Sony A1 II body

The Sony A1 mark II is a professional system camera that combines unprecedented resolution with speed and precision. The A1 mark II is perfect for the videographer and photographer who wants every image razor-sharp, regardless of the speed or unpredictability of the subject.

The Sony A1 mark II has the same high-quality sensor as its predecessor. The 50.1 megapixel EXMOR RS CMOS sensor is stacked, for super-fast readout speeds. The Bionz XR processor further contributes to reliable data processing in no time. The unprecedented 50 megapixels of resolution actually cause noise in low light in some mid- to high-range cameras, but not in the Sony A1 mark II. Thanks to the AI processing unit, your images are razor-sharp without annoying noise, even when you work with higher ISO values. With a dynamic range of 15 stops you lose no detail, from the darkest shadow to the brightest highlight.

In addition to the resolution, the speed of the Sony A1 mark II is also exceptional. You shoot at 30fps up to 155 photos in RAW format without blackout in the viewfinder, so you capture every moment in the blink of an eye. You may even have taken the perfect shot before you fully press the shutter! Thanks to the pre-capture function, images are already recorded up to one second before you take the first photo.

The autofocus is also super-fast. Thanks to the AI chip, the camera has accurate tracking functions for people, animals, birds, cars, trains and insects. Thanks to the artificial intelligence, the camera can focus on the entire body and guess where the head is, so your subject always stays in focus, even when the head is covered. Human eye recognition has improved by 30% compared to its predecessor, bird eye recognition by as much as 50%.

Videographers can film with the A1 mark II in 8K resolution at 30fps. For sharp, smooth slow-motion footage you can film in 4K resolution at 120fps. Thanks to 8.5 stops of image stabilisation in the centre of the screen, your footage is stable and you don't suffer from motion blur. The Dynamic Active Mode image stabilisation also works together with the AI autofocus for extra-sharp handheld shots. At the edge of the screen, the camera has 7 stops of image stabilisation with peripheral compensation. With focus breathing compensation, the focal length stays the same while shifting focus. Videographers retain full stylistic control over your footage with S-Cinetone, importable LUT tables and S-LOG 3.

Various adjustments improve the ease of use and ergonomics of the camera. From an improved grip to a new, sharper viewfinder: the camera is truly tailored to the professional. Also perfect for professionals is a super-fast WiFi and USB connection. The compatibility with the various Sony apps ensures an efficient, easy workflow. With two slots for CFexpress cards and a longer battery life, you can work for a long time with the A1 mark II. The new dual battery charger also charges two batteries at the same time; in just 155 minutes they are fully charged again.

In addition, you can add a beautiful bokeh effect to your photos to make them really stand out.

The housing of the FE 300mm F/2.8 is weather-resistant and protects against moisture as well as dirt and dust. With this lens you always benefit from extraordinary performance, even when shooting in harsh conditions and in low-light situations.

Because the weight of the lens is distributed in such a way, you can handle it easily and keep tracking your subject flawlessly. By using two XD linear focus motors, the subject is tracked quickly and silently, so you can always capture it beautifully. Even when working at high speeds, this autofocus will not disappoint. In addition, the Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation ensures that all your images come out razor-sharp and the lens delivers superior image quality.
