I spend 3 hours looking for the perfect setting couldn't understand any thing.
you set me up in only 20 minutes thank you so much
Ayyy! Someone just sent me this. Just wanna say thanks for the shout out 🙌🏻 preciate you bro!
I think this is probably the best A7 III setup vid I've watched. Extremely clear and well explained. Thanks for this.
Eric Esser thank you so much Eric! Enjoy the camera I’m loving it . . . Over my riii 😅😭
NOTE: Instead of going to DIAL 1&2 to set up the settings, Go to the M dial and then follow all the set up video settings. After you set the 24fps settings for the M dial Go to tab 1 page 3/14 and down to Memory now select M1 which will assign to Dial 1. Then adjust the settings for 120fps on the M dial and go back the menu, tab 1 page 3/14 and go to memory and select M2, apologie for the confusion. Also to unlock your Movie dial to put it in full manual make sure your dial is on the movie mode, go into the menu tab 2 page 1/9 and for Exposure mode select Manual Exposure!
What do you mean? Could you explain
Jim Penn hey Jim I apologize for the confusion but you are correct you set your settings on the M dial, then when you save them you select which memory dial you’d like to be set up for. Unfortunately the only way to revert the settings back on manual is to manually adjust them again. I know it’s annoying but once you do this you’ll never have to do it again unless you decide you want to change your dials in the future!
Jim Penn Sony systems I love them but they can be a pain 😭🤦🏻♂️ Once again sorry for the confusion!
I’m so confused
I'm Jason Anthony when you say m mode, so you mean manual mode or movie mode?
Hi Jason, thank you for a great video tutorial. This video was published last year, is there anything in your tutorial that needs updating since then? Are you still using the same settings ? Cheers
Just traded my Canon collection for the A7iii and I am about to dive in to this. This was really helpful I will be watching your other A7iii content based on these shooting settings. Thanks for the helpful vid.
Adventure One same here!
dude this was so clear except for the manual dial part but read your note and helped 100%
Dude you didn’t even have 1000 subs when you did this video. Congrats on the progress. 🙏🏽
Hey Jason, very nice job explaining what your doing to an old guy who started shooting video on a 3 tube RCA-TK76 with a SONY 3/4 inch UMATIC recorder. You are straight forward and down to business with your approach. I'm looking foward to working with your settings. Many thanks and I look forward to more of your videos!
Awesome video! Thanks for the good tutorial :) Keep up the good work!
Benett Gräzer Benett I really appreciate the kind words! I be dropping content consistently every week!
Thank you, Jason! I just got my A7 III. I can now start shooting broll :)
Hell yes bro get it!!!!
This is awesome! I just got my Sony a7iii and I wasn’t sure where to begin with
Keren Vargas ive had my Sony a7iii for 6 months and still don’t know where to begin 🤦🏽♂️
James Prime just gotta keep playing around w it!
Keren Vargas I made the switch from canon and it’s been pretty tricky learning everything! Great camera tho!
Awesome tutorial man. Someone send this to me. This makes me switch to Sony fam. 😊😊🙌🙌
Your tutorials are on point brotha! Thank you for all the advice! looking forward to collaborate with you!
thank you for supporting Aaron!
Thanks for the tips man !!! These worked perfectly for my A7iii
thank you Chris!
When I get to setting shutter speed it wont let me. It seems like its on auto shutter speed. The numbers move automatically from 1/20 to 1/50 when I move the camera. How do I change this to manual? Thanks for your help! Great video!
Excellent tutorial Jason! Very helpful 🙌🏻
thank you so much!
Excellent breakdown, thanks
Great Video and thanks for the tips !!
The Picture profile does not change internally mate. Your memory will just apply the PP 10 but will not change the internal stuff. Basically, you have to make 2 near identical PPs with one having the change in detail to 0 and then memory the second one for the slow-mo 120 FPS setting. I could be wrong but that's whats happening on my cams. A7R3/2 6500 etc. Forgot to say great video and really useful.
