Felipe: “My name is Felipe, I’m a filmmaker from Salvador – BA (Brazil) and I’ve just shot a promo video for a rap artist on the a7S, really trying to take advantage of its low light capabilities. I have to say I’m quite impressed with the camera’s dynamic range using S-Log2 and the way it handles incredibly high ISO. The video is really dark, mostly black & red, and Youtube kinda messed the final result with their compression, but the images out of the camera and end results after grading are quite amazing.
Here’s the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQtIh9qn-ic“

Very helpful review from Ian Norman.
Hey Andrea,
Any updates as to when the 14bit firmware update will be released?
Npth Petapixel and Image sensor world blogspot have recently posted articles about the Qanta sensor being developed at Dartmouth by tje inventor of the CMOS.
A censor the s ok of current sensors counys virtually every photon striking it, with abouy a bilion jots.
The “pixels ” are actually called JOTS.
Readouts are counted hundreds of thousands of times per second and terrabytes of data are collected every second.
Manufacturing would be compatable with CMPS and not excessively expensive.
Currently processing this huge volume of data presents problems.
The research has been going on for a long time, and it will be a while before it is ready to actually be produced, but such a sensor is likely to be the final endgame for sensor development.
Sony is currently the sensor leader, but if a competitor like Canon for example could gain exclusive rights to this technology and make it work first…it could possibly be game over for Sony.
On another note Sony has just acquired Softkinetic, sighned licensing agreement with Melexis, and is combining Sony CIS with Time of Flight Camera tech for actual new products as we speak.
Production will be in Sony wafer production facility.
