eBay listing says NTSC/Pal, which implies it’s the Asian-Pacific model of the camera (import). I think the “USA” of the listing is just referring to the fact the eBay seller is in the USA.
That’s completely false, all Sony A7s cameras let you choose between NTSC/PAL.
I have a USA version in front of me. It does not have the PAL/NTSC selctor in the setup menu. I’ve had the Asia-Pacific version before and it did have the selector.
Yeah, definitely not an US model and you won’t get US warranty. Pretty much anything below MSRP is grey market.
If you click on the eBay link in the article, it clearly states that it is a NEW USA Factory Sealed Box AND it comes with a warranty.
It reads “1 Year Seller Warranty”. It’s not a USA Model and will not be serviced under warranty by Sony.
Yes, a “1 year seller warranty.”
Did you find “NJ Accessory” on Sony’s authorized dealer list anywhere?
Just another grey market “deal.”
In addition to what has already been said in previous replies – Sony only honors warranty work for cameras sold by Sony Authorized retailers.
So this MIGHT be a “USA” camera.. but it’s not going to have a USA warranty on it.. it’s a “domestic grey” product in this case.
I wish SAR would stop posting these.. they are NOT good deals and will more than likely leave people feeling screwed if the camera needs a repair.
Shut up and enjoy “freedom”.
I believe this is a 50i model. So in addition to not having a warranty, you get a fun “NTSC mode” warning every time you turn the camera on. I recently purchased this deal from “fumfie.com”, and hope to return it, as a result. It seems there’s a wealth of grey market A7s in the NY/NJ area.
So you see what a ripoff the US market is.
Too bloody expensive! Aussies sold this for a lot less, less than a month ago!
I bought one for $20 in a Walmart parking lot.
What a coincidence.. I bought your mom in a Walmart parking lot for $20!
I think you got the better deal tho.. :-/
Sorry, she don’t do gay dudes.
How do you explain your father then?
Feeling clever eh?
Waiting for an actual sale on the A7s… especially since I am in Canada. Any ideas when there will be an official price drop on the A7s?
Keep dropping looking for $1,500
My new price is $900.
Looking for $50
scum
Put the sweet phase detect beans on this sensor and I am on board.
that’s crazy! I might just buy another one 😉
Imagine if they released an A7s II with IBIS and reduced rolling shutter. The Mk 1 models will really see a price drop then.
thats exactly whats going to happen..and why i STILL cant buy it..because as soon as i do, BAM, a7sII
is going to be announced..
Do you think there will come a day when cameras have 20 stops of dynamic range? Do you think they’ll then have a creative filter affect entitled (Blown Highlight Affect). I bet they will….I bet they will.
No, since the universe in which we live doesn’t even have that dynamic range. The difference between a supernova and a black hole is about 18 stops, I believe.
According to Cambridge in Color:
The human eye can actually perceive a greater dynamic range than is ordinarily possible with a camera. If we were to consider situations where our pupil opens and closes for varying light, our eyes can see over a range of nearly 24 f-stops.
On the other hand, for accurate comparisons with a single photo (at constant aperture, shutter and ISO), we can only consider the instantaneous dynamic range (where our pupil opening is unchanged). This would be similar to looking at one region within a scene, letting our eyes adjust, and not looking anywhere else. For this scenario there is much disagreement, because our eye’s sensitivity and dynamic range actually change depending on brightness and contrast. Most estimate anywhere from 10-14 f-stops.
24 f-stops is not the same as 24 stops (24 EV). One f-stop is usually half a stop, so the 18 stops (18 EV) I mentioned would be 36 f-stops.
No.
None of this matters. Sony will sample it down to 11+7 bits as they do with all of their mirrorless cameras today.
Also, if you go to their site, it’s $1845. http://www.njaccessory.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=224486&osCsid=ec8df7b49d962622be719c626e72810d
