Jenna Ezarik – @jennaezarik

Video creator and reviewer Jenna Ezarik had the chance to try out the new Sony Alpha 9 III with the new Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master in a variety of action-packed scenarios. She says she is extremely impressed with the speed of this camera and lens, and loves the pre-capture feature for those moments she might have otherwise missed.

Terry Warfield – @terry_warfield

Creator Terry Warfield is great at putting new gear to the test, and the latest from Sony has blown him away. In his reel below, he pairs the new Sony Alpha 9 III with the new Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master to photograph basketball action. "Look how accurate this is. Every single shot. It's a cheat code!" Follow his account for more videos highlighting the features of the new gear, including the Alpha 9 III's global shutter.

Melissa Groo – @melissagroo (featured on @sonyalpha)

Wildlife photographer Melissa Groo the opportunity to test out the new Sony Alpha 9 III and Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master in the Masai Mara, Kenya. "This camera is truly unlike any other camera I've used before. I was so pleased with the image quality and autofocus. The eye autofocus went right on that eye instantly every time, even with the cheetah's spots! Absolutely mindblowing. This is truly an extraordinary camera." See more of the images she took and thoughts on the new gear in our First Shots article and follow Groo for more stunning wildlife shots in your feed.

Mine Kasapoglu – @minekasapoglu

Traveling sports and portrait photographer, Sony Alpha Europe Ambassador and Red Bull photographer Mine Kasapoglu is known for capturing fast action both underwater and above. Using the new Sony Alpha 9 III, she says she's able to capture swimming like never before. See the proof below and check out her account for more awesome swimming action taken with the new camera.

Jake Chamseddine – @jakechams

Concert photographer Jake Chamseddine had the chance to try out the Sony Alpha 9 III at Sony Creative Space, and in this video he recaps his thoughts on using it for his work and shares that he’ll be adding it to his Christmas wish list. “The thing that makes it so special is that it has a global shutter, which essentially means there’s no more banding in concert photos,” he explains. “I won’t have to worry about my flash not syncing. It shoots 120 frames-per-second images and it also shoots a second before you take a photo, so before you take a photo it’s already capturing!”

Aleksandra Szmigiel – @runningcreatives

Award-winning photojournalist Aleksandra Szmigiel is known for her sports photography. Here she shows off the new pre-capture option in the Sony Alpha 9 III, which will now make covering sports like archery even easier for her. "Amazing results in a very short time of photographer's work!" Check out her account to see the Sony Alpha 9 III in action as she captures and shares more sports stories.

Chris Brockhurst – @chrisbrockhurst

Creator Chris Brockhurst gets his hands on the new Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master, which he says weighs about the same as the original 70-200mm f/2.8 GM. In the video below he shows the switch on the outside of the lens that allows you to instantly switch from full frame to APS-C.

And here you can see just how compact the design is as he shows how it fits perfectly into his Nanuk 30 bag. 

Brad Deel – @braddeelphoto

Sports and portrait photographer Brad Deel used the Sony Alpha 9 III to snap these action shots. After shooting all day with the camera, he says “Sony completely changed the game. Global shutter. Now what does that mean? For those of us who shoot flash, what that means is no longer do we need high speed sync. It does not matter, it makes no difference, you will never need high speed sync again. Put your flash at whatever you want it to be and that’s it. You can shoot all the way up to 1/80000-sec. With flash? That’s insane. Sony’s completely changed the game. 24 megapixels. No more banding. No more rolling shutter. All that’s gone. It’s over.”

Mickey Pierre-Louis – @itchyeyephotos

Mickey Pierre-Louis used the Sony Alpha 9 III at Sony Creative Space, and you wouldn’t believe the images she was able to capture. “Every shot was crisp - it froze the raindrops!” Check out the beautiful bokeh-filled images she created below.

Toby Gelston – @photorectoby

Toby Gelston was able to use the new Sony Alpha 9 III paired with the new Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master to capture the action shots below. “The Alpha 9 III has a global shutter, truly groundbreaking. It offers 120fps plus pre-capture (the camera is taking photos continuously while you half press the shutter and when you fully press it will save the preceding second or less burst). This makes it ridiculously easy to capture those moments.” 

Dunna – @dunnadidit

Video creator Dunna takes a look at the new Sony 300mm f/2.8 G Master, and here he explains the rear lens feature that he thinks hasn’t gotten enough attention yet. “One thing that they didn’t talk about when they were announcing the 300mm, is there’s actually a lens filter in the back of the lens. So you push this in, and you pull this out, and so you can put an ND filter or CPL in there.” He also explains how you can use any 40.5mm filter in it, something he hasn’t seen in other Sony glass before.

Lee Zavitz – @leezavits

Creator and reviewer Lee Zavitz also got to test out the new Sony Alpha 9 III, and in this video he shows how you can shoot in Turbo Mode. “I have it in regular low continuous, and then when I push the C5 Custom Button, it will go into Turbo Mode.” This allows you to override the burst rate and jump directly to shooting 120 fps.
