Sony Alpha A1 full-frame 50.1 Megapixel with FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II lens

Sony Alpha A1 full-frame 50.1 Megapixel with FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II lens is designed to deliver exceptional image quality and advanced performance. With the ability to shoot up to 30 fps continuously, this camera introduces fast and accurate phase detection autofocus for the first time in the Alpha series, along with high-quality 8K movies with 8.6K full-frame oversampling. The Exmor RS full-frame back-illuminated layered CMOS sensor with 50.1 effective megapixels and built-in memory enable the capture of high-resolution images. The sensor speed and large buffer memory enable shooting up to 165 full-frame JPEG images or 155 full-frame compressed RAW images at up to 30 fps, ideal for situations where timing is crucial. Despite the high pixel count, the backlit frame, uniform-chip lens and other imaging technologies work in synergy with the BIONZ XR image processor to deliver high resolution and low noise over a wide sensitivity range, from ISO100 to 32,000, expandable to ISO50 to 102,400. High-precision stabilization unit and image stabilization algorithms offer a significant increase in shutter speed by up to 5.5 steps.

The Sony Alpha A1 with lens supports 4K video recording in full-frame and Super 35 formats, with full pixel readouts for detailed and defined quality. The optimized menu structure, along with responsive touch functionality, offers intuitive control, further facilitated by features such as Touch Focus and Touch Tracking. As for storage, the camera supports SDXC/SDHC UHS-I and UHS-II cards, as well as the new CFexpress Type A cards, offering increased capacity and read/write speed. The Sony Alpha A1 is an all-in-one solution for professional photographers and videomakers seeking high-level performance and versatility in a compact body.

The Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II lens, on the other hand, is a lightweight, wide-aperture G Master telephoto zoom lens designed to deliver exceptional resolution and fabulous bokeh. With advanced autofocus performance, this lens unlocks the potential of modern camera bodies for both stills and video. Image quality is superb at all zoom and focus distances, thanks to optical elements such as two aspherical (including one XA), two ED glass, two Super ED glass and one aspherical ED glass that minimize chromatic aberration. Nano AR Coating II eliminates stray light and ghost images, while 1.4x and 2x teleconverters offer additional creative options. With an F2.8 aperture and 11-blade aperture diaphragm, the lens takes advantage of advanced optics to achieve spectacular bokeh effects. The surface precision of the XA element eliminates the onion effect, while the aperture creates more natural-looking circular blurs.

Minimum focusing distance ranges from 0.4 meters at 70 mm to 0.82 meters at 200 mm, enabling detailed close-up shots. Sony’s four XD linear motors increase AF speed by 4×4 over the previous model, providing optimized tracking while zooming. The advanced lightweight design reduces weight by 29% compared to the previous model, limiting it to 1,045 grams. Focus management is flexible with features such as constant DMF, linear response MF and focal range limiter. Optical stabilization modes ensure sharp shots, while the dust and moisture-proof design, together with the fluorine-treated front element, make the lens suitable for any environment.
