Sony Alpha professional mirrorless camera portfolio to expand early next year with new model Alpha A9 IIIwhich, among other things, will offer a CMOS sensor with global shutter and shooting speeds of up to 120 fps! At the same time, there will also be the top-of-the-line G Master series zoom with a focal length of 300 mm with an f/2.8 aperture and a very lightweight design in its class (approx. 1470 g).

New firmware 1.02 for Sony ZV-E1 fixes metadata storage during video recording (shutter speed, aperture, ISO and other information was not saved in some cases), fixes incorrect JPEG display, Switch V/H AF Area function, and Auto Time Correction and Auto Area Adjustment tools in Creators' App. Last but not least, unspecified optimizations have been implemented to increase the stability of the device.
