Exceptional Video Quality
Explore the Alpha 1's limitless video possibilities with 8K 30p 10-bit 4:2:0 XAVC HS recording with 8.6K oversampling. 8K footage can be used for flexible 4K editing during post-production, while in-camera 4K recording at up to 120 frames per second allows the user to shoot up to 5X slow-motion video, allowing for unparalleled creative expression.
Impressive Build & Ergonomics
There are no worries when taking the Alpha 1 on a wild adventure with its extensive weather-sealing and rugged body. A magnesium alloy chassis assures rigidity, durability, and stability while being lightweight, and improved dust removal features protect the image sensor while being overall dust and moisture resistant.
