This is the first leaked image of the new Sony A7sIII I got from J. (Thanks!). You can clearly see the red recording button, the LCD screen is fully articulating. Otherwise it’s pretty much close to the Sony A7rIV body.
Rumored Sony A7sIII specs:
- New 12MP sensor with fast readout and S-Cinetone colorscience
- records FHD 240fps, 4k120fps 10bit 4:2:2 and 4K120fps raw over HDMI
- ONLY Up to 4k60 will be 10bit 4:2:2 internal.
- Downsampled 1080p from 4K, making this the best 1080p hybrid ever made! No line skipping or pixel binning.
