The Sony a1 flagship full-frame mirrorless camera offers the perfect balance of ultra-high-resolution imaging and astonishing speed. The powerful 50.1-megapixel full-frame sensor features 15 stops of dynamic range and readout speeds that allow for 30fps continuous shooting without losing AF/AE tracking, making it perfect for fast-paced action. Dual BIONZ XR processors deliver flawless responses and a smooth workflow. Continuous Shooting up to 30fps with 120 AF/AE calculations per sec. The Alpha 1 captures moments that would otherwise be lost thanks to its high-speed readout from the 50.1-megapixel image sensor, making it possible to shoot up to 30 full-frame images per second, using the electronic shutter, with full AF (autofocus) and AE (auto exposure) tracking up to an astonishing 120 calculations per second4, with AE response latency as low as 0.033 second, even with sudden changes in brightness. A large buffer memory and increased overall system speed allow up to approximately 165 JPEG images or 155 compressed RAW images to be captured in one continuous 30 fps burst and at 20 frames per second, users can shoot up to 238 full-frame compressed RAW images or 400 full-frame JPEG images. This can be a huge confidence-booster when timing is critical for sports, wildlife, and other moving subjects.8x more powerful, next generation BIONZ XR image processing engine The Alpha 1 incorporates the next generation BIONZ XR image processing engine which performs 8x faster processing compared to the BIONZ X processing engine. found on previous models. The BIONZ XR handles all of AF, image recognition, image quality adjustments, development, and more in real time, minimizing processing latency while markedly boosting still image and movie processing power. Exceptional Video Quality Explore the Alpha 1's limitless video possibilities with 8K 30p 10-bit 4:2:0 XAVC HS recording with 8.6K oversampling. 8K footage can be used for flexible 4K editing during post-production, while in-camera 4K recording at up to 120 frames per second allows the user to shoot up to 5X slow-motion video, allowing for unparalleled creative expression. The Alpha 1 features a high-precision stabilization unit, gyro sensors, plus optimized image stabilization algorithms. Furthermore, it also has Active Mode, which offers outstanding stabilization for handheld movie shooting. The Alpha 1 also delivers 16-bit RAW output to an external recorder via HDMI for maximum post-production flexibility. Dual drive mechanical shutter for up to 1/400 sec. flash sync With significant advances in mechanical as well as electronic shutter performance, the Alpha 1 boasts the world’s fastest flash sync speed of 1/400 sec. in Full-frame and 1/500 sec. in APS-C mode with mechanical shutter. It incorporates a carbon fiber shutter curtain that is both durable and lightweight along with a newly developed dual-driven shutter system utilizing spring and electromagnetic drive actuator for faster shutter response. Flash can be added to bring out extra dimensionality in the subject. Silent, vibration free electronic shutter w/ all-in-one Silent Mode The electronic shutter in the Alpha 1 has several advantages, including the ability to shoot completely silently and without any vibration that can occur with a mechanical shutter. Silent shutter is ideal when shooting sports or events in a quiet environment, while being vibration-free minimizes the likelihood of vibration-induced blur, further contributing to superior resolution and image quality. Since the electronic shutter has no moving components, it is much more durable than any mechanical counterpart. A convenient All-in-one Silent Mode setting in the menu makes it possible to set all parameters related to silent operation in one quick step, allowing faster setup when shooting concerts, theater, or in other situations where absolute silence is required.Incredible autofocus w/ 759 phase detection AF points, 92% coverage The Alpha 1 incorporates Sony’s highly acclaimed Fast Hybrid AF in all modes for both still and movie shooting. The Exmor RS sensor and powerful BIONZ XR processing engine make it possible to provide a high-density array of 759 selectable phase-detection AF points for high-speed autofocus tracking capability with the precision of 425-point contrast-detection AF to quickly lock onto subjects that move erratically or change speed suddenly and track them with tenacious reliability across 92% (approx.) of the imaging area.
