Sony announced its high-end full-frame mirrorless cameras - the Alpha 7 and the Alpha 7R at an event in New Delhi today. Announced globally last month, these will be the flagship mirrorless cameras in the Sony mirrorless family with prices starting at Rs 94,990 for the Alpha 7 and Rs 1,24,990 for the Alpha 7R.
The Sony Alpha 7 comes with a 24.3MP Exmor CMOS sensor
The Alpha 7 sports a 24.3MP full-frame Exmor CMOS sensor whereas the Alpha 7R has 36.4MP Exmor CMOS sensor. The Alpha 7 comes with one 28-70mm (SEL2870) full frame lens in the kit. The other difference between the two cameras is the absence of an anti-aliasing filter on the Alpha 7R, which has become a trend with cameras these days. Both the cameras come with the BIONZ X image processor which Sony claims is around three times faster than the older BIONZ image processor.
