Abstract: The A7S III retains Sony's magnesium-alloy body that both dust + moisture resistant. More importantly, there is a graphite heatsink built into the image-stabilization unit that dissipates heat quickly. So you won't run into any Canon EOS R5 overheating is...

Outstanding video and photo quality, 4K 10-bit 120fps video, 5-axis stabilization, Flip-out display, Compact size, Category-leading autofocus,
Price, Relatively low sensor resolution, Summary, Sony's 12.1-megapixel A7S III was worth the five-year wait. It has the same incredible low-light capability of its predecessors, but adds much-needed features like improved stabilization, a flip-out touch
Steve Dent/EngadgetI can't find many faults with this camera. Sony has addressed nearly every complaint I've ever had about previous A7-series cameras, but it didn't just stop there. It also improved autofocus and other features that I already liked, keep...
Extreme low light capabilities, Great autofocus system, The new menu system is a winner, The fully articulating screen is handier than you might think,
The LCD is a little on the small side, The EVF can lag in low light situations, even when on its highest refresh rate settings, Colors can look a little strange over ISO 25,600
Abstract: Much of the coverage already online around the Sony a7s III has been in use for video. Naturally, we're a photography first website–and the photographers I've known who've used the predecessors to the Sony a7s III mostly did street photography, documentar...
Amazing real world video specs, Incredible low light performance, Stunning AF, even for video
No 6K or 8K video, Still images only 12MP, No waveform monitoring
It's taken Sony five years to upgrade the video-centric A7S II to a Mark III, but the wait has been worth it for keen enthusiast and professional moviemakers. It might not boast 6K or 8K video resolution of some of its rivals, and with only 12.1MP it's no...

Sony kept us waiting five years for the third model in the A7S series, but it certainly doesn't disappoint. It may stick with the 12 Megapixel resolution of its predecessors to maximise sensitivity, but employs a new sensor with confident phase-detect aut...
While it is primarily aimed at videographers, the Sony AS III is still able to shoot stills and could appeal to photographers looking for a low-light camera, As you'd expect, the A7S III can shoot raw and Jpeg images but Sony has also included the option
12Mp seems low resolution for stills, Uses a new memory card format (CFexpress Type A) that's interchangeable with SD
Sony hasn't gone for the head-turning 8K video resolution of the Canon EOS R5, but it makes some very attractive upgrades to the A7S II. The high-resolution viewfinder, vari-angle screen, re-thought menus and upgraded autofocus systems are of particular n...
Abstract: One notable modification on the A7S III, however, is the relocation of the movie record button to the top of the camera. Replacing, or at least taking over the default functionality of the "C1" custom function button seen on the other A7/R-series cameras...
