Sony Alpha 7S III Specifications and Features
Unveiled back in July, the Alpha 7S III comes with a 12.1MP full-frame Exmor R CMOS BIS image sensor and new BIONZ XR image processing engine. The camera can shoot 4K videos at up to 120-pixel and 1080p videos at up to 240-pixel but misses out on the 8K recording capabilities of its predecessor. It also comes with 5-axis in-body image stabilization for crystal clear pictures even without a tripod. The Alpha 7S III features a flip-out 3-inch LCD touchscreen display and a redesigned menu system. It has an ISO scale of 40-to-409,600 and offers a hybrid auto-focus system with 759 point Phase detection AF sensors covering 92% of the image sensor. The camera also comes with real-time eye AF and real-time tracking.
Video recording capabilities include 4K 120-pixel with 10-bit depth and 4:2:2 sampling. Available recording modes include All-Intra and MPEG-H HEVC/H.265 coding (XAVC HS). It also allows up to 4K 60-pixel 16-bit RAW output to an external recorder via HDMI Type-A connector for additional post-production flexibility. Finally, the camera also comes with a new ‘MRW-G2’ card slot that is compatible with the new CFexpress Type A memory cards along with the standard SDXC/SDHC (UHS-I and UHS-II) options. You can learn more about the camera on the official Sony India website.
