Top-speed AF meets super zoom range
Time won't wait. Nor can you. To take your best shot at the apex of action, focus at top speed. Act upon instinct. Go with the flow. Be ready for the right moment. Then, move like lightning. Zoom way up to ultra-telephoto end. Shoot for it all. Stay sharp all the way. With so much power so well-conceived and composed, you can always take it easy.
What you can achieve is all in your hands.
Top performance assumes winning form in the RX10 IV -- the exemplary groundbreaking RX10 series camera from
Sony that concentrates a new wave of innovation within precision-crafted dimensions.
0.03-sec* Fast Hybrid AF
For the debut of Fast Hybrid AF in a RX10 series camera, Sony makes the system faster than ever. Achieving amazing 0.03-sec* autofocus response, the RX10 IV combines the speed/tracking performance of focal-plane phase-detection AF and the accuracy of contrast-detection AF. So it's easy to focus on anything —
even quick, unpredictable action that you don't want to miss.
315-point wide-area phase-detection AF coverage
The 315 phase-detection AF points cover approx. 65% of the image area of the camera. With such wide-area high-density autofocus coverage, you can accurately focus on and capture any subject in action — even a small, fast-moving subject that is usually difficult to focus on -- wherever it moves within the frame.
High-density Tracking AF Technology
With the RX10 IV, High-density Tracking AF Technology comes to the RX10 camera lineup. To achieve accurate, stable tracking performance, this advanced technology densely concentrates and activates AF points around a subject in motion. That keeps subjects in clear focus as they move within the shooting frame.
Continuous shooting at 24fps*1 with AF/AE tracking
To capture exactly the right moment, you can shoot continuously with AF/AE tracking at up to approx. 24fps (*1) for up to 249 (*2) frames. Also, the electronic viewfinder's accelerated display system response lets you view smoother video with reduced blackout and delay even in continuous shooting.

24-600mm* (25x optical) large-aperture zoom lens
The built-in ZEISS® Vario-Sonnar T* zoom lens features eight ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements, Sony's original AA (advanced aspherical) element, high contrast and sharp image quality out to images' edges, large aperture (F2.4-4) that makes the most of the 1.0-type image sensor's sensitivity, and close-up macro capability to shoot at up to 3cm (wide-end, 0.42x magnification) and 72cm (telephoto-end, 0.49x magnification) away from the subject.
Optical SteadyShot™
Optical image stabilization technology developed exclusively by Sony prevents image blurring that can occur from hand-held still and movie shooting, especially in low light or at the ultra-telephoto end of the zoom range up to
600mm (35mm equivalent). This stabilization is equivalent to a 4.5-step*- faster shutter speed, and ensures smooth, stable framing and shooting.
Advanced BIONZ X image processing engine
With its algorithm enhanced, the BIONZ X image processing engine now delivers superior subjective resolution, more realistic reproduction in every detail, and improved Area-specific Noise Reduction that's especially useful for
shooting dark areas at high sensitivities using fast shutter speeds. As a result, even during continuous shooting at up to 24fps, high-resolution images can be captured clearly at every instant of the recorded sequence.
