I just spent $3K on a camera and I liked it.<\/p>\n

Not really, but I was at least comforted by the fact that the price for a decent video camera started<\/em> at $3K just a few years ago.<\/p>\n

Today we have an abundance of impressive camera options to choose from, each of which bring unique features and functionality to the table that set them apart from the rest.<\/p>\n

For example, low-light performance is the Sony a7S II’s<\/strong> calling card.<\/p>\n

\"Sony<\/a><\/p>\n

Even Sony knows it, that’s where the camera gets its name– the “S” stands for “Sensitivity”<\/strong>. Low-light performance isn’t just one of the a7S II’s features, it’s the<\/em> feature.<\/p>\n

However, as nice as shooting in the dark sounds, a single feature does not automatically make it a solid camera for video production. Aside from shadow-busting sensitivity, does the a7S II have any other features that make it a good candidate for your video projects?<\/p>\n

Is Sony’s a7S II more than just a one-trick pony?<\/strong> Let’s take a look at the a7S II’s key video-centric features to find out.<\/p>\n

Low-Light Performance<\/h2>\n

The a7S II’s low-light performance is obviously the camera’s biggest selling point for many people, and it’s easy to imagine why. There’s no denying that having the freedom to increase the ISO to insane levels without destroying your image is mighty attractive.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the real surprise is that it’s not all just hype– the a7S II’s low-light performance truly is second to none.<\/p>\n
