Review Of The Sony A7S III: THE MOVIE!

My full, in-depth review based upon almost two months of using the camera is finally here! This is, of course, a review of the videos features, not the stills features. I wanted to have this review live on the day the camera was announced but with the two videos I had to make for Sony and Atomos for that same time, there just wasn't enough time. My long-form review videos like this normally take between 3-5 weeks to cut. There was a HUGE amount to edit for this that was shot over many weeks, way more than the Sony FX9 review. Somehow, I edited this in 10 days...10 very long days of ridiculously long hours and little sleep.

The chapters are listed below for reference, but I really recommend watching it from start to finish as the whole things have a strong narrative flow to it. :)

Hopefully, you will find it worth the effort! It's informative, fun, silly, educational, has loads of cameos and features BTS from both of the launch day films.

A review can only be a true review if you are unbiased and not being paid by the manufacturer. Whilst I was paid by Sony to make those films, that was all, not my opinion on the camera. This IS a review. My ethics are clearly stated at the beginning of the video.
