Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only)

Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only)
The Sony Alpha 1 is a genuine flagship camera because it is one camera that can do everything. This full-frame mirrorless camera was built without cutting corners and offers high-resolution still photography, stunning 8K video recording, speed and sensitivity, and connection for the most demanding professional workflows. The α1 offers high resolution and unprecedented speed combined with sensitivity and dynamic range that can bring the creator’s vision to life.

50.1MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS Sensor and BIONZ XR
The Sony Alpha 1 has a full-frame stacked back-illuminated CMOS Exmor RSTM sensor with integrated memory and 50.1 effective megapixels. This not only produces excellent image quality but also enables the 1 to shoot continuously at up to 30 frames per second while providing quick, accurate phase-detection AF and the first full-frame 8.6K oversampled 8K movies in the series. Outstanding performance for a brand-new era of image creation. has a new system design and significantly better processing speed for all phases of signal processing, starting with image acquisition. For exceptional image quality, processing latency is reduced while image processing capability is considerably improved. Regardless of the real-time processing load, quick, stress-free control response is maintained thanks to distributed processing for user interface, network, and file management.

Continuous shooting at up to 30fps
The Sony a1 with an electronic shutter can shoot up to 165 full-frame JPEG images4 or 155 full-frame compressed RAW images5 at up to 30 frames per second3 while maintaining full AF and AE tracking performance thanks to a fast readout from the 50.1-megapixel image sensor and a sizable buffer memory. When timing is crucial for sports and other dynamic subjects, this can be a tremendous confidence booster.

Silent, vibration-free electronic shutter
When filming sports or events in a calm atmosphere, the electronic shutter makes no mechanical noise. A second factor in the higher image quality is the electronic shutter’s lack of vibration, which reduces the possibility of vibration-induced blur. Furthermore, compared to its mechanical counterpart, the electronic shutter is far more durable because it contains no moving parts.

High resolution and sensitivity with 15-stop dynamic range
The Alpha 1’s 50.1 effective megapixel image sensor produces remarkable resolution because to highly effective noise-reduction technology. In addition to high sensitivity with minimal noise and roughly 15 stops12 of dynamic range at lower sensitivity levels for smooth, natural gradations from shadows to highlights, the resolution is further enhanced by these features.

Wide sensitivity range
The new BIONZ XR image processing engine of Sony a1 works with this sensor’s high pixel count, together with its back-illuminated structure, gapless on-chip lenses, AR-coated seal glass, and other unique imaging technologies, to produce great resolution and low noise over a broad sensitivity range: Standard ISO 100-32000, extendable to ISO 50-102400.

5-axis optical in-body image stabilization
The Sony Alpha 1’s 50.1-megapixel sensor produces high-resolution photographs with the highest possible quality thanks to a high-precision stabilization unit, gyro sensors, and enhanced image stabilization algorithms. This results in a shutter speed advantage of up to 5.5 steps. The Active Mode on the 1 also provides excellent stabilization for handheld movie filming.

759 point full-area phase-detection AF
A high-density focal plane phase-detection AF system with 759 phase-detection points covers almost 92% of the image area, ensuring accuracy and unwavering focus in situations when focusing could otherwise be challenging. Together with a 425-point contrast AF system, the 759-point focal plane phase-detection AF system ensures accurate AF performance in any situation.

8K 30p and 4K 120p Support
Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera comes with a high-resolution sensor and quick processing capability, UHD 8K 30p XAVC HS 10-bit 4:2:2 video recording is feasible using the full width of the sensor, providing 8.6K oversampling for excellent sharpness and realism. Low-bit-rate proxy files with HD resolution can be simultaneously recorded for playback more quickly in order to facilitate the management of this high-resolution recording mode. Additionally, 8K video can be broadcast over HDMI in 8-bit 4:2:0 format at 400 Mb/s and 200 Mb/s, respectively, in the V90 and V60 ratings of UHS-II SD cards.

Built-in Wi-Fi supports 2 x 2 MIMO
The built-in wireless LAN supports communication on the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands, with the latter supporting 2×2 MIMO (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac) for industry-leading speed. Even with the camera’s sturdy magnesium alloy casing, dual antennas provide dependable connectivity. For news and sports reporters who must deliver with dependably quick turnaround times, 5-GHz connectivity can be a significant advantage.

Comprehensive touch operation
The Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera’s menu has been reorganized to make it easier to navigate, and touch-sensitive menu operation gives quicker, more intuitive control. Each and every primary menu and function menu is touch responsive. The controls are made even more simple to use with Touch Focus and Touch Tracking. When Touch Tracking is enabled, all you need to do to start Real-time Tracking for a subject in stills and movies is touch it on the monitor.

Improved dust- and moisture-resistant design
Sealing is provided at all body seams and the battery cover of Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera. The media slots have a double sliding cover and lock that keep water out. A lens lock button and mount cushion help too.
