5-axis image stabilization
The 5-axis image stabilization system is fine-tuned for
high-resolution image sensors. It accurately compensates for five types of camera shake that can compromise handheld shooting of the camera's 42.4-megapixel
images, so you can zoom in on faraway subjects, shoot
close-ups and capture night scenes with minimal camera
shake blur. Camera shake compensation is equivalent to
using a 4.5-step* faster shutter speed, allowing you to
take advantage of a wider range of shutter speeds.

Compatibility with wide-ranging mountable lenses
5-axis image stabilization lets you enjoy unparalleled
handheld shooting freedom with more of your favorite

High-bit-rate XAVC S format* for 4K recording
XAVC S format now supports 4K recording at maximum
100Mbps bit rate as well as Full HD recording at 50Mbps,
so the
7R II can capture movies filled with finely detailed
movement. For efficient handling, XAVC S files are minimized in size using Long GOP data compression, and contained in the widely compatible MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format.
* A class 10 or higher SDXC memory card is required to record movies in the XAVC S format. UHS Speed Class 3 is also required for recording at 100Mbps.

Ready for the long run
XGA OLED Tru-Finder makes every view a vision
With the world's highest* magnification at 0.78x (full-display diagonal
field of view: approx. 38.5 degrees;
live-view-display diagonal field of
view: approx. 37.2 degrees) among
digital still camera viewfinders and
a new four-lens optical system with
double-sided aspherical elements,
* The vi ewf inder magnification is approx . 0.78x (wi th 50mm lens at infinit y, -1m-1). As of J une 20 15 base d on Sony research.
the XGA OLED Tru-Finder provides
views of cutting-edge clarity and
contrast throughout the entire
width and length of the display.
Better yet, ZEISS T* Coating ensures
absolutely minimal surface reflection. As an electronic viewfinder,
the Tru-Finder can instantly show
how exposure compensation, white
balance and other selected settings
affect image appearance including
background blur, and faithfully depicts the extraordinary 42.4-megapixel images, complementing the
camera’s powerful high-resolution
performance.
Tough magnesium alloy body
Designed for solid reliability and
steady handling, the
7R II's compact body is built to withstand
the rigors of shooting in the field,
thanks to an internal structure and
top, front, and rear covers all made
of strong, rigid magnesium alloy.
Meticulously crafted controls
Controls are refined for intuitive
operation and immediate adjustment even while looking through the
viewfinder. The front and rear dials
have been particularly refined and
positioned for easier, more efficient
handling and turning. Also, a new
mode dial locking mechanism prevents inadvertent changes of shooting mode at all times.
Front dial

Enhanced grip and shutter button
The grip is refined in shape and
height to support a more secure
grasp of the camera even when a
large lens is mounted. This also contributes to more confident operation of the shutter button and dials.
Moreover, the shutter button has
been reshaped and shifted forward
to enable more natural shooting
with less camera shake.
Operation of the
7R II can be
powered via USB connection to a PC
or mobile battery. This conserves
the camera’s batter y, allowing you
extended use of the camera without
worrying that the battery will run
out. When the camera is turned off,
the battery can be charged via the
same connection.
Convenient tiltable LCD screen
The LCD screen tilts upward approx.
107 degrees and downward approx. 41 degrees to accommodate
wide-ranging shooting angles. This
flexibility combines with compact
mobility to greatly expand your
shooting options. Viewing is also

Easy button customization
You can assign any of 64 functions*
to any of 10 customizable buttons
as you like. This makes operation
more intuitive, quick and easy, and
is extra-convenient for accessing such functions as starting and
stopping of movie recording and
switching between viewfinder and
monitor.

Robust lens mountPower supply via USBAnti-dust system and coatingDust and moisture resistance
The strength and rigidity of the
body and lens mount have been
enhanced to provide an especially
solid foundation for mounting large,
heavy lenses such as super telephoto lenses and those preferred
for movie shooting.
Enjoy carefree shooting in tough environments, thanks to comprehensive
dust and moisture resistance measures that help prevent water and dust
from entering the body. These measures include sealing around the buttons and dials, as well as a protective
double-layered structure that tightly
interlocks panels and components.
Note: This camera is desi gned for optimal dust and mois-
ture resistance, but is not wate rproof or spla shproof.
To keep your photos blemish-free,
a special anti-static coating on the
surface of the optical filter suppresses the attachment of both dry and
moist dust particles when changing
lenses. An anti-dust mechanism also
vibrates at high speed when you
select Cleaning Mode, to remove any
particles adhering to the filter.
