Sony Cyber-Shot RX10 III Digital Camera
Large-aperture high-magnification zoom extends expressive potential
Together, a large-aperture 24-600mm1 F2.4-4 optical 25x zoom lens and 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor make subjects stand out beautifully, even when shot in extreme close-up. Extended zoom, blazing speed and complete silence2 make for a new shooting experience.
- Large-diameter ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* 24-600mm1 f2.4-4 lens
- 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor and BIONZ XTM image processor
- 4K movie recording3 of extra-high-quality images
- 960fps4 (40x) High-speed shooting
- 0.09-sec.5 Fast Intelligent AF
- Advanced operability
More stunning images throughout a wider range
The 24-600mm f2.4-4 25x zoom lens covers a range from wide-open vistas to extra-close-up action and sets subjects apart from surroundings with beautiful bokeh.Superior corner-to-corner image sharpness across the zoom range
Eight ED glass elements, including two ED aspherical and one Super ED glass element, make the large-aperture lens unit as compact as possible and realise stunning image quality all the way up to ultra-telephoto range.Outstanding macro shooting even way up close
The RX10III lets you shoot a subject as close as a mere 3cm (wide end) or 72cm (telephoto end) away.Optical SteadyShot TM — equivalent to 4.5-steps-faster6 shutter
Image stabilisation compensates for camera shake when shooting handheld, at ultra-telephoto range or in dim light. Otherwise, such stable stills and movies are possible only with higher shutter speeds.
-
The pure quality of full pixel readout and no pixel binning
With full pixel readout without pixel binning, approx. 1.7 times as much data as is required for 4K movies is condensed,then output as a 4K movie of extraordinary resolution.
-
Capture more climactic moments
With ultra-telephoto coverage out to 600mm is fantastic for recording10 climactic moments of even difficult-to-approach subjects, such as athletes in action, clearly in super slow motion.
Excellent image quality and processing efficiency
Back-illuminated technology maximise the extra-sensitive sensor’s light collection capacity, while its efficiency-enhancing stacked-circuit structure minimises processing time.Overwhelming speed
Employment of a stacked-circuit structure inside the sensor and added DRAM chip raise processing speed for very fast, efficient readout from the Exmor RS™ CMOS sensor, enabling up to 960 fps shooting and reduced rolling shutter effect up to 1/32000 sec. shutter speed.Less distortion, even with 1/32000 sec. shutter speed
Rolling shutter phenomenon is suppressed at up to 1/32000 sec. shutter speed, so you can capture sharp, undistorted images of fast sports. (Photo 1: Anti-Distortion shutter, Photo 2: rolling shutter phenomenon with conventional rolling shutter.)Depicting even darkness in truer depth and detail
The camera’s accelerated readout of 20 megapixel image data allows for continuous shooting at up to 14fps8 with reduced blackout, so you can clearly capture more decisive moments of action.
