Sony A7 V Announced – 33 MP Semi-Stacked Sensor & 30 FPS

You are here: Home / News / Sony A7 V Announced – 33 MP Semi-Stacked Sensor & 30 FPS
Last updated: December 2, 2025 / Published: December 2, 2025 by Timothy Mayo - Leave a Comment

Just a little over 4 years ago Sony announced the A7 IV. Now, just in time for Christmas 2025, we have its successor, the Sony A7 V.

Sony A7 V

The A7 V features a new 33-megapixel semi-stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor, 30 fps black out free continuous shooting with one second RAW+JPG pre-capture, and 4K 120p (Super 35) or 4K 60p (full-frame) video in 10-bit 4:2:2.

It’s already available to pre-order and the lucky few who get their orders in early may receive it before Christmas, unless you are on Santa’s naughty list!

It will cost $2,898 in the US, £2,799 in the UK, or 2,999 EUR in Europe.

About Timothy Mayo

I started Alpha Shooters back in 2017 to share my own experiences as a photographer shooting with Sony Alpha cameras, lenses and accessories.

I enjoy wildlife photography the most but will happily point my camera at pretty much anything.

As well as this blog you’ll also find a community forum which provides members with a friendly and safe place to share images and ask questions.

You can find out more about my story here or follow me on Instagram if you wish.

I also have a YouTube Channel but haven’t published much content recently due to the demands of my two and four year old boys.
