The Sony A1 is Sony at its finest.  Sony has spent years perfecting everything from the bright viewfinder to the natural ergonomics, now the sensor in the A1 produces some of the best images I’ve ever been captured. The amount of detail and resolution that this camera captures is only matched by its ability to do so at 30 frames per second. Featuring a 50MP sensor with a pair of new Bionz XR processors, the A1 also has an amazing autofocus system, which comes with updated machine learning derived algorithms for detecting human faces and eyes, as well as the eyes of animals and birds

Some other notable features include:

• In-body image stabilization to 5.5 stops
• 15 stop dynamic range
• A bright viewfinder with 0.9x magnification and a resolution of 9.44 million ‘dots,’ which translates to a resolution of about 2048×1526
• An AF system covering 92 percent of the sensor

The controls and customizability of the A1 are unmatched. This is a flagship not only for loyal Sony users, but for the camera world in general. Yes, it’s expensive, but you get what you pay for.
