Here I wanna share some test footages I shot on Sony A7S II. I’m carrying two Sony body for my filming this time in the Himalayas, A7R II and A7S II. So far I love the 4K footages produced by these tiny machines and I love the internal stabilizer too. Almost all the footages are handheld and the movement is super smooth after stabilized further in post!
For the videos, I shot mostly with PP8 (Slog 3) and it gives great detail of highlight and shadow. But I’m still struggling trying to master the Sony system since I’m so used to filming with raw with Canon + Magic Lantern and the Blackmagic for years. After layers and layers in After Effects I still find it far from perfect. And I still have no idea about the flickering problem in some shots. Anyway I think they’re great cameras and if you have good connection, do check out the test footages in 4K (2160p). Enjoy Bhutan in 4K! ))
