INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
If the full-frame 42.2MP sensor inside the Alpha A7R III doesn't quite deliver the resolution you need, we could soon see a Sony Alpha
camera with a 60MP sensor, if rumors are to be believed.According to a source of SonyAlphaRumors.com, Sony will soon announce a full-frame
60MP sensor that's capable of shooting at 4.6fps at 16bit and 12fps at 14bit
are also rumors of a second, 36MP sensor, which is said to offer 10fps shooting speeds at a depth of 16bit, and is capable of capturing a
staggering 60fps at 10bit
It's also claimed that the new sensor will feature on-chip phase-detect AF (we'd be surprised if the 60MP doesn't support this as
well).Weighted pixel binningBoth sensors are said to feature weighted pixel binning
a new dual-gain ADC mode, which is said to improve dynamic range by almost two stops
Details on how this mode works are scarce, and it comes at the cost of a 50% reduction in sensor speed, but Fujifilm's X-T3 already features
this tech in its Sony-manufactured sensor.Finally, there's Digital Overlap HDR (DOL-HDR)
You can think of this like bracketing, but it sees a minimum time interval of just 1/6000 sec between capturing two frames at different
