A Review of the Sony a7R V Mirrorless Camera for Landscape Photography

The Sony a7R V offers the highest resolution available in a full frame camera, tons of dynamic range, built-in focus stacking, and a range of other features that make it a strong candidate as the best 35mm mirrorless camera for landscape photography. Can it live up to that in practice? This fantastic video review takes a look at what you can expect. 

Coming to you from Mads Peter Iversen, this great video review takes a look at the Sony a7R V mirrorless camera for landscape photography work. Though the a7R V uses the same 61-megapixel sensor from the a7R IV, it comes with a nice range of upgrades and new features, including: 

  • Quicker and more accurate autofocus system
  • Better subject recognition capabilities 
  • Improved menu system
  • Top-level image stabilization for working without a tripod
  • Better viewfinder
  • Motion compensation in Pixel Shift mode for extremely high-resolution photos
  • Reduced resolution raw sizes for shooting 26- and 15-megapixel files downsampled from 61 megapixels when full resolution is not needed, reducing storage and processing requirements 

Altogether, the a7R V looks like a fantastic option for landscape photographers who want a top-of-the-line tool. Check out the video above for Iversen's full thoughts on the camera.
