For photographers

Professional technology from Alpha cameras
The Xperia 1 III was co-developed with the engineers behind the latest Alpha 9 series cameras, renowned for their industry-leading autofocus technology, and with input from professional photographers, who helped tune the technology and refine the photographic experience and results. Key features include fast AF in all three cameras, plus Real-Time Tracking technology for accurate shots of moving subjects.

Four versatile lens options to unleash your creativity
Expand your creative possibilities with four versatile lenses in a triple camera and fast, accurate AF across all cameras. Thanks to Dual PDAF sensors, Continuous AF keeps focus on moving subjects, while Sony's unique telephoto system supports fast AF even at extended focal lengths.

Lightning fast focus, even at long range
An optical telephoto lens up to 105 mm with fast AF lets you capture moving subjects even at a distance. Crucially, the two focal lengths are included in one telephoto module, complete with Dual PDAF sensors. So when you switch between 70 mm and 105 mm, the focal lens unit and the AF lens unit work in unison to focus fast.

A wealth of creative opportunities
With four versatile lens options, the Xperia 1 III puts a huge variety of shots within your reach.

Real-Time Tracking keeps fast-moving subjects in focus
Now you can keep the most challenging moving subjects in precise focus. Using AI and a 3D iToF sensor to measure distance, Real-Time Tracking can accurately detect and focus on a subject, then keep on tracking it even if it temporarily moves out of sight. To specify your subject, simply touch it on the Xperia 1 III display.

Capture unmissable moments
Combining quick-fire 20 fps burst shooting with 60 fps continuous AF/AE calculation, the Xperia 1 III lets you capture images you wouldn't think were possible with a smartphone.

Capture the previously impossible with up to 20 fps AF/AE
With up to 20 fps continuous burst shooting, complete with autofocus and auto exposure, you can capture countless moments in seconds.

Up to 60 times per second continuous AF/AE calculation
The Xperia 1 III continuously calculates autofocus and exposure up to 60 times per second. And with new algorithms for AF precision and performance, you'll get clear, in-focus shots of even fast-moving scenes.

Burst shooting with less image noise
Using continuous shooting in a low-light situation? Thanks to BIONZ X for mobile engine, the Xperia 1 III produces images with less noise than its predecessor when using burst mode in low light.

Experience Real-Time Eye AF-for humans and animals
Real-Time Eye AF lets you take stunning portraits, whether you're photographing people or animals. Even if your subject is on the move or one eye is covered, you'll capture memorable images full of energy and expression.
