The Sony A9 III is the fastest ever mirrorless camera with a new kind of sensor

Sony has unveiled the first ever full-frame camera to use a global shutter, the Sony A9 III. This means it offers pro snappers a fastest-ever continuous burst shooting rate at full quality – a rapid 120fps for 24.6MP raw and JPEG photos. 

During burst shooting, there's no blackout, and thanks to that global shutter – which means that all of the sensor's pixels are read simultaneously – there's no 'rolling shutter' distortion that you can sometimes get with regular sensors.
