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.
This video was just what I needed to start my day on a positive note. Thanks @BrandonLi for showcasing the beauty of my State, I especially enjoyed the White Sands shoots, that moonlight was pure magic!
i love how every path she takes gave a different mood. and it is so wonderful. i almost forgot this video was all about a7s3 cause i am so focused on the story. great moonlight shot!
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.
Lets be honest This is was far the best review of this camera in youtube.. I like how he mainted the natural colors that are almost straight frok the camera..unlike others who just blast teal and orange or some other crap luts
This piece was amazing man .. really differentiated itself from all the other stuff we saw coming out from others who tested it. Certainly achieved answering the "should I" question if anyone had one.
You have shown us such brilliance in past that this video just seemed ok. You have raised your benchmark to the sky, now it is hard to digest something below that benchmark
Videos like this make me superrr amped about film and progressing my skills. But videos like THIS ONE make me feel really overwhelmed about how far behind I am when I look at how good the footage, coloring & crispness
This is so good they should rename it “SonyA7s Li” you’re such an inspiration Brandon. I just make videos with my iPhone but I always apply all what I’m learning from you. Thank you!!
I think you are very talented director. Having the skill like yourself, not because of this camera, I think you can pull off this awesome movies from any camera!
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 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...
Am I the only one who is continuously watching this video even I don't have a DSLR camera.. 🙄🙄 I love the way he explains everything makes so easy to understand 🤘
Hi Brandon this is the first time I heard of you as I only do photos. I'm blown away impressed with your video and your skills and of course this new super video camera Sony A7S III. My nephew does filming and has been waiting for this camera for a long time.
Another amazing video from an incredibly talented filmmaker. I honestly wasn't planning on watching the behind the scenes afterward, but I was pulled in with your concise, informative breakdown of the footage and gear. Really great work, and super educational. Definitely one of my inspirations!
Thank you for this great video. I did turn off picture profile. Then, I go in creative style but I can’t go at sharpness-7. It goes from0 to 9 Any clue ?

love the Camera Conspiracies reference ;)
I was sooo waiting for your video with the new Sony after sll the others had their reviews out.
haha, "All I /we want is the perfect camera, all we want is the perfect caaameraaa" (and more Mr.Li movies and insights. :-)
Standard mode dual gain is at ISO 1600. Slog is 16000
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!
Sorry Brandon, we all know its not the camera, its you !!!!
Mate! I've seen you walking like ninja making an iPhone shoot look like CGI magic
Ditto, came here for Brandon... couldn't care less about the A7SIII
Team work
true!! he is a genius!!
totally agree he is amassing
The sound design is out of this world, happened to have headphones on and wow.
I'm going to remember Crossroads and what it made me feel for a long time, thank you.

1:39 is stunning!!!
4:30AM here in Rome, couldn't get to sleep, so I decided to watch 1 last video, it was worth it! greetings from Italy

Man, you milk every drop out of filming with a gimbal. The more of your work I view, the more I appreciate your efforts. Great job...
This is the greatest video I have seen in my entire life

Telling a story in a short time excites me ...and you always does this .
that shot at @1:21 with thunder in the background!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
ROLLING SHUTTER!!! jk i agree it's amazing
Brandon Li, did you say "girl friend"? Dang, she's trekked all over and posed for all your movies -- level it up, dude!! 💍💍💍
I mean..^he has a point... 🤷🏼♂️
она с ним спит. Но никому ни слова. Ok
@@Luka_Film Lol!
Yeah, like...Her name is already Lee, just tweak it to Li and BOOM.
You have shown us such brilliance in past that this video just seemed ok. You have raised your benchmark to the sky, now it is hard to digest something below that benchmark
Brandon, you're a true inspiration! The video was so beautifully shot and edited.
You are an phenom when it comes to cinematography. It looks better than Hollywood films
An honest and amazing review of the camera. Sony killed it on this one.
Yeah! I see pro mist filters in action! :) I love them. Perfect combo with siii. Also beautiful compositions, I think is my favourite so far.
The lightnings behind her 😍😍😍
Videos like this make me superrr amped about film and progressing my skills. But videos like THIS ONE make me feel really overwhelmed about how far behind I am when I look at how good the footage, coloring & crispness
How can i set sharpness to -7 in creative profile? Mine has from 0 to 9!!!
i really drooling with the videos from this Camera . wow jsut wow
This is so good they should rename it “SonyA7s Li” you’re such an inspiration Brandon. I just make videos with my iPhone but I always apply all what I’m learning from you. Thank you!!
grabe utak nito ni brandon idol.
I know right
The light and colours at 6:26 are nothing short of orgasmic. I wish to master gimbal movements and lighting like you Brandon. You're awesome!
I love Brandon's dedication... he's very passionate about his craft and gear...
Brandon is one the few on RUclips that can make a cinematic video and tell good stories without relying on slowmo all the time 👌🏼👍🏻💪🏼
This is incredible. This is by far the best sony a7s3 video I've seen. The colors and cinematography looks so good.
I bought my A7s3 after watching this video a couple of years ago. I am still a geek over your color grade. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks! As explained in the video I didn’t grade
Very happy to see your thoughts on this camera. I preordered it 2 weeks ago..., I honestly cannot wait to get my hands on it... cannot wait
I think you are very talented director. Having the skill like yourself, not because of this camera, I think you can pull off this awesome movies from any camera!
you are still my hero after the years and the youtubers. I hope you keep doing what you are doing for years on end.
The A7SIII is just cherry on top.
wow - moonlight shots are magical
That rolling focus shot over the field of greens (oregano?), stopping at the house in the background? Yeah.
Brandon’s style, never stop moving and effortlessly flowing from scene to scene.
The low light on this Sony A7S3 is such a beast!!!
Wow what an incredible film!
You are a genius. Periode. And you must to live with that.

