New single burst shooting function
The all-new single-shot burst function captures even the fastest action scenes, like the moment a tennis racket hits the ball, by taking seven images in quick succession at a selectable speed of 90, 60, or 30 frames per second. Capture those crucial, hard-to-capture moments. It can also be used with the self-timer. Both JPEG and RAW image formats are supported.
Wide coverage and fast AF speed
The RX100 VII offers a total of 357 focal-plane phase-detection AF points, covering 68% of the frame. These are complemented by 425 contrast-detection AF points and the world’s fastest 0.02 s.
Real-time tracking for moving subjects
Real-time tracking uses subject recognition (AI) algorithms that rely on color, pattern (brightness), subject distance (depth), and facial and eye information to track moving subjects. Maintaining stable and consistent focus on a moving subject allows you to capture every important moment of the action in real time, whether you’re shooting still images or recording video.
