Some unconfirmed “Burano” rumors: 1ms readout speed makes it nearly as fast as a global shutter sensor?

Share

Two new sources shared the following info about the Burano E-mount Full Frame Cine Alta camera that Sony will announced on September 12.

Source 1:

CineAlta Burano’s readout speed is within 1ms (open gate), maintaining the excellent quantum efficiency and high signal-to-noise ratio characteristics of the BSI stacked sensor, and realizing an image view that approximates the global shutter, and in the vast majority of scenarios, it is not possible to notice the difference from the global shutter.

Source 2:

Trade show vendor leaked to me on Wed that she was told the Sony Burano will have a price of $24000.

Again, those are from new sources so I can’t be sure yet if the info is correct. But for sure that fast readout speed sounds exciting and maybe also hints at the capability of the future A9III?
