got SONY A7S2 recently and I am going Penang for a shooting .. so decide have quick test on this new camera …

as usual below is standard setting, and Post Porcessing done on the picture

  1. MANUAL focus, same aperture,
  2. CANON using 2470 F2.8 II at ~55mm
  3. SONY using CZ 55mm F1.8
  4. MANUAL Mode ISO100,200,400,800,1600,3200,6400 (did through 51200 but think my accept level for both ~3200 so I just share up to 6400)
  5. Both Camera use standard ISO reduction
  6. tripod, timer for shooting
  7. AWB
  8. SONY Stabilizer mode OFF
  9. open both with CS6 (SONY use DNG Convertor convert the ARW to DNG and process same way as below)
  10. No Noise reduction at CS6
  11. Save as jpeg direct from ACR without any further processing
  12. to compare same size , resize all picture to 240 Pix per Inch and 4000 at long site

below are link for above setting and with vary ISO

5dm3 ISO100 | F16
5dsr ISO100 | F16

I pick few 100% and 200% on different location to compare the different between both picture

#1 200% crop on both pictures of ISO100 , the one with 5dsr still can see the monitor model but not the 5dm3

 

5dsr 200% crop
5dsr 200% crop

 

#2 180% crop on 5dsr on the RIGHT most RM10 ringgit note .. “BANK NEGARA” still able to be see but the 250% crop or even smaller crop cannot be see clearly with 5dm3 picture

5dsr 180% crop on right Orange note
5dsr 180% crop on right Orange note

Multiple Exposures from 5dm3 ….

am still trying … just before I forgot my 2nd test result ….

*** all pictures straight just basic raw –> jpeg  …

*** on 5dm3 multiple exposures   – 2

 

raw files …

 

shot 1

 

shot one with wide angle

 

shot 2

shot one with tele angle

 

and result .. think I make some mistake or I can correct it with photoshop .. but again .. just a simple test 😀 .. so have fun and wide angle with big “egg yolk”

result

5dm3 HDR & Multiple Exposures ….

something you would say important but useless depend …. but it is always good to have rather than not an option for us ….

another 5dm3 add on features .. that I really happy with is HDR and Multiple Exposure …

by pressing the button in red.. we can choose Multiple Exp or HDR

 

while we want Multilple Exposure …. choose Icon Center… 2 Raw files will be shoot(depend # of shots configure) and one will be process

 

(meter the foreground and sky)

and default the result … (non Edit)

 

and HDR … there are few option .. and the Natural option is quite Natural look …

3 RAW/JPEG will be capture (and we can choose to save all images or only the HDR images which only in JPEG)

 

then .. the auto.default HDR output .. no PP

 

 

so .. how do you feel the output ? I would say .. it is good to have this features .. even may not useful every shooting but definate useful for some cases ….
