Via Alphauniverse:

Drew Geraci took the α7R III to New Zealand prior to its launch. In Zealandia, the filmmaker who created the famous opening sequence for House Of Cards shows what the camera can do in the hands of an artist.
For Geraci, high resolution, broad dynamic range and excellent low-light capability are essential for his timelapse work. The α7R III has all three and Geraci took advantage of that to make Zeelandia.

A7rIII shutter sound porn :)


We always have those shutter sounds videos. So let’s hear the a7rIII sound:

And Dpreview listed all you need to know about the new A7rIII. Here are some interesting info:

1) Sony promises a slight improvement in rolling shutter, but not to the level as the a9, so the a7R III didn’t earn the ‘Anti-distortion shutter’ designation.

2) All dials have been updated to provide more haptic feedback

3) Redesigned low vibration shutter mechanism, which allows 10 fps bursts without the risk of ‘shutter shock.’ 

4) Responding to user feedback, Sony has added the ability to enter the menus while the camera is writing to a memory card. 

5) This one is kind of huge: there are now separate function button configurations for stills vs. movie modes.

6) Pixel Shift Modus: There’s at least a 1 second delay between shots while the camera waits for the sensor to settle. This delay means that this feature will not work well with moving subjects.

“We’ve put them through the paces. Cold wind, sub-zero temperatures, sand, heat – and they performed beautifully,” says Burkard.
