Sony A7s 2499$ USD, insane low light examples

Oh, so now that I finally buy a Canon HF-G30, I need to get a Sony instead?

The Canon HF-G30 is great and you save 1000$. If you are using the Canon HF-G30 for blogs or podcasting reasons, it is more than enough.

I shoot with a Sony RX10 and it is a great camera for low light plus the constant 2.8 is a plus.

I been debating upgrading but am not sure if the cost will be worth it once I sell my current RX10

I recently bought a Canon C100 for the same reason. While the ISO can go to 80,000 ISO I doubt I would ever go that high. Half of the events that I cover, light is an issue.

I'm not using it for anything yet. I can't figure out the best format for shooting and the way to seamlessly edit the MTP files, or whatever they are. I'm an audio guy.

MTP files? I thought it recorded AVCHD or .MP4 files. In Adobe CC you can drag and drop virtually any video and format and it will play it.

Well, I'm a photo guy so I'm most certainly behind the knowledge curve when it comes to video cameras. After watching this clip I remain satisfied with my old 2008 Sony A900. Not even a built-in flash, simply an old-school full-frame mirror flipping camera. Before that it was a rangefinder camera from Germany so yes, I'm old.
