Japanese Grand Prix award: The Sony A7rV Camera of the Year

The 2023 camera of the year award did go to the Sony A7rV for the following reason:

The latest generation of the “R” series, which enables high-definition shooting even among Sony’s α7 series, adopts a class-leading effective 61 million-pixel CMOS sensor. It has received praise for significantly improving basic performance, such as autofocus performance and color reproduction, through the newly introduced “AI processing unit” and enhancing the image stabilization mechanism, making it easier to demonstrate the potential of a high-resolution camera in a wide range of shooting scenes. Additionally, comments have been received that the adoption of a 4-axis multi-angle LCD monitor that supports both tilt and vari-angle on the back of the camera has presented a new standard that meets the requirements of both still images and videos.
