Sony to Add Uncompressed RAW and Enhance Phase Detect AF on the A7 II

November 5, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Sony A7 II

After Sony’s recent firmware update to the A7R II, which added uncompressed RAW capture, Sony is also bringing the feature to the A7 II. Additionally, Sony will add on-sensor phase detection AF operation to the A7 II for faster and more precise autofocus on Sony A-mount system and other lenses using an adapter.

The uncompressed RAW capture will be a new menu options (just like it is on the A7R II after its most recent update) and compressed RAW will still be an option for those who want to save a little storage space.

This new firmware version 2.0 will be available for download on November 18 from Sony’s support site.

Reminder: Sony’s A7S is Incredible in Low Light

July 4, 2015 By Eric Reagan

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsywiyX1iKE&w=700&showinfo=0&rel=0]

We’ve seen many examples of the Sony A7S and just how good it is in low light. Well, here’s another that proves it is the low light king for affordable full frame cameras.

In this short preview video, Tony Northrup walks us through the high ISO settings of the Sony A7S, Sony A7 II and Nikon D810. The Sony A7S’ reach up to ISO 409,600 puts it just head and shoulders above the low light capabilities of the Nikon D810 and the A7 II.

Sony A7S

Whether its the right overall camera for you, however, requires examining what you need out of the camera day to day. For low light shooting though, the Sony A7S remains in a league of its own.