Andrew Moore you know what you’re totally right bro and I was shown this by 2 other Sony youtubers a little while back about the sharpening. I apologize man! I know a lot about these cameras using them for 3 years but still learning these menus 100% 😭
No probs and same here hence I was watching your video. I forgot to say great video by the way and keep them coming as you get the info across really well.
Andrew Moore really appreciate it bro, you’re the man! If you’re ever in California let’s kick it🙏🏻
Ha ha would love that but I'm in England and its pissing it down.... :-)
So how to achieve the customized PP10 settings in Memory modes 1 and 2 as suggested in this video?
Nice set up. Just a question, why I can’t change my aperture and shutter speed manually? Sorry I’m a new Sony user.
loved a7iii
Super helpful video! Thank you for this!
Hi. How to set in mode 1 exposure mode Manual?
Thanks!
Nice vid! but one note from me: When you start to make a presset dont go on dial to 1 and 2 and go to film strip instead... if you check icon on left upper corner when you saving profile you will se manual but its better to have here manual with film strip for some better performance :)
Hey Jason great video my man all really useful features. Im shooting on a gimba,l would you recommend to turn ibis on or off when using it.
at 6:00 you jumped from menu to back of camera. What's going on here? Did you switch to manual settings?
Yes i tried it on the #1 mode dial and not on manual dial first it put a P where the M should be lol. But i get it now do it all in manual mode then save to one of the slots.
Hey Jay, I've been using the settings From this video for the last 3 years and the results have been amazing. I've updated my camera from the A7III to th A7IV and I wanted to know would you recommend using these same settings? If not, any tips?
I'm going to make an updated video for the new gen sonys! I say yes as far as majority of them. Since this I've just switched my picture profiles to Slog3 as it is better now than ever with S-Gamut.3!
When people say they turn off sharpening does that mean put it at -7 or just at 0 I can’t seem to find a clear answer
Is this picture profile setting good for no color grading? If not what’s a good picture profile setting for no color grading in your opinion?
While setting up, my camera is in “P” setting, how do I change it to manual???
lol same here
How do you fix this having same problem
@@WhatUp5 SAME HERE
Has anyone figured this out because I’m having the same issue! Can’t change it to M mode, it’s stuck on P.
MENU 2(purple) 1st page exposition mode ^^
Hey Jason! I did all the settings you said to do but when I put it on 1&2 it only takes pictures and won’t work for video/: any help
yeah, same issue
@@Minoritynomad same here, greyed out PP10 and AF Track sensor. greyed out HELP!
Hi Jason. Can I check with you for the exposure you just kept it to +0 at all times? I like your color grading. It gave a bit of vintage/ faded lut. May I know the lut used? Awesome video btw!
Hmm how do I change from Program (P) mode to M. The option for it "Exposure Mode" is greyed out when I put the dial on 1 or 2 Memory...
I am having the same issue. Did you work out how to fix it?
Very informative Jason!
Really appreciate it brother!
Thank you for the setting bro.
This is a great instructional video, even for a complete newbie like me. But here’s my problem: when filming outside in bright or even moderate sunlight, my image is washed out and too bright. What setting should I adjust to compensate for high/low light situations?
Marc Gonsalves you need a variable ND filter to cut the light bro no settings will help that
Jason Anthony thank you bro I am going to order one now.
Marc Gonsalves I’m actually dropping a video today on which one I use and test footage! Make sure to check it out bro!
I'm Jason Anthony cool, I’ll be watching for that.
Help! I got lost after setting the grid line to rule of 3drs grid where he went after that?
Sorry I am new at this and I am learning I am overwhelmed 😞
Do you think I can make high quality videos from my a7iii using Luma fusion
Do you keep switching between 4k/24 and 1080/120 to get the "slow motion" shots?
