AI-powered Real-time Recognition AF and High-speed Performance with a 24-600mm*1 Zoom.
SAN DIEGO, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics announces the RX10 V, the fifth generation of its RX10 all-in-one camera series. A single body covers wide-angle to super-telephoto through a large-aperture ZEISS® Vario-Sonnar T* 24-600mm*1 (25x optical zoom) F2.4-4.0 lens.
The RX10 V keeps the series' resolution, super-telephoto reach, and integrated lens design, and adds AI-powered Real-time Recognition AF (auto focus) for accurate subject identification. Paired with blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30 fps*2 (frames per second) with full 60 fps/sec. AF/AE (auto exposure) tracking, it holds focus on fast, unpredictable subjects. A 20.1 megapixels (approximately effective) 1.0-type stacked Exmor RS™ CMOS sensor and BIONZ XR™ processing engine drive both stills and up to 4K 120p*3 video, covering a wide variety of scenarios spanning from everyday moments to wildlife to school sports. The large aperture and 1.0-type sensor render soft, natural background blur.
The RX10 V borrows its button layout and grip design from the α™ (Alpha™) mirrorless series for intuitive control. A larger*4 Quad-VGA OLED electronic viewfinder shows fine detail clearly in bright sun or indoors, helping you compose precisely. The Z-series NP-FZ100 battery extends still shooting to approximately 630 shots*5, roughly 50% more than the previous model*4.
"The RX10 series camera became a cult classic because it is a joy to shoot with in real life scenarios, and its range is unparalleled in a compact camera body. With the camera's fifth generation we are bringing valuable features from our Alpha line to make the RX10 V an unbeatable choice for any passionate wildlife, birding, or sports photographer," said Yang Cheng, Vice President of Imaging Solutions, Sony Electronics.
Pricing and Availability: The RX10 V will be available for a suggested retail price of $2,299.99 US / $2,899.99 CAD from August 2026.
