Yes, I don't even care about raw or 4K60 to be honest. The most important for me is pristine 4K, Cinetone, low rolling shutter and the ability to record for at least one hour in hot conditions without overheating issues.

noone Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 4 hours ago, Django said: Depends on your shooting style also. I mostly shoot stills with a 35mm 1.4 on FF. I like the convenience of switching to an APS-C crop for more telephoto 50mm reach. With a 12MP sensor that would mean 8MP cropped images which is really pushing it for pro use. In comparison R5’s 45MP translates to 30MP APS-C shots. Thats not to say the 12MP A7S series don’t have their purpose, for dim situations like concerts / nocturnal events, where a flash isn’t desired, they rule. But that remains niche purposes imo. A7s APSC mode is only 5.1mp. I hardly ever use it but that is still more than enough for web use and even a good 8x10. I would rather use clearzoom and turn that 35mm 1.4 into a 35-70 zoom at 12mp with little loss of image quality (jpegs and video). If shooting RAW I would just have another lens. I can see that the A7siii would need amazing continuous auto focus to get people to think about it as a hybrid rather than video only camera. This is one of my entries in a photo contest and I had to downsize it to enter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canon R5 : Sony A7RIV: The R5 seems to have this weird noise pattern in this video, could be uploaders mistake though. The stills side from this camera is seriously impressive though.

Django Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 @noone like I said it depends on your style and requirements. I shot quite a few weddings back in the day with a 5D3 during the day and would switch to A7S/A7S2 for video/stills during the evening, again with just a fast prime. Cropping & large prints were often a challenge with just 12/5MP. Yeah it’s always doable but 24-30MP and above is simply the new norm. I will still purchase the A7S3 for specific low light use and the video specs but with 12MP it is ruled out of my book for serious pro hybrid run & gun shoots. Looks like my combo will be like the good old days with a 5 series Canon all-rounder and a A7S for backup in low light (or when R5 overheats!).

zerocool22 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Good, im guessing 4k 10bit, and 120fps 4K. External prores raw maybe. But nobody wants any external recording anymore + prores raw isnt even supported in resolve. Which still comes short vs the R5 for me personally (as the R5 is an amazing photography camera).

zerocool22 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hopefully sony did invest in a release film, cause all these R5 video's are unwatchable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nezza Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 The event is expected to last more than 20 mins. Just a heads up for any R5 shooters at the event. noone, Simon Young, Trek of Joy and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt3rs Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I’m confused from the rumors if 4k 120 is external only or not? 4k 120 10 bit 600 mbits seems a bit on the thin side especially if it is all-i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
