In movie shooting, it offers an ISO 200 - 102,400, with extension to 409,600. In stills it offers ISO 100 - 102,400, extendible to an ISO 50 - 409,600 range.Superb low light capabilitySony's new α7S model puts extraordinary sensitivity, low noise and spectacular 4K video quality into the hands of professional photographers and videographers. The new image sensor technology optimises the sensor’s dynamic range and gain depending on the environment. It broadens the range of tonal gradation in bright environments while minimising noise in dark environments to deliver extremely low-noise performance quality.12.2 MP 35mm full frame sensorThe α7s combines phenomenal sensitivity—ranging from ISO 50 to 409600 for still images and ISO 200 to 409600 for movies with supremely low noise, courtesy of Sony’s new 12.2-megapixel 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS image sensor and optimized high-speed BIONZ™ X image processing engine.
