Sony has officially unveiled the Alpha 1 II, the second-generation model of its flagship full-frame mirrorless camera. The successor to the acclaimed Alpha 1 comes with a host of upgrades, combining high resolution, speed, and cutting-edge AI-driven autofocus technology for both professional photographers and videographers.
The Alpha 1 II retains the 50.1MP full-frame stacked CMOS sensor from its predecessor but now includes a dedicated AI processing unit. This enables advanced subject detection, including human poses, animals, birds, insects, and even vehicles, making it versatile across different shooting scenarios.
Other notable enhancements include improved in-body image stabilization, rated at up to 8.5 stops at the center and 7 stops on the periphery, and a new pre-capture mode that saves moments even before the shutter is pressed.
Videographers will appreciate the ability to shoot up to 8K 30p and 4K 120p video with improved stability through Dynamic Active Mode.
Ergonomics have also been refined, featuring a 4-axis multi-angle LCD screen, a deeper eyecup, and additional shortcut buttons for more intuitive controls.
Connectivity upgrades include a faster 2.5Gbps Ethernet port, while a new BC-ZD1 charger supports dual-battery charging.
The Sony Alpha 1 II is set to launch in December 2024, priced at $6,499.99PHP 381,455INR 550,873EUR 6,190CNY 47,309 USD (~PHP 383k+). This flagship camera is positioned as the ultimate hybrid tool for professionals in wildlife, sports, weddings, and commercial photography.
