Does it support powering the camera on/off using the remote?
I accidentally turned them off and this doesn't turn them back on
thanks, what a straight forward easy to inderstand video. I can now use recall 2 which is set up for portraits and simply switch between animal and human eye detection - brilliant!!
Have you ever encountered these settings reverting by themselves. I set them up like shown, RAW to both cards, I rotate between M, S, A modes and when i change to them, they seem to forget what they were set to. Ive the latest firmware, Ive tried all of my cards too
Thank you for the video!
Can you record different video file types simultaneously? If you have a fast card on slot 1 and shot 10bit there and 8bit on slot 2 on a slower card for example
Lifesaver! I've lost too many shots w the wrong settings. Thank you!
Sony remote is rubbish - doesn't work at all (not pairing). Pure waste of money :(
Amazing video! Hmm I wonder what I am doing wrong. I got the Sony a7c ii (basically the Sony a7iv but compact) and the 200-600, and I can spam take photos at 1/2000 in good lighting conditions with birds at the same distance as your kites, and pretty much all of them come out soft. Especially if the birds are flying against the backdrop of a blue/white sky. I don't know at this point whether this "softness" is actually softness or just exposure insufficience because of the bright sky backdrop. You mentioned you set the tracking sensitivty to high, shouldn't it be low? or are we talking about two different things. I have set mine to 1 out of 5 because that says "Locked On" which I assume dmeans it wont so quickly change focus to branches and other stuff that may come in the frame
THANK YOU!!!
Hello , Between a Sony 200 - 600 mm lens And a Sony 100-400 F 4.5 - 5.6 with a multiplier of 1.4 to use on a Sony A7 IV which of the two solutions is better for sports photos at night with very good lighting?
Great video...but...Its the Sony 200-600/5.6-6.3 for me...Bit of a price price difference and I already have the Sony fe 70-200/4..(both used with A7C bodies)..Cheers
Plus and minus and the big button in the center worked for me
Perfect. this is exactly what I wanted!
Thanks 👍👌
Thank you! I've just bought this for my A7RIIIa. Would like to confirm that it works wth my camera. But also, thank you for your very succinct guide!
What if you want to photograph a dog’s face next to a human’s face?
Thank you 🙏🏾
Thanks Tim, I had this set up a while ago, but after a recent service it had reset to factory settings. I could not for the life of me work out how to set back to dual card set up. Thank you now it's sorted and I'm subscribed.
TIm I have a a7iv wich ds card you recommend for 4k videos?
Thank you ❤
Will it overheat the camera quicker if i record film and save to two cards at the same time?
nice! great vid. straight to the point.
what lock on number 1-5?
I sold my 100-400gm and bought my 70-200mm 2.8 mkii with a teleconverter because of this video. Thanks
are you happy with is so far?
I bet you love the internal zooming, too. I hate lenses that grow as you zoom. Why? Why? They have the tech to make internal zooming lenses, not these ever-extending monster lenses. I have the 200-600mm zoom by Sony. It has internal zooming and it is a dream to use.
Nearly 3min to format an sd. 🤦🏽♀️
You must be an Apple person.
Thank you
Thanks for this one. Good video.
picking up my a7iii after putting it down for years, thank you brother bless you and your family
Thanks again Tim!
Thank you
Very informative! Thank you.
Thanks!!!
I have the a7111 and 200_600 and I can't get the green dot tracking to work can you help?
Thank you for a very helpful video. The Sony menu system is truly a labyrinth.
great video ! Is it possible to do the time lapse editing / stitching together using free sony apps on your mobile ???
Thanks for the quick and easy way. Question on a problem My Sony A7iv camera. it keeps on freezing and the focus is off. I have to shut it off and restart it and it goes back to normal operation ( sometimes i have to shut it of twice) At this time after 11/2 years, Precision has stated that the replaced the Mecha device and the problem still exists. any thoughts on this problem?
Кто выиграл?
what this shows is that they are both very similar. I think i would rather 70-200 + Teleconverter as I have more versatile combo
Thanks Tim, switching to back focus!
It took me 20 minutes on google & all that came up was A7 iii, 2 seconds on UA-cam & this video came up straight away. Thanks for making this video. Exactly what I was looking for.
Is there much image quality loss with the 200-600 + 1.4 TC?
Thank you - A very simple and organised guide
thank you so much for your good explanation. this was very helpful!
i didn't know the AF difference between the A9 and the other was so different
Does it focus stacking on Sony a7iii?
Hi tim, Do you know how to rapair to conect to another camera?
I am a new member of Alpha Shooters and am still getting to know the A7R5, which I purchased to take advantage of its advanced auto focus specifically for wildlife and birds in flight. Coming from a Leica SL2, I generally prefer "back button only" focus in almost all circumstances, though with the SL2 you can can program "back button focus only" differently for each profile, including even my "manual focus" profile (i.e., even in manual focus you can set the camera to enable back button focus - very convenient). Can you do this with the A7R5? I have set up three profiles/modes on the Mode Wheel: (1) Birds in Flight (AF/C) @ 1/2500, etc.; (2) Stationary Birds (AF/C @ 1/500, etc.); and (3) General Shooting (AF/C @ 1/200, etc.). I have also programmed two of the back buttons to recall (1) and (2), and the way Sony cameras work I have to keep the button pressed at all times to, for example, shoot in (1) BIF if I start in another mode. That means I don't have a finger free to use back buttin only focus while toggling to BIF. So, I want to set up Modes 1 and 2 with standard shutter autofocus, and then I would like to use back button only focus in (3) General and Manual. Thus, when I toggle to (1) BIF, for example, from Manual I would have shutter actuated focus as long as I hold the button down. Is that possible with the A7R5? Or, as I fear, is it that once you have engaged back button only focus, that applies in all modes (Sony's version of Leica profiles)?
So if I'm using the CHS-II card in the slot one, to gain any benefit, I can't use and Simult or Sort option on the camera? because that will drag me down to CHS-I speed? Then the best way to use CHS-II card for this camera is to just shooting RAW with single CHS-II card?
Si helpful Thank you - wasted a couple of hours trying to pair it, your instructions are brilliant why can't say it takes 7 seconds to pair pressing 2 buttons!???
