Outer sizes are exact, from the makers' dimensions. Shapes are drawn by us to show each body style; the dashed circle is the lens mount at its real diameter.
BurstThe fastest frames per second the maker quotes. Top speeds often use the electronic shutter and may limit autofocus. Higher helps for sports, wildlife and kids.40 fpsBEST30 fps
StabilizationIn-body stabilisation. Each stop lets you shoot at half the shutter speed without blur, so 8 stops means very steady handheld shots.8.5 stopsBEST6 stops
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 · 1/16000 elecElectronic only, 1/32000
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, vehicles, aircraft, trains · down to −6.5 EVPeople, animals, birds, vehicles, aircraft, trains · down to −9 EV
VIDEO
Max videoThe highest video resolution it records internally.7K8KBEST
Rolling shutterHow fast the sensor reads out, measured in lab tests. Slower readout bends fast-moving subjects and quick pans in video and electronic-shutter photos; under 10 ms is very good.14.3 ms · 4K full width, DPReview14.5 ms · 8K full width, CineD
Log profileA flat picture profile that keeps highlight and shadow detail for colour grading later.C-Log2/C-Log3N-Log
