The latter of which comes with a 7.5cm TFT touch panel with 1.03 million dot resolution, and is accompanied by a 1cm electronic viewfinder with 2.3 million dot resolution and supports up to 120fps. Besides that, the camera also has mic and headphone ports, hotshoe, a USB-C 3.2, a micro HDMI port, and a single SD UHS-II card slot.
