Spec sheet
SENSORMegapixels and sensor size. Full-frame gathers more light than APS-C or Micro Four Thirds, for cleaner low-light shots and more background blur.61MPFull-frame
BURSTFrames per second while autofocus keeps tracking. Higher helps for sports, wildlife and kids.10 fpsFastest with autofocus
VIDEOThe highest video resolution it records internally.8KMax internal
IBISIn-body stabilisation. Each stop lets you shoot at half the shutter speed without blur, so 8 stops means very steady handheld shots.8 stopsIn-body
BATTERYShots per charge on the CIPA standard test, using the rear screen. Real-world numbers are often higher.530CIPA shots, rear screen

SensorResolution, size and build. Stacked sensors read out fastest, which helps fast action and cuts rolling-shutter wobble.61MP · Full-frame · BSI
Native ISOThe standard sensitivity range. Higher ISO lets you shoot in dimmer light, at the cost of more noise.100–32,000
ShutterFastest mechanical and electronic shutter speeds. The silent electronic shutter can freeze faster motion, but may bend fast subjects on slower sensors.1/8000 mech · 1/8000 elec
Flash syncThe fastest shutter speed you can use with a regular flash. Higher is better for flash outdoors in bright light.1/250 s
AutofocusWhat the camera recognises and tracks automatically, and how dark it can get before focus struggles (lower EV is better in low light).People, animals, birds, insects, vehicles, aircraft, trains · down to −4 EV
Video
Max resolutionThe highest resolution and frame rate it records internally. More than 4K gives room to crop or stabilise in editing.8K 25p
Best 4K frame rateThe fastest 4K frame rate. 60p and above lets you slow footage down smoothly, and 120p gives 5× slow motion.4K 60p
Crop at 4K 60pWhether 4K 60p uses the full sensor width. A crop makes your lens act longer, so wide shots get harder.1.2x crop
Colour depth10-bit records far more colour detail than 8-bit, so footage holds up when you grade it. Worth it if you edit video.10-bit 4:2:2
Log profileA flat picture profile that keeps highlight and shadow detail for colour grading later.S-Log2/S-Log3
Raw videoRaw keeps the most image data for editing, at much larger file sizes. Some cameras only record it to an external recorder.16-bit RAW over HDMI
Open gateRecords the whole sensor area, so you can crop the same clip to both widescreen and vertical video.No
Audio jacksA mic input for better sound, and a headphone jack to check what you are recording.Mic + headphone
HDMIFor an external monitor or recorder. Full-size HDMI is sturdier than micro HDMI.Full-size
Cooling fanA built-in fan lets the camera record for long stretches without overheating.No
Body & handling
ViewfinderElectronic viewfinder resolution and magnification. More dots and a bigger magnification give a sharper, larger view.9.44M-dot, 0.9×
Rear screenFully articulating screens flip to the front for vlogging; tilting screens are quicker for photos at waist or overhead height.Multi-angle
Card slotsTwo slots let you record a backup copy at the same time, which matters for paid work like weddings.2x CFexpress A/SD UHS-II
Weather sealingSeals against dust and light rain. Pair it with a sealed lens.Yes
USB-C powerCan run from a USB-C power bank while shooting, not just charge the battery.Yes
BatteryThe battery model, for buying spares.NP-FZ100
