"The Grand Tour" using Sony A7-series Cameras?

[JonathanStewart]

Watching the Morocco episode of The Grand Tour and it looks like they've got Sony A7-series cameras pasted to the windows of their cars, and judging by the rolling shutter, the footage is consistent with that observation. 

Anybody else notice this?

screengrab looks more like a Lumix G85 ?

 

Edit:

On a 2nd look more like a Lumix GH4?

Except for the word "LUMIX" on the front of the camera, it does kinda look like an a7 I guess.

 

I actually always pause Top Gear (and anything else I watch) to see if I can identify the camera, too.

 

In the recent Grand Tour episode where they make their cars out of bricks, bones and mud, I'm 90% sure there's a Canon DSLR set up in James's car and in some other spots. But since Grand Tour is supposed to be 4K, it'd have to be a 1DC, since they shot those scenes a while ago. It looks smaller than that, so they might give a pass to crash cams on the 4K requirement.

They are using three Panasonic GH4s per presenter car. http://www.definitionmagazine.com/journal/2017/1/4/enter-the-grand-tour

I guess you COULD spell the 4 letter SONY using a bunch of extra letters but it would be silly to. (Even all fuzzified out I can clearly make out that that 'Sony' is way too long proportion wise for the brand as it pertains to the A7 line.)