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.

That's definitely New Mexico. I grew up there. Good stuff man.
It always makes my day when a new Brandon Li video comes out! Thank you 🙏
U stole my heart when that moon light desert shot came😍
Man, those night shots! I watched this on my TV with hdr, this looked like a music video, colours popped so well. Great work dude.
when I watch the passion of Andalucia from that moment biggest fan of your works
those night shots with full moon dangggggggg
the best video of the sony ArsIII they have created ... amazing Brandon ..
Dynamic range is insane!)
Sony find right man😊😊😊
Am I the only one who is continuously watching this video even I don't have a DSLR camera.. 🙄🙄 I love the way he explains everything makes so easy to understand 🤘
Beautiful ❤ So natural and the emotion is 🔥
0:43 THE best shot in the video. 🤠
according to the colours I agree with you, but for the effort of capture it and the feeling I prefer 1:22 :)
Beautiful as always li. The clarity we can get from our devices now is just so good......being a creative now is just so much more obtainable.
Your film making simplicity has made you a star.. you are always an inspiration to me.. Thanks for the video
Bro you are an awsome cinematographer. The low light tho is what I think makes this camera one of the best.
Well done! Beautiful!
what to say, I love it! High sense of freedom
the compressed lightning shot !!!
1:40 🔥🔥🔥 Damn, I’m definitely going to invest into this.
The scenario is fantastic...with the moonlight shooting..all the camera movements was awesome 👏
How that shot in the night! In the dark 😮 Sony's cameras in the dark just really make me impressed!
Sony is killing it.
this gives me so much inspiration i can't even begin to explain.
Awesome Brandon! You touched on things I haven’t heard anyone else talk about yet.
Felt so much emotion from this video... Superb.
you and philip bloom, only A7SIII reviews that matter to me cuz you are really using it to make great films.
Good to see that I am not the only one who’s overloading the final video because of having many cool footage :) btw. Great shots !!!
This was amazing. Thank you ! So inspirational
Our kind of shooting. Great to see you in action, Brandon. Sweet stuff and great BTS!
Showcases the camera exceptionally. Also makes me realize just how much time and travel is involved in these films. To say nothing of the talent.
Thats Amazing work Brandon 👏🙌❤
Wow this is what I am waiting for, works of Brandon Li on this cam . Great work!
A true master of your craft Mr Li.
You really won the lottery with this one. The camera and video stuff is cool too 🖤🖤
Impressive vivid weather reel, difficult to operate, you make it look simple though.
Its amazing what you can do Solo, Its quite astonishing Brandon . Good Work
The image is so cinematic. Dynamic range and highlight rolloff looks great.
P.S. The film was so good it almost made me cry
This looks amazing 😍😍😍
Congratulation Brandon!! I instantly fall in love with your film. Great performance, great location, and great music!!
Awesome video Brandon, great job and great camera🙂

Hi Brandon this is the first time I heard of you as I only do photos. I'm blown away impressed with your video and your skills and of course this new super video camera Sony A7S III. My nephew does filming and has been waiting for this camera for a long time.
Brandon bro! you are amazing. this video has alot to learn from you.
Autofocus in moonlight: impressive! If only it had the Canon R5/R6 amazing new IBIS!
This is a amazing story telling short film, Hoping it can be watched by everyone confused in the world crisis.
Thunder out of nowhere and white sand dunes, this is so New Mexico
Such an extraordinary talent. I always look forward to watching your films. So inspiring!!
that full moon clip slays it man
Absolutely Remarkable🔥
I love your behind the scene videos. I think they really help a lot of people with confidence. Thanks dude!
Great job Brandon, you've made my mind up
Another amazing video from an incredibly talented filmmaker. I honestly wasn't planning on watching the behind the scenes afterward, but I was pulled in with your concise, informative breakdown of the footage and gear. Really great work, and super educational. Definitely one of my inspirations!
Thank you for this great video.
I did turn off picture profile.
Then, I go in creative style but I can’t go at sharpness-7. It goes from0 to 9
Any clue ?
Spectacular Spectacular.
Brandon you're love. Amaazing!!