First of, thank you very Jason for this tutorial! I just wanna clear something up here. When you say set it on manual, did you mean "M" or "the video logo" on top mode dial? I think if you adjust all your settings while on "M" and save it in the memory, it will save them, but it won't be for video since "M" mode is for manual photo shooting. I think you have to adjust everything while you're on "the video logo" mode. Lol, i hope I didn't get anyone confuse.
Rico Reyes to set up the the dials you want to be in the M dial brother 🙏🏻
Ok, will try it. Thank you very much Jason.
Ertan Kanbur appreciate the help bro, when I initially recorded the video I had had everything set already and I messed up by advising people to go to the number dials instead of manual 😅
Hey Jason, super helpful vid. Just setting up my A73. With assigning the custom buttons I noticed you did that in the photo custom button menu and not the movie custom menu. Are your custom buttons assigned the same whether you are shooting video or stills? When in shooting in top Dial 1 or 2 are the custom buttons always what has been set in the photo custom button menu? In other words does the movie custom button assign menu only take effect when in movie mode on the top dial? Do you even use that movie mode, is it useful?
Great video thanks
Hi I own the a7r3 with a 24mm 1.4 lens.. @ 6:36 I noticed yours is set to -0.7 when you set it to f4.0 but when I set up mine with an f4.0 it changes to -0.2 is that because we have different lenses ? Also mine looks much darker after the settings for dial 1
Awesome video, but how come when I have all the same setting step by step. The slo mo memory recall 2 doesn’t record slo mo. It’s normal time. Only S&Q is slo mo, at least in camera. I thought it was slo mo in camera like my a6300 did.
Auto Focus Continues not working when I do your set up, only works when I do it in movie mode. But when in Movie mode can't access JPEG AND THE XFINE on the menu. Any Help??
It 100% works bro, are you recording footage trying it or are you just putting on AFC and without filming pointing it at objects? If you're not recording the camera won't focus.
FUEGO! Thanks for the tips bro
thank you brother
thank you jason
Hey man! Love the vids--appreciate the help. New to Sony here. Have the a7riii. I'm stepping through your "setup for #1" and all was good until I get to changing the shutter for 24p 120 and noticed:
1. The display looks like its set up as a 'still camera'...with number of pics, 3:2 @42mp, etc...your demo has it looking like the video mode I'm used to-- 2. All the settings seem to be automatic, vs manual, as the shutter shifts depending on the light. I feel like I'm in the wrong mode. Thoughts? Thanks dude!
Craig Ciali hey bro my bad this video is hella old and there’s an update pinned. So before setting the dials you have to go onto the video dial then into the video menu. Tab 2 the first option that says exposure mode change that to M it most likely is in P. Once you do that jump onto the M dial and follow the video. This should get everything straightened up and have it all see correctly from there moving forward. Apologize for the confusion. If you need help message me on Instagram and I can walk you through it! @im_jasonanthony
@@ImJasonAnthony ohh, man. thx you. that's some jedi shizz....cool bro. i nvr rtfm...so much appreciate the assist!
@@ImJasonAnthony Craig don't feel bad I also fell in the same hole. I was driving myself bonkers trying to figure out why I could not change settings. Thnx
Good stuff! Keep it coming.
Thank you brother! Can't stop won't stop!
Jason, fantastic video! Thanks so much. I have two questions. I am a photographer just moving to video so my thought was to shoot video in raw. I understand if you do that you lose the clear image zoom but how does shooting in jpeg affect your ability to "fix" or grade the video later. And, another totally newbie question, if you need to change the exposure settings you set up for both 4K and HD because the light is too low or too bright, what do you change first? ISO, f/stop or SS? Thanks so much for the help!!
