Product details
The 50 MP Exmor RS sensor offers up to 30 FPS without blackout, supported by an industry-leading 9.44-million-dot EVF with high-speed refresh rate and 5.5-stop IBIS, all thanks to the BIONZ XR processor. With 759 phase-detection and 425 contrast-detection AF points, the camera features a wide and high-density autofocus that covers 93% of the image, enhanced by real-time autofocus technology: Real-time Tracking AF, Real-time Eye AF (Human, Animals, Birds), and Real-time Eye AF in video (Human only). With the Alpha 1, you'll never miss those important moments at the right time.
The camera offers advanced professional controls: menu, high-capacity Z battery, full-size HDMI, Ethernet, and ultra-fast Wi-Fi. Two CFexpress Type A compatible media slots make the camera the perfect tool for professionals looking to get the most out of their equipment. For flash photographers, the camera is now capable of shooting with a flash sync speed of 1/400 and 1/500 in APS-C mode.
For videographers, the camera provides 8K up to 30p 4:2:0 10-bit and recording capabilities up to 4K 120p. With the built-in S-Cinetone feature and active mode image stabilization, cinematographers and videographers can achieve cinematic results that rival those of Sony's Cinema Line products.
The improved dust and moisture resistance, the highly reliable mechanical shutter with 500,000 release cycles, and the super-speed USB-C 3.2 port for power support particularly distinguish this camera.

Overall ratingVery good98/100
The Alpha 1 is still a true all-rounder - for both photography and video production. Although there are cameras with higher resolution, faster frame rates and comparable 8K functionality, they hardly offer all the features at the same time. What it lacks a few years after its market launch is the AI coprocessor of the newer models, which enables improved scene recognition, among other things...
Sony has shaken up the professional segment of the system camera market with the Alpha 9 III. The model is the first full-frame system camera to feature a global shutter sensor. This means that with this model, the image sensor is read out completely in one step instead of the pixels being read out line by line one after the other...
With the SL3, Leica has created a very good full-frame camera that impresses above all with its high resolution. The autofocus still lags behind the competition from Canon, Nikon and Sony; firmware updates could bring improvements here. The best competitor models are also ahead in terms of continuous shooting and some features...

With a price range from 890 to 8000 euros, there should be something to suit almost every budget. High-resolution medium and full-frame cameras offer top performance in terms of image quality. Robust, fast and excellently equipped cameras can also be found in the APS-C and MFT range...
Very good100/100

Our test results clearly show the advantages and disadvantages of the new technology: for the first time, extremely fast image series and videos are possible without any rolling shutter effect or problems with flickering artificial light and there are also new possibilities with flash. However, this is offset by higher image noise and a lower dynamic range...
Very good100/100

The Alpha 1 is a real all-rounder, for photography as well as video production. There are cameras with higher resolution, faster frame rates and comparable 8K functionality, but hardly any with all these features at the same time. The closest thing to the Alpha 1 would be Canon's EOS R5 and Nikon's Z 9 - or the Alpha 9 Il for pure in-house sports photography...
