I thought they added a switchable global shutter mode, no? Maybe i'm getting it confused with another model. Probably!
I'm only now looking into DSLR's for a low-light option. Funnily enough, the ones that stand out to me are the Samsung NX1 and the Fuji XT2. Samsung oddly has great motion cadence, but awful macro-blocking. Fuji, unsurprisingly, has beautiful colours. Unfortunately both are only 8 bit, which is kind of a deal-breaker for me.
As an aside, how rare and cool to get to geek out on Hacker News over this stuff!
- dharma1 9y agoSony A7r ii is the low light king, there is a new version due in the next couple of months. I am not going to be buying another camera with 8bit video, so will be holding out until there are more 10bit options out there. HEVC has a 10bit profile and it will be everywhere because of HDR TV's and phones, but might take a year or two to get popular in cameras.
- l33tbro 9y agoIt's amazing in low-light, but I find the colours are pretty washed out and the image can band pretty bad once you apply post processing to get it looking half decent. That's been my experience with it anyway. Didn't know they have a new model - great to hear.
