raf702 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I honest came from an fs100, and i liked it very much. Ease of use, and has all the video/audio features you need to start shooting. Sure it has it's limits, specifically highlight roll off is pretty bad. I always did my best to avoid shooting something that had white or else it would clip bad. Overall image is really good, but there's cameras out there that are better for that type of price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqm Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 i dealed the price down to 1k with 3 original batteries....how does it compore to the a7s ? short of low light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ebrahim Saadawi Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 It's still excellent of course. It's a real video camera, with actual XLRs, mic handle, top handle, audio knobs, buttons for every single function, rotatable grip, long lasting power, unlimitied recording times, timecode and genlock, these are the advantages over an a7s, plus the pro look if your clients want that. A7s has a newer bigger FF sensor, with a s35 crop mode, t has better lowlight performance at very high ISOs (fs100 is no slough either), it has S-Log, 4k output to external device, and it's much smaller and lighter. The overal image is apparently a bit better in resolution and noise, It depends on which of these you care most about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff CB Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 For a grand it's a steal, definitely pic it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
