Sony a7R III boasts 42MP Sensor, 4K video, speedster performance

Sony today introduced the third generation of its topline 35mm sensor-based pro camera, the Sony a7R III, featuring major performance improvements combined with super-high resolution. The camera is built around a 42.4MP CMOS sensor that can capture 4K video. The company claims a wide 15-stop dynamic range, the world’s most responsive anti-shake system, increased light sensitivity coupled with improved noise reduction, and a fast 10fps burst rate for sports photography.

Sony also introduced a new 24-105mm f/4 zoom lens.

Designed top to bottom as a pro tool, the key upgrade in the a7R III is its processor. Sony claims impressive shooting speeds at up to 10 fps with full AF/AE tracking, as well as beautiful image and 4K video quality, wide 15-stop dynamic range, and high sensitivity with noise reduction of almost a full stop. The camera is capable of silent shooting at 10fps at 42MP resolution, an impressive feat. As with most high-end Sonys, this model is very customizable; virtually all buttons and dials can be reassigned to fit your shooting needs and workflow.

Quality Boost The 42.4MP high-resolution, back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS image sensor utilizes a gapless onchip lens design and AR (anti-reflective) coating on the surface of the sensor’s seal glass, which Sony says will dramatically improve light collection efficiency, resulting in high sensitivity with lownoise performance and wide dynamic range.

The a7R III also has a new front-end LSI that effectively doubles the readout speed of the image sensor, as well as an updated BIONZ X processing-engine that boosts processing speed by approximately 1.8 times compared to the α7R II, according to Sony. These parts let you shoot at faster speeds while also enabling an ISO range of 100-32000 (expandable to ISO 50 – 102400 for still images) and impressive 15-stop dynamic range at low sensitivity settings.

There is no optical low pass filter to maximize resolution, and the camera can output 14-bit RAW format still images even when shooting in silent or continuous mode. A 5-axis optical

image stabilization system is said to provide a 5.5 step shutter speed advantage, the world’s highest compensation performance for an image stabilization system. There is also a new lowvibration shutter that reduces vibration and image blur in all modes, including the high speed 10 fps shooting. Sony says the camera also has several advancements in accurate color reproductions of skin tones.

Even though the new camera has the same sensor as its predecessor, its still a great new

A new feature is Pixel Shift Multi Shooting mode, camera. which takes full advantage of the advanced 5-axis optical in-body stabilization to create beautiful true-to-life, super-high resolution composite images. In this mode, the camera precisely shifts the sensor in 1-pixel increments to capture four separate pixel-shifted images containing a total of approximately 169.6 MP of image data. These four images can be composited together and processed utilizing the new “Imaging Edge” software suite.

This results in a still image with extremely high resolution and increased color accuracy, and is ideal for photographing architecture, art or any

other intricately-detailed still-life photography subject. Highly Responsive AF and AE Sports and action photographers will appreciate the camera’s ability to capture up to 76 consecutive full-sized RAW/JPEG images at 10fps (28 uncompressed RAW images) in either mechanical or digital shutter mode. The camera can also shoot continuously at up to 8 fps in live view mode with minimal lag in the viewfinder or LCD screen.

AF is available in Focus Magnifier mode, focal-plane phase-detection AF support when using A-mount lenses, an ‘AF On’ button, a multi-selector or ‘joystick’ for moving focusing points quickly, flexible touch focus functionality and much more.

The upgraded focusing system is comprised of 399 focal-plane phase-detection AF points that cover approximately 68% of the image area in both horizontal and vertical directions. There are also 425 contrast AF points, an increase of 400 points compared to the α7R II. This advanced system is claimed to deliver AF acquisition in about half the time as the α7R II in low-light conditions, with tracking that is approximately two times more accurate as well. If there is fluorescent or artificial lighting in a shooting environment, users can activate the Anti-flicker function to allow the α7R III to automatically detect frequency of the lighting and time the shutter to minimize its effect on images being captured.

The new a7RIII boasts common pro body features such as a PC Sync port now

Pro-Quality 4K Video The camera is equipped with a variety of enhanced capabilities that give it a true professional operational style. These include dual media slots, with support in one slot for UHS-II type SD memory cards. Users have a variety of options for storing their content, including separate JPEG / RAW recording, separate still image / movie recording, relay recording and more. Battery life has been greatly extended as well, as the new camera utilizes Sony’s Z series battery that have approximately 2.2 times the capacity of the W series battery utilized the previous model.

You can monitor your footage on an upgraded high-resolution, high-luminance Quad-VGA OLED Tru-Finder (which debuted in the flagshsip A9 camera) with approximately 3,686k dots, which Sony says provides accurate, true-to-life detail reproduction. The Tru-Finder utilizes a ZEISS(R) T* Coating to greatly reduce reflections, and has a fluorine coating on the outer lens that repels dirt.

It also has a customizable frame rate, with options of either 60 fps or 120 fps (20) to best match the

“Standard” or “High” display quality settings are also available for both the viewfinder and monitor as well. “High” takes advantage of the large amount of data read from the 42.4MP sensor to provide extra fine viewfinder and monitor displays for a more natural view. The new camera also offers a multi-selector joystick that provides a fast, efficient way to shift focus points, as well as an ‘AF ON’ button to activate autofocus when shooting stills or movies.

Hybrid Camera

What is a hybrid camera and who are the people who use them?

Using a camera that can shoot good video

Whenever people think of either taking a photo or video of an experience they think about the different tools they can use in order to capture and share that experience. Automatically using a camera comes to mind when thinking of capturing a memory in either photo or video form. There are different types of cameras. From film cameras for both stills and video. There are photography digital cameras and there are video digital cameras or also known as video camcorders. With two cameras to shoot stills or video, that means there has to be more at least one person to operate the two cameras. What can ONE person do if they want to take both photos and videos without carrying all two completely different cameras.

He is also widley known for his Youtube channel: Travelfeels How did you become a filmmaker?

My journey to becoming a filmmaker isn’t exactly a traditional one. After high school, I went to study Kinesiology but after two years I felt like maybe there’s something better out there for me. So I went back to Finland where I grew up to study at a bible college. Throughout those 3 years I started to dabble in making films at a church I was going to in my hometown.

Then my brother and I bought some gear and started a wedding videography company called ‘Heart Visuals’.

What were you doing before filmmaking?

Before filmmaking, I was working as a youth pastor in Finland for a year.

What is the biggest challenge you have had to overcome and how did you do it?

“I've never considered myself an artist. I hated art class in school.”

I think one of the biggest challenges for me was stepping from a full-time job to become a freelancer. There was definitely some fear thinking what if I don’t get enough jobs to cover our expenses and all of that. But I realised that it was the perfect time to try it out and if it didn’t work out I could always do something else.

What does the term ‘being creative’ mean to you?

What is the best project you have worked on and how did you get involved with it?

It’s hard to say which is the best but one of the most enjoyable, and at the

Hm, that’s an interesting question for me. I’ve never considered myself as an artist even to this day. I hated art class in school and was way better at math and sciences. I’m more of a logical person, but I guess being creative for me is showing.
