A9 III is "Faster than a speeding bullet-literally."
"However, the coolest thing is something that pro photographer Diego Gonzalez Souto showed [James Artaius editor of Digital Camera World]: the camera can stop bullets in midair, just like Neo in the Matrix."
Souto is a sports photographer in Madrid, Spain and a Sony ambassador.
Another “sports photographer”.

You sound jealous that there are those that photograph a certain genre who find that new technology opens up easier access to getting what they want.

I guess he won't be among the photo journalists at the Paris Olympics.
This PetaPixel Podcast covers many topics, but the main topic is the Sony A9III and global shutters in general, and they discuss the pros and cons of a stacked global shutter when it comes to base ISO, high ISO Image quality, noise and dynamic range, with reports from around the world.
If you want to start with the A9III and global shutter discussion, skip to 32:50 minute in from the beginning. The entire Podcast runs 120 minutes long.
Some of what they say is the most info we know yet on this subject, and whether we will see other global shutter cameras on the market and from whom, and when.

(quote) Why Hate the Sony A9III ? This Nikon guy appreciate this monumental moment. What''s with all the Sony A9III hate out there? What's with some channels dissing Sony's monumental achievement here? As a lifelong Nikon photographer as I am, let's talk about this. We should not hate what Sony has done here? We should not downplay or lessen the A9 III and what this means. We should give major credit where credit is due.
As a Nikon photographer owning many F, D and Z cameras, I do just that. We should not hate or downgrade this monent, instead we should say - "What does this global shutter on the Sony A9 III mean for future Nikon photographers". and also give credit where credit is due.
Let's get into it. (end quote)

Certainly a quantum jump in photographic capabilities. Not arguing against that at all. But 120 fps? Who really needs that? And are there any cards out there that can handle that kind of flow? And are there any photographers who actually have the time to edit that kind of output?

Are we not looking down the road where we will just PLUCK a frame from a video stream and process that frame as our click ? No avg. six pack Joe gives a flip now as to 120 fps but being able to spray and NOT have to pray, will have advantages for us all as technology works on noise and dynamic range down the line with global shutter... Give Sony the credit for another technological advance that will help us all in the future. I wonder if there are any coincidences with Zeiss concentrating on Cinematic lenses now ?

I can easily imagine video and focus bracketing uses for 120 fps.
