Sony Alpha ILCE-9 III + Tamron 35-100mm f2.8 Di III VXD

Sony Alpha ILCE-9 III

This latest addition to the Alpha 9 series is a groundbreaking development and features a newly developed Exmor RS™ image sensor - the world's first stacked 24.6 megapixel CMOS full-frame sensor with global shutter system. A revolution in camera design, tailor-made for sports and wildlife photography. Distortion in fast-moving scenes and viewfinder blackout during still image capture are a thing of the past. The Alpha 9 III can shoot continuous bursts at an astonishing 120 frames per second with full AF and AE tracking. The Alpha 9 III AI processing unit guarantees unprecedented subject recognition accuracy. It offers a maximum shutter speed of 1/80,000 second to freeze fast-moving subjects and enables seamless flash synchronization at all shutter speeds up to 1/80,000 second, avoiding the brightness drop of High-Speed Sync (HSS) to capture challenging scenes.

A new technological edge

The Alpha 9 III marks the beginning of a new era in photography. The newly developed Exmor RS™ image sensor is the world's first full-frame CMOS sensor with 24.6 megapixels and a global shutter system. No more distortion in fast-paced scenes. This pioneering technology guarantees perfect shots every time, even in video. High-resolution 4K video can be recorded at 120 fps without cropping, allowing precise preview of the angle of view. With 6K oversampling, it also delivers exceptional 4K image quality.

Capture all fleeting moments

Blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 120 frames per second to ensure no more moments are missed. Thanks to the AI processor, all subjects are recognized and captured with impressive precision. In addition, the new Pre-Capture function and Continuous Shooting Boost function allow you to either increase the frame rate or capture the action before pressing the shutter button, while retaining the option to shoot in RAW format.

The fastest and most accurate autofocus yet

In addition to Sony's outstanding AI-based autofocus, this camera now recognizes subjects' eyes from a distance, giving professionals additional ways to capture uncompromisingly sharp shots. The electronic viewfinder with 9.44 million pixels and fast refresh rates ensures that subjects always remain in focus, even in dynamic environments. This enables sharper, clearer focusing that exceeds expectations.

Shooting at lightning speed

Experience a breathtaking shutter speed of 1/80,000 second for the first time, making it possible to freeze moments that are imperceptible to the naked eye. In addition, the flash sync speed has been improved to match any desired shutter speed. Even in bright daylight, creativity can be unleashed in portrait photography.

The ultimate professional tool

Meticulously designed for professionals, the Alpha 9 III focuses on convenience and speed of execution. This camera offers a robust and durable body design that features a new grip for improved handling. With a 4-axis multi-angle display, new customizable buttons and improved connectivity, it has been designed to meet the needs of professional photographers.

Tamron 35-100mm f2.8 Di III VXD Sony E-mount

For full-frame mirrorless cameras

With the 35-100mm F2.8 Di III VXD, Tamron expands its portfolio with a particularly compact and lightweight premium Zoom lens with a continuous F2.8 aperture. Developed as a deliberate alternative to the multi-award-winning 35-150mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD (model A058), the new model is aimed at users who appreciate high image quality, a pleasant bokeh and a significantly reduced size and weight.

With an overall length of just 119.2 mm and a weight of just 565 g, the lens fits comfortably in any photo bag and is ideal for portrait, travel and reportage photography. The proven VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor technology ensures fast, precise and quiet autofocus - ideal for reliably capturing natural facial expressions and fleeting moments.
Its excellent tracking performance is even suitable for the unpredictable movements of children and pets. In addition, its quiet operation is ideal for photos and videos in noise-sensitive environments.

Thanks to a close focusing distance of just 0.22 m in the wide-angle range, the lens also opens up creative possibilities for detailed close-ups, such as tabletop or indoor subjects. Compatibility with the Tamron Lens Utility software enables individual adjustments for photo and video applications. The overall package is rounded off by high-quality workmanship, a uniform filter size of 67 mm and a high level of operating comfort.

Smooth, precise operation for comfortable photography

The 35-100 mm F2.8 was developed with particular care in terms of the operability of the rings to ensure comfortable everyday photography. Improvements to the internal structure and greater precision of the ring mechanism ensure smooth and consistent movement. In addition, carefully selected friction materials provide natural torque and intuitive focus and Zoom control.

Creativity at close range - ideal for indoor photography

With a minimum object distance (MOD) of 0.22 m in the wide-angle range (maximum magnification 1:3.3), this lens enables close-ups of your subject. It is ideal for tabletop shots in cafés and interiors and transforms everyday scenes into artistic images that are enhanced by the bokeh of the F2.8 aperture.