Pam Korman Thank you so much Pam. Now Raw and JPEG are formats for photos only. Sony cameras have picture profiles for video which are similar to the raw or jpeg format for photos. The only reason why we’re putting jpeg on is so the camera allows us to use the clear image zoom feature. For some reason it does not let us use it when raw is selected. Now if you’re looking for a picture profile you can add color, luts, and cinematic styling I suggest cine4 or slog2. Those would be in the picture profile setting. I have a video on how to expose and grade slog2 footage. To brighten up an image via video you never want to touch shutter. There’s a rule known as the 180* rule for shutter speed on video. Whatever fps you’re shooting your shutter should be double that amount for proper “Hollywood” or cinematic motion blur or else footage will not look natural to the eye. If you’re shooting 24fps your shutter should stay at 1/50. 120fps shutter at 1/250. To brighten up I will think about what fps I’m at first if I’m shooting slowmotion at 120fps but I don’t need slow motion I’ll go to 24fps which will allow me to properly have a slower shutter. If I need to be at the higher fps, I’ll always adjust my fstop first then iso. Hope this helped!
Jason, thanks so much for walking me through all of that. Your explanations of both the raw/jpeg and 180 rule were super helpful. I am off to watch your slog2 video. I have been leaning towards the Cine4 PP because it is easier to expose for and I shoot outside a lot but I am curious to hear what you have to say about slog2. Thank you again for all the help. I truly appreciate it.
Pam Korman Cine4 is great and rather flat and grading can definitely be easy. I love slog2 lately just because I can get awesome exposure of shadows and highlights. I did a whole project on cine4 and noticed that some of my highlights would clip earlier than shooting slog2. Cine4 to me is a bit too contrasty on the shadows and I’m sure it can be adjusted in camera I just haven’t really had the time to sit down and play with it as much. I think once you understand how to over expose slog2 and grade it you’ll enjoy it a ton! Play with both and go with whichever one you enjoy using!
I followed the instructions you have and I have my iso at 200 but no matter where I am it’s so dark?
Hi Jason, awesome video, I followed all of your settings and it works out fine! However I have one question about the 120p slomo dial (2). When I shoot inside at 1/250 (with F3.5, lowest with the kit lens) things get pretty dark. How do I intercept this? Just by cranking up the ISO or is there a better way to do it? Thanks in advance, great channel btw :))
Hey brother so when I go to a shoot and I realize the lighting is too low, if I do not have more lighting on me whether I didn't bring mine or it's somewhere not pratical the only things I could suggest are A) change your FPS. It sucks but sometimes you have to go from 120fps to 60fps or even slower B) save for a lens with a faster fstop like an f1.8-f2-8 C) bump up your ISO however this will introduce noise in your film so be aware. I try to avoid raising my ISO higher than the picture profiles native ISO, it's usually a last resort.
Thanks for the quick answer man, this really helps me out. I am planning to get the 85mm f1.8 which might make things easier. Thanks again!
Hi Jason. I followed the settings 4k24fps on the exact same gear. Put it on a tripod. But when I sit in front of the camera, talk and move my hands about, it has this slight motion blur. Is it I’m moving too fast or I have something set wrong 😅 any idea how I can get the smooth 24p?
Back with another question after setting up my 1 and 2 buttons. I love how fast and easy this makes it to switch between filming at 24fps and 120 fps. The issue I am having is that when on either 1 or 2, I can't seem to get my shutter button to work as the record button. The shutter button works as the record button when I am in movie mode but not once I turn the dial to 1 or 2. Is that something I just missed in the setup? Thanks!
I use the canon 5d mark 4. But really shooting more video latly, should i rent the sony ?
very nice video man!!! I just have one question I hope you can help me out I love taking pictures and video but I don't know what camera to get the a7riii or the a7iii, if money is no problem what would you recommend
Cavjoxx bro this is a huge debate. From a professional photographer and cinematographer I would tell you if money isn’t an issue but the a7iii and put the rest of the money towards a ziess or gmaster lens. I wish I could do it over and buy 2 a7iii’s instead of having one of each. My go to is the a7iii I’ve made prints as big as 16x20 and the resolution for 24mpeg is outstanding. The better iso performance and focus points makes it a no brainer bro.
