Sony A7 II finally announced by Sony today, the new Sony A7 II comes with Sony home grown 5 axis image stabilization system, the camera also features improved firmware and auto-focus algorithm that minimizes the start-up time by 40% and improves the AF speed by 30%, now take a look at the major specification difference below…
The Sony A7 II will arrive 5 axis image stabilization and XAVC S video format, these are the two new things that added to the A7 II camera. The Sony A7 II camera features same resolution as of its predecessor Sony A7 camera and AF points are also same (117 Phase detect and 25 contrast detect), but due to the improved AF algorithm the new Sony A7 II takes 30% less time than the Sony A 7 camera to acquire AF.
The Sony A7 is bit heavier may be due to the built-in 5 axis image stabilization system
Verdict: We don’t find any major difference between the A7 II and A7 except the image stabilization, we also do hope that after few months Sony will bring firmware update to implement fast AF in A7 too. For current A7 users we recommend you to wait for Sony A7 III camera.
