  14. 14Sony a1 II, 4K max frame rate (full width): Full-width 4K tops out at 59.94p; 4K 100/120p requires a 1.1x crop.
  15. 15Sony a6700, 4K max frame rate (full width): Full-width 4K tops out at 60p; 120p 4K uses a crop.
  16. 16Sony a1 II, Raw video recording: 16-bit RAW video can only be output over HDMI to an external recorder; no internal RAW recording.
  17. 17Sony RX100 VII, Raw video recording: Sony's movie-format list contains only XAVC S (H.264) and AVCHD; no raw video output is offered.
