Notes on 43 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1Sony a1 II, Release date: Announced 19 November 2024; first retail availability was December 2024.
  2. 2Canon EOS R50, Launch price: US RRP at launch as listed by Trusted Reviews; the page does not state whether it is body-only.
  3. 3Sony a7 V, High resolution pixel-shift mode: No in-camera pixel shift; Sony's Extended Hi-Res merges burst frames later in its desktop software.
  4. 4Sony a1 II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: 4- or 16-shot pixel shift composites are merged with Sony's Imaging Edge Desktop PC software.
  5. 5Sony a7 V, Native ISO maximum: Refers to standard still image shooting prior to ISO expansion.
  6. 6Sony a7 V, In-body image stabilization: Measured at the center with an FE 50mm F1.2 GM lens mounted per CIPA 2024 standards with long exposure NR off.
  7. 7Sony a1 II, In-body image stabilization: 8.5 stops is the CIPA centre rating; 7.0 stops at the periphery.
  8. 8Canon EOS R50, In-body image stabilization: No in-body stabilisation; shake control relies on lens IS or Movie Digital IS.
  9. 9Sony RX100 VII, In-body image stabilization: Sony rates the optical (lens-shift) SteadyShot at 4.0 stops at the 200 mm telephoto end, not a body-only CIPA figure.
  10. 10Sony RX100 VII, Aspect ratios: 4:3, 16:9 and 1:1 sizes are in-camera crop modes over the native 3:2 sensor area.
  11. 11Sony a7 V, Continuous shooting (mechanical): Maximum continuous shooting speed achieved using mechanical shutter in Hi+ mode.
  12. 12Sony RX100 VII, Continuous shooting (mechanical): The 'Hi' burst setting is electronic-shutter only; 10 fps ('Mid') is the fastest mechanical-shutter continuous rate.
  13. 13Sony a7 V, Continuous shooting (electronic): Maximum continuous shooting speed achieved using electronic shutter in Hi+ mode.
  14. 14Sony RX100 VII, Continuous shooting (electronic): Blackout-free 20 fps continuous includes AF/AE tracking; the separate 'Single Burst' mode takes 7 shots at up to 90 fps.
  15. 15Sony a1 II, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-capture buffers between 0.03 s and 1 s of frames before full shutter press.
  16. 16Canon EOS R50, Pre-burst capture duration: No pre-capture mode appears anywhere in Canon's official R50 specifications, so it is treated as absent.
  17. 17Sony RX100 VII, AF subject detection: Maker names only human and animal recognition (Eye AF / Real-time Tracking); no bird or vehicle categories are listed.
  18. 18Sony a7 V, 4K max frame rate: Maximum 4K frame rate is available in XAVC HS 4K 4:2:0 10-bit mode.
  19. 19Sony a1 II, 4K max frame rate: 4K 100p/120p recording uses a 1.1x crop.
  20. 20Sony RX100 VII, Video codecs: Both XAVC S and AVCHD recording use MPEG-4 AVC/H.264; there is no HEVC/H.265 option.
  21. 21Sony a7 V, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K 120p needs an APS-C/Super 35 crop; the full sensor width tops out at 4K 60p.
  22. 22Sony a1 II, 4K max frame rate (full width): Full-width 4K tops out at 59.94p; 4K 100/120p requires a 1.1x crop.
  23. 23Sony a1 II, Raw video recording: 16-bit RAW video can only be output over HDMI to an external recorder; no internal RAW recording.
  24. 24Canon EOS R50, Raw video recording: Canon lists only MP4 recording with H.264 or HEVC; no raw video is offered internally or externally.
  25. 25Sony RX100 VII, Raw video recording: Sony's movie-format list contains only XAVC S (H.264) and AVCHD; no raw video output is offered.
  26. 26Canon EOS R50, Video bit depth: Standard Rec.709 recording is 8-bit; 10-bit output requires HDR PQ to be switched on.
  27. 27Canon EOS R50, Log profile support: No Canon Log profile; HDR PQ (a PQ gamma curve) is available instead, which is not a log curve.
  28. 28Sony RX100 VII, Log profile support: S-Log2, S-Log3 and HLG log gammas are selectable via Picture Profile presets PP1–PP10.
  29. 29Sony a7 V, Viewfinder magnification: Measured with a 50mm lens focused at infinity at -1 m⁻¹.
  30. 30Sony RX100 VII, Screen articulation: Screen tilts up about 180° for selfies and down about 90°; it does not swing outward like a fully articulated display.
  31. 31Sony a7 V, Battery life: Measured using the LCD monitor under standard CIPA test conditions.
  32. 32Sony a1 II, Battery life: CIPA rating is 520 shots per charge on the rear LCD; 420 shots with the viewfinder.
  33. 33Canon EOS R50, Battery life: CIPA test with the supplied LP-E17 in power-saving mode; viewfinder shooting is rated at about 310 shots.
  34. 34Sony RX100 VII, Battery life: 260 shots assume default monitor settings; Sony also lists 310 shots when 'Auto Monitor Off' is set to 2 s.
  35. 35Sony a1 II, Weather sealing: Sony specifies dust- and moisture-resistant sealing; no formal IP rating is published.
  36. 36Canon EOS R50, Weather sealing: Canon's own spec sheet also lists water/dust resistance as not provided, so treat the body as unsealed.
  37. 37Canon EOS R50, Weight: Black body with battery and card per CIPA; the white version is 376 g with battery and card.
  38. 38Sony a7 V, Depth: Overall maximum depth including the viewfinder eyepiece is 82.4 mm.
  39. 39Sony a1 II, Depth: Sony also lists 72.8 mm depth measured from grip to monitor, excluding the grip protrusion.
  40. 40Canon EOS R50, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging works with the supplied LP-E17; unauthenticated third-party batteries may not charge.
  41. 41Sony RX100 VII, USB charging & power delivery: In-body USB charging and power supply work over the Multi/Micro-USB (USB 2.0) terminal — not USB-C.
  42. 42Canon EOS R50, Minimum operating temperature: Rated operating range is 0–40 °C at up to 85% humidity.
  43. 43Canon EOS R50, Headphone port: Canon's full port list covers USB-C, mic-in, HDMI micro and the shoe only — no headphone jack.
