    Also no true 24p just 23.976? Maybe a firmware thing.

  • the limit is due to "overheating" but thats something we have to see! maybe is a marketing low kick to canon 30 minute limit

  • Is there a single adapter that will allow me to use my Minolta glass on this cam?
    Nevermind I see metabones will take all my cash.

  • @paglez where do you see 30 minute limit?
    "No recording time limit allows for unlimited clip lengths and the camera's physical design features an improved heat-dissipating structure to promote longer possible recording times; longer than 30 minutes for 8K 30p or 4K 60p videos, or recordings done at 10-bit 4:2:0." (from BHPhoto...)

  • $6500

    Hmmmm....

  • 8k mode, 30 min limit.

  • "4k 4:2:2 10 bit up to 120fps (max 600mps)

    FHD 4:2:2 10 bit up to 240fps (max 200mps)

    no recording limit"

    Exactly the same as the a7s iii. So, if you understand why 8K is useless and are interested in video, this new camera adds little in video capability to the a7s iii, and will have much worse low-light performance (much smaller pixels).

    It's funny course I very much like the colors, tones and details. Maybe our eyes have a different perception. :)

  • Long time I don't see such awful skin tones.

    the dancer's face switches from yellow to pink/red never nailing a proper natural skin colour.

    Dynamic range is quite poor too, with black dark areas in exteriors.

    Maybe it's just bad post production..

    No idea who can get excited by this demo.

  • 8k 4:2:0 10 bit up to 30fps (max 400mps)

    4k 4:2:2 10 bit up to 120fps (max 600mps)

    FHD 4:2:2 10 bit up to 240fps (max 200mps)

    no recording limit

    no wallet limit (new alfa can make holes on wallet beware)

  • This is a killer one! Wow.

    grate DR grate resolution. They sure know how to make sensors.
