Sony a1 II Mirrorless Camera
90-Second Intro
Key Features
  • 50MP Full-Frame Stacked BSI CMOS Sensor
  • AI Tracking & Human Pose Estimation
  • 8K 30p and 4K 120p Video in 10-Bit
  • Up to 30 fps Shooting with AF/AE
The Sony a1 II is their most versatile camera yet, offering the best overall mixture of speed, video capabilities, high-resolution stills, and a robust, professional-worthy body design. It pulls much of the original a1's well-rounded feature-set into an a9 III body and adds the AF and IBIS technologies introduced with the a7R V. It's a camera meant for working professionals, whether they are sports, editorial, product, fashion, or advertising shooters, and it's equally appealing to landscape, portrait, wedding, and event photographers, too. And, beyond photography, it has the video tools the a1-series is known for, including 8K recording, along with useful stabilization and framing aids borrowed from the ZV class of cameras.

Can the Sony a1 mkii shoot stills during video ...

Can the Sony a1 mkii shoot stills during video recording? Or, can it place markers during video recording to find stills later??
Asked by: Gregory
Unfortunately no, the Sony a1 II Mirrorless Camera cannot shoot stills while shooting video. However, you can grab frames from the video and save them as stills later. Using the still frames from 8k video would produce the best results.

Will it support BRaw?

Will it support BRaw?
Asked by: Seth
No, even though the Sony a1 II Mirrorless Camera can output 16-bit RAW data via HDMI, at this time, Blackmagic's recorders do not support B-RAW recording from Sony cameras. You can, however, capture ProRes RAW if you were to pair the Sony a1 II Mirrorless Camera with one of Atomos' recording monitors such as the Atomos Ninja 5.2" 4K HDMI Recording Monitor (B&H # ATNINJA).
