I remember when the A6000 came out. It was a game changer at the time. I think this is a similar situation. Game changer that other camera manufacterers will have to follow.
I'm just gonna run down the list of benefits coming from this technology: - No rolling shutter - No LED or screen banding - Flash sync at any speed - No mechanical shutter to break - No shutter shock - Always silent If there is a price to pay, surely it isn't a cost greater than the benefits. It's probably the biggest advancement in photography since mirrorless. I wonder how long before it becomes standard.
With my X100V the greatest difference of my photos from the ones of a smartphone is the possibility of fill flash at full power. Imagine when that global shutter arrives at an smartphone...
It's a jaw dropping camera. I have got a kit that I'm perfectly happy with though. I'm not going to be one of the first global shutter pro camera owners. I am excited for what is to come for when I am looking to replace my current gear.
That’s odd because I could hear you perfectly well! I wasn’t able to comment at the time for some reason but I wanted to say that I have never seen you so excited before and it was great to see!
When I first got my hands on the original A9. It seemed like wizardry being able to shoot 20fps, silently, and with no viewfinder blackout. Today Sony does it again with the A9 III.
I'm gonna buy either this or A1 II. I would settle for A1 II with 50MP @ 60fps and maybe 90fps lossy compressed raw? So far this is what I'm buying next my A7SIII.
Hey Booray, 120 frames per second is impressive but no flash Sync speed, that is an important function to have in a camera. I wonder if the other camera manufacturers will follow Sony, time will tell. It will be interesting to see how many are sold. Thanks for keeping us up to date with the latest and greatest in the photography world. 😃
Other manufacturers will have to, if they want to stay in the camera business. Fujirumors is suggesting a possible X-H3s assuming the Sony offering is a success. Sports shooters will love this if it is all that Sony says it is.
I agree this could be a game changer in the evolution of mirrorless camera. Being able to sync flash at any speed is amazing. Just when you thought the big boys have evened the playing field with sensors, using a El shutter only, and auto focus advancements Sony comes along and again raises the bar. I shoot mostly sports and wildlife, the H2s shooting at 40 FPS and much improved auto focus has made me believe this is as good as it gets. I'm not sure if I could cull my photos shooting 120 FPS. LOL.
I just saw a B & H’s advertisement for this camera. And the first thing I thought about where is Booray and Gary and the 🎶Photography News 🎶. I can see how this could be great for sports, but if you went to a extremely fast shutter speed to really freeze action, you would have to raise your ISO. Does it say anything about noise? Although, even 1/16,000 is probably not necessary, let alone 1/80,000. Good summary. Thanks Booray.
We still need to know the trade offs of the global shutter sensor, we already know this isnt a dual gain sensor and base ISO starts at 250. Hows the dynamic range and high ISO performance, time will tell. Also how much time does the camera take to buffer after a 1.6 second burst of images at 120fps.
Those who can afford this 6K camera and benefit from these features, all the power to you. I wish you all countless of amazing photos. Me, I can neither afford a 6K camera, nor can I benefit from it's features in my photography. They'd have to make much more powerful flash units than those available today. But even if they did, I still couldn't afford them. This just isn't my day, is it?
@@BoorayPerry Mainly opportunistic photography:-). That is street photography, sometimes landscapes, sometimes architecture, still-life, close-ups, steam engines. No macro, not much stuff indoors and no portraits. I have flash units, but I rarely ever use them. I'd love the ability to move the Sun and clouds around for my landscapes, though:-).
It may be of interest to some of Booray’s fan base but it looks like the X100V will soon be available again. A store in the UK is taking orders, stock to be available in December.
This is a huge announcement, but Booray I think it would be a subset of people who will care, landscape, street, wildlife, etc...they all benefit from IBIS, but they have no dog in the fight for flashes...
Given your excitement about the no flash sync speed and that being the bane of your existence for years, should I/we anticipate a Booray switch for Sony from Fuji?? Or will you wait to see how Fuji responds?
Because the ND filter will affect the flash. When using flash in bright sun you need all the power you can get. A 4 stop ND filter effectively reduces your flash to 6% power.
I said the same on another video a week ago, and i understood how it works, the thing is that flash durations is around 1/1000s, when you use an ndfilter you are affecting both parts of the exposure (with flash and with no flash), when you are exposing with a higher shutter speed you're making the flash being a big part of the exposure time, 1/1000s of the flash is the 100% of the 1/1000s shutter speed exposure. that's not happening with a shuttter speed of 1/200s, the flash is finally working on the 20% of the exposure. and depends on what are you looking for, but that will make alter your lighting around the frame, you can get better or worse subject isolation from background.
Interesting. I guess film is like a global shutter in that the whole `sensor' is exposed at the same time. Was banding ever a problem with film photography do you know Booray? Just curious.
I think it is the same, because there are mechanical shutters... Not sure what the min shutter speed is... But there was banding I remember with flash for sure.
How about eye auto focus... I remember Canon and Nikon people used to call this feature as nothing but gimmick.... now, a new camera lacking the eye auto focus feature.is a crime.
Hi dear, remember the $2000 (X-T5) I said would be the last time I bought a new camera, well this new Sony at $6000 just just came out, and I really think it will be my last camera, ever. Oh, I will need another $4-5K for lenses too. Oh well, as a sifi-fantasy, this is another ***** video!
I hate the term “global shutter”. I wish they had another name for it. Does my Nikon FM3A film camera have a global shutter? Light hits the entire frame at 1/4000th of a second. Is this just solving a flash issue? Can we call it global flash?
The Nikon FM3A has a flash sync speed of 1/250. It has a focal plane shutter which means that any speed over 1/250 will prevent a flash from hitting the entire frame. :)
Even then there will be limitations. A leaf shutter typically has a lower max SS with a wide aperture because the shutter can't operate fast enough. For example, the Fuji X100V has a leaf shutter that is 1/4000 at f4 but 1/2000 at f2. @@nunwalksinabar
The 6K price will limit this, IMO, to pros who shoot sports/action, portraits and those who are wealthy enough to want "the newest and the best." The camera specs don't make it special for landscape, walk-around, street, product/food or family type pictures. Okay, maybe street night time/low light situations. Do you really need 120 fps for wild life? But I get back to the fact that that's a heck of a lot of money to spend on a full frame camera!
About that flash sync speed, with my Nikon D700 I could already use flash with shutter speeds up to 1/8000th using Auto FP. So fast shutterspeeds are out there for already more than 15 years.
I wonder how Sony always leading in camera industry with its mind blowing innovations when it's actually a consumer electronics company? What's even interesting is that I have still zero interest to switch to this system.

