Dubbed the Exmor RS CMOS sensor, it is paired with a new Bionz X processing engine to further enhance the camera&#8217;s souped-up performance.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the new image acquisition and processing architecture, the camera is said to provide a record-breaking 60 autofocus and autoexposure calculations per second, blackout-free continuous shooting (which could be a game-changer for sports photographers), and 20fps burst rate. The camera offers a silent shooting mode which, combined with the 693 phase detection AF points covering 93% of the frame, giving the camera the ability to capture fast-moving off-center action.<\/p>\n<p>The plethora of phase detection AF points also allows sports photographers to focus on and capture complex, erratic motion with greater accuracy. Sony says the AF system is about 25 percent faster than the a7R II. When the frame is released while shooting stills, the EVF continues to function with no blackout, so viewers can see the image at the time of exposure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32003 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILCE-9_terminal_2.15.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"799\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILCE-9_terminal_2.15.jpg 799w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILCE-9_terminal_2.15-300x288.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since it&#8217;s a Sony, you can expect lots of customizable buttons, and the a9 doesn&#8217;t disappoint. Focus can be controlled via a multi-selector joystick and flexible and expanded spot focus area modes. The camera also has touch focusing on the rear LCD monitor. Users can select separate drive and focus mode dials, and a new AF ON button that can be pressed to activate AF directly. AF Area Registration lets the camera &#8220;memorize&#8221; frequently-used focus areas that can be recalled via custom button assignments.<\/p>\n<p>There is also the ability to assign specific settings (exposure, shutter speed, drive mode, etc) to a custom button to be instantly recalled when needed. The camera can even memorize and automatically recall the last focus point used in a vertical or horizontal orientation, instantly switching back to it when that specific orientation is used again. Finally, the &#8220;My Menu&#8221; feature allows up to 30 menu items to be registered for instant recall.<\/p>\n<p>The image viewers see is one of the highest resolution images available. The new VGA LED electronic viewfinder boasts an industry-leading 3,686k dot resolution, with 0.78x magnification. It has 60fps and 120fps frame rates, changeable depending on the shooting situation. The EVF also has Zeiss T* coating to reduce reflections, and a fluorine outer lens coating to repel dirt. Sony says the LED offers twice the luminance the a7R II.<\/p>\n<p>The new \u03b19 also features a vibration free, fully electronic, completely silent anti-distortion shutter with no mechanical mirror or shutter noise, making it an extremely powerful photographic tool for any shooting situation that demands quiet operation. A newly designed Z battery is claimed to offer more than twice the life of W batteries.<\/p>\n<p>Sony says the a9&#8217;s image stabilization system provides 5 stops of compensation thanks to its 5-axis system. You can view the effect of the stabilization with a half-press of the shutter release. Further enhancing the camera&#8217;s low-light abilities is its ISO range of 100-51,200, expandable to 50-204,800. The camera supports uncompressed 14-bit RAW image files.<\/p>\n<h4>4K Video, Too<\/h4>\n<p>The \u03b19 offers 4K (3840x2160p) video recording across the full width of the full-frame image sensor. When shooting in this format, the camera uses full pixel readout without pixel binning to collect 6K of information, oversampling it to produce high quality 4K footage with exceptional detail and depth. Recording is also available in the popular Super 35mm size.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the camera can record Full HD at 120 fps at up to 100 Mbps, which allows footage to be reviewed and eventually edited into 4x or 5x slow motion video files in Full HD resolution with AF tracking.<\/p>\n<h4>New Tele Zoom Lens<\/h4>\n<p>Along with the very sports-friendly a9, Sony introduced a super Tele Zoom lens, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/iso100400e.html\">Sony E 100-400mm F4.5\u20135.6 GM OSS lens<\/a>.
