Sony ZV-1F successor aka Sony ZV-1F II Arrival Date is May 23 2023. The Sony ZV-1F II teaser was uploaded by Sony USA. We are expecting an improved, AF performance of the camera. They should at least use a better Bionz series processor, that helps to analyze the scene in quicker way the hence improves the ability to focus on the subject in a more fast and precise manner.
And the best option should be if they are able to add a stacked (IMX383) 1-inch sensor (Sony Imagine division has easy access to Sony’s semiconductors since they belong to the same parent company SONY) it will uplift the camera sensor performance to next level.
Sony ZV-E1 is a Pro-Content creator camera announced by Sony. If you want to upscale the performance of your content then undoubtedly the Sony ZV-E1 camera is made for you. The camera features the same 12MP full-frame sensor that we have seen on the Sony A7S III. The camera is able to shoot UHD 4K 120p / FHD 240p / 10-Bit 4:2:2. Open lens mount and size which looks even compact than Sony A6600.
The Sony A9 III camera is expected to feature a 50-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor straight out from the Sony Alpha A1 camera. Although this rumor isn’t new (petapixel). But, now Sony has no space left. The reason behind this is very simple and logical, right now, there is no single body in Sony’s lineup that is able to directly compete against the ultra-popular Nikon Z8 camera. If Sony fails to introduce a proper Nikon Z8 competitor, it will surely lose a big consumer base.
Neither can they put a 50-megapixel sensor in the Sony A7 V camera since it’s a Semi-pro and lower-priced model. Neither can they upscale the specs of the Sony A7R series camera since the resolution has already gone beyond 60mp which limits processing power. So now they have two options left: either update the Sony A9 series drastically with the same core specifications as the Sony Alpha A1 and introduce it to the market.
The other option, which is not as good, is to introduce a new range of cameras that will compete against the Z8 (or the upcoming Z8 series). However, I think this possibility is very low. So Sony may opt for an A9 body to fight against the Z8 and here are the possible set of specifications that we may see in the upcoming A9 III camera.
Sony A9 III Specification [Rumored]
50MP Full-Frame Exmor RS BSI CMOS Sensor
Up to 60 fps Shooting, ISO 50-102400
8K 30p and 4K 120p Video in 10-Bit
3.7 m-Dot EVF (Blackout free)
759-Pt. Fast Hybrid AF, Real-time Eye AF
5-Axis SteadyShot Image Stabilization
Dual CFexpress Type A/SD Card Slots

The Nikon Z8 has become a best seller at B&H Store just after its announcement. Due to the amount of pre-orders Nikon Z8 is getting, it is being crowned as the best seller camera of B&H Store.
The Nikon Z8 is actually a wolf in sheep’s clothing, the camera features almost the same core specification we have seen inside the Nikon Z9 camera but is now available in a much reasonably priced body.
The Nikon Z8 actually flushed out the market competition, now the only way left to compete against the Nikon Z8 is Sony should announce new Son A9 Mark III camera with a 45MP sensor and Canon R5 Mark II with a newly developed 45MP stacked CMOS sensor. The Nikon Z8 is truly taking the market by storm.
After the Announcement of the Nikon Z camera: I am getting lots of questions to explain what actually stacked camera sensor by many of my users.
Explain the steps in a sensor in the best possible and simplest way possible. But before knowing the advantages of a stacked CMOS sensor, we have to understand what a conventional CMOS sensor actually does and why we need that CMOS sensor.
A conventional CMOS sensor captures the image and then through the circuit board bus or you can say via wires it transfers its entire data to the image processor unit. So the capturing and transferring process takes a lot of time and it affects the readout speed of the sensor. To resolve the issue and to make digital camera sensors faster and almost free from the rolling shutter effect, camera makers added a memory layer integrated with an arithmetic layer or you can say signal processing unit.
The memory and signal processing unit is attached to the sensor, and you can say it acts as a buffer between the sensor and the image processor unit. It captures all the data as fast as possible since it is being attached to the sensor and hence the readout speed of the sensor increases dramatically when the data is transferred in no time. Once the data is grabbed by the second layer, it is now transferred to the image processing unit of the camera for further processing.
Hence, adding a second layer improves the readout speed of the camera. As well as since the readout speed is improved, the camera becomes almost free from the rolling shutter effect.
So this is the main advantage of a stacked CMOS sensor: to improve the readout speed of the camera. The stacked technology doesn’t help the camera sensor improve its image quality in any way. It is just a tool to upskill the readout speed which in turn reduces the rolling shutter effect.

What’s next from Nikon? According to the latest rumors surfacing on the web, the Nikon Z6 Mark III is Nikon’s next announcement. The expected arrival date for the Nikon Z6 Mark III is somewhere between July and October 2023. The camera is set to feature a range of upgrades in core specifications, including a new sensor and the ability to record 4K 60 FPS video uncropped and 10-bit internally.All these specs somehow looks very similar to the specs we have shared back on November 30th, 2022
Nikon Z6 Mark III Rumored Specification
30-33MP FX-Format CMOS Sensor
EXPEED 7 Image Processor
5-Axis In-Body Vibration Reduction
UHD 4K60 uncropped Video; N-Log & 10-Bit internal
HDR (HLG), ProRes RAW
New AI-Based Subject Detection from Nikon Z9
Real-time Tracking and Real-time Eye AF
Dual Memory Card Slots
Body price under $2500
These are the initial inputs we have from unreliable sources. We will post an update if we get any. Also, see the core specs of the Nikon Z7 Mark III camera.
AF calculation per second is now treated as a standard to determine the autofocusing capability of a camera.
Nikon Z9 and Z8 have a common AF calculation speed which is 120 frames calculation per second. The same AF speed is being spotted on the Sony Alpha A1 camera, the Sony Alpha A1 camera is also able to do 120 frames AF calculation per second.
The fastest Canon camera (as of May 2023), the Canon R3, is able to do 60 AF calculations per second according to Canon.
Despite the fact that the Canon R3 is able to shoot up to 195 frames per second, it doesn’t mean the sensor is doing autofocus calculations for every frame. The AF calculation speed is only limited to 60 frames and if the camera shoots up to 190 frames per second it means the camera refreshes its autofocus after every 3 to 4 frames at max shooting speed.
But this is not the case with the Nikon Z8 camera. Even if you are shooting at its max burst speed which is 120 frames per second at 11 megapixels, the sensor is able to refresh and recalculate its AF in every single frame.
