  • Abstract:  While we've seen a similar ISO range from the Nikon D4s, the Sony A7S's bigger pixels and special sensor architecture promise significantly lower noise levels. As always, we'll withhold judgment until we have a chance to test a sample in our lab, but we'r...

  • The A7S is an incredible camera that excels at shooting in low-light. The camera has proven itself to be tough; it's designed to withstand less-than-ideal weather conditions while delivering excellent image quality that was previously only achievable with...

  • Shoots 4K video, Excellent in low light, Huge, bright OLED viewfinder
  • 4K recording requires external device, 12.2MP sensor seems limiting for stills, Very expensive
  • The A7s isn't for everyone. It's Sony's priciest compact system camera – and yet it feels specialised towards low-light shooting and professional video. It's very good at both of those things, but given the outlay required you'd expect it to be.With the A...
