Can you guess how many cameras will be at the Super Bowl this year? Hint: it’s probably higher than you think

A Sony camera records an NFL game.

The number of cameras used to broadcast, record and photograph Super Bowl LIX will number well past 200. Sony, the official technology partner of the NFL, has revealed that more than 240 cameras will be used during the February 09 matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome.

That 240 number comes from the cameras used to broadcast the game to the cameras used for still photography by Associated Press photographers. Sony says that 14 cameras will be used for streaming the game, positioned in the end zone, sidelines and throughout the stadium. And yes, the SkyCam delivering the overhead views is a Sony too.
