I'm getting your point but black-out-free camera has been introduced by Sony in 2017. It was A9, after that A92 and A1. You do not need to have global shutter for black-out-free EVF - stacked sensor is good enough for it.

@@pawelmod3292 but that’s in e shutter mode correct?

@@DJILLEE yes, but a91, a92, a1 are designed to be used with electronic shutter. Mechanical is mainly used for flashlights. PS. Actually global shutter in a93 is also electronic :-P

@@DJILLEE Just a heads up, I don't think the a9iii even has a mechanical shutter. There's no purpose for one anymore with global shutters.

I think it's going to the FX9 II as Andrea from alpha rumors mentioned the leaked specs that are identical to A9III with dual base ISO 2,000 and 6,400, 15+ stops of dynamic range.

I hope the A1 mark 2

True, like to know also

Remember Sony doesn’t give firmware updates so something to think about.

theres actually alot more to this than people understand, it's not just a case of 'not giving updates' but it may be worth considering the ever increasing rate at which things get released

@@lewcehjitl3282 Even without updates the a7SIII has literally no alternative outside Sony, not even close. I filmed in very dark situations and through many dodgey stuff. The only thing that I couldn't overcome is dodgey LED's which a9III solves. I would need at least 2-3 more cameras and I think the a7SIII will still be with me for at least another 5 years. Most competitors are shit and have deal breaking flaws no update gonna fix that. Canon for example is locking 10bit to CLog, wobbly senors, gopro-level dynamic range outside log. Even without any updates Sony cameras at their core just work perfectly. Could they improve with updates? Yes. Do other brands offer better deals? Hell no, not to mention 3rd party lenses blockage.

​@@lewcehjitl3282I have both, the A1 and A9 and don't really need a firmware update. They just work fine in all these years.

no they won't. Sony is moving onto Global Shutter now. GS is advancing camera technology forward again and Sony will not take a step back. I would be surprise if they do it though

@@harryvuemedia5106 it is not taking step back. Current a7 line has bsi-cmos not-stacked sensors. My point was that a7v could get bsi stacked sensor. That would result having: A9iii low res GS A7v medium res stacked A7rv high res bsi not stacked A1ii hmm, high res stacked, high res GS? Let’s wait and see, but I would love to have a good successor of a9i/ii with a stacked sensor - i do not want pay extra for gs.

@@pawelmod3292 It would definitely be a step backward for Sony. Only reason why i can think of them not putting a GS in the a7R and A7 series is because of the cost to produce them. But they have to now considering they have the sensor for it. Think about it? What will make the future a7V better than the a7iv? What will make the future fx3-ii better than the fx3? And what will make the future a7RVI better than the a7RV? Stacked CMOS sensor is great but there is no more point in it. Even if the future a7RVI and a7V can't do 60 fps, at least 20 fps will be great enough already. Just having a global shutter is damn good enough already. Future a1-ii will have a Global Shutter or else there is no point in releasing a flagship camera that cannot beat the A9iii. Sony's roadmap is now global shutter and once again i will have to upgrade my cameras to these global shutters.

it’s called technology advancement

@@IwasKiddinggg Call it whatever you want 😂

Your opinion dont matter since you have no work to show us. Have a nice day!

If you’re able to test it I firmly believe you’d change your mind

@@chrisbrockhurst you're probably right! I've saved enough money to upgrade from two A9's... but I think I'll be buying two A1's as it's so much cheaper. As you rightly say - the A9iii is overkill for me as a wedding photographer (at that price point.)

Well … the a9 series in general wasn’t designed for that style of work in the first place, so that makes sense.

dude, what are you talking about? A9iii will pave the way for Sony's future cameras. Just like how the A9 did it back in 2017, the a9iii is doing it now in 2023. If Sony was to just release an a9iii with a stacked cmos sensor, there would be no point in it. But sony comes out with a GS which is game changing!

@@harryvuemedia5106 the stacked sensor didn't make it in to any other cameras apart from the A1. Not the A7, A7R, A7S, AC, ACR, all the vlogging cameras. So on that basis I'd be surprised a GS trickled down in to cheaper cameras.

I feel like you own a Z8 or Z9. Just a hunch

​@@chrisbrockhurst😂😂😂

Christosphillips, this is where I agree with you, that base iso of 250 will take some getting use to and it will have an effect on dynamic range especially in bright conditions until individuals get use to it. I can even see problems in flash photography with an iso this high. I shot Nikon primarily up until 5 years ago and went into the z series, not the new ones like you have. I love Nikon still, but Sony was the right camera at the right time offering a unique move to professional video for me that only Canon offered. Sony offered lens choices from different manufacturers that no one else did. It was for me the only obvious choice moving forward. People have been shooting birds in flight and other wildlife, sports editorial photography on Nikon d4,d5, d6, Canon 1DX mkii, Canon 1DX mkiii, Sony A7III, and Sony A9 and getting fantastic images. The thing that all of these cameras that I mentioned have in common is lower megapixels. You don’t need 45mp, you might want them, but with programs like topaz and the like, they are not needed. Mark Smith from KZfaq has taken outstanding bird in flight photos and made instruction videos with the Sony A9, a 24mp camera. Now do I know having more megapixels makes cropping easier, yes it does, but like other forms of photography, knowing your subject, becoming familiar with the camera and the subject patterns, especially with fast action helps mitigate cropping, but doesn’t eliminate the need for it. The Sony A1 is the match for the Z9 and Z8. The Sony a9III has surpassed even the need for a Sony A1 at $500 more. Sony will have to reduce the A1s $6500 price tag. The Sony A9III has rendered the A1 largely insignificant because even though the A1 has a firmware update coming, the A9III has the new processor, features and screen. The A9III isn’t for everyone, but it will enable the right skilled photographers to get shots that were not possible before. Holy cow to embarrassing moments everyone. The Nikon Z8 and Z9 are great cameras and Nikon has did a 100 percent turn around with firmware updates and lenses, but the Sony A9III is next level and it will change the camera industry like no camera before it and yes people will get use to and compensate for that 250 iso (ouch) as they learn the camera inside out. The dark horse in this race will be Canon because the R1 is coming and will not have a global shutter, but I think Canon will do everything possible from their standpoint to mitigate the benefits or need for one. What makes this special isn’t the Sony A9III itself, but what Sony and others will do going forward, specifically Sony with the Global Shutter with marked improvements for there other lower priced bodies. This is Sony first global shutter and I’m sure they will improve it and probably get the iso down to 100.

More megapixels? If 50mp isn’t enough you gotta reevaluate some things

@@chrisbrockhurst a9iii does not have 50 mp. That’s why it’s not the top wildlife camera. You don’t need more than 50 but you need more than the a9iii has.
