Used Sony A1 Mark II Mirorrless Camera Body Only - Excellent

OVERVIEW

THE ONE

Sony continues to challenge the limits of conventional imaging tools with innovative technology that delivers an unprecedented combination of resolution and speed plus intuitive operation. The α1 offers new dimensions of imaging performance as well as efficient workflow, giving the user new creative freedom.

50.1 megapixels at up to 30 frames/second

The α1 offers an extraordinary combination of high resolution and blazing speed. Ultra-fast readout from the 50.1-MP sensor allows continuous bursts at up to 30fps with AF and AE tracking using the electronic shutter. Perfect for sports or any situation where the critical action is over in an instant.

Blackout-free for an uninterrupted view

An interrupted blackout-free view of the subject lets you respond instantly and seamlessly. The EVF is updated to minimize latency during continuous shooting.

120 AF/AE tracking calculations per second

Fast sensor readout enables 120 AF/AE calculations per second, even during 30fps bursts, for pinpoint AF tracking precision with fast and erratic subjects. AE latency is less than 0.033 s.

Full-frame stacked 50.1-MP Exmor RS™ CMOS sensor with integral memory

A stacked architecture in this back-illuminated 50.1-MP full-frame image sensor contributes to high resolution and speed. Separate pixel and circuit layers and advanced A/D conversion mean faster processing.

All-new architecture and BIONZ XR image processing engine

The new BIONZ XR engine features advanced architecture that delivers 8x greater processing power. The result is outstanding image quality as well as improved camera interface response.

Advanced flash features for broader expression

Flash sync with electronic shutter

For the first time in an α camera, electronic shutter flash sync is possible thanks to high readout speed from the stacked CMOS sensor. All electronic shutter advantages remain available for flash shooting.

Dual driven shutter drive for flash sync up to 1/400 s.

The world's first 6 dual driven shutter system allows flash sync up to 1/400 s, making it easier to capture dynamic action, and opening the door to new creative possibilities

Breathtaking resolution and image quality

The new 50.1-MP Exmor RS CMOS sensor delivers high resolution and sensitivity with low noise, plus up to 15 stops of dynamic range. A new image processing engine achieves even better color accuracy than previous models.

Wide ISO 100–32000 sensitivity range

Despite the sensor's high pixel count, a sensitive back-illuminated structure with gapless on-chip lenses and an AR coated seal glass allows a standard ISO range of ISO 100–32000, expandable to ISO 50–102400.

Pixel Shift Multi Shooting

Up to 16 images shot with precise in-body image stabilization control can be combined via computer software to create photos with up to 199 million pixels for extraordinary resolution, color, and atmosphere.

Creative Look supports varied expression

The Creative Look feature provides 10 presets that can be used unmodified or edited to create a variety of "looks" that can help creators fine-tune the mood of their stills or movies in-camera.

5-axis optical in-body image stabilization for a 5.5-step advantage

A precision stabilization unit and gyro sensors plus the latest image stabilization algorithms deliver a 5.5-step 9 shutter speed advantage, maximizing the quality of high-resolution images.

Real-time Eye AF for birds

High-level subject recognition technology now makes it possible for Sony's Real-time Eye AF function to track and accurately focus on bird eyes, even if the bird suddenly takes flight or the framing changes. This innovative function easily meets the many challenges of bird photography. 

Improved Real-time Eye AF for animals

Primarily designed for cats and dogs, this feature employs advanced subject recognition technology to reliably track and focus on animal eyes. It even works if the animal's face is upside-down.

Real-time Eye AF

Combining state-of-the-art AI technology and evolved Fast Hybrid AF algorithms, Real-time Eye AF in the α1 tracks and focuses on human eyes with approximately 30% greater precision than the α9 II.

Real-time Tracking

Select a subject, half-press the shutter, and the camera will track and maintain focus automatically. Turn on AF face/eye priority for seamless AI-based tracking of human, animal, or bird eyes.

Wide, fast, precise AF tracking

The α1 features focal plane phase-detection AF that is sensitive, fast, and precise. The 50.1-MP sensor and BIONZ XR engine provide 759 selectable phase-detection points covering about 92% of the image.

Next-generation 8K 30p recording

The new image sensor and BIONZ XR engine in the α1 deliver 8K 30p movie recording capability for extraordinary realism. Four times the resolution of 4K with full Real-time Tracking and Real-time Eye AF functionality. 8K footage is also ideally suited to flexible 4K editing.

4K movies at a high 120fps frame rate

The α1 supports high frame-rate internal 4K movie recording at up to 120fps, for smooth, expressive slow-motion playback at up to 5x. 10-bit 4:2:2 chroma subsampling can be used with Long-GOP or Intra (All-I) compression for outstanding image quality, while the new image sensor and BIONZ XR engine minimize image distortion.

The cinematic S-Cinetone look

The α1 includes the same S-Cinetone color matrix that produces beautiful color and skin tones in the VENICE, FX6, and other Cinema Line cameras. S-Cinetone delivers natural mid-tones that are essential to healthy-looking skin color, plus soft colors and gorgeous highlights, responding to a growing need for more expressive depth.

"Active Mode" image stabilization

A new Active Mode dedicated to movie shooting makes 5-axis optical image stabilization highly effective for handheld shooting. It uses the BIONZ XR engine's real-time processing capability to apply optimum compensation in all formats, including 4K. All of this is realized without compromising the compact size and mobility of the α system.

Seamlessly switch full-frame and APS-C formats

M and S size images have the same number of pixels and AF area in the full-frame and APS-C modes, so you can switch seamlessly between full-frame [M:21MP] and APS-C [M:21MP] while shooting the same scene.
