Figured you guys might want to see this. I filmed this a while ago and a lot of it was shot at 16,000 ISO. The only parts that I can remember for sure using 16,000 ISO is with the band playing and people sitting around watching the band, basically time 1 minute to 2 minutes were all 16,000 ISO shots using a Sigma 18-35 at F1.8.

Well it's bright..
But a lot of the highlights all look blown out.
Perhaps recording at a lower ISO and maybe using a little noise reduction in post might have saved all that clipped video and still given you a perfectly clean end result.
Like the music.
 
I don't know... I would have gone for almost more focus, so say at f5-f8 and brought down that ISO. At area :12 secs- :23 second mark. Yeah its definitely very shallow depth in most areas.
The A7sII is a monster in low light I'm sure it can pull the punches just fine yes? If these are your co-workers then they look like a good bunch. :)
heh, the awards are handed so fast.. no time to enjoy. Just grab and run eh? ehhehe!

good video, thanks for sharing.
 
It's a BAR...you should have been at least 1 stop lower than that exposure wise IMHO...you would have preserved highlights better.
