Lens and Sensor
The RX10 V (DSC-RX10M5) carries over the fixed 24-600mm (35mm equivalent) F2.4-4.0 ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* lens from earlier RX10 models, built with eight ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements, including two aspherical ED elements. Close focusing goes down to 3cm at the wide end (0.42x magnification) and 72cm at the telephoto end (0.49x magnification).
Behind the lens is a 1.0-type Exmor RS stacked backside-illuminated CMOS sensor rated at 20.1 effective megapixels (20.9MP total). The stacked design speeds up signal processing, which feeds into the camera’s burst and AF performance. Sensitivity runs from ISO 100-12800 (stills), expandable down to ISO 64.
Processor and Autofocus
Image processing runs through the BIONZ XR engine paired with a dedicated AI processing unit. Sony states this combination powers Real-time Recognition AF, which the RX10 V (DSC-RX10M5) uses to detect and track humans, animals, birds, insects, cars/trains, and airplanes, with an Auto mode that picks the subject type automatically.
Autofocus uses a Fast Hybrid AF system combining phase-detection and contrast-detection AF, with up to 575 phase-detection points covering approximately 70.6% of the image area. Real-time Tracking locks onto and follows a selected subject once the shutter button is half-pressed, and Touch Tracking lets a subject be selected directly on the monitor.
Burst Shooting and Shutter
The RX10 V (DSC-RX10M5) shoots blackout-free continuous bursts at up to 30 fps, with up to 60 AF/AE calculations per second during a burst. A Silent Shooting mode is available for shooting without a shutter sound. Buffer depth runs to approximately 546 frames in JPEG Fine (L), or up to 162 frames in RAW (Lossless Compressed).
Shutter speed ranges from 1/2000s to 30s (mechanical, up to F7.1) or 1/1000s to 30s past F8.0, and up to 1/16000s with the electronic shutter.
Video Recording
Video tops out at 4K 60p with no sensor crop, and 4K 120p with a crop applied, alongside Full HD recording up to 120p. Recording formats include XAVC HS, XAVC S and XAVC S-I, with 10-bit 4:2:2 color depth available at select frame rates and All-Intra compression supported in XAVC S-I.
S-Cinetone and S-Log3 picture profiles are included for color work in post-production, along with support for imported user LUTs (.cube files) as an alternative to the camera’s preset picture profiles. Active Mode image stabilization is available for handheld video, using gyro sensors alongside optical stabilization.
Viewfinder and Monitor
The RX10 V (DSC-RX10M5) uses a 0.5-type Quad VGA OLED electronic viewfinder with 3.68 million dots and approximately 0.78x magnification, with a refresh rate switchable between 60 fps (Standard) and 120 fps (High) for reduced blackout during action shooting.
The rear monitor is a 3.0-type tilting touchscreen LCD with 1.62 million dots, tilting up by approximately 78 degrees and down by approximately 48 degrees.
Connectivity and Ports
Wireless connectivity covers 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac) along with Bluetooth 5.0. The camera uses a USB Type-C port supporting SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2), which also handles USB Power Delivery for in-camera charging and external power. An HDMI micro connector (Type-D) is included for video output up to 4K 60p.
A digital audio interface built into the Multi Interface Shoe allows connection to compatible Sony microphones for 48kHz/24-bit recording across two or four channels. A 3.5mm microphone input and a 3.5mm headphone jack are both present.
4K live streaming at up to 30p is supported over USB (UVC/UAC) or network connections, with RTMP, RTMPS and SRT protocols supported for wired or wireless streaming.
Battery Life
Power comes from the NP-FZ100 battery, rated for approximately 570 shots using the viewfinder or 630 shots using the LCD monitor (CIPA standard), which Sony states is more than a 50% improvement over the RX10 IV. Movie recording runs to approximately 115 minutes (viewfinder) or 120 minutes (LCD monitor). USB Power Delivery is supported for charging or running the camera from an external battery via the USB Type-C port.
Build
The RX10 V (DSC-RX10M5) weighs approximately 1111g with battery and memory card, or 1026g body-only, and measures approximately 136.4 x 94.5 x 151.3mm. The body uses sealed seams and buttons for dust and moisture resistance. Storage is handled by a single SD card slot supporting UHS-I/UHS-II cards.
