    This video will give you my overall thoughts, but I'll be posting a longer a7siii review with more sample footage soon! But the short answer is: this camera rocks. This is what happens when camera companies take their time, listen to the customers, and don't cripple (hammer) their features. I love it!

      Brandon Li Very nice work! What lenses did you use? Shooting on a gimbal with accurate autofocus, shallow depth are my priorities like you have done here. What would be the first 3 lenses to buy for A7S 3 you would recommend? Thank you so much!

    Tear jerker in two minutes flat. That's all that matters at the end of the day. Beautiful? Yes. Well executed? Yes. Unique? Yes. But most importantly, all components of craft are brought together here in harmony to create an emotional sensation which gives value to the tech stuff. Bravo. Thank you Sir.

    Wow...after watching a number GOOD reviews from other RUclipsrs, to me this is the most practical, real-world experience, review I have seen. The reason is, you review the camera with your specific application in mind, not just by stating the tech specs.

  • @1234filmsgr
    @1234filmsgr 4 года назад

    First of all kudos for all the hard work over there. Older tests I have conducted in my a6000 regarding noise and various shooting modes showed me that although generally DRO is a useful tool, it always adds a certain amount of noise that cannot be easily removed in post. Turning it off and recovering shadows at post seems a better solution if you want to avoid the initial noise pattern. Also everyone should keep in mind that turning up the shadows so much (+9) in a shooting profile could be sometimes convenient for SOOC results but again might lead to unwanted noise at the final image. It's about balancing the whole thing as every shooting situation/environment is unique. Thanks for sharing.

    • @BrandonLiUnscripted
      @BrandonLiUnscripted  4 года назад +1

      Thanks for your thoughts, that’s why I was careful to mention that the noise pattern is the same in slog 3 without DRO or shadow adjustments.

    • @1234filmsgr
      @1234filmsgr 4 года назад

      @@BrandonLiUnscripted thanks Brandon, if you asked me, I would always prefer a somewhat noisy image that carries the feeling and power of the moment over a technically "perfect" but sterile capture, I think especially everyone in wedding videography can confirm my thoughts 😁, many of us even add that extra noise with plugins during the editing to achieve a film like look...
