What sets Sony Alpha apart?
Our dedication to achieving breakthroughs.
Every Sony Alpha camera is designed with these
5 pillars of photography in mind:
"Anytime, anywhere" compactness,
meets mesmerising quality
Compact, lightweight and portability is essential to every photographer, as they give you the creative freedom to spot a great shot, then snap it immediately. This versatility is even more important when vlogging with one hand or when using with gimbal setup.
The spirit of a Pioneer.
When the Alpha 7 was introduced in 2013 - amidst a world of heavy and bulky DSLRs - it became the world's first full-frame mirrorless camera, delivering professional image quality in a compact package. Even till today, Sony Alpha has continued to lead the way, especially with Alpha 7C, which holds the title of the world's most compact and lightweight full-frame camera*.

Compact size, full-frame power
Finally, a compact performer that uncompromising professionals and enthusiasts can count on. The Alpha 7C grants you access to all the features you expect from a full-frame camera - a large sensor, state-of-the-art AF, and rapid-fire continuous shooting.
Ignite the storyteller within you
Photos have the unique ability to capture a moment in time, and to captivate audiences with this fleeting moment of beauty, splendour or emotion - empowering you to see instances that are easily missed by the naked eye.
When a camera's autofocus system is so reliable, you can focus on achieving the perfect composition, with full confidence that your camera has what it takes to capture genuine moments in a snap.

When it comes to autofocus performance, Sony Alpha leads the industry.
With real time tracking, Alpha delivers the world's fastest autofocus. We also made Eye autofocus popular with the world's first full frame mirrorless to feature Eye AF technology, allowing powerful emotions to be captured in breathtaking clarity.
We didn't stop there, as we revolutionised animal photography
with Animal Eye AF technology. All these are powered by our
constantly evolving AI algorithm, which analyses an incredible

empowered with a camera that's fast, accurate and brilliant.

In this arena, Sony's sensor technology shines as the world's most selected image sensor. Our technological innovations take light sensitivity to the extreme - up to ISO 409600 - and with minimal noise. In fact, Sony image sensors are also used in advanced Hollywood production cameras.
Videographers choose Sony Alpha for its groundbreaking full-frame sensor,
which was the first full-frame camera capable of full pixel readouts in 4K video,
as well as Sony's advanced Bionz XR image processing engine
that allows you to shoot high frame rate videos
that look amazing - day or night.
Supreme sensitivity x Speed
Showcase your creative vision at its very best with the Alpha 7S III - a camera that excels in every environment, even in ultra-low light, so even 4K videos in near total darkness look outstanding.
Cameras as tough as you are
Reliability is the foundation that supports every other feature in your camera - whether it's speed, sensitivity or high-resolution shooting. To survive and excel in every environment you shoot in, your camera must be as durable as you are.
Unyielding perseverance
Sony Alpha showcases itself as a leader in reliability with cutting-edge battery technology that brings outstanding battery life to your shoots, delivering the world's longest battery life in a full-frame mirrorless camera with the Alpha 7 III. And if you need to continue shooting on an empty battery, most Sony Alpha cameras can be powered by USB.
Alpha's heat management capabilities are also constantly evolving to handle even the most rigorous shoots - keeping your image sensor and processing engine temperatures within normal operating range, enabling the 7S III to shoot continuously without overheating for more than 60 mins, even in 4k 60p. Additionally, most Alpha full-frame cameras are dust and moisture-resistant. And with two SD card slots for saving backup copies, you can be confident of always taking your precious shots home.
What's more, Sony Alpha cameras undergo stringent reliability testing - the Alpha 9 II, for example, records an outstanding 500,000 cycles. When professionals go on all-day, all-weather shoots, they're confident they can count on the reliability of their Sony Alpha.
All-round performer
When you need an all-round performer for every shoot - indoors and outside, day or night - make the Alpha 7 III your go-to camera.
