Environmentally conscious
Sony’s environmental plan “Road to Zero” aims for a zero environmental footprint by 2050. The DVF-EL1 uses recycled plastic materials, constituting more than 59% of the main unit’s weight, including our durable SORPLAS™ material. We are also transitioning to non-plastic packaging materials.
Integrated storage for VF terminal cap
The camera’s VF terminal protective cap can be stored inside the OLED Viewfinder body when removed. This design helps prevent loss and enables efficient handling.
