Sony A9III will be world's first fullframe camera with a Global Shutter !!! To be officially announce 11/7. What do Sony users think? This is the end of ANY rolling shutter .

All Major majors have been working on this, and perhaps both the upcoming Canon R1 and Sony A1 version 2 will also have global shutters , and Nikon and Panasonic may have a fullframe one soon also. But Sony has another first in a consumer fullframe mirrorless camera.


Cheers and best to you all, whatever your brand you prefer.

Global shutter--that is truly awesome. This is the last step in the transition to fully digital cameras. I have been shooting with an A7III and A7RIII for five years and was determined not to upgrade unless it is a camera with a global shutter. As I am not an A9 shooter I will have to wait just a little longer.

So we're going to switch to shutterless camera.

Somehow clumsy UHH does not allow you to delete a message--I meant to respond to the previous post.

OK. You got me. What is a "global" shutter?
I'm envisioning a huge thing in space that one can swing shut for global warming.

That would be awesome. This is not quite as monumental.

The limitation with current electronic shutters has been that they read out in a linear fashion, which can cause two types of issue. The first is banding in certain types of artificial light. The second issue is distortion in fast-moving objects, like a ball traveling in the air looking like an egg. To prevent that we had to return to mechanical shutters.

Global shutters eliminate that problem by enabling cameras to read the whole sensor in one go, which helps prevent issues with rolling shutter. Yes, goodbye to mechanical shutters!

If it provides a higher flash sync speed without power loss I might trade my A1.

Well if the shutter is truly global then it should be able to sync with flash at a relatively high shutter speed (provided of course the flash duration is shorter than the shutter speed).

Nope. Still have a shutter but the moving mechanisms are eliminated.

The Nikon Z8 and Z9 have totally electronic shutters. No mechanical shutter in the camera. You have to set the camera to make a noise when it takes a photo or it will be totally silent. Have gotten a few photos of my grandson that way (he hates to have his picture taken).

I like that you can set the camera to close a shutter over the sensor when off.
