Rumors! Rumors! Rumors!
Rumors seem to be flying around everywhere from Canon
to Sony and we have you covered. The question is, are we finally gonna get
that all elusive Sony a7s III that's been teased for the past several years?
Well I have the a7s II right over here and this nice shiny stand is ready for the new a7s III
The Internet is up in arms over who said what and we're enjoying every minute of it.
8k video, crazy high ISO, maybe even a super 61 megapixel mode for stills.
That would be something really epic.
Now the official announcement most likely will be made during the NAB Show in April.
and I'll share what I'm hearing. But before I get into it, remember come visit us here
at the Digital Goja showroom in Miami. And, don't forget, we publish new

For now, these are just rumors I'm finding on some of my favorite blogs
and photo community posts such as SonyAlpharumors.com
and canonrumors.com
This information has not been officially announced by Sony.
The a7 s3 name is also not official and there have been rumors
on the name possibly being the a7 s4 to try to keep it consistent with some of
the other cameras in the lineup like the a7 r4.
Alright so first let's talk about the imaging sensor,
now the rumors that we're seeing is that it's gonna be a
15.36MP full-frame sensor. It's going to be developed by Sony.
Now the question is whether or not it's going to be the
stacked image sensor with integral memory or is it going to be a backside
illuminated sensor with the Quad Bayer Design.
Now more information is pointing to the Quad Bayer Design.
Now we could see with this new sensor that we're
actually going to get about 4.8k over sampled footage that will look very
close to 6k footage.
Now there's other information leading us to believe that
Sony may introduce a 36MP sensor into this a7 s3
that would give you the ability to shoot 8k footage.
Will It make it in there? I don't know.
But now with the recent 8k rumors about the upcoming Canon R5
Don't you feel like there's gonna be a cine war? Now when you think of mirrorless
cameras Sony has been leading the mirrorless camera game but Canon their
new r5 all those rumors and their financial report they want to make sure
that they are number one. So Sony, you better get on your A game and if they're
right about this Canon r5 you have a lot to prove. So, let's see what you got Sony
on this a7 s3.
So if you're interested in the latest rumors for the Canon cameras
make sure to check out our latest video.
All right, on to some other specifications that we could possibly see on the sony a7 s3.
Now we know the cameras going to be able to record 4k,
but the frame rates are really up in the air right now.
Will it do 4K 60fps? Will it do 4K 120fps? Well there's a very good
possibility it does 4k 60fps with the full width of the sensor and possibly a
slight crop to do 4k 120fps. You'll also be able to record 4k 60fps with HDR.
That's what a lot of rumours are pointing at. Back in 2018, Sony was developing a pro
codec that's gonna replace the X AVC with h.265 X EVC.
Will they be using this in the new a7 s3? Again, we don't know, but it would be great to see something like
this which would be capable of recording 4k 12 bit internally and 1080 Full HD
video up to 240 frames per second at 10 bit.
Now Sony recently announced this FX 9 full frame Cinema Camera.
Now this is a beast of a camera. You're looking at
something that could output 16-bit 4k and 2k up to 120 frames per second.
Now could some of this technology trickle down to the a7 s3 like there 19
megapixels sensor? It's a possibility, as I mentioned, you know, the rumors are
pointing more towards a 15MP sensor. They really like to see similar
features that we see on the FX 9 put into this new a7 s3.
One thing that we need to see are two memory cards dual, memory cards.
Everybody is gonna be up in arms if we put one memory card on this camera Sony.
Will it be dual CF Express cards? Well if they manage to make the camera a bit bigger,
it looks like they're gonna do a little bit of a cooling system with this camera,
so the camera is probably to be a bit beefier than the a7 r4 and of course the a7 s2.
Now talking about the ISO range, we're looking at something from ISO 50 to a
128000, expandable to six million.
Well probably not six million, but some ridiculous number. I know this camera a 7s a7s2
were both killers in the high ISO range, so, I can't assume anything less.
Another thing that I'm really excited for our third-party lenses. Now we have Tamron
supposed to introduce 6 new FE mount lenses the 75-180 should be
officially announced within the next month or so with pricing and
availability, so we're looking forward to some great lenses available for the new
a7 s 3 or 4 as well as some of the other full-frame mirrorless cameras.
I don't know about you but it's exciting hearing all these rumors surrounding Sony and
Canons video capabilities. One will come out on top. Who do you think it will be?
Let me know in the comments section below and what would you would like to
see from the Sony a7 s3? And which camera you think will win between Sony and Canon.
