Sony Alpha A7S III Compact System Camera (Body Only)

The technical details behind this camera

Designed for the working professional or high-end enthusiast, and delivering an ultra sensitive, ultra stable shooting platform, the A7S III empowers the most discerning of users to master the art of videography and cinematography. The A7S III incorporates a myriad of usable features into a familiar yet oh so refined design. Sony refers to the camera with the tagline "Imagination in Motion" and this is pretty much the best summary of this camera we could possibly think of to describe its capability and power as a creative tool.

Super Sensitive

One of the major selling features of the predecessor A7S II was its supreme sensitivity and the A7S III continues the tradition, offering a standard ISO range of 80- to a whopping 102400. This impressive number offers usable options for the videographer shooting handheld in low light and is one of the many reasons the S Series has such a purist fan base. The Alpha 7S III has been built with an entirely new Exmor R image sensor expanded for a new stills and movie shooting experience. The full-frame 12.1-megapixel back-illuminated CMOS image sensor delivers high sensitivity, low noise, a colour filter array that boosts colour reproduction accuracy, and an increased dynamic range for both stills and movies.

Stunning quality 4K video

The new image processing engine BIONZ XR is aimed at the future, augmenting the high sensitivity and wide dynamic range that have already become hallmarks of the "S" series. Utilising this incredible processing ability allows for 10-bit 4:2:2 video recording at 4K resolution 120 frames/second and 240 frames/second in FHD, while taking full advantage of Sony's autofocus and autoexposure. The A7S III offers no recording time limits in all movie modes and improved heat dissipation allowing 4K60P video recording for over an hour until battery ends. And a full spectrum of professional video features like 10-bit 4:2:2 colour sampling during internal video recording and the ability to simultaneously display stunning video across three displays. The digital audio interface and the improved weather sealing and heat dissipation.

Super Stable

When a clear shot of a moving object is how you make your money, you need to depend on the autofocus system. Onboard you will discover the advantages of the 759 Phase-detect AF points and 425 Contrast-detect AF points and improved AI-based Real-time Eye autofocus in stills and movie mode all designed to improve subject tracking. The A7S III delivers an impressive 5.5 steps (CIPA) of image stabilisation with new Active Mode stabilisation and every element of this camera is ready for action under all conditions.
