Comment on the forum The FX6 slogan should be Miss Every Shot (while fiddling with the menus).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xI7gNQ8Jc14 Comment on the forum The Sony A7S series has always been considered the leader in low light at very high ISOs.

Comment on the forum Sony has confirmed that the A7S III is finally on the way this Summer, likely in July to coincide with the big Canon rivals – EOS R5 and R6. I have some more information on what we can expect from the new flagship full frame mirrorless cameras.
Comment on the forum Does Sony plan to be stone dead last for video specs much longer? Yes, stone dead last.
