Howdy folks, I'm Chance. I specialize in anything and everything related to Sony cameras, but also dabble in other stuff too (like phones/drones)! Here, you can find in-depth guides on both APS-C and full-frame along with plenty of reviews! Welcome to my little slice of the internet. :)
Hey thanks for the video. How do you control the camera settings without having to do it on the actual camera? Is there a remote app or something that can be used on the machine?
For some reason, when i hold the auto focus it give my image the blurry background but then slowly disappear do you know why. Im using the a7iii with a sigma 50mm lens
This camera is plastic. Magnesium alloy is for their more expensive models like A6500. Even the lens mount is half-plastic. The reason it can fall and live is because it weights nothing.
are they using the xt5 sensor they are selling to fuji, if that is true, then this specs might makes sense. and i hope they have even better dynamic range
Hello, have you tried the sigma 18-50 2.8 for the Canon R7? I currently use the Canon 17-55 2.8 with an adapter for the R7 and I don't know if the change is worth it, the weight is less but in terms of quality and performance? good video!
I haven't yet. However, I used to have the 17-55 when I shot with Canon many years ago and that thing is HUGE, especially with an adapter. As a big fan of compact kits, I'd say it's worth it to switch.
I bought my A6000 back in 2014 and every time i think about changng Isee sense and stick with the okd faithful. It does me fine for every day, street, and landscape. Ive jist bought a Sony 70-350 so i can shoot my husbands rugby team in action. I used to think I needed the latest gear but i really dont. Great video from you. Thanks from me in the UK.
Glad you liked it! Really the only reason I ever needed to upgrade from the a6000 was for video. The lack of mic jack and flippy screen was problematic.
I took me so long to discover the Rich Tone mono, yet when I did it quickly became the only one that I used, I have so many pictures taken with it and I like every one of them. Quite a bummer, I sold the camera. Are these Picture Effects present in all Sony cameras?
I have a good hint to you, lads. If you’re looking for a cheap Sony, like a6000, or even NEX series, just find yourself this kit lens. I used a6000 and this lens for a year, and I can say - because you are using only central part of light from the lens on cropped sensor - you got all the sharpness and contrast from the centre of it, without any distortion and blurriness from the corners. And you got yourself a rock solid, light and cheap lens for a crop! 🎉
Aperture Priority is good. I also use FV on my Canon M6 II. Manual was was I had to use to learn DSLR photography. I did learn one thing : once you know the rules, you can break them.
True! I also learned manual on a DSLR which, frankly is a little bit harder because you don't have an EVF. I couldn't use the LCD screen because my camera would die literally within 3 minutes lol.
Personally I use manual mode with auto ISO. Since my subject is more often than not my quick 3-year-old daughter, I like to have control of shutter speed + aperture.
The a7iii is awesome! I've had mine for almost two years. I don't have a ton of stuff covering the a7iii specifically yet, but here's what I got in case you want to do some learning: ru-vid.com/group/PLAEjiy3SLihfrXmpnpijisunsk85R7tdm&si=R1yK4f9h3U8ZvWc9
Apeture priority all the way. I usually do manual ISO though, but I have a slightly older DSLR (Nikon D3300 circa 2016). I'll have to see if i can find a setting for max ISO though, that would be amazing haha.
You've invested thousands of dollars in a professional camera, and you see it offers shutter priority, aperture priority, and manual settings. These features are included so that professional photographers can use them! Choose the setting that suits your situation best. If Ansel Adams were alive today, he would likely embrace modern technology to create stunning photos, without worrying about being judged for his choice of settings.
I'm with you! I use kit lenses on a variety of Sony, Canon and Nikon cameras, primarily in my small home studio, where they offer great range, and stopped down to f5.6 the image quality is more than acceptable.
