MK2 elements GoPro microphone and their other audio for video products at the

00:00:08.280 --> 00:00:14.519
link in the video description Sony has really put their stamp on the camera

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:19.160
Market over the last few years recently overtaking Nikon in overall full-frame

00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:22.960
camera market sales in the US to continue this momentum Sony has

00:00:20.680 --> 00:00:26.080
announced the A9 their newest steals camera that looks to please

00:00:23.840 --> 00:00:31.080
photographers looking for a properly Pro body in a mirrorless form factor the A9

00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:35.160
Sports a 24 mapix fullframe sensor that uses their new stacked seaw sensor

00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:39.840
technology the new stacked sensor gives the A9 data processing speeds that are

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:44.079
20 times faster than any previous Sony full-frame camera in the real world this

00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:50.840
amounts to the A9 being able to shoot an impressive 20 frames per second with a

00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:53.440
buffer of up to 241 raw images or 362

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:57.239
jpegs Sony is clearly targeting Action Sports and Wildlife photographers with

00:00:55.280 --> 00:01:02.600
specs like that going up against Canon's 1dx Mark II and Nikon Z5 the high-end

00:01:00.440 --> 00:01:08.080
Staples of that market rounding out the specs the A9 has 693 phase detection

00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:15.000
autofocus points that cover 93% of the sensor's frame a 3.68 million dot OLED

00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:17.600
evf that can run at a Brisk 120 frames

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:22.600
per second son's 5axis inbody stabilization 4K video recording

00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:27.079
oversampled from a 6K readout dual SD card slots and improved battery life

00:01:24.520 --> 00:01:30.920
with their new 2280 Mah rechargeable batteries I was impressed with Sony's

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:34.600
blackout 3 displays on the camera while also claiming distortion-free silent

00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:39.119
shooting with the electronic shutter which allows a shutter speed of up to

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:42.680
132,000 of a second for the first time in Sony's lineup it looks like using the

00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:46.680
electronic shutter for its silent operation is a viable way to shoot with

00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:49.320
this camera most of the time allowing shooting anywhere where the sound of a

00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:53.880
mechanical shutter could ruin the moments you are trying to photograph

00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:58.320
golf weddings or Wildlife for example while Sony has included 4K video support

00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:02.840
like in the a7r I it's a bit disappointing to see that they have yet

00:02:00.039 --> 00:02:06.880
to include a log profile in the A9 which would have rounded up the camera's video

00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:09.959
features very nicely since the new stack sensor should perform much better in

00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:13.959
terms of rolling shutter and the 24 megapixel sensor also makes this a very

00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:17.959
compelling hybrid Stills and video camera on paper Sony is likely saving

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:22.319
the more video focused approach for their next entry in the A7 series of

00:02:20.200 --> 00:02:25.879
cameras overall the A9 looks to be very well placed in the market to take on

00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:31.000
Canon and Nikon's offerings and at $4,500 It Is by no means a cheap camera

00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:35.640
but for its Target Market it does come in $1,500 cheaper than its competition

00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:38.959
