LogInA9 III is expensive but promises no image distortion.
Sony is trying to change photography with its new A9 III mirrorless camera. Marketed as the world's first full-frame camera with a global shutter, it features a stacked 24.6MP sensor, which allows it to take fantastic photos.
So what's the buzz about? This global shutter system exposes and reads all pixels simultaneously so it can capture fast-moving subjects with no distortion. This can't be said about a rolling shutter sensor, which you can find in other cameras, as it records images sequentially from the top row of pixels to the bottom.
A9 III has a maximum shutter speed of 1/80000 second and is capable of 4K 120FPS video without cropping and 120FPS 14-bit RAW shooting with full AF/AE tracking.
"The A9 III is packed with a high-precision image stabilisation unit, advanced gyro sensors, and optimised image stabilisation algorithms to effectively detect and correct camera shake, offering 8.0-step stabilisation. This is further supported by compatible lenses with built-in image stabilisation and improved communication between the body and lenses, providing effective control for blur-free shooting even at telephoto focal lengths."
It also offers a Pre-Capture feature, which records the moments before the shutter is released, making it easier "to capture split-second moments, such as images of birds taking flight, even if actual shutter release is a little late."
Other interesting details include flash sync at all shutter speeds, the anti-flicker function, Sony's S-Cinetone picture profile, Auto Framing, and more.
The A9 III will be available next spring for $5,999. Meanwhile, check it out here and join our 80 Level Talent platform and our Telegram channel, follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
