This was taken the day after I got my A7s. I wasn’t comfortable with the camera yet and had mistakenly had the camera set to auto ISO. This was shot at night lit with a single flash with a beauty dish on it. Because it was dark the ISO defaulted to 12800 which I noticed as we were drive home. I thought the shoot was ruined but with a bit of photoshopping and texture layers I got something I’m pretty happy with….even though its shot at 12800 ISO. Really liking this camera
(the model is in a bungee harness. Aircraft cable is running from the harness to the ceiling. these are photoshopped out)
