the “alpha male” from the herd of Sony full-frame mirrorless cameras is a camera loaded to the very top for solving tasks of the most complex nature in photo and video shooting. The model performs well in absolutely any genre of photography and provides recording of 10-bit videos in ultra-high resolution up to 8K (7680x4320 pixels) with a subsampling rate of 4:2:0 and a frame rate of 30 fps.

In 4K resolution, the camera records 10-bit 4:2:2 video at 120 fps with S-Cinetone colour technology. The heart of the Sony A1 body is a 50.1 MP full-frame sensor mounted on a movable stabilizing plate. The matrix provides a dynamic range of more than 15 exposure levels for both photos and videos. In conjunction with the BIONZ XR image processor, the camera produces an impressive rate of fire of up to 30 fps, while the mirrorless memory buffer can hold 155 compressed RAW images or 165 JPEG photos.

Also, the model quickly focuses in automatic focus mode (including the eyes of birds and animals in real time), has a best-in-class electronic viewfinder with a resolution of 9.44 million dots and a refresh rate of 240 fps, a touch screen on a rotary hinge , two slots for SD drives and CFexpress Type A. The only moment that holds you back from a momentary trip to the store for a mirrorless camera is the fabulous cost of the model, even in the “bare” “Body” configuration.

Video reviews

The top-end full-frame camera A1 has climbed to the top rung in Sony's mirrorless camera hierarchy. This model is equally suitable for professional photography and video production. Why is she so in demand?

Highest reading speed

The main element in the camera design is the new multi-layered full-frame Exmor RS sensor with a high resolution of 50.1 MP. Two powerful Bionz XR processors work in conjunction with this. The image sensor of this model has outstanding data reading speed. For example, at full resolution of 50 MP, a mirrorless camera is capable of photographing at 30 frames per second in 12-bit RAW format. In this case, an electronic shutter is used, and the functionality of autofocus and exposure is fully preserved. With a mechanical shutter, the shooting speed is 10 frames per second.

Smart autofocus

The stabilization system in the Sony A1 is based on sensor shift, and its effectiveness is estimated at 5.5 shutter speed or exposure stops. Autofocus is also excellent - the autofocus system includes 759 phase detection points, covering about 92% of the frame. It is capable of tracking a person's eyes, even when the gaze is not directed at the camera, and also easily copes with tracking animals, birds and various vehicles. Visual pleasure when shooting is provided by an electronic viewfinder built on an OLED matrix with a resolution of 9.44 million dots. Another advantage is the high screen refresh rate of up to 240 frames per second.

The perfect tool

This camera offers excellent video capabilities. It supports recording 10-bit 4:2:0 video in 8K resolution at up to 25/30 fps. Recording is done at a bitrate of 200 or 400 Mbit/s directly to an SD memory card of video recording class V90 (or to a CFexpress type A card). In 4K you can shoot video at up to 120fps, and there's also 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ at 60fps and S-Cinetone color technology. The Sony A1 is one of the most advanced tools for experienced photographers and videographers.
