Sony A7R VI Arrives With 66.8MP Sensor and Versatile 8K Video Capability

Sony has unveiled the A7R VI, its latest flagship high-resolution full-frame camera featuring a 66.8-megapixel sensor.

These upgrades enable a wider range of shooting scenarios, including fast-moving sports, action photography, and 8K video capture.
