Rent the Sony a7R V in Canada — Sony’s resolution flagship, built for shooters who need maximum detail: landscape, studio, commercial, architecture and fine-art work. A 61MP sensor and AI-driven autofocus make it the choice when image quality comes first. Key points:
61MP full-frame back-illuminated Exmor R sensor; BIONZ XR with dedicated AI processing
AI Real-time Recognition AF across seven subject types; up to 8-stop in-body stabilisation
8K up to 24p and 4K up to 60p (10-bit, with a 1.24x crop); 16-bit RAW output
Pixel Shift Multi-Shooting for ultra-high-resolution composites; 9.44M-dot viewfinder
Our thoughts
"The a7R V is the one we reach for when resolution is the whole point — landscapes, architecture, studio and commercial work where you want every detail and room to crop hard. The 61MP files are stunning, the AI autofocus is a genuine leap for both stills and video, and the new viewfinder is the best Sony has put in an Alpha. The dual-tilt screen is also a quietly brilliant touch for awkward angles. Two practical notes: 61MP files are large, so plan for fast CFexpress Type A cards and plenty of storage, and the 8K/4K60 video comes with a 1.24x crop. If you need speed for sports or want a lighter all-rounder, the a7 V is the better fit — but for pure detail, this is our flagship."

The a7R V is the high-resolution specialist at 61MP — ideal for landscape, studio, architecture and commercial work, or anywhere you need to crop heavily. The a7 IV and a7 V (both 33MP) are lighter, faster all-rounders better suited to events, weddings and general hybrid work. Choose the a7R V when detail is the priority.
Both slots take a CFexpress Type A or UHS-II SD card. Because 61MP RAW files and 8K video are large, we recommend fast CFexpress Type A cards and bringing plenty of capacity. We can add cards to your order.
Yes — it shoots 8K up to 24p and 4K up to 60p in 10-bit, with S-Log3 and S-Cinetone, plus 16-bit RAW output. Just note that 8K and 4K 60p use a 1.24x crop, so factor that into your lens choice. For uncropped 4K, shoot at up to 30p.
No — the a7R V is rented as a body so you can choose the lenses that suit your shoot. Add Sony E-mount lenses to your order, and check the ‘Included’ tab for exactly what comes in the kit.
