Features


42.4MP Full-frame back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor The35mm full-frame back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor produces high resolution 42.4-megapixel images and stunning 4K video. The back-illuminated structure allows for fast readout of large volume of data while the copper wiring layer (instead of aluminum) allows for faster transmission speed. No low-pass filter results in maximum resolution from the sensor and combined with the gapless on-chip lens design and AR (anti-reflective) coating on the surface of the sensor's glass seal - dramatically improving light collection efficiency - even though the pixels are smaller than lower resolution full-frame sensors. 16-bit processing with both compressed or uncompressed 14-bit RAW files are readily available based on user preferences. The results are truly remarkable – with incredibly detailed stills and video, high dynamic range, high sensitivity and low noise across an ISO range of 100-25600, expandable to ISO 50 – 102,400.	World’s first 79 hybrid AF cross-point array3 for unmatched AF tracking The α99 II features the world’s first 79 hybrid AF cross-point array3 for unmatched AF tracking. Incorporating both a dedicated high speed, high-density phase detection AF sensor with 79 AF-points (15 cross points) with both vertical and horizontal detection and a 399-point focal plane AF sensor with vertical detection over a wide area of the frame. The 79 superimposed points operate as fully selectable hybrid cross points which allows for fast and precise focusing with just about any type of subject.	Up to 12fps1 at 42.4MP with AE/AF tracking2 The α99 II has been designed to allow for high resolution, continuous shooting at high frame rates. The camera features a new front-end LSI that works with the image sensor, BIONZ X image processing engine and a newly designed shutter unit to enable continuous shooting at impressive speeds up to 12fps1 with continuous AF/AE tracking2 at full 42.4MP resolution. Thanks to a large buffer, these shots can be viewed immediately after shooting, even when in high-speed continuous shooting mode.

Super 35mm or full-frame 4K video4 Choose Super 35mm or full-frame 4K4 to best suit the video capture your artistic vision requires. Full pixel readout with no pixel binning10 in Super 35mm format generates approximately 1.8 times the data required for 3840 x 2160 4K movies. That data is then oversampled to produce beautiful 4K imagery with spectacular resolution and minimal moiré effect. The α99 II is also capable of recording 4K across the full width of the full frame sensor, with the exceptional control of plane of focus that only full-frame format provides.	5-axis in-body image stabilization optimized for 42.4MP full-frame The 5-axis SteadyShot INSIDE image stabilization system is fine-tuned for high-resolution image sensors. It accurately compensates for blur caused by camera shake – for up to 4.5 stops13 - from five different directions: vertical, horizontal, pitch, yaw and roll. This means that any lens attached to the α99 II will benefit from images stabilization, regardless of whether the lens has its own image stabilization. Compensation across 5-axis of movement excels during video recording and even helps fight blur caused by the photographer walking or running. It’s a true marvel of engineering. You can even monitor the stabilizing effects of camera shake compensation in the viewfinder or LCD screen while shooting by pressing the shutter button halfway or magnifying the image, and while shooting movies by entering movie mode.	A host of pro video features for 4K4 and Full HD The α99 II has the ability to record 4K video internally with full pixel readout and no pixel binning through usage of the professional and friendly XAVC S format4. The camera is capable of recording high quality footage at 100Mbps for 4K and up to 100Mbps at 120 fps for Full HD4. It also offers a new ‘Slow and Quick’ mode (S&Q) that supports both slow motion and quick motion from 1 fps to 120 fps in 8 steps. A host of other features for professional movie production workflow are also included, such as zebra for easier exposure adjustment, peaking for easy manual focusing, time code, clean 4:2:2 HDMI output as well as picture profiles, S-Log3/S-Log2, S-Gamut and gamma display assist for real time S-Log monitoring.

Features


Flicker-free shooting14 Flicker from fluorescent and other artificial lighting can affect an image exposure and color anomalies at the top and bottom of an image, especially high shutter speeds14. When capturing still images, the camera can automatically detect flicker and time the shutter accordingly to minimize its effect. This maintains consistency of exposure and color from shot to shot in resulting images.	Professional rugged body and durable shutter mechanism The compact α99 II is a high-quality, high-precision shooting tool built for professionals in the real world with a rugged magnesium alloy body that combines high strength with light weight. Sealing around the main buttons, dials, ports and doors are dust and moisture resistant9 with a double-layered structure that enhances sealing effectiveness at all camera body openings including the media compartment and terminal area. The highly durable and reliable shutter unit has been proven to endure approximately 300,000 shutter releases which ensure long-lasting shooting performance that takes into consideration the high-speed continuous shooting capabilities up to 12fps and the large number of photos shot by professionals.	Advanced autofocus features With Expand Flexible Spot, the α99 II automatically uses AF points surrounding the selected point to support precise focus if the selected AF point is not positioned on your subject directly. While Eye AF automatically detects and tracks an eye of even a moving subject (in AF-C mode), for more focusing accuracy. Continuously track a moving subject once with lock-on AF.
