Sony improves its entry-level camera line with the new a6100 mirrorless digital camera. This lightweight camera features a revised APS-C-format 24.2MP Exmor CMOS sensor with an ISO 100-32000 sensitivity that can be expanded to ISO 51200 when working under low-light conditions. It has an AF speed of 20 milliseconds and 11fps continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking and can record 4K videos in XAAVC S format. It also has 425-phase detection AF points and real-time eye autofocus for stills of numerous subjects. The a6100 has a 1.44m-dot OLED electronic viewfinder and a rear 3.0″ 921.6k-dot touchscreen LCD. It is also Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled, allowing for remote camera control as well as wireless file transfers. The Sony Alpha a6100 can be purchased separately or can be purchased with either a 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens or both the 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens and an additional 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Lens. Enjoy shooting crisp and clear photos or recording various high-quality footage with the new Sony a6100.
24.2MP and incredible image quality
The Alpha 6100 boasts an impressive APS-C image sensor with approximately 24.2 effective megapixels, the latest BIONZ X™ image processing engine and the same front end LSI as used on Sony’s acclaimed full-frame cameras to deliver outstanding image quality with rich detail and true-to-life color reproduction. Area specific noise reduction results in low noise even at high ISO which ranges from 100 – 32,000 (Expandable up to ISO – 51,200).
Superior autofocus with 4D FOCUS
The Alpha 6100 incorporates Sony’s unrivaled 4D FOCUS system for unsurpassed fast autofocus (AF) acquisition time that can lock focus on even the fastest moving subject in as little as 0.02 seconds. It also boasts an incredible 425 phase detection and 425 contrast detection AF points that are densely positioned over 84% of the image area, effectively tracking subjects as they move across the frame.
Real-time Tracking Autofocus
“Real-time Tracking” is a state-of-the-art feature that utilizes a special object recognition algorithm that processes color, subject distance (depth), brightness (pattern) as spatial information, plus AI (Artificial Intelligence with machine learning) information including face and eye location, ensuring that all subjects can be captured with extreme accuracy and precision.
Real-time Eye AF for animals
Advanced AI-based subject recognition technology now allows fast, precise, automatic detection and tracking of animal eyes. This new capability can vastly increase success rates when photographing animals in a variety of settings or pets at home.Real-time Eye AF animal mode can be initiated either by pressing an assigned custom button or by half-pressing the shutter button.
16-bit processing and 14-bit RAW output
Image sensor output is processed in 16-bit form by the front-end LSI and BIONZ X image processing engine before being output as compressed or uncompressed 14-bit RAW files that have smoother, more natural gradations for higher overall image quality. 14-bit RAW output is available even when shooting in silent or continuous mode.
Up to 11fps at 24.2MP with AE/AF tracking
The Alpha 6100 has been designed to allow for high resolution, continuous shooting at high frame rates. It features a front-end LSI that works with the image sensor, BIONZ X image processing engine and a newly designed shutter mechanism with ‘braking feature’ to enable continuous shooting at impressive speeds up to 11fps5 with continuous autofocus and auto-exposure tracking at full 24.2MP resolution.
The Alpha 6100 offers internal 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) recording3 in Super 35mm format with full pixel readout and no pixel binning at 2.4x oversampling (6K equivalent) for the ultimate 4K footage with exceptional detail and depth. Additional the Alpha 6100 has the ability to record Full HD at 120 fps for up to 5x slow motion HD video and a mic jack with XLR compatibility via the MI shoe, focus peaking, clean HDMI output and much more.
Touch Tracking for movies
Touch Tracking is beneficial for movie recording. Touch the subject to be tracked on the monitor, and the Real-time Tracking function will then process color, pattern (brightness), distance (depth), and face information to precisely and smoothly track the selected subject at the specified sensitivity and speed. It is also possible to half-press the shutter button or press the AF ON button while shooting to achieve fast focus (AF-S).
Make it your own with easy button and dial customization
Make operation more intuitive, quick and easy. You can assign any of 89 functions to any of 8 custom buttons. Independent function sets can be assigned for stills, movies, and playback. “My Dial” allows for frequently-used functions to be assigned to the control dial and control wheel. The My Menu function allows up to 30 frequently-used menu items to be registered.
Slow and quick motion
Slow and quick motion offers an almost endless variety of creative ways to express the passage of time. Frame rates from 1 fps to 120fps (100fps) can be selected in eight steps for full HD up to 50 Mbps; 60x quick motion/5x slow in NTSC and 50x quick motion/4x slow in PAL.
4K movie transfer to smartphone
By using the newly introduced smartphone app Imaging Edge Mobile, high-bitrate movies including 4K can be transferred to smartphones (Probability of transfer / playback depends on the performance of the smartphone). Refer to the product information for Imaging Edge Mobile for details
