In this video we show how far smartphone technology has come in the camera department, now being able to shoot 4K 120fps on all three lenses on the back of the Xperia 1 IV. Of course, we don't expect the phone to out compete Sony's flagship mirrorless camera, the A1, but it was fun to show how much the gap has closed. The Xperia 1 IV is no joke when it comes to being a real option for filmmakers, videographers, content creators, and live streamers. The 4K 120fps is super buttery, the internal stabilization is revolutionary, and the auto-focus is everything we've come to expect from Sony.
