OccamsRazor Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Some features over the A7/A7r 12 Megapixels in a FF sensor - means likely very high ISO shooting (low light). A reviewers comment, "mind boggling low light performance" Also refer to it as a 'medium format look' due to the larger pixels. Electronic shutter - means completely silent shooting 4k video capability Obviously not for everyone and seems to be a niche camera. Top ISO performance and 4K video. Bit pricy at $2498 USD body only. http://www.techradar.com/reviews/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/digital-slrs-hybrids/sony-a7s-1255921/review http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/07/sony-a7s-review-the-new-king-of-full-frame-video/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJP Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Just waiting for the price to come off the launch pad and there's a space ready in my bag. A7r for daytime. A7s for night. Right now I can find for £1400, grey import. £2099 is too much for UK official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FracturedRabbit Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 And a plain A7 for those slightly overcast early afternoons? You can never be over-prepared. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Calling Fimgirl . . . Your Leica M lenses will work well on the A7s. Imagine usable ISO at 51,000? http://rangefinderchronicles.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/the-sony-a7s-review-part-1-leica-m.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fimgirl Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I keep asking myself wherever would one need such high ISO. Granted it inevitably (read hopefully) means a very clean 3200/6400 file which is great but above that, well, black cats in coal holes comes to mind, and I don't do that. Not for me. Awaiting Fuji to announce the X- Pro2. (One day) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goshawk Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) Very impressive ! Edited September 29, 2014 by Goshawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJP Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 ^^ I know. Waiting for prices to fall a bit. Since I've got all the other A7r associated kit like grip, batteries, chargers, FE 55/1.8, Novoflex and Rayqual lens adapters and wotnot, it's not a huge reach to add the A7s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goshawk Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 ^^ I know. Waiting for prices to fall a bit. Yep . . . if only it could justify it's silly price tag for being, as it is, just a low light one trick pony. As a body, it's purely it's better than most all competitors astrophotography capabilities that interests me . . . and nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
