So the new a7S Sony, interchangeable lenses and full-frame camera

11/04/2014

So the new 7S Sony, interchangeable lenses and full-frame camera Sensitivity ISO 50409600, a large dynamic range and the first sensor full-frame in the world able to send the information of pixels without pixel binning through HDMI for video and 4 K video output (QFHD: 3840 x 2160), marked the launch of this new camera at NAB 2014.

In the turbulent sea of alternative cameras, Sony did not want to sit out entering the cloth that is marking the emerging competition from the worlds photo and IT. NAB 2014 the multinational Japanese has surprised with the launch of the 7S, capable of capturing photos with professional quality and high sensitivity video recordings.

The Sony 7S joins the 7 and 7R, smaller cameras in the world with interchangeable lenses for full frame, adding a special sensitivity, low noise and a spectacular quality of 4K (3840 2160) image.

Also advisable for both photography and video professionals worried about the costs, the 7S offers spectacular artistic possibilities in the smaller body of any digital camera of interchangeable lenses and full frame in the world.

The key to the extraordinary sensitivity of the 7S lies in the new specially developed 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS image sensor.

With 12.2 effective megapixels, the size of each individual photoreceptor has grown significantly to increase their ability to capture the light. Together with the powerful X camera BIONZ processing engine, you can reduce image noise at the time which increases the effective sensitivity of the 7S range to ISO 50 ISO 409600 in expanded mode (ISO 200-409600 for video).

This sensitivity and noise levels incredibly low allow the 7S to capture delicious images in very low light where it would normally require a more prolonged exposure. Thanks to the enormous sensitivity of the camera, it is possible to capture snapshots and videos sharp, with low noise using higher firing speeds. Its dynamic range is also ideal for high contrast scenes, since it can handle effortlessly rich and deep black and extreme glare on the same frame.

Thanks to the extraordinary sensitivity of the image sensor, the amount of light that can pick up increases dramatically when compared to conventional cameras. The newly developed image sensor provides video photographers/producers a wide dynamic range in any condition, from the most extreme shadows to the brightest sunlight.

Reading data of each pixel in the sensor of 35mm full frame (24 p, 25 p), using the 4K images created by the 7S 4 have an amazing detail, surprisingly rich colors and natural textures in each shot. Exploited to the maximum by the processor BIONZ X, high speed data flow allows for the 7S to offer video to 4K resolution via its HDMI connector with 4:2:2 color sampling, to record on a device external storage or displayed on a compatible monitor.

Full frame

Thanks to the full transmission of all the 35 mm full frame sensor pixels, there is a notable absence of undesired effects of aliasing (moir ) and edges jagged, present in lower resolution videos. Its surprisingly clear images can be recorded on a memory card with quality Full HD in the recording format XAVC S to a bit rate of 50Mbps, a highly valued speed between the producers of video professional. In the mode APS C the 7S supports a high rate of frames of 120 fps or 100 fps with HD resolution (1280 x 720 pixels). 120 FPS recordings can be reproduced to 24 p to achieve an effect slow motion 5 x, perfect for watching every detail of a scene of sports or the fast dance moves.

There is a whole collection of specialized functions to please as Picture Profile professional video producers to open their visual expression and SLog2 gamma. Time code/user features allow you to edit the workflow to professional style, while the XLR microphone adapter Kit allows the acquisition of high quality audio.

Already proven in the 7R, fast autofocus intelligent high speed and high accuracy has improved further to fully exploit new and extraordinary performance in low-light camera.
