A7s Low Light Footage from Matthew Allard ACS on Vimeo.
I’ve been lucky enough to have a production model Sony a7S for the past week and in between working for Newsshooter.com at Broadcast Asia in Singapore I’ve been testing the camera out.
One of the big draw cards is the cameras low-light ability. In short, the A7s is, without a shadow of a doubt, the new low-light king. I have never seen another camera that can compete with this camera’s low-light ability. I would use it happily at 20,000 ISO and even up to about 50,000 ISO.
What I’m even more excited about is the ability to shoot at say 10,000 or 20,000 ISO and be able to stop the camera down to get a greater depth of field and sharpness from my lenses in dark conditions.
Stay tuned for a full review on Newsshooter.com in the next few days.
