The sensor uses 0.7μm pixels to deliver high-resolution clarity while supporting HF-HDR (Hybrid Frame-HDR) for improved highlight and shadow management. Sony claims the sensor offers over 100dB dynamic range with 17 stops, while DCG-HDR and a Fine 12-bit ADC help produce cleaner RAW files with enhanced tonal accuracy. The LYT-901 also brings major advancements in zoom performance. It supports 4x lossless near-optical zoom through 4x sensor-in-zoom (ISZ), making it the only sensor currently capable of delivering 4x hardware zoom alongside 4K recording at 30fps. Additionally, users can capture 4K footage at 120fps using the sensor’s 4x binning mode. Sony has also equipped the sensor with a Quad-Quad Bayer structure and an AI-powered built-in Rebayer circuit capable of handling heavy in-sensor processing. Other highlights include 4K HDR video recording up to 60fps, pixel-binned shooting modes such as 50MP (2×2) and 12.5MP (4×4) for improved low-light results and smooth pixel-bin zoom transitions across 200MP → 50MP → 12.5MP levels.
