DETAILS

The Sony Alpha a7S II Mirrorless Digital Camera allows you to shoot 4K internally with built-in stabilization and 169 autofocus points, an upgrade from the original a7S, which required the use of an external recorder for 4K. The relatively low megapixel count sensor of the a7S II is designed specifically for video recording and features a full sensor readout without any of the line skipping found in very large megapixel-count cameras. You will see a sharp footage devoid of major aliasing and moiré when recording internally in 4K. The 4K recording capabilities is paired with a redeveloped recording setup, including the ability to use S-Log3 Gamma and S-Gamut3 in addition to S-Log2 for increased dynamic range values by up to 1300% to better match high-end post-production workflows.

This camera also features multiple timecode recording options to match different workflows. Focus peaking to aid in manual focusing, zebra markers to help judge overexposure, and an audio level overlay for mixing audio are among the qualities that make working with the a7S II desirable, along with its svelte size. With an ISO expandable from 50 to 409600, this camera is well suited to shooting in low light conditions thanks to a new RGB color filter array, as well as a gapless on-chip lens design, which allows for low noise, high-sensitivity recording.

The a7S II, while still suitable for still shooting, is designed with videographers in mind and is especially designed for low-light video shooting. For high resolution, high detail landscape or portrait still shooting, the a7R and the a7R II are recommended.

NOTES

• The a7S II is a full frame E mount camera but is fully compatible with crop frame E mount lenses when the camera is in APS-C crop mode.

• This rental is for the camera only and does not include a lens.

• We make every attempt to have a fully charged battery for you but we can’t guarantee it 100%. If you need a fully charged battery, please request it via the order notes. Battery life is approximately 55-100 minutes during continuous movie capture or around 310-370 still frames.

• A Class 10 or higher SDHC/SDXC card is required for XAVC S format movie recording. UHS Speed Class 3 or higher card is required for 100Mbps recording.

• This camera is compatible with the Sony VG-C2EM Battery Grip (which is not included).

• Continuous video shooting is possible for approximately 30 minutes.

Special Note on Internal 4K Shooting:

Internal 4K recording is not possible when in APS-C crop mode. When you switch to movie mode or start recording a movie with [File Format] set to [XAVC S 4K], [APS-C/Super 35mm] is locked to [Off]. If you are planning to shoot 4K, please use full frame E mount lenses. If you want to use lenses in other mounts, make sure they are full frame capable and used along with a full frame capable adapter.
