Sony a7 a7CR Silver
The 61-megapixel full-frame Exmor R BSI sensor with BIONZ XR processing captures 8fps bursts and 10-bit 4K60p video with S-Log3 and user LUTs. Its 240.8-megapixel pixel shift multi-shooting mode delivers extreme studio detail, while 7-stop IBIS steadies handheld work. This camera suits studio and landscape photographers who prioritize ultra-high resolution stills over portability, given its low travel score of 35.
