Want to shoot 4K video on the Alpha 7s? You&#8217;ll need an external recorder<\/h2>\n<p>\u20184K video&#8217; was the phrase on the tips of everyone&#8217;s tongues from the moment the <a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/photo-news\/540538\/sony-alpha-7s-primed-for-summer-debut\">Sony Alpha 7s was announced<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, something that was only lightly touched upon in the promo material, and left out of much of the coverage altogether, was the fact that you can&#8217;t record 4K video with just a Sony Alpha 7s.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike with <a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/reviews\/compactsystemcameras\/129485\/1\/first-look-review-panasonic-lumix-dmc-gh4\">the Panasonic GH4<\/a>, which uses the new UHS I class III SD card format to save data at 30 MB\/s, recording 4K footage with the Sony Alpha 7s requires hooking up a third-party external recording device via HDMI &#8211; that&#8217;s the only way you&#8217;ll get the kind of data gathering capability that 4K requires.<\/p>\n<h2>2. It&#8217;s the first CSC, and second digital camera, to shoot at ISO 409,600&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>Nikon and Sony must be ready to spit blood and teeth at each other. <a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/reviews\/dslrs\/129493\/1\/nikon-d4s-review\">The Nikon D4s<\/a>&#8216;s reign as the only camera to shoot at ISO 409,600 lasted barely a month before the Alpha 7s came bursting through the door after it, shooting at the exact same ISO.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/Nikon_D4S_front_s.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"430\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p><sup><em>Image: Nikon <\/em><\/sup><\/p>\n<h2>3. &#8230; and what&#8217;s more, ISO 409,600 looks surprisingly good<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s pretty common for a camera&#8217;s highest ISO settings to be essentially unusable, and naturally you wouldn&#8217;t expect an ISO as high as 409,600 to be any different.<\/p>\n<p>Sony released a pretty beautiful video showing off the Alpha 7s&#8217;s full ISO range, and what&#8217;s remarkable is how, well, not awful the highest ISO settings look. See for yourself<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<\/p>\n<h2>4. The 12.2MP Exmor sensor can read the entire pixel array without pixel binning<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/n3_img_01.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>The brand new 12.2MP CMOS sensor on the Alpha 7s is (currently) the only full-frame sensor around that can read the entire width of the pixel array for video without pixel binning \u00a0&#8211; which means combining data from a group of pixels into a single pixel.<\/p>\n<p>This unique capability is how the camera is able to capture such high quality video, without moir\u00e9 or false color artifacts.<\/p>\n<h2>5. It can shoot video in super slow-motion<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/sony_alpha_cap2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>High frame-rate shooting of 120 frames per second at standard HD resolution allows for, Sony says, a 5x slow-motion effect. Perfect for sports, fast action, or mocking people&#8217;s facial expressions.<\/p>\n<h2>6. The S-log2 Gamma setting boosts dynamic range in video by 1300%<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/sony_cap.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Sony&#8217;s promotional material promises that activating this proprietary Sony gamma setting will create a whopping 1300% wider dynamic range in video, for smoother gradation and reduced blackout and whiteout. With post-production colour grading, you can enhance the detail even further.<\/p>\n<h2>7. The autofocus system is entirely contrast based&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/24610d4c358b606e3eb2eb2263f27c661.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>While the Alpha 7 made a show of sporting on-sensor phase detection AF, it remains the only camera in the family to do so, with the Alpha 7s sticking with tried-and-tested contrast-detect AF.<\/p>\n<p> Although we don&#8217;t yet know for certain, it&#8217;s likely to be very similar to the contrast-detect AF system we saw on <a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/reviews\/compactsystemcameras\/129465\/8\/sony-alpha-7r-review\">the Alpha 7R<\/a>. if that&#8217;s the case, we shouldn&#8217;t have anything to worry about.<\/p>\n<h2>8. &#8230; and it can perform well in exceptionally low light.<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/n2_img_01_sp.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Sony promises that the Fast intelligent AF will be able to function in extremely poor lighting conditions (-4 EV, ISO 200 with f\/2 lens). Combined with the advanced ISO capability, this should make the camera a serious low light contender.<\/p>\n<h2>9. And finally, the \u2018s&#8217; stands for&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>\u2018Sensitivity&#8217;. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/04\/alpha_7s.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>There, that clears that up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest arrival in Sony&#8217;s Alpha series comes with a host of bells, whistles and functions, not least of which is 4K video.
