  • Abstract:  Hay cámaras que por su buen hacer nos van ganando poco a poco y acaban por convencernos. Otras, por el contrario, parece que apenas necesitan de unas horas para conquistarnos y llevarnos a similares percepciones de plenitud y satisfacción. La nueva Sony A...

  • Qualité d'image jusqu'à 12 800 ISO, Monte jusqu'à 409 600 ISO, en photo et en vidéo , Capteur 24 x 36 mm stabilisé, Qualité de construction, Viseur électronique confortable, Peut fonctionner de manière totalement silencieuse, Fourni avec deux batteries e
  • Menus ésotériques, Focale non renseignée dans les EXIF lorsque des objectifs manuels sont utilisés, Faible autonomie (250 vues au mieux), Écran non tactile, AF en léger recul par rapport à l'A7S, Allumage toujours lent
  • Le Sony Alpha 7S II est un très beau boîtier, efficace, souple, onctueux, fidèle même lorsque la lumière vous abandonne. Avec son capteur stabilisé au rendu chatoyant, ses solides aptitudes vidéographiques et son silence de fonctionnement, il vous fera vi...

  • Arrivée de la stabilisation 5 axes chez les alpha,  Autofocus hybride,  Meilleur codec vidéo (XAVC-S),  Equipement toujours au niveau,  Capteur plein format
  • Nouveau grip,  Pas de vidéo 4K,  Un peu plus cher que la version précédente à sa sortie
  • Version améliorée de l'Alpha A7, l'a7 Mark II corrige certaines de ses faiblesses et introduit la stabilisation mécanique du capteur ainsi qu'une ergonomie plus soignée et plus pro. La qualité de fabrication perçue fait un joli bond et si les performances...
