Sony has to start introducing pre-shoot to this line up. It's about time.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

that would be an awesome feature to see, fingers crossed.

[@fotosurf_pt]

I have A1 & A7iv, but really need 6K 60fps, 4K 240fps and pre-record. Hope A9iii will have it.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Goodness, that would be such an amazing camera. I’d really like to have a two camera set up my A1 and then something like you just mentioned smaller megapixels for a better low light performance faster read out and better video capabilities. Fingers crossed pal.

[@fotosurf_pt]

@@BrianGJohnsonPhotography I will RACE you to the pre-order button ;-)

[@jws6181]

hoping it will be a 33mgp stacked, 30fps, 4K120 no crop, new A.I pross, bigger faster buffer, 7RV lcd, 5.7 EVF 240 refr- rate no 8K I think this is a Photo camera less a video camera...nice video Brain Thanks

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

I’m with you on pretty much all your ideas. I think this is going to be more photo centric which makes sense. That’ll leave room for the A7Siv to be more video centric. Even though that camera is more of a light sensitive camera.

[@bala1000mina]

Thank you so much Brian for the very helpful and informative video about Sony A9III! God bless and good luck!

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

My pleasure and good luck to you as well.

[@bala1000mina]

@@BrianGJohnsonPhotography Thank you so much Brian for your kind wishes! 🙏

[@SuzyTopAgent]

Loved all the B Roll, so beautiful 😍

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Thank you 🙌 my friend

[@Michelle4PTG]

Nice, sounds like a awesome camara. Thanks for sharing, Brian. 😺😺❤️❤️

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

You bet!

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I love my A1 but interested to see this new camera!

[@jaybeckerich]

I can’t wait to buy the a9iii. I have two a9 and an A7iv. I will sell the A7iv (doesn’t keep up as well as the A9) been hearing about the new A9 for far too long! Let it come out already!

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Sounds like we have the same plan my friend. I’m planning on selling a few cameras and may be a lens to pick up the new A9 as well.

[@carlosdacosta5910]

The A9iii is not ideal for wildlife, specially if you have to crop. For birds, its definitely not a good choice. You meed all the puxels ypu can get like in the A1. The A9 series is mostly for sports photographers. Ypu can get away with it, but sgsin, once ypu syart cropping into the image, ypu end up eith a low res image. Minimum required is high 40s MP or better

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

The a1 remains the king … for now.

[@itrepreneurpodcast]

Love your work mate

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Much appreciated

[@lifeofdang92]

I wondering if A9iii same price of A1 (after discount) is it better to get A1 instead of A9iii or people still choose A9iii over A1?

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

I talked about this very subject in a recent video about the Sony A1. You may want to check it out.

[@bondgabebond4907]

From A7R5 and beyond. What that camera has done to the Sony lineup is amazing. Still rocking on the a6700, a most amazing aps-c camera. Now that Sony is doing this to the A9, what do they have in store for the A75? The choices, the choices. I still like the higher pixel sensor, so I'm still game for the A7R5 with its glorious 61mp sensor.

[@agrs1974]

I have the A7RV but the Fps just isn't fast enough for BIF.

[@paulmitchellphoto]

Thanks for another good video and channel. You just described the a6700 only with a full frame sensor, 240fps and 8k video. ...and a heftier price tag. However, if I had the extra cash laying around I'd probably still wait for a future A1. I like the memory features and AI focus on the a6700. Switch from humans, to birds, to insects with the turn of a dial. Also the auto tracking feature for making videos look like I have a camera operator. Love what you do man, thanks again.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Yes, exactly

[@DomAZ]

I don't know, the A9 looks great but all depends what you really need for your videos or photos.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

yep! and all the cameras can get overwhelming ….

[@MaverickChristian]

0:23 to 0:30 - "In the coming weeks Sony will announce a very exciting camera: the Sony a9 mark III." Note the date this video came out.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Bingo

[@PhilT993]

Having just watched the A9iii reveal this morning, I'm afraid your predictions were WAY off, unfortunately.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

agreed, that was a massive surprise and Sony did such a good job keeping the Global shutter a secret.

[@VeryCoolJeep]

I am using a7slll which is enough

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

me too, that and the a1.

[@JamesCohenCaravan]

I hear 44 mp stacked sensor which is almost a global shutter.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

I’m pretty sure it will definitely be a stack sensor. I can’t see Sony releasing anything but in this type of a camera.

[@petersuvara]

The ultimate camera happens every new camera release… 😅

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

agreed, because we get excited about the possability.

[@TroyShields]

Effort appreciated, but no global shutter and $1,500 miss on price are ChatGPT level hallucinations.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Hey thanks Troy, this video was created four or five weeks prior to the announcement. Sure looks like an amazing camera. Oh and this video was not based on bullet points spit out by ChatGPT. My videos on photographers using video however, was. Cheers.

[@TroyShields]

Thanks Brian. I understood this. My point was that now all of your speculation that you stated as fact and is now on the internet for every model to train on is incorrect like a cGPT hallucination.

[@BriangjohnsonTv]

Fair enough, my friend. And at the end of the day somehow I think it’ll all work out.

[@agrs1974]

I think $4500 is top of the line.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

it’s certainly a TON of money, that is for sure!

[@jws6181]

what is the new price of a A9II? the A9III wil be + - 500,00 more...

[@PhilT993]

@@jws6181 The A9iii is $6000 USD !!

[@davidleakenneyphotography]

I'm tempted to change to this from my A7RV if the rumours are true. I tend to do 80% wildlife photography these days and the A7RV just isn't doing it for me for when it comes to fast action like birds in flight. Or I wait for the A1 II...

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

I get you! I have the A1 and love it, it’s allowed me to grow into the camera and now I’d like to pick up a second body for various outtings … like when I am shooting from the car and for hikes where I am not going too far. A second body would allow me to capture broll and create better videos. The new cameras are exciting for sure.

[@mleopard]

if the A9III is $4500 then the A9II should drop substantially.

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

I think the A9iii will be priced at around $4500. May be a few hundred bucks more.

[@parmanduke]

Sony a9iii going to irk alot of A1 shooters. Cmon Sony where are the firmware updates!!!!!

[@BrianGJohnsonPhotography]

Chances are high that’ll happen. I think the firmware update will also happen.
