The Sony Xperia Z3 is Sony’s latest waterproof flagship smartphone, picking up where the Z2 left off. Like that phone it’s 4K capable and also offers an atypically-large 1/2.3″-type sensor. Just like the Z2, that’s a 20.7MP Exmor RS stacked CMOS sensor nestling behind a 27mm equivalent F2.0 lens. All this has encouraged Sony to offer ISO 12,800, which it says is the highest of any smartphone.

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
