## Overview

The Sony a9 is a groundbreaking full-frame mirrorless camera featuring the world’s first stacked CMOS sensor with integrated memory, enabling blackout-free continuous shooting at 20 fps. With 693 phase-detection autofocus points covering 93% of the frame, a silent shutter up to 1/32,000 sec, and a battery life supporting up to 650 still images per charge, it’s engineered for professionals who demand speed, precision, and reliability in dynamic shooting environments.

## Description

In one game-changing leap the revolutionary image sensor and high-speed processing of the α9 reaches performance levels far beyond the incremental improvements gained through decades of mechanical refinement. There is no viewfinder blackout. Continuous shooting speeds exceed those possible with mechanical shutters. Higher shutter speeds are available, and all without noise or vibration. The ability to keep an eye on moving subjects at all times leads to faultless AF and AE tracking, and the photographer’s view is consistently up-to-date with an absolute minimum of lag. In short, the digital promise has been realized at last.Camera Includes : Power cordRechargeable Battery NP-FZ100Battery Charger BC-QZ1Cable ProtectorAC AdapterShoulder strapBody capShoe capEyepiece cupMicro USB cableInstruction Manual NFC: Yes (NFC forum Type 3 Tag compatible), One-touch remote, One-touch sharing

Review: Reasons why I love the A9. - I have had this Sony A9 camera for over 5 weeks and I love it for the following reasons: 1. It is fast, fast, fast. Fast focusing, 3 times faster than my A7Rii in writing to the Lexar 2000x memory card in slot 1. 2. It has two memory card slots, (Though only slot 1 is faster.) 3. The larger battery lasts twice as long as the one in my A7Rii. 4. I really love the 1st tab, 11/13 menu: "AF in focus Mag." set to "ON". This lets me press the C1 button 2-3 times (I have set the C1 to turn on the Focus Magnification) and then pressing the shutter button halfway does an autofocus on the magnified image --- this really helps when the overall image can't find the focus in lower light situations. 5. And the Focus Magnification works in Autofocus-Shutter mode (or Manual Focus mode) where my A7Rii and A7ii will not use focus magnification in any mode except Manual Focus. 6. After focusing in Focus Magnification I can release the shutter button, drag the view to a new center and re-autofocus with a 1/2-shutter-press while the Focus Magnification remains on in the LCD or EVF. Thank you Sony! On my A7Rii or A7ii, the Focus Magnification disappears at the first touch of the shutter button. Cons: If only it had 80, or even 50, megapixels --- but then it would be even less sensitive in lower light. **** WARNING 18 Nov 2017**** The Lens Release button is slightly larger than that on the a7Rm2, and it is about 1mm closer to the right hand grip. After having my 70-200mm GM lens disconnect from the camera unexpectedly --- three times in the last 3 weeks --- falling 1 meter onto a cement sidewalk the first time (but landing on the Really Right Stuff tripod foot and the lens hood, and still working perfectly) --- I found that when I grab the camera by the grip, unless I'm very, very careful, my 4th finger almost always hits that lens release button. Then after some juggling to put the camera strap around my neck, if the lens had become released it could disconnect from the camera. I am going to add another strap for the lens itself. But this may be a problem with all lenses on the a9, so always grab both the lens and camera when picking it up (at least with large lenses). Photos are: 9mm paper clip failing to clear the lens release by 1mm on an a9 camera, 9mm paper clip clearing the lens release by .5 mm on an a7Rii camera, and dings to the lens hood and RRS tripod foot from the lens falling 1 meter to the concrete sidewalk; and it still works. --- And yes, the tripod collar/foot has been rotated to the top for handheld shooting because: 1. The tripod foot makes a good handle for carrying the lens and camera (keep the foot screwed on tightly), and 2. The smooth backside of the rotating collar is much more comfortable on the palm of my left hand.
Review: Totally impressed with Sony FF Mirrorless Cameras! - This year I just got back into photography after a long hiatus and decided to do go big time with it. I already purchased a Sony A7R III camera that I love for doing high resolution photography, but I wanted a camera that would be good for birds in flight. When I saw Sony knocked off a $1000 the price of the Sony A9 the temptation was too much, so I pulled the trigger and bought the Sony A9 as well. I haven't used it all that much and I am just getting accustomed to menus in order to setup the camera the way I want it. Here are the the pros and cons of the camera that I have found so far. Pros 1. I love the silent electronic shutter especially when you get close to 20 fps. 2. Love the auto focusing of the camera and I like it better than the Sony A7R III. Though the A7R III is more for landscape and/or things that don't move very fast. 3. I like the size and weight of the camera body, but that can be negated by putting a big old honking lens on it. 4. I like the EVF and the knowing before you snap the picture that it's going to turn out right. Though this doesn't replace knowing the fundamentals of photography, so I suggest anyone starting off in photography to learn the basics of photography. I also know a lot of old timers in the DSLR camp belittle mirrorless cameras, but I'm a tech geek and I think full frame mirrorless cameras are here to stay. Cons. 1. Nothing perfect with any cameras and mirrorless cameras are no exception. The number one grip on any Sony camera included the Sony A9 is lack of full support of the touchscreen. It would be nice and easier in my opinion to navigate the menus on the A9 if you could use the touchscreen to navigate. I know you can use the touchscreen to focus, but I personally find using the joystick easier to navigate to location in the scene and pressing the back-focus button that I had setup. 2. While the size and weight is nice, I can see where the size factor would matter for people with large hands. Fortunately I have small hands and I do have the Sony VGC3EM Vertical Grip for α9 (You can also use it on the A7R III camera) that extends the camera body. Sony's vertical grip is expensive, but I personally would not trust a 3rd party's vertical to go on the camera body. In my opinion it isn't worth trying to save a few bucks by by a cheap grip that might ruin an expensive camera body, plus it's just one more thing Sony could argue with you at the time of a warranty repair, if you didn't use the Sony's vertical grip. 3. Banding and Overheating issue on the Sony A9. I really shouldn't have put this a con, for the limited time that I have had this camera I haven't notice it. I just wanted to mention it, so that I don't get a reply "Hey, you never said anything about banding and/or overheating!". As with any camera it's not the camera, but the person behind the camera that determines if the photograph will be any good or not.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is a9 better than a7riii?**
A: Not better just more pixels.   You have to ask how many pixels do you need to be happy with your results?

