the low light king - sony menus and battery life are terrible - buy a ton of sony brand batterys , the cheap stuff doesnt last very long after a few months - one of the best features is being able to zoom in to check focus while recording video

Bought to capture aurora borealis live video and its great up to 50k iso ( gives 2 to 3 stops more than my canon 6d ) beyond that dissapointing with red/magenta corners/edges apparently a known issue with the A7S sensor. Not much to do about it but to crop, or stay away from the highest ISOs.

Beat up this camera on some very rugged shoots. Super durable. Extremely high quality, and amazing image. Keeping the sensor clean is a very delicate process; be extra careful!

A great cam. Independent film makers can rely on this.

Im a video guy and I love using DSLR and Mirrorless cams when i travel so I don't get excess attention when filming, I also shoot corporate/ interview. and events. I tend to shoot at night/ dark environments and have come from the world of Canon cameras.

If you're coming from a Canon, you'll know the ergonomics are terrible on this camera, the ease of use is not so good, but there are Youtube vids to help, definitely look for an external battery source and a cage to help with ergonomics.

After 3 weeks with an A7S + a LA-EA4 and a Sony 50mm F1.4 and a Battery Grip ... I can say that I'm in love with this camera. Every photo we took are so nice, so colored, noiseless with a great IQ ... This camera is a toy that says : take photo, take photo, take photo !

Traveling around Europe at the moment. Used it in Cork 11 pm. The town was glowing. It was like daylight.

I am professional photographer. I bought the Sony A7S to try it. Surely it is an amazing camera, but I am going to sell it for the following reasons: I can't stand how uncomfortable is the grip with the shutter button put straight up in vertical...

Bought this camera at Adorama in NYC and I am not in Brazil and Sony does not provide access to their Playmemories site from overseas, so I can't buy and download their app for time-lapse, unless I return to the US and download from there.
