I rented an A7s last weekend and was blown away by the image quality, even in ISOS that I wouldn't even consider using. ISO 1600 on a portrait shot has just enough grain to it to almost appear filmic. I'm on my phone but I may post some crops when I have the chance. Very impressed with the A7 line of cameras.

Metabones Sony to EF, almost native use of your Canon glass.
Now for the meat, consider this a mini-review. This camera impressed the hell out of me. With the exception of ergonomics, i.e. the record button could be in a better location, this camera has everything that I could want. Min/Max ISO settings, check. Fast shutter speeds, check. Great color rendition, check. Low light sensitivity, check.
Now for pictures from the camera and some crops, obviously these are all A7S shots, and all are handheld and originally shot in Sony RAW.
First up is an early morning candid portrait of my son. To be honest, I got lucky on this one and everything came together.

Quick crop to demonstrate the noise. While this picture was processed in the Nik plugin (Color Efex Pro), no additional, non-camera, grain or noise was added.

Crop. Noise is more noticeable in this shot, however for such a high ISO (12800) image quality is still impressive and some minor NR could easily handle it.

To be honest, this camera was just plain fun to use, I was sad when I had to box it up and send it back.
