When the photographer thoughtSonyThis year I focused solely on the development of Vlog cameras, but little did I know that the A9 III, designed for professional photographers, would be released before the end of the year. Not only is it the world’s first full-frame mirrorless camera with a global shutter, it bids farewell to traditional rolling shutters and difficult photographers. After many years of jelly effect, the new model also has a 1/80,000 second shutter speed and an astonishing 120fps high-speed continuous shooting. It is also the first model of the same manufacturer to shoot 4K/120p without cropping. Every shot is accompanied by innovation, but this machine is the most It will go on sale early next year, so interested photographers may wish to prepare ammunition for their wallets in advance.
Sony A9 III Innovation 1: Global shutter bids farewell to the jelly effect
What professional photographers are most looking forward to with the A9 III is that it is the first to use the Global Shutter system. Different from the rolling shutter used in most current cameras, the new Global Shutter plus the full-frame stacked 24.6-megapixel Exmor The RS image sensor can expose and read all pixels at the same time, instead of scanning line by line from top to bottom like the traditional method. Therefore, the signals are not transmitted to the image processor sequentially, but all signals are transmitted at once. The signals are complete and There is no time difference, and the common “jelly effect” will not occur when shooting high-speed movements. For example, when capturing a golfer’s swing, no matter how fast the club is swung, it will still be straight when photographed, and will not be affected by the jelly effect and bend or deform. There is absolutely no distortion in the image.
Sony A9 III Innovation 2: 120fps continuous shooting without black screen
The A9 III uses the BIONZ XR image processor, which has eight times the computing power of the previous generation.
In addition to processing the large amount of data sent from the image sensor, the BIONZ XR image processor used in the A9 III also greatly improves the continuous shooting capability, and has a maximum shutter speed of 1/80,000 seconds, and can even match the corresponding flash at 1/80,000 Sync in seconds.
Another great thing about the new camera is that it can shoot continuously at 120 frames per second, which is a huge improvement compared to the previous generation’s 20 frames per second. Moreover, each image maintains fully automatic focus and exposure, and the viewfinder is used during the process. There will be no blackout. What’s even more exaggerated is that even if you choose to save in 14-bit RAW format, the A9 III can continuously shoot about 180 photos in one go, which is more than 1 second to continuously capture the wonderful moments on the sports field, or The unique look of wild animals.
In order to cope with the 120fps continuous shooting, the A9 III has added a “Pre-Capture” function to pre-capture images from 0.005 seconds to 1 second before pressing the shutter. Of course, this function is not new, but it is the first time it has appeared in a Sony camera. It is worth mentioning that in order for photographers to enter the 120fps continuous shooting state at any time and avoid missing the important moment in front of them, the A9 III has a new “C5” function key. Press it to turn on the Speed Boost mode and switch to the preset Continuous shooting speed, capture wonderful moments in machine gun style.
Sony A9 III Innovation 3: 4K/120p shooting without cropping
In complex scenes, you can use customizable focus ranges and focus points to accurately focus on a subject.
Still shooting is very professional, and shooting with the A9 III also has its own unique advantages. Thanks to the global shutter, the video will not have jelly effect, and it supports full pixel reading and 6K super sampling for 4K/60p shooting. It is also the first of its kind. This is a camera that shoots 4K/120p without cropping. In other words, even if you shoot 4K/60p at one moment and 4K/120p the next second, you can maintain the same angle of view without having to recompose the picture due to cropping.
In addition to the S-Cinetone movie tone setting, the A9 III also adds the automatic composition function that was previously seen on Vlog models. It uses AI subject recognition technology to automatically track and crop the composition frame. Even if the camera is fixed on a tripod, it can still take pictures The effect of the constantly changing viewfinder.
