Fifty One East introduces mirrorless Sony camera

Qatar’s leading department store Fifty One East and global consumer electronics brand Sony have introduced the latest mirrorless camera, the ?6300, pictured, at outlets in Al Maha Center and City Center Doha in addition to Virgin Megastore branches.
The camera boasts an ‘unrivalled’ 4D focus system that can lock focus on a subject in as little as 0.05 seconds, the world’s fastest auto focus (AF) acquisition time.
The ?6300 has an ‘incredible’ 425 phase detection AF points densely positioned over the entire image area – the world’s highest number of AF points on any interchangeable lens camera, and can shoot images at up to 11 frames per second with continuous autofocus and exposure tracking.
The new camera is equipped with a newly developed 24.2 MP  APS-C sized Exmor CMOS sensor that works together with a Bionz X image processing engine to produce outstanding image quality throughout the entire ISO sensitivity range ISO 100 – 51200.  
The new ?6300 can also shoot and record high resolution 4K video with full pixel readout and no pixel binning in the popular Super 35mm format. The new mirrorless model also has the ability to support full live-view continuous shooting on the Tru-Finder or LCD screen at up to 8 frames per second.
Of note is the fact that the camera’s 425 phase detection AF points, enhanced tracking and focus accuracy are all available on the ?6300 when using A-mount lenses  with a mount adaptor like the Sony LA-EA3. This is a first for Sony E-mount interchangeable lens cameras with an APS-C sized sensor, as the only other cameras to feature this capability are the full-frame ?7R II and ?7 II models.
When shooting in 4K, the camera uses full pixel readout without pixel binning to collect 20 megapixels of information – approximately 2.4x   (6K equivalent) as many pixels as 4K UHD and then oversamples the information to produce high quality footage with exceptional detail and depth.
The camera utilises the XAVC S codec during video shooting, which records at a high bit rate of 100 Mbps7 during 4K recording and 50 Mbps during standard Full HD shooting, ensuring maximum detail and clarity in both video formats. Additionally, the camera will focus approximately twice as fast as its predecessor during movie shooting thanks to its new and improved AF system. AF speed and AF tracking sensitivity are also adjustable for expanded creativity.
