The 24.5MP full-frame sensor and 14fps mechanical burst capture richly detailed stills, while 273-point autofocus with Eye and Animal AF keeps subjects sharp even at the frame’s edges. It records 4K video up to 30fps with Log and RAW output, and the articulating touchscreen plus 3.7M-dot EVF provide flexible composition. This renewed model best suits beginner photographers and YouTube creators needing a capable full-frame hybrid for both high-resolution stills and polished video work.
