Sony A7C II (2023)

The compact full-frame A7C II keeps its I/O small but useful: a USB-C port at 5Gbps (Sony's own spec says SuperSpeed USB 5Gbps — not the 10Gbps sometimes claimed) with PD charging and UVC/UAC webcam support, a Micro HDMI Type D output good for clean 4K60, separate 3.5mm mic and headphone jacks, and a single UHS-II SD slot. Digital-audio mics attach via the Multi Interface Shoe instead of cables.

Notes & Compatibility

Sony’s official spec lists ‘SuperSpeed USB 5 Gbps (USB 3.2)’ — i.e. Gen 1, refuting the often-claimed 10Gbps. HDMI is micro Type D (clean output to 4K60; version unpublished). No flash sync terminal, no dedicated remote jack (Bluetooth or USB-C). Multi Interface Shoe with Digital Audio Interface in prose. Sony’s USB streaming modes are 4K 30p/15p and 1080p 60p/30p, and Sony asks for a computer and cable that support SuperSpeed USB 5Gbps for them. The USB-C port also powers the camera in use (USB PD), not just charges the battery.
