This is just a taste of all the enhanced features in the latest Xperia made possible by the valuable feedback we have received from our community of interests around the world here to go into more detail is yoke from the blood planning team.

Thank you, kishida-san hi. Everyone, I'm sure you have been waiting to hear about all the new features you will enjoy with the new xp1 mark iii. Let's start with photography. Last year we made great advancement in speed and accuracy with the introduction of the world's first 20 fps, continuous bus shooting, with autofocus and old exposure and smartphone. This was the feature developed by the very engineers of the industry-leading alpha cameras with this technology, along with the introduction of our photography pro function, attracted many interchangeable lens camera shooters.

When professional photographer nick Dietrich first tested out, he said I was able to find just the right magic moment. A breakthrough in smartphone photography brought us inspiring feedback to challenge us even further. They were seeking. The quality is even more rich and better tracking capability, because life is constantly in motion and not everything happens right in front of you. A careful combination of 12, megapixel, sensors and dual phase detection technology achieves a perfect balance between quality and speed.

Now you have ultra-fast, continuous autofocus on every lens, including the world's first variable telephoto lens, reaching up to 105 millimeters. This gives you more possibilities for your creative expressions and speed on every lens that is yet to be seen on other smartphones and with AI super resolution. Zoom, you can zoom in up to 300 millimeters, while keeping a clear image. Of course, we do not rest on just speed, but experience. Autofocus accuracy is backed by as many as 247 autofocus points that covers nearly 70 percent of the frame.

All images are tack sharp when shooting burst at 20 fps thanks to 60 calculations per second. This means focus and exposure is calculated three times between each frame to have the most accurate autofocus and all the exposure ever in a smartphone. This time the bus shooting is greatly improved even under low light conditions, thanks to the combination of enhanced algorithms in our bios ex for mobile engine and 3d eye top sensor, producing cleaner images with reduced noise and with a dedicated shutter button you are shooting, just like you would, with a dedicated camera being able to press halfway to engage continuous out focus on your subject in motion. Speaking of the focus on the moving subject, we are introducing another technology from alpha, and we call it real time tracking. This allows for the autofocus system to stay on the subject in motion like fast moving performers, athletes and objects, even when they are partially hidden thanks to subject recognition technology, all you need to do is to tap on the display to start tracking your subject.

So now you have both real time: IOT focus for the best portrait and real-time tracking for freezing the magic moment as intended. The greater reach and tracking capability are just two examples of the things we have added to the experience based on feedback from professional photographers. The new Xperia also features slice optics with t-star coding to minimize the reflections on your lenses for exquisite, rendering and contrast, you can also choose to shoot in low format for more post-production flexibility to meet any creative need for our camera. We focused on speed and went beyond by adding features designed to enhance your pleasure of photography. Earlier this year we were honored that professional photographers, jean Cruz, was able to shoot with Xperia one mark iii.

Let's hear what gene's experience was like when I'm shooting sports, the two things I need are speed and the ability to create a great story. Sony took everything they learned from their amazing alpha cameras, and they put their technology into opera. Alpha is in its DNA, I'm a sports photographer and I love to tell visual stories. I'm constantly switching perspective from wide angle to telephoto Xperia 1, mark 3 has versatile lenses that give me focal lengths from 16 millimeters to 105 millimeters. I use that range to set the scene, show the action and capture that crucial moment where the story unfolds.

Speed is the essence of sports and there are no do-overs, I'm always looking for the decisive moment when the action is at its peak and everything comes together. When I see it happening, I tap the subject on the screen and real-time tracking locks on and continually tracks and focuses. I always have Xperia with me, because you just can't predict when something amazing is going to happen. Having a camera in my pocket that can shoot in 20 frames per second bursts at 24. Millimeters is a game changer.

The camera is making 60 autofocus and exposure calculations every second, that's three times between each frame, even in low light. The photos are tack, sharp, perfectly exposed and there's no noise. Xperia has dual PDF, with ultra-fast focus across all its lenses, even when the action is at a distance and moving rapidly, it instantly locks on with the embossed shutter button, a half press locks, the focus and exposure, just like I'm used to with alpha and photography pro has familiar controls to capture the images and just the style. I like nothing makes an impact like a great photo that captures the moment of peak action and now, with Xperia 1 mark 3, I have the power of alpha with a camera. That's always with me.

Next, let me move on to cinematography. We made filmmaking more accessible to aspiring creators with the launch of cinematography flow. Two years ago, Jeff Behring a filmmaker in harry hood, says this is a democratization of filmmaking with just a XP smartphone. You can capture your life in a very engaging cinematic way in 21 by nine aspect: ratio with Sony's know-how from harry wood. This small handheld filmmaking device brings a whole new level of possibilities, otherwise not possible with a bigger apparatus.

Creators can have greater control on how to tell their stories through look color presets, you have the option for 4k HDR in 24, fps or record up to 5 times slow motion movie to really linger on the shot and enhance its emotion to influence what you want an audience to feel. We do not just empower creators with the tools they need, but we are committed in supporting building filmmakers to have access to more platforms for showcasing their work. These include the short film festival and edge with Sony supports and has also created a new category for the smartphone film compilation, supported by Sony. The smartphone display has indeed become your window to everyday entertainment. Whether you are a filmmaker or benefice.

Now, though, professional esports player from Scott said, I can move and control characters as I want, and the display gets even better, with its new 120 heart, refresh rate, reducing blurring even during fast-paced gaming sessions. What's more, we have added low gamma laser to make it easier for you to spot opponents hiding in the shadow. We know that the audio matters just as much for winning, so we have built in an audio equalizer that lets you control what sounds to emphasize and to mute like the footsteps of an opponent approaching, you can be now hard clearer than before.

We have also included optimized voice chat microphone that laces noise during the voice chat, so you can communicate with your teammates. Clearly.

You can both shoot screenshots up, 20 frames per second making it easy to snap away now and pick out your favorite moments later, with all the features that give you the speed for the win, you will love to play these two popular titles.
