Keeping moving subjects in sharp focus is crucial, whether you're covering sports or everyday life. Sony’s advanced AI-based tracking algorithms handle huge amounts of data quickly and accurately in real time.
Real-time Eye AF tracks eyes continuously for portraits, even if the face is partially hidden, backlit, or looking down. You can choose to focus on either the left or right eye.
Sony’s eye-detection technology now works for animals as well as humans, giving you clear and sharp pet and wildlife photos.
With 425 phase-detection and 425 contrast-detection points, the camera has wide AF coverage for better detection accuracy. Its latest processing engine allows for a fast 0.02-second AF speed, and advanced algorithms predict where your subject will move next.
The α6100’s speedy processing and large buffer memory let you shoot continuously at up to 11 frames per second with after-view or 8 frames per second in real-time preview, with minimal lag. You can take around 77 JPEG (Standard) shots in a single burst.
Silent shooting is perfect for quiet environments like live performances or animal portraits. The α6100 can shoot continuously at up to 8fps with AF/AE tracking, even in AF-C mode, and with Real-time Eye AF or Real-time Tracking.
The APS-C sensor uses copper wiring to improve light collection, paired with a new image processing engine for better resolution and natural textures.
Improved noise suppression helps produce cleaner images in low light. The native ISO sensitivity goes up to ISO 32000, expandable to ISO 51200 for stills, with effective noise reduction in medium-to-high sensitivity ranges.
The α6100 captures natural skin tones, helping you take great-looking portraits.
The camera produces natural-looking colours and reduces jaggies and false colours, making images look more like real life.
Fast Hybrid AF combines phase-detection and contrast-detection for high-speed, accurate focusing in 4K movies. This system ensures smooth focus even when something moves in front of your subject.
With full pixel readout and no pixel binning, the camera processes about 2.4 times the information needed for 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) recording, producing movies with exceptional detail and realism.
