The type of viewfinder that the camera has.
weather-sealed (splashproof)
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
The device is protected with extra seals to prevent failures caused by dust, raindrops, and water splashes.
screen resolution

921.6k dots

921.6k dots

A higher screen resolution provides a sharper image, making it easier to review your photos.
EVF resolution

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Sony Alpha a7 III)

An electronic viewfinder (EVF) with a higher resolution provides a sharper image, producing a view comparable in quality with the one displayed on an optical viewfinder.
Has a built-in focus motor
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
The focus motor moves the lens in order to autofocus. For system cameras, having a focus motor in the camera's body allows you to use a wide range of lenses, including lenses which do not have their own focus motor. For compact cameras, a focus motor is usually built-in.
Has a flip-out screen
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
Flip-out screens can be useful for tricky shots.
With 100% coverage, you can compose the image correctly when you capture the photo. With less than full coverage, you may have to crop your photos afterward to get them looking perfect.
The bigger the screen size is, the better the user experience.

Optics

sensor size

Full frame

Full frame

One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.
lens mount

Sony E

The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
maximum light sensitivity

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Sony A7C)

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Sony Alpha a7 III)

With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.
maximum expanded ISO

204800ISO

204800ISO

Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.
has sensor shift stabilization
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
With sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera. This means the image will be stabilised regardless of what lens is being used.
Fast continuous shooting is useful for catching action shots.
has AF tracking
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.

Videography

video recording (main camera)

2160 x 30fps

2160 x 30fps

The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
Has phase-detection autofocus for videos
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
A phase-detection autofocus system is faster than a contrast detection autofocus system. Even when recording scenes with a lot of fast movements, the videos are sharp and clear.
has continuous autofocus when recording movies
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
has a microphone input
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
A microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.
has a socket for a 3.5 mm audio jack
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
With a standard mini jack socket, you can use the device with most headphones.
has a stereo microphone
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
A stereo microphone allows to record audio files or movies in stereo without an external microphone.
Has timelapse function
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
A timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.
movie bitrate

100Mbps

100Mbps

The higher the movie recording bitrate the better the movie quality with more and crispier details and less compression artifacts.
number of microphones

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Sony A7C)

2

More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.

Battery

The better the dynamic range the system captures a wider number of values from dark to light leading to more details in low and highlights. Source: DxOMark.
Has dual card slots
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
It has two memory card slots, allowing you to store more photos without switching cards. This is particularly useful on long shoots when you need more space.
shoots raw
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
A raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. Raw files are so named because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.
supports lossless compressed raw
Sony A7C
Sony Alpha a7 III
It is capable of shooting stills in a lossless compressed raw format. This has all the advantages of shooting raw, while taking up much less storage space. The smaller file size also allows quicker read/write speeds.
