Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Sony Alpha 7R V is number two in this guide and the most expensive camera in it, at £2,649.00. The listing's own title calls it a Renewed unit rather than a new one, so the highest price here buys a renewed body; the page says nothing about what the renewal covers, or about warranty terms. Where its numbers do line up is resolution: a bullet, the effective still resolution field and the rear webcam resolution field all say 61 MP — unlike the Alpha 7 IV elsewhere in this guide, whose table gives the same figure as "33 Pixels".

Where the Alpha 7R V's sheet goes crooked is elsewhere. Its stabilisation field reads "Digital", while a reviewer on the same page describes "outstanding image stabilization"; the table never mentions sensor-shift. The ISO fields give an expanded minimum of 50 and no ceiling at all, while a reviewer talks about noise at 20,000 ISO. And the star breakdown adds up to 100 ratings when the listing states 62. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing — its spec table, its bullets, its price and its customer reviews — and not from any test of our own.

“AI focus on selected subject targets, superb Landscape camera, magical portraits, whopping dynamic range, outstanding image stabilization, and it has a fully articulated touch screen. Resolution permits extensive cropping and noise is well managed at 20,000 ISO. My dream camera!”
