The innovative A7S camera is the world's first camera to utilise the entire width of a full-frame image sensor in 4K video acquisition. In video mode, the A7S can output 4K video at QFHD (3,840 x 2,160) to an optional external 4K compatible recorder, and can record full HD (1,920 x 1,080) at frame rates of 60p, 60i, 30p and 24p directly to a compatible memory card. The camera also has a Multi-terminal interface shoe that is compatible with Sony's XLR Adaptor Microphone Kits allowing the use of professional microphone systems.

The camera is also equipped with the same high-precision Fast Intelligent AF system as the A7R camera, with drastically improved low-light AF sensitivity that can go as low as -4EV. Directly compatible with the growing family of E-mount lenses, the A7S camera can also be used with A-mount and others lens systems with optional adapters.
