Sony A7R III vs Sony A6500: Physical Specs and Body Features Comparison

Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, we are going to illustrate the Sony A7R III and Sony A6500 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony A7R III has external dimensions of 127 x 96 x 74 mm (5 x 3.78 x 2.91″) and weighs 657 g (1.45 lb / 23.17 oz) (including batteries). Sony A6500 has external dimensions of 120 x 67 x 53 mm (4.72 x 2.64 x 2.09″) and weighs 453 g (1.00 lb / 15.98 oz) (including batteries).

Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony A7R III and the Sony A6500. Sony A6500 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 7mm narrower, 29mm shorter and 21mm thinner than Sony A7R III.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Sony A6500 is significantly lighter (204g ) than the Sony A7R III which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.

Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since Sony A7R III has a Full frame sensor and Sony A6500 has a smaller APS-C sensor, Sony A6500's lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will generally be lighter and smaller than the Sony A7R III lenses.

Weather Sealing

Both the A7R III and the A6500 have weather sealings in their bodies, making them resistant to water and dust.

LCD Screen Size and Features

Sony A7R III and Sony A6500's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.

Both cameras feature Tilting screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels.


Sony A7R III vs Sony A6500: Sensor Comparison

Sony A7R III has a 42.0MP Full frame (35.9 x 24 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features Bionz X processor. On the other hand, Sony A6500 has a 24.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz X processor.

Sony A7R III's sensor provides 18MP more than Sony A6500's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely. On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.

Another difference between these two cameras is that Sony A7R III's sensor lacks anti-alias (Low-Pass) filter. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moiré occurring in certain scenes.

Below you can see the A7R III and A6500 sensor size comparison.

Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony A7R III and Sony A6500 Cameras


As seen above, Sony A7R III has a 2.4x Larger sensor area than Sony A6500. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.

DxOMark Sensor Scores

Both Sony A7R III and Sony A6500 sensors have been tested by DxoMark. DxoMark scores camera sensors for color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape) and low-light sensitivity (DXO Sports), and also gives them an overall score. Of the two cameras that we are comparing, A7R III has scored 100, 15 points higher than A6500.

Model Overall Color Depth Dynamic Range Low-light ISO
Sony A7R III 100 26.0 bits 14.7 Evs 3523 ISO
Sony A6500 85 24.5 bits 13.7 Evs 1405 ISO
Sony A7R III vs Sony A6500 Comparison of Available Lenses
Which camera has more lenses?

The number of available lenses is a big deciding factor when choosing your interchangeable lens camera. Both Sony A7R III and Sony A6500 have 201 native lenses available but be careful that since Sony A7R III has a full frame sensor, only 139 of these lenses can cover the full frame sensor of A7R III.

Another important factor is the availability of image stabilization. Both Sony A7R III and Sony A6500 have Sensor-based Image stabilization which means that all the lenses will be stabilized in these bodies. A7R III's built-in Image stabilization system is effective for compensating vibration up to 5.0-stops according to CIPA standards.
