noise reduction and higher dynamic range (advertised 15 stops). Also the camera can record 4K 4:2:2 10-bit up to 60p.

In addition, the camera has Sony's Cinetone color profile which is known for its 'True-to-Life' skin colours and can record in S-log2 and S-log3, allowing for more control when color grading. Like most Sony mirrorless camera's, the camera has Real-Time Eye AF, Eye and Face Detection and Subject Touch Tracking. This makes the camera ideal for use on a gimbal and for Run and Gun shooters.

A unique feature of the camera is its 'Heat Map' function. With this function you can see where your focus is based on a 'Heat Map'.

Furthermore, the camera has one full size HDMI-input, one CFexpress Type A / SD (UHS-II) card slot, one SD/SDHC/SDXC (UHS-II) and one USB Type-c input through which you can charge the camera.

Finally, the camera only weighs 658 grams and the dimensions are 131.3 x 96.4 x79.8 mm.

Note: The Sony A7IV suffers from overheating when filming in 4K60P for extended periods in combination with dual card recording. You can counteract this to some extent by turning off the dual card recording feature and changing the auto off feature from normal to high.
