Sony A1 II Announced, BUT....

Sony A7 V Rumors: A 44MP Sensor and AI Power – What You Need to Know!

Let’s talk about what we know so far regarding the Sony A7V camera, We were expecting its arrival a bit early in November, but Sony disappointed us with the Announcement of the A1 Mk II. The Sony A7 V camera is overdue for an announcement, but despite that you have to wait a few months more, it looks like Sony is updating their cameras strictly according to their update schedule.

If they strictly follow their schedule, the next announcement from Sony will most likely be a cinema camera, probably the Sony FX3 Mark II, or the Sony A7S IV camera.

But when will the Sony A7V camera arrive? According to the current rumors, the Sony A7V camera is expected to arrive on or before April 2025 (90% chance). However, if delayed, the announcement could be stretched to October 2025.

As for the core specifications I was expecting from the Sony A7V camera, the arrival of a 33-megapixel stacked sensor, the presence of an AI chip, and a new generation of the BIONZ X image processor. But, Recent rumors suggest that Sony is testing prototypes with the IMX366 sensor, which has a 44-megapixel resolution. The good thing about this sensor is that despite being a non-stacked sensor, the readout speed is very fast. The camera will be paired with Sony’s latest BIONZ X image processor and AI chip. This is not the first time we have gotten hints of a 44 Mp sensor, check here Unbelievable! Sony A7 V May Feature a 44-Megapixel Sensor

This looks impressive if the camera arrives with Sony’s latest IMX366 sensor. It will surely raise the competition level. Again, the model will have a decent price increase, and it will likely fall in the same category as the existing Canon R5 camera.

Sony A7 V or Something Else ? Sony Nov 2024 Announcement

Updated information we do not have confirmation that the Sony A1 Mk II camera is coming on NOV 19-20, take a look at the latest set of information we have

The camera we are expecting to Arrive from Sony

  1. Sony A7 V [Early 2025 with a 44.5Mp sensor as per rumors]
  2. Sony FX3 II
  3. Sony A7S IV [Sony next announcement after A1 Mark II]
  4. Sony ALpha A II [Confirmed for Sony Nov 19 announcement ]

According to the latest, Sony is about to announce a brand new camera at the end of November. By the way, we told you about the NOV announcement back on September 11; check this out. So everyone is curious about “what it will be?” What we truly expect from Sony right now, at this very moment, is the announcement of the Sony A7 IV successor, the Sony A7 V camera.

After the Nikon Z6 Mark III announcement, we are also concerned that Canon’s R6 Mark III, with the R3-stacked sensor, will surely come next year as per rumor mills. So, a new generation of Sony A7 IV competitors either arrived or is about to arrive, and among all of Sony’s full-frame cameras right now, the Sony A7 IV is the most outdated Alpha Camera. Still waiting to get a dedicated AI chip, which even Sony A6700 has inside it, that upscales the overall still and video AF performance of the camera.

Even if we follow Sony’s announcement pattern, the A7 IV camera was announced back in October 2021, and since then, Sony has updated almost all the models in its current lineup. So here’s a list of cameras that we expect may arrive from Sony at the end of November or December, or maybe sometime in 2025. But out of all these cameras, we personally think the A7 V is the most important, and Sony should release it as soon as possible.

Let me know in the coments which camera you’re most excited to see ?

Fuji X-M5 vs Sony ZV-E10 II

Compare the Sony ZV-E10 II camera against the recently announced Fuji X-M5. We will be comparing the 10 major differences between the two. Not only that, but these are the differences we have sorted out to make it a bit easier to understand instead of putting all comparisons in front of you in a single table. So we have distributed them into 10 different types of tables, so let’s begin.

See more comparisons – Fuji X-M5 vs Sony A6700

1. Camera Design Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Lens Mount Sony E FUJIFILM X
Built-In Flash No No
Display 3″ Articulating Touchscreen LCD 3″ 3-Way Tilting Touchscreen LCD
Body Material Plastic Body Magnesium Alloy

In the first section, where we compare the camera design and all the details, you can see that the Fuji X-M5 is slightly smaller and a bit lighter than the Sony ZV-E10 II. The biggest advantage I see with the X-M5 is the weather-sealed design and a more durable body

2. Body Weight and Dimensions Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Body Weight (with battery & media) 377 g 355 g
Dimensions (W x H x D) 114.8 x 67.5 x 54.2 mm 111.9 x 66.6 x 38 mm

3. Ports Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
HDMI Output Micro-HDMI Micro-HDMI
Audio Input 1x 3.5mm Microphone Input 1x 3.5mm Microphone Input
Audio Output 1x 3.5mm Headphone Output 1x 3.5mm Headphone Output
USB-C USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Data & Power) USB-C (Data)

The next is the ports comparison. More or less, both have similar kinds of portsmicro HDMI input, headphone, and output port, so connectivity-wise both are quite similar to each other.

4. Camera Sensor Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Sensor Size APS-C (23.3 x 15.5 mm) APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm)
Effective Resolution 26 MP 26.1 MP
Sensor Crop Factor 1.5x 1.5x

Let’s compare the internal core specifications of the cameras. We have the 26 MP X-Trans sensor on the Fuji side, while the Sony has a 24 MP Bayer pattern BSI CMOS sensor. More or less, we will get similar image quality from both cameras.

No, neither of the cameras has any mechanical stabilization inside them for stills, so you have to be careful while using these cameras.

