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.
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.APS-CFull-frame
StabilizationIn-body stabilisation. Each stop lets you shoot at half the shutter speed without blur, so 8 stops means very steady handheld shots.7 stops7.5 stopsBEST
ShutterFastest mechanical and electronic shutter speeds. The silent electronic shutter can freeze faster motion, but may bend fast subjects on slower sensors.1/4000 mech · 1/32000 elec1/8000 mech · 1/8000 elec
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 −7 EVdown to −10 EV
VIDEO
Max videoThe highest video resolution it records internally.6KBEST4K
Crop at 4K 60pWhether 4K 60p uses the full sensor width. A crop makes your lens act longer, so wide shots get harder.—1.5x crop
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.20.3 ms · 4K full width, CineD—
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 4:2:210-bit 4:2:0
Log profileA flat picture profile that keeps highlight and shadow detail for colour grading later.F-Log/F-Log2N-Log
