User Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 With no heat sync being attached to the sensor because of the IBS process, I‘m curious who here already thinks that the camera is going to have overheating issues in 4K? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBounce Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Didn't they already state that it will perform the same as the A7Rii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRenaissanceMan Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Didn't they already state that it will perform the same as the A7Rii?Won't the processor run cooler with less pixels to process and downsize? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Kotlos Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Didn't they already state that it will perform the same as the A7Rii?It was one of Sony's representatives belief nothing official yet (which I doubt they will do for A7rii sake). A7sii and A7rii have the same weight so unless the a7s sensor does not produce as much heat (doubtful because of the extra heats sink that was necessary in the A7s) I expect at least some heat issues but maybe not as much as a7rii. Won't the processor run cooler with less pixels to process and downsize?In FF mode they end up with the same # of pixels, but it could be the case cause A7rii has to downsample each line in FF mode. I could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanuel Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 AFAIK they warn for overheating in the manual as same as happens with the a7RII. At least, that's what I read. The heating comes from the processing, not from the sensor, or the external recording wouldn't be the only solution (when triggered from outside).

User Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 Thank you for you comments gentlemen. All good info.For the price, size and image the A7rii & A7sii camera are unique and I really want to like them. Unfortunately I feel they are so full of bugs for run and gun doc work.Overheating, screen dimming after hitting record, lame battery life etc. Sony really know how cripple what could be a real powerhouse.