Bro 1 quick question please help. How to put a video on standby while recording on a7riii ?
Hey I just wanted to point out that using super 35 only makes the 4K sharper on the A7RIII…the A7III downsamples it’s full frame footage from 6k already so there is no need to shoot in super 35 just to get clearer 4K
Appreciate the info, the point of using the super35 is for more reach on a lens you're limited to!
Hey how u doing just wondering what program you use for editing video final cut pro x? Or Wich one?
Quick question. When shooting video after you have all your settings dialed in, do you just use the exposure compensation dial to adjust for your exposure?
I don't to be honest. I'm always using a variable ND filter this way I can shoot wide open so if I do need to adjust exposure the first thing I'm doing is letting more light in through the filter dial. If I then need more light I'll adjust the ISO being that the performance is so amazing on these cameras! Hope this helped Chad
Thanks bruh
haha ayyyy
Do you know how can I set the aperture and the shutter speed in the dial 2? It appears the P so doesn’t let me change it
massive help man! Thank you :D
Hey bro. Why the color settings you have?
R +3
C -4
Etc. does that help with skin tones? Or what’s your experience with that
Cole DeRuse awesome question bro! Although the Sony a7iii/riii color science is significantly better from the previous modes. These color tweaks I’ve noticed have helped in posted when grading! You don’t have to adjust them to this but give it a try and see how you like it
okay dope. yeah i've seen a bunch of people do that several different ways so I'm always curious as to why that is lol. Thanks for the quick response bro!
Hey Jason, I realized you haven't posted in about a year so I'm not sure if you are active on here or not but I'd love to know just a couple things if you have a moment. I'm a real estate photographer and have recently gone independent - praise the camera gods. My question is, since your last PP/HLG3 video, are your general camera settings in this video still the same (PP aside)? I pretty much converted your settings over but with HLG3 and personal tweaks aside. Lastly, I've seen some videos out there saying 60 FPS is enough to do "slo-mo" and speed ramping, but I haven't had enough time to test this; do you still feel 120 fps @240 is necessary? The reason I ask is in a low light situation, it seems you may be able to get that shutter speed lowered to 120, while still maintaining some professional-looking slow-mo @ 60 fps. Cheers!!
EDIT: I realize this is half the data rate @50m as opposed to the 100m you get with 120fps. With that said, it's probably not even worth it. One thing I will note is it is wonderful using HLG3 so far, as I can bump the ISO over 1k etc. without tons of noise dropping in like with SLOG. Have you found an ISO limit with HLG3 that you refuse to go past?
you're right bro, never hit the ISO. :)
Great video brother. Does the Metabones 5th Gen allow full electronic communication to Canon Lenses? What about Sigma and Tamron lenses made for Canon ? Thanks man.
the metabones 5th gen works great on both the 7iii and riii. there can be a little hunting at times from my experience using it but its the best so far when it comes to adaptors.
I'm Jason Anthony ok thanks a lot bro. So it’s fine w Sigma and Tamron lenses also ?
Great cid! very useful setup! Can You tell me what name is song in intro? :)
At 6:55 on my camera it has shoot mode P. Why is this?
do you have an update for your slog and cine4 settings? or is it the same?
Subbed off this video. ✊🏽📷
my Sony a73 seems to only default to 800 ISO...How do I manually put it at 200?
Jeff Long it might be because of the picture profile that you have it set on
Hey I set it up the way you did for the second dial but it’s not shooting in slo mo, also the screen is really dark?
The screen is dark because you need more light coming into the lens and you have to manually slow down footage in post when shooting 120fps on the sony's. Check out my video on S&Q mode if you're looking for in body slow motion!
Let me make sure - Dial 1 is for shooting normal video and Dial 2 is for smooth slow mo?
