We have finalized the analysis on the Sony a7s and the Panasonic FZ1000.  We have placed the Sony in 4th place and the Pana in 5th place in our HSC Camera Guide.  Even though the a7s is only 720p it has less aliasing than the FZ1000 at 120fps and the resolution seems very close. The Sony full frame also has noise characteristics that are much better than the 1″ sensor on the FZ1000.
