If there's any doubt about the 12mp sensor in the a7S III ...
Tony doesn't know that 60 fps video is also for slow motion.

A more usage oriented comparison with someone with a bit of knowledge in the field, with a test in hot and humid weather:

For the video noobs out there, I will point it out again: Normal video frame rates are 24(25) (more filmic) or 30 FPS. 60 FPS like in these 4K60 overheating tests are used for slowmotion, if that adds to the mood of a scene (obviously without recorded sound). It will give about 2.5x slow motion in movies. 120 FPS like in 4K120 gives about 5x slowmotion in movies, used when for instance dramatic fire or particle movements are captured. 30 minutes of 4K60 would make for a feature film length slow motion clip.
That should place these 4K60 comparisons in perspective.
All the talk about 4K60 and "shooting weddings" is just nonsensical, really.

Quite the surprise considering comments on the internet everywhere.
Kind regards, Wim
It's really fun reading through those comments.
Two weeks ago: 8K video, awesome video specs, game-changer, Canon kills the other video-centric cameras.
One week ago: Ok, it can overheat at times. No big deal.
Today: "I'm shooting stills anyway"
LOL ... ;-)

Tomorrow: overheated before the couple said "I do"
The day after: A7SIII arrives!

Because weddings get shot in slomo. Or extended video rigs with HDMI external recorders and monitors.
how to review a camera now : put it at its highest video resolution with highest fps and wait till overheats....