5. Autofocus Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Autofocus Points (Photo) 759 Phase Detection 425 Phase Detection
Autofocus Sensitivity -3 to +20 EV -7 to +7 EV
Autofocus Modes Auto, Continuous, Single, Manual Continuous, Single, Manual

The autofocus system of both cameras is super awesome. Still, again, since Sony and Canon are leading in autofocus tracking, as well as if you compare the number of phase-detect autofocus points, the Sony ZV-E10 II has 759 AF points, while the X-M5 remains limited to 425. So, more or less, the tracking performance coming straight out of the Sony camera will be more usable and reliable compared to the Fuji X-M5.

6. Image Stabilization Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Image Stabilization (Photo) No No
Image Stabilization (Video) Digital, Active IS, Gyro Digital IS

On the other side, we have better autofocus sensitivity in the Fuji X-M5, which means the ability to lock focus in backlit situations is better with the X-M5. But again, AF sensitivity doesn’t help much with tracking performance. So both are completely different in terms of tracking and sensitivity. Generally, we rely more on tracking performance rather than sensitivity.

7. Continuous Shooting Speed Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Max Continuous Shooting 11 fps (Photo) 30 fps (Photo with electronic shutter)
Max Frames in Burst 59 (RAW) / 1000 (JPEG) 23 (RAW) / 128 (JPEG)

The X-M5 offers 30 fps continuous shooting with the electronic shutter but with some crop. If I select the uncropped mode, the speed drops to 20 fps, which is still better than the Sony ZV-E10 II’s 11 fps continuous shooting mode.

8. Video Resolution Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
4K Video 3840 x 2160 at 60 fps 6240 x 4160 at 30 fps
Full HD Video 1920 x 1080 at 120 fps 1920 x 1080 at 240 fps
Video Bit Depth 10-Bit 10-Bit

Before you come to a decision that you are going to buy a camera with 6.2K resolution, you must first look towards your own personal requirements. If your personal requirements fulfill with 4K recording up to 60 frames per second, then without a doubt, a camera with more than 60fps mode is enough for you. But if you are a short filmmaker or someone who likes to get an open gate video in F-Log2 mode and then later on edit in your editing software, then you should buy the Fuji X-M5 camera. Otherwise, if you are a YouTube content creator or create Instagram Reels, then there is no need to buy a camera with 6K open gate recording.

To be very clear, the Fuji X-M5 does not have the same autofocus tracking performance as the Sony ZV-E10 II.

9. Codecs and Bitrates Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Codecs H.264, H.265, XAVC S H.264, H.265, AVC-LongG
Bitrates 100 to 600 Mb/s 8 to 200 Mb/s

10. Extra Video Features Comparison

Feature Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
Log Profile Sony S-Log3, S-Cinetone FUJIFILM F-Log, F-Log 2
Slow/Fast Motion Yes Yes
Recording Limit No Limit 50 Minutes (4K) (Unlimited in 4k LP low Quality)

Sony ZV-E10 Mark II camera, despite the fact that the camera doesn’t have a 6.2K open gate recording, gives you a bitrate option of 600 Mbps, whereas a Fuji X-M5 camera with 6.2K open gate recording limits the bitrate to 200 Mbps. So there is a very simple math calculation: more bitrate means more color coming into your footage.

Another big noticeable difference before we jump to the limitations we have to face with each of the cameras is that the Fuji X-M5 in 4K has a recording limit of 50 minutes. Now, the 50-minute recording can only be extended when you are using an LP mode in 4K, which degrades the quality of 4K recording, but it allows you to record for more than an hour. So you have to decide that if you are into podcasting, then select your camera wisely.

10. Video Recording Time Limit and Known Limitations

Feature/ Limitation Sony ZV-E10 II Fuji X-M5
4K Video Recording Time Limit No official time limit (subject to thermal control) No official time limit   (4K) (4k Lp low-quality unlimited recording)
Full HD Video Time Limit No official time limit No official time limit
Thermal Management Auto shut-off based on temperature settings (standard or high) Thermal control to avoid overheating (cut-off)
Battery Life (Video) Approx. 80 minutes (continuous recording) Approx. 60 minutes (4K)
Overheating Issues Rare in typical conditions May occur during extended 4K recording sessions
Slow-Motion Recording Limit No official limit (depends on settings and battery life) Approx. 3 minutes (240 fps Full HD)
Continuous Autofocus in Video Yes, with Eye and Object Tracking Yes, with Eye Detection and Fast AF
Internal Recording Bit Depth 10-Bit Internal recording 10-Bit internal recording
External Recording 4K 60fps via HDMI output (10-Bit) 4K 30fps via HDMI output (10-Bit)
Rolling Shutter (4K) Moderate at 4K 30 fps Moderate at 4K 30 fps

Conclusion and Recommendation

Category Recommended Camera Reason
Content Creator Sony ZV-E10 II Fast autofocus and good video quality for engaging content.
Reels Creator Sony ZV-E10  II Ideal for quick, easy short-form video creation.
Short Filmmaker Fuji X-M5 Superior image quality and advanced features for cinematic films.
Daily Life Vlogger Sony ZV-E10  II Compact and user-friendly for spontaneous vlogging.

For Photographers

You can buy any one you like since both of them missing EVF and feature the same resolution sensor, but the Sony ZV-E10 offers a better handgrip whereas the Fuji X-M5 is more vlogging-oriented, without a doubt the Sony ZV-E10 II AF tracking performance is better so you can consider that also, on the other side we have film-simulation modes from Fuji which is being loved by many photographers worldwide.
