Watch how much the size of the A9 series increased over three generations (and a rant on why we have to wait for a bigger body)

Our reader Wojtek made these nice size comparisons that clearly do show how Sony keeps increasing the Alpha cameras with every new generation. A chance to express my “rant” on the need of a Bigger body ASAP instead of letting us torture with incremental increases (see video on top).

Sony Japan published the list of the Sony A9III compatible lenses

Sony Japan published this table. The lenses with the mark “*1” will get a firmware update in December to make them compatible with the A9III. While the lenses with the mark “*2” will always have an aperture value that is fixed at the aperture value set for the first frame.

Here are the notes (google translated from Japanese):

1: A software update of the lens body is required. The software is scheduled to be released after December 2023.

2: When shooting continuously at 60 frames/second or 120 frames/second, the lens aperture value is fixed at the aperture value set for the first frame. By setting the ISO sensitivity setting to AUTO or using the shooting mode in P/A mode, it is possible to achieve appropriate exposure according to changes in subject brightness even during continuous shooting.