**Q: Why does the free grip cost an extra $350?**
A: You can order one that has plastic parts from Meiki (good products with remote control).  They are about 100.00 OR you can order a grip extension for the same price from Sony. The Meike holds two standard A9 batteries and also has a remote.

**Q: Any future plans by sony to update a9's firmware to accomodate s-log 1  or 2 ?. jack .j.**
A: NO CLUE. Keep checking for updates is the best answer or talk to a Sony Rep

**Q: Is / will sony contemplating updating the firmware of the a9 to accommodate the s-log 2 in the future ? . j.j.**
A: No one on here will know for sure.  You'll have to wait for Sony to announce something.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reasons why I love the A9.
*by L***T on July 10, 2017*

I have had this Sony A9 camera for over 5 weeks and I love it for the following reasons: 1. It is fast, fast, fast. Fast focusing, 3 times faster than my A7Rii in writing to the Lexar 2000x memory card in slot 1. 2. It has two memory card slots, (Though only slot 1 is faster.) 3. The larger battery lasts twice as long as the one in my A7Rii. 4. I really love the 1st tab, 11/13 menu: "AF in focus Mag." set to "ON". This lets me press the C1 button 2-3 times (I have set the C1 to turn on the Focus Magnification) and then pressing the shutter button halfway does an autofocus on the magnified image --- this really helps when the overall image can't find the focus in lower light situations. 5. And the Focus Magnification works in Autofocus-Shutter mode (or Manual Focus mode) where my A7Rii and A7ii will not use focus magnification in any mode except Manual Focus. 6. After focusing in Focus Magnification I can release the shutter button, drag the view to a new center and re-autofocus with a 1/2-shutter-press while the Focus Magnification remains on in the LCD or EVF. Thank you Sony! On my A7Rii or A7ii, the Focus Magnification disappears at the first touch of the shutter button. Cons: If only it had 80, or even 50, megapixels --- but then it would be even less sensitive in lower light. **** WARNING 18 Nov 2017**** The Lens Release button is slightly larger than that on the a7Rm2, and it is about 1mm closer to the right hand grip.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy the best! Use the Best, Oh wait this camera is the Best!
*by N***K on June 6, 2017*

This is the Most amazing camera I have ever used!!!! Fast, friendly, fun; it even takes your dog for a walk, washes, dries, folds your clothes and puts them away. Goodbye EOS 1dx Mark II, Hello Sony!!!!! The only issue I have with the camera is the Battery life when shooting RAW and saving JPEG's at the same time. I was only able to get 1152 shots on one battery (wink). Seriously, can you imagine me with multiple batteries, I would never even have time to write this review. So in my opinion BUY it! Yes it is a lot of money and the glass is expensive but this is the very Best camera I have ever used! Goodjob SONY. A very satisfied customer :)
