Experience digital extravaganza with Sony’s new α6300,
the World’s Fastest Autofocus camera
·
New Mirrorless Camera Features World’s Fastest AF
speed
·
Highest Number of AF points plus Newly Developed 24.2 MP APS-C Sensor
·
High Resolution 4K Video Recording
Being committed towards delivering top notch
imaging products, Sony India today announced the launch of α6300, its latest
addition to the award winning line-up of mirrorless cameras.
With this, Sony
advances in providing an unrivalled 4D FOCUS™ system that can lock focus on a
subject in as little as 0.05 seconds which is the world’s fastest AF
acquisition time[1]. The α6300 boasts of having the world’s
highest number of AF points on any interchangeable lens camera[2] with an incredible 425 phase detection AF points that
are densely positioned over the entire image area. Furthermore, the camera can
shoot images at up to 11 frames per second with continuous autofocus and
exposure tracking.
This impressive new mirrorless model has the ability to support full
live-view continuous shooting on the Tru-Finder™ or LCD screen at up to 8
frames per second, ultimately producing a real-time shooting experience that
combines all the benefits of an electronic viewfinder with the immediacy of a
through-the-lens optical viewfinder.
The versatile α6300 camera is equipped with a newly developed 24.2
MP[3] APS-C sized Exmor CMOS sensor that works
together with a BIONZ X image processing engine to produce outstanding image
quality throughout the entire ISO sensitivity range ISO 100 – 51200[4] .
The camera has the potential to shoot and record high resolution
4K video with full pixel readout and no pixel binning in the popular Super 35mm
format.(recording time up to 29 minutes)
Unrivalled
AF Performance
The new α6300 builds upon the acclaimed 4D FOCUS performance of
the α6000 model, utilising a Fast Hybrid AF system that combines high-speed
phase detection AF with extremely accurate contrast AF and allows it to capture
and lock on to moving subjects in as little as 0.05 seconds. The camera’s High-density Tracking AF technology
positions 425 phase detection AF points over nearly the entire field of view,
allowing it to accurately focus throughout a wide area – even on small, fast
objects that other cameras would fail to recognise.
Adding to the extensive AF coverage, the α6300 debuts a new
high-density tracking AF technology that significantly improves subject
detection and tracking performance. This new technology can quickly activate a
large number of AF points surrounding a subject – approximately 7.5 times more
density than the α6000 – and intelligently adjust them in accordance with the
subject’s motion. This is a particularly powerful feature when used with
high-speed 11 fps continuous shooting or the new 8 fps continuous live-view
mode, which provides 100% accurate framing for fast moving subjects on the LCD
screen or viewfinder.
The camera’s 425 phase detection AF points, enhanced tracking and focus
accuracy are all available on the α6300 when using A-mount lenses[5] with a
mount adaptor like the Sony LA-EA3. This is a first for Sony E-mount
interchangeable lens cameras with an APS-C sized sensor, as the only other
cameras to feature this capability are the full-frame α7R II and α7 II models.
Other enhancements to the α6300 include silent shooting
functionality, the ability to use AF in focus magnifier mode, expanded flexible
spot AF, Eye AF in AF-C mode and more.
Powerful
24.2 MP Exmor CMOS Sensor and BIONZ X Processor
In order to maximize efficiency and overall camera performance, the α6300
features a new 24.2 MP sensor that is an ideal match for its BIONZ X image
processing engine.
The new image sensor employs copper wiring in its structure, which
improves light collection efficiency and significantly accelerates readout
speed. The BIONZ X processor features an upgraded image processing algorithm
designed to maximize the sensor’s overall capabilities. Together, the two key components work
together to produce images with low noise and exceptional resolution in
sensitivity settings up to ISO 51200, in particular in the mid-to-high
sensitivity range.
Ultimate
4K Resolution and Other Professional Video Capabilities
In another first for non-full-frame Sony interchangeable lens cameras,
the new α6300 offers internal 4K movie recording in Super 35mm format.
When shooting in 4K, the camera uses full pixel readout without pixel binning
to collect 20 megapixels of information – approximately 2.4x[6] (6K equivalent) as many pixels as 4K (3840 x
2160) UHD and then oversamples the information to produce high quality footage
with exceptional detail and depth.
The camera utilises the XAVC S codec[7] during
video shooting, which records at a high bit rate of 100 Mbps during 4K
recording and 50 Mbps during standard Full HD shooting, ensuring maximum detail
and clarity in both video formats. Additionally, the camera will focus
approximately twice as fast as its predecessor during movie shooting thanks to
its new and improved AF system. AF speed and AF tracking sensitivity are also
adjustable for expanded creativity.
Other professional calibre video features include the ability to record
Full HD at 120 fps at 100 Mbps[8] ,
another first for α interchangeable lens cameras with APS-C sized sensors. This
mode allows footage to be reviewed and eventually edited into 4x or 5x slow
motion video files in Full HD[9] (24p
or 30p) resolution with AF tracking. The new α6300 also offers S-Log gamma
recording[10] for wide dynamic range shooting –
approximately 14-stop latitude in S-Log3 gamma setting – and supports S-Gamut
for a wider colour space. Both options allow for greater creativity for
processing video post-production.
The α6300 also comes equipped with a microphone line input that
accepts external microphones and supports XLR input with Sony’s XLR adapter
kit, as well as Gamma Display Assist, a new function that allows users to
monitor images or check focus when recording S-Log movies. It also carries with
it enhanced Zebra functionality for greater exposure control and has
availability of Picture profile settings, Time Code / User Bit and much
more.
Enhanced
Operability and Ergonomics
The α6300 camera is equipped with a high contrast, high-resolution
XGA OLED Tru-Finder™ with approximately 2.4 million dots that offers
exceptional corner-to-corner visibility. There is also a new mode available for
the viewfinder that allows display of images at 120 fps, ensuring that action
is displayed smoothly with very few afterimages, making subject tracking
through the Tru-Finder™ easier than ever.
Aesthetically, this new camera features an extremely solid feel in hand due
to its robust, magnesium alloy design. It can be customised to fit nearly any
shooting style or preferences, with 9 customisable buttons that one of 64
different functions can be assigned to. The camera adds a digital level gauge
as well as upgraded dust and moisture resistance[11], a
reinforced lens mount structure and a new shutter release button and mode dial
with improved operability and grip.
It is also Wi-Fi® and NFC compatible and fully functional with Sony’s
PlayMemories Mobile™ application available for Android™ and iOS platforms, as
well as Sony’s growing range of PlayMemories Camera Apps™, which add a variety
of creative capabilities to the camera. It also supports QR code for easy
connection to non-NFC smart phones.
The newly launched product will be available at all Sony Center, Alpha
flagship stores and major electronic stores across India.
