/EINPresswire.com/ -- NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - March 29, 2016) - B&H Photo would like to share the announcement of the Sony DSC-RX10 III Digital Camera, a long-zoom model that sports a Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-600mm-equivalent zoom lens featuring a bright f/2.4-4 aperture. The DSC-RX10 III retains many features of its predecessor, including a 20.1MP 1" Exmor RS Stacked BSI CMOS sensor with DRAM chip and the BIONZ X image processor. This combination allows for UHD 4K video recording, up to 40x super slow motion, and continuous raw shooting at up to 14 fps, along with a Fast Intelligent AF system that can lock on in just 0.09 seconds, enabling the user to photograph subjects quickly and seamlessly.

- BIONZ X Image Processor
- Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* f/2.4-4 Zoom Lens
- 24-600mm (35mm Equivalent)

The lens's optical design benefits from an advanced aspherical (AA) lens, as well as eight ED glass elements and a Zeiss T* coating to reduce flare and ghosting. The aperture diaphragm uses nine blades to create smooth, circular bokeh. Furthermore, Optical SteadyShot image stabilization can compensate for up to 4.5 stops of shutter speed, preventing unwanted camera blur due to camera shake at long telephoto distances. Macro shooting is possible with a minimum focus distance of just 1.2" at the widest setting.
A 0.39" 2.36m-dot OLED Tru-Finder EVF and a tiltable 3.0" 1,228k-dot LCD allow you to view exactly what you're looking for in nearly any position. A focus ring, zoom ring, and a de-clickable aperture ring allow for intuitive shooting, while a display panel on top of the camera allows the user to check settings easily without moving the camera. For added convenience and customization, 58 functions, including zoom assist, can be assigned to the custom buttons on the camera.
The DSC-RX10 III includes a BIONZ X image processing engine that supports 4K video recording, as well as other movie functions including ultra-telephoto super slow motion at up to 960 frames per second. The Sony RX10 III works well for wide-angle landscapes, close-up sports shots, and any situation that calls for a high-performing camera with an advanced zoom. Sony has integrated NFC and Wi-Fi into the camera, allowing for direct connection to smartphones or tablets with the PlayMemories Mobile app for remote control and image sharing.
Additionally, Sony has announced two new full-frame lenses, the FE 50mm f/1.8 and FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS lenses for E-mount mirrorless cameras, including the respected a7 series. The lightweight and compact 50mm lens offers full-frame shooters a normal perspective along with a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture, an aspherical element, and a 7-blade circular aperture mechanism for smooth bokeh.

The Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III from Sony is a versatile digital camera optimized for multimedia image-makers working in a broad variety of situations. Featuring a large 20.1MP 1" Exmor RS CMOS sensor, which utilizes both back-illuminated and stacked technologies, a high degree of image quality can be attained, with notable clarity, reduced noise, and sensitivity to ISO 12800.
The FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS from Sony is a versatile zoom lens designed for full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras. Complementing the reach, this lens' optical design incorporates four aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion glass elements to control spherical and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range for increased clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy.
The sensor and processor also contribute to fast autofocus performance that benefits both stills shooting and video recording. This Fast Intelligent AF system is able to achieve precise focus in as little as 0.09 seconds to suit working with quickly moving subjects. By continuously tracking and assessing subjects, the focusing system is able to quickly lock onto subjects prior to half-pressing the shutter button and a subject detection algorithm then intelligently predicts the proper point of focus to aid in acquiring sharp imagery of moving subjects.
A simple, bright, and lightweight normal prime, the FE 50mm f/1.8 from Sony is a versatile normal-length prime lens designed for full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras.
A large 1" 20.1MP Exmor RS CMOS sensor pairs with the BIONZ X image sensor to realize a high degree of image clarity with reduced noise levels to support working in a wide array of environments with sensitivities up to ISO 12800. The Exmor RS sensor employs a unique stacked structure with a back-illuminated design for efficient light gathering abilities, as well as faster performance.
Telephoto zoom 70-300mm lens is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, however, it can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 105-450mm equivalent focal length range.
