EISA ADVANCED FULL-FRAME CAMERA 2020-2021
Alpha 7R IV
The Sony Alpha 7R IV is the first full-frame mirrorless camera to boast an incredible resolution of 61 million effective pixels[i]. It's also equipped with one of the industry's best autofocus systems, including AI-driven Real-time Tracking and Real-time Eye AF. Up to 10fps[ii] burst shooting with AF and AE is possible, either mechanically and electronically. Thanks to its 5-axis in-body image stabilisation, blurred pictures due to camera shake are reduced to a minimum. Withits sharp electronic viewfinder and extremely fast BIONZ X processor, this camera is ahighly reliable and capable tool that provides the versatility to handle virtually any photographic situation to the highest standard.
ISA SUPER TELEPHOTO ZOOM LENS 2020-2021
FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS
This ultra-telephoto zoom will be appreciated by those who love wildlife, nature, sports or bird photography but don't want a heavy lens. It is affordable and lightweight for its class, yet delivers great sharpness even at maximum aperture, which is very important for a lens that will often be used between 400mm and 600mm. Autofocus is very fast, and the large zoom ring moves smoothly from 200mm to 600mm without changing the length or balance of the lens, making it comfortable to use[iii]. The range can be extended even further with Sony's 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters, maintaining full autofocus capability.
EISA WIDEANGLE LENS 2020-2021
FE 20mm F1.8 G
The compact and lightweight Sony FE 20mm F1.8 G is an exceptional lens that provides really sharp images in all areas of the frame, even at f/1.8. Its optical design features advanced aspherical elements and extra-low dispersion glass to deliver high corner-to-corner image quality with minimal distortion, while suppressing chromatic aberration. The 9-bladed diaphragm allows the photographer to create beautifully blurred backgrounds. Two XD Linear Motors guarantee very fast, precise and silent focusing, while the 19cm minimumfocus distance (18cm in manual focus mode) can be used for striking close-ups.
EISA MULTIMEDIA SMARTPHONE 2020-2021
Xperia 1 II
Sony's Xperia 1 II is a multimedia powerhouse tailor-made for photographers, videographers, cinematographers, cinephiles, audiophiles and mobile gamers. Its triple lens camera shares technology from Sony's advanced Alpha interchangeable lens cameras, enabling a burst shooting of up to 20fps with continuous Autofocus and auto exposure plus automatic eye detection and Real-time Eye AF which works on both humans and animals[iv]. While Photography Pro and Cinematography Pro mirror the user interface of Sony's professional range. For media consumption on the go, Xperia 1 II features a 21:9 CinemaWide 6.5 4K HDR OLED display[v] with enveloping audio delivered by Dolby Atmos - plus support for the immersive 360 Reality Audio music format[vi]. Gamers, meanwhile, can link up a PlayStation 4's DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller[vii] for console-like gameplay. Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 5G Mobile Platform powers this feast of functionality.
