It seems confusing to me.
We have a small number of ( it must be said, very vocal and persistant ) members on DPR who are unhappy with the A99 video performance. Fair enough, I have no reason to doubt their position and taken at face value they do seem pretty unhappy.
And yet, I have seen A99 video that looks just fine to me.
And, it must be said, I have'nt seen any rival FF video ( Canon for example ) that really looks any different.
It may well be that there is something in the software that is making the A99 underperform for many people. But if you dig around there are plenty of people complaining that the Canon 5D3 is soft as well, so it is hard to make any sense of it.
The A99 is still very new. Hopefully a clearer picture can be extrapolated from when there is more evidence out there.
Right now we have the same small number of people complaining in the same circular way. We need a larger sample size IMO.
The sample videos speak for themselves comparing the a99 to other cameras. DPR's own videos they took speak volumes. If other cameras don't look any better then you really haven't done due diligence looking at other videos.
It's not just a few either - there are many truly objective people on here that have also commented about the video IQ of the a99 - in fact, I would submit there's just a few who refuse to admit it; not the other way around.
IQ shapness CAN BE a problem, on a LIMITED number of A99,i have nex-5n,7,A77 and the LE-A2 adapter and make some video testing on the sharpness newpaper' s letter and all these cameras give very very near the same results.........
I too had all those cameras (as well as the a57) plus the LA-EA1 and 2. Comparing the footage I took with the a99 was noticeably different from my testing. Have you personally tried the a99?
I have also the A99 , and try it vs the 7 and the Nex-5n but they have not the same lens....but for sharpness near 100% the same result on small newpaper character and calibration pattern.
