GMaximus Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I think it's just started, we're going to see new footage every day now. 1GB MOV file available for download. Looks like ISO3200 would be clean --- Nice colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronChicago Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Looks pretty good. Nothing I have seen so far that's better than the GH4 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfreerider Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 It's early days, but I see a lot of potential in the A7s image. But I have a problem with its the pretty extreme rolling shutter. It's just been measured to 30.5ms, which is probably the worst RS since the Nikon D90 at 33ms. The GH4 is about 13ms. So the A7s will need very careful handling.

jgharding Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The more i play with the footage the more i want it. It's like Alexa in some way after careful handling... but I think I prefer it in some ways. Don't tell anyone though. The noise is pretty high on S-Log when you pause, but in motion it's fine. Rolling shutter is so sad though. True to form, Sony have one feature that really sucks in an otherwise excellent product :( such a slow read time at 12MP. Maybe it's a heat issue in the small body?

lafilm Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 JG - I don't think it's the heat. Don't think they put much effort into controlling RS - (had to laugh at my own joke - you're right, it's god awful). Why would they make a product better than their own F55? Would not make logical sense. No? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgharding Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 The colour tones in A7s are so cool in tone. For some reason it can't do green properly. But nor can my favorite 35mm stock, the cheapo Kodak Ultramax 400. All the trees and so on have a weird plastic look, but to be honest the overall tonality is more film-like in feeling. It doesn't feel "real", but it feels really really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxotics Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Here are a couple of interesting posts at dpreview about why the a7S has superior shadow detail at high ISO but, as some people have experienced, a reduction in low-ISO DR compare to a7 or a7R. http://***URL removed***/forums/post/53959496 http://***URL removed***/forums/post/53959763 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
