The monitor also helps in odd positions by tilting up 107° and down 41°.
The camera comes with full-frame 24.3-megapixel Exmor CMOS sensor, the sensor design both improves low-light operation and speeds up data throughout enabling fast high-resolution stills and FHD video recording. With the BIONZ X image processor these images can be produced at sensitivities up to ISO 51,200 and at a continuous 5 fps shooting rate. Five-axis SteadyShot INSIDE image stabilization has also been implemented compensating for vertical, horizontal, pitch, yaw and roll movements.