Looks impressive, but I’ll hang on to my X100V.

No because I don't do that many beach weddings anymore. But if I was still doing a couple a week then maybe. :)
OK, I'm sure I'll want it, but for now I have an X-T3 and no IBIS :)
iso 250 hurts, it means that dr is not going to be as good as it is in other modern ff bodies. but everything else about this camera is simply amazing
I dont know if portrait shooters will like the minimum 250 ISO though.
I don't think it will be a problem as long as you can raise your shutter speed to offset it.
Goodbye sync speed. Hey Fuji, put this in the X-Pro4 :).
Just to clarify … flash will work no matter shutter setting?
That's what they say. :)
Why not use ND filter when shooting in bright daylight when aperture wide open?
Because the ND filter will affect the flash. When using flash in bright sun you need all the power you can get. A 4 stop ND filter effectively reduces your flash to 6% power.

250 Base ISO. Technology will chance photography… but not yet.
Are you switching over ?
Absolutely not. But, if I was still doing a hundred beach weddings a year I would definitely be thinking about it. 🙂📷
Not going to buy X100VI if it doesn't have global shutter and IBIS
LOL
Not for me it wont!
About that flash sync speed, with my Nikon D700 I could already use flash with shutter speeds up to 1/8000th using Auto FP. So fast shutterspeeds are out there for already more than 15 years.
That's a hi-speed sync mode. You lose flash power with that. th-cam.com/video/5upPrGqt2As/w-d-xo.html
My Fuji gfx 50r has only 1/125 sync speed !! 😢
That would kill me. 🙂

Canons r5 ii will have to have a global shutter to survive
I'm wondering the same thing. 🙂📷
It will still be a SONY though 👎🏼🤢
Cool for sport and wildlife Photographers.... not a big deal for Videographers... Red Komodo had GS years ago and is cheaper...
