Sony held back some of the IMX310 sensor’s power inside of the Sony a9 because the chip is capable of 16-Bit, Global Reset Shutter, and on-chip dual gain HDR 96dB dynamic range. It’s unlikely that Sony will release these features in a future firmware update because they might require additional processing power, but there is a good chance they will use this chip in a future Sony a9II soon enough.
