Enjoy the light, love the dark – The Sony A7s Full Review

10/09/2014 By Mathieu

The announcement of the Sony A7s back in April was a surprise for everyone, even the various rumour sites, which are always on top of the most recent leaks. For me, it was the camera I had been hoping to see from Sony, a camera that would concentrate less on megapixels and more on other features. But to desire a camera with specific specs is one thing, to try it and see what it can do in real conditions is another.

It is also important to understand if these new features, however amazing they be, can really make a difference to the photographer. This is why I’ll cut to the chase right now and say that this camera produces outstanding low-light results and that 102400 ISO is usable. You probably knew that already anyway, so I won’t repeat it further.

Telling a story with 1 camera & 1 prime: the Fringe Festival with the Sony A7s & 55mm

11/08/2014 By Mathieu

Photographers usually love to own a wide range of lenses that suit different purposes and different occasions but I also think that limiting ourselves to one focal length can sometimes be a good exercise. In my case, the ‘one focal length’ exercise was actually the only option for me with the Sony A7s because I currently own only one lens for the system, the 55mm f/1.8.

Through the Cat’s Eye – A Sony A7s High ISO Mini Project

23/07/2014 By Heather

Do you see anything special about the cat portraits below? If not, I won’t be surprised or offended. At first glance, we have a series of simple images of the most photographed animal in the world in its natural home environment. Many of the photos appear to have been taken during the day, with light streaming in through the windows.

Shooting with the Dark Knight – First Impressions of the Sony A7s

14/07/2014 By Mathieu

I’m not going to hide the fact that the Sony A7s is a camera that I’ve been eagaerly awaiting ever since I first heard the news of its existence. While I enjoyed shooting with the A7 and A7r and appreciated their wonderful image quality, at the time of their announcement the first thing I wrote was: why not draw a more drastic line between the two cameras? Why not have a “Nikon D4 like” sensor with amazing sensitivity in low light?

Sony has no limits! The new A7s is announced!

08/04/2014 By Mathieu

When I first tried the recently released Sony A7 and A7r, I wondered why Sony didn’t differentiate more substantially between the two cameras by giving the A7 less megapixels but a vaster ISO range. The answer is now very clear:  a third camera, called Sony A7s, where the “s” stands for sensitivity, was on its way.

It also included interesting video capabilities with a 4k recording option and professional settings that filmmakers will surely appreciate.
