Hi Res Photos, Low Light Performance, Superb 4K Video


The Sony a7R Mark II is a full frame mirrorless camera that shoots 42 MP stills, 4K video, and has low light capability that is second only to the best low light camera ever, the Sony A7S. Can the newSony a7R II perform on all fronts as promised? Read on to see photos and 4K video from this revolutionary camera.

Check out the full review here.

This video was shot in Lembeh, Indonesia by Jim Decker using the new Sony 90mm macro lens.
 
One key advantage, not mentioned: it is possible to fit Nikonos lenses if using the Nauticam housing. Sad to hear the battery life issue, it would be nice if it served a full day of diving with 4k (~1 hour footage +20-30 stills using strobes). If possible I keep my camera in the housing in a water bucket or under a wet towel the whole day and replace the battery only in the evening.