Yessir! You are correct!
What can you say about the tracking in continuous autofocus? I heard more than someone saying that it often loses the focus on the subject and when the subject turns backwards it goes almost always out of track, focusing on the background; is it true?
Using the a7riii since its release, I've yet to experience this problem. 90% of the time I'm using continuous autofocus and I love it. I've heard some people having issues but to be honest, using the a7iii the past 2 weeks non stop for clients promotional videos I've had ZERO issues bro.
I'm Jason Anthony thank you
No problem bro, thank you for stopping by!
Can custom keys be also saved to dial 1 or 2?
thank you
Hey man. I’m looking to shoot a dark, short film to submit to festivals. Some videos say you get best quality with RAW. In the cinematic mode, it only lists JPEG and it’s grayed out. You also mentioned to use JPEG for filming. Any thoughts?
Sony's don't shoot raw video, most cameras don't unless they're cinema cameras. Slog2 or cine4 picture profiles would be the best bet.
Thank you very much! What do you prefer? the film will be a noire style with a lot of low light. Is one better than the other for that?
@@Frankdkay Cine4 is great in low light
great video
My max jpeg image size with these settings is only 8.7M does anyone know why or how to fix this?
Can these settings work good for doing broll for instagram? I guess my question is Would the quality of using 4K 30fp be affected when shared to Instagram?
Check out my instagram export settings video and my videos on IG! I have really good settings that will help fight the compression on IG
Ok will do thanks 👌🏻
Hey,
what about the custom white balance in this 1 and 2 modes? not working right?
What do you mean Lukas?
Hey! i love this vid but im having problems, i'm using the sony a7riii but my custom dial number one has all the settings correct which is for slow mo, but when i click record, it doesn't do slow mo. HELP! i'm clueless.
Hey Steve unlike Canon, Sony will not record Slow motion in body. It records in slow motion but you have to in post change the frame rate of the footage from 120 and modify it to fit your 24fps or 30 fps sequence. I can do my best in the next 2 days to make a quick tutorial on how to do it in premiere. If you use the S&Q setting on your dial it will do slow motion in body however the quality is not as sharp as you would get doing it post editing because the megabits per second aren't as high. If it sounds like I'm speaking a different language don't worry. What program do you plan to edit video in so I can do my best to make a quick tutorial to help you out and get buttery smooth slowmo?
I plan on using premiere! That would be amazing if you could do something like that. That's weird though, i did not know that.
I just got a Sony a73 and I used your video to set up my video settings. I really appreciate it. I took it out today to do some test footage and everything was really over exposed. I am new to video and was just curious do I need to use ND filters to bring my exposure down Because I am trying to keep my frame rate at a certain level like you suggested…
Hey brother I'm glad I could help out! Yes a good variable ND filter will allow you to shoot wide open at say f1.8 or any real fstop and help cut light to have proper motion blur by using the proper shutter speed to framrates known as the 180* rule.
I'm Jason Anthony solid. Thanks man. Sounds like that’s the next thing I’m buying. Have a good week!
Missouri Fishing its a must have bro! You’re going to crush it, you too 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Hey Jason, I see that you're using Cody Blue's Cine4 profile for the A7iii. Do you also use his Cine4 LUTS in post, by any chance?
Lvl9chao I have his luts and have used a few. His luts I feel like are meant for green earthy settings like where he’s based out of in Tahoe. being a lot of my shooting is cityscape, beach and desert even after tweaking I’m not the biggest fan of the look. I do love Kyler Holland’s free presets and his free transition packs are awesome as well. Kylers teal and orange Lut #3 and #5 I use a lot as a base and tweak to my liking. I used both his luts in my Secret Cave broll on the abandoned train and inside the cave! I’ll be dropping my own free lut pack in the next couple weeks!
Thanks for the info, this helps! I'll check out the LUTs you mentioned. I'll be on the look out for your LUT as well.
