Note: The following comparisons were are shot at the same exposures, and similar focal lengths. The A7S and A7R sample images were all captured as Extra Fine JPGs in the sRGB colorspace, and pulled directly from camera; they were captured on the same night. All three cameras were set to Auto White Balance. We apologize for the slight change in camera angle between samples. Tech Specs: ISO 1600, 1.6 sec, at f/5.6.
