Sidney Diongzon: “Dear Sony Please Add THESE 3 Features to the Sony A7V”

Share

Sidney Diongzon would like the Sony A7V to include the following new features:

  • Audio-only recording mode with 32-bit float audio — allows recording just audio in-camera without video, useful for voiceovers and maintaining consistent sound without external recorders.
  • Larger, higher-quality 4-inch screen — similar to the Nikon ZR display, combined with Sony’s four-axis flippy-tilt mechanism, ideally OLED or using Bravia display technology for better color and brightness.
  • Built-in internal memory (64 GB–128 GB) — provides backup or emergency storage when SD cards are full or forgotten, and can be used for reference photos or videos.

I am 99,999% certain none of these will make it into the Sony A7V…but maybe on cameras coming  in 1-2 years from now this would make sense?

UPDATE: After the Canon R6III launch he posted this:

100% Confirmed: Sony A7V Launching Early December with 33MP Sensor and New Leaked Images!

Share

The past horse I got some additional info:

  • Now I am 100% certain the Sony A7V will be announced in very early December (Dec 5?)
  • 100% confirmed the sensor is 33MP (unclear if same or updated version of the Sony A7IV sensor)
  • Improved EVF (unclear about resolution)
  • I got two more leaked images (see below)

Sony A7V rumored specs:

  • 33MP sensor (unclear if same of the A7IV or tweaked or new partially stacked)
  • improved fps rate (15fps?)
  • 8 stops IBIS
  • new AI chip like the Sony A1II
  • 4 way fully articulating screen
  • 2x dual Type A SD slot
  • no C5 button
  • improved EVF (5.6m dot?)
  • Same Sony A7rV body design.
  • price close to $3000
  • Announcement in early December
  • Limited batch ships before Christmas

Three lenses are on Sony’s roadmap:

  • 100-400mm f/4.0 GM
  • 100-400mm G (variable aperture)
  • ultra wide angle f/2.0 GM zoom

So that’s it for now! I hope we will soon get the definitive answer about the sensor…is it new or not?

🔥 Sony A7V Coming Early December — New Leaked Image Revealed!

Share

Today we finally got the new Canon R6 III, but in just one month we’ll see the Sony A7V!

According to two sources, Sony will announce the camera in early December. A small initial batch is expected to ship before Christmas, while most photographers will likely receive theirs in January.

I also received a new leaked image showing the front of the camera. As expected, there’s no C5 button, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the camera won’t include pre-capture functionality.

There’s no confirmation yet about any new lenses being unveiled alongside the A7V, but three new Sony lenses are reportedly scheduled for release in the coming months:

  • 100-400mm f/4.0 GM
  • 100-400mm G (variable aperture)
  • ultra wide angle f/2.0 GM zoom

The sources haven’t shared any specifications yet, but here’s what we’ve gathered over the past month:

  • 33MP sensor (unclear if same of the A7IV or new partially stacked)
  • improved Fps rate (15fps?)
  • 8 stops IBIS
  • new AI chip like the Sony A1II
  • 4 way fully articulating screen
  • 2x dual Type A SD slot
  • no C5 button
  • Same Sony A7rV body design.
  • price close to $3000
  • Announcement in early November
  • Limited batch ships before Christmas

So that’s it for now! I hope we will soon get the definitive answer about the sensor…is it new or not?