@I'm Jason Anthony pls pls pls pls let us know when u drop those free lut packs :) :) :) :) , i set my cine 4 exactly like cody blue , but i dont get the looks he shows on his videos... , pls

Hey brother are you using a picture profile like Cine? Usually the base ISO for the cine profiles is 200. To darken the image I suggest a variable ND filter to cut the light, that's the best option. You can also adjust your Fstop but if you want shoot outside during the day an ND filter is suggested to cut light and stay at the proper shutter speed!
@@ImJasonAnthony thanks for the fast reply I don't know why I did not think of ND filters lol.. I am from the drone world and we do ND filters all the time...

When I try and change the audio rec level, I get a message "Operation not available in Shoot Mode:Manual Exposure" - please help, I need good audio to go with this amazing video I'm getting!
Michael I got you covered, I don't know why sony does this but to adjust the audio levels turn your Dial onto movie mode. Then go into your menu Tab 2 on the top and go to page 2/9 go down to Audio Rec Level and adjust it to whatever you want the level to be. Now when you go to Dial 1 or 2 they will be set to the audio level you adjusted on the movie dial. I don't know why sony did this bc its a pain in the ass but thats how you do it brother! Enjoy the camera!
You have saved me mate! Really appreciate it, and the quality of your vids is outstanding. I've subbed and have been watching them all. Thanks for the quick reply
Hmm, just tried this on a few different audio levels and it works on "movie mode" dial, but doesnt keep the same value when I change to Dial 1 or Dial 2.
I think what I might need to do go to the "Movie Mode" dial, set the "Video exposure mode" to manual, then apply all the settings you provide in your video above, and then save that to Mode 1 for 4k, then change that for 1080p for mode 2.
Michael Hanrahan yeah I always make sure to take movie mode out of its stock settings and set it to manual. As a 3rd dial I’ll use that one for my 60fps settings in cause 120fps with the proper shutter speed of 1/250th is too dark in some situations.
Thanks Jason. FYI - I just repeated your video above, but I first set it to Movie mode and copied that setting to Mode 1. Then I applied the picture profile and 4k etc. It has worked perfectly, and now I can adjust audio levels while keeping the mode still set to manual.
If you guys have any questions let me know!
Just wondering if you could help me out... I followed all settings but for some reason my lens won’t auto focus unless I actually press the (AF-On) button. When I’m in the default movie mode it works perfectly without me doing anything, but for some reason when I’m in the other modes it doesn’t even attempt to focus. If you have any ideas I would appreciate it.
Hey bro sorry for the delay, mine does this too but once I hit record she focuses properly. When I hit record I'll even hit the focus button and shell snap into focus and from there on out it stays auto focusing. Have you tried that out yet?
You don't need to take out raw to get clear image zoom and to set the responsive AF for photo, not for video. Video setting is on different page.
kc chen hey bro that’s news to me, clear image zoom doesn’t work for either my riii or 7iii in raw only jpeg. Every setup video I’ve seen shows it that way also. As far as responsive AF goes, Jason Vong & Henbu also show this as well in their setup guides.
Nice clips man! Really like your videos, because I do same kind of stuff! ⚡️⚡️
Appreciate it brother! where are you based out of?
Jason, Have you ever experienced problems with the Sony A7III audio going out of sync when trying to line it up with other recorder audio. If I record a song with the A73 then then to sync the raw audio wave file in post after about 30-40 it goes out of sync. It's very easy to reproduce
I usually just use the clap or slate method and manually sync audio when using an on camera mic and a externail recorder like a Zoom. I know theres way in premiere and audition to sync multiple audio channels easily but I just do it manually brother.
Thanks for the advice. I just do it Manually now as well.
appreciate your comments bro! Have a good one!
Do you shoot your RAW photos in PP10 too?
patrondanny I don’t. Once I set all the settings I put them back to my photo settings no PP raw uncompressed etc.
