Hi like many i feel your video for first timers joining Sony more than ever - i wanted to thank you like many but dont you feel its time to correct the error people are mentioning in the comments months now? You talk nearly 2 minutes about the 10fps which CAN be done un uncompressed RAW.
Keep uploading !
Just ordered my first Sony (a7iii) after 23 years with Canon gear (which I'm in the process of selling). This video was extremely helpful and I very much appreciate you putting it together! THANK YOU!
This video is extremely helpful. His PDF settings guide is awesome as well - Far better than the Sony Manual!
1) 1:11 - Electronic Front Curtain Shutter (Pros & Cons)
2) 7:51 - Silent Shooting
3) 10:23 - Eye AutoFocus
4) 13:28 - Compressed vs Uncompressed Raw
5) 16:26 - Live View Display Settings Effects
Really appreciate that Gage!!!
I've been shooting the A7III for a year and still learned a lot from this video. Thanks for takin the time!
Tons of useful info squeezed in here without it getting too wordy, nicely done. Thanks for covering the live view settings effect on/off. One of my concerns about switching was knowing what it would be like shooting flash with the evf. Cheers Dan
this is exactly what i'm looking for, word for word! great explanation. thank you so much!
Thanks for explaining the pros and cons pf e-shutter curtain. I turned it off after a video I saw of the Fro but I wasn’t taking into account the cons you explain here and the cons outweight the pros in my case
Great setup review man!!! The last tip helped me so much! I just got my camera, and the Live View on / off feature saved me a lot of trouble on my next photoshoot in studio!
I like how simple and clear you explain things... I always like to watch your videos because they are really informative...
Means a lot Carlos!
Thanks Dan! I'm buying mine and it was really helpful specially because this will be my first mirrorless :)
Man, thank you for bringing these issues up!
Very helpful, one of the best for A7iii info session! Thank you!
So glad it helped!!!
Thank you so much for clearing up the bit rate issue with continuous shooting. I had conflicting info about whether it was true or not.
just got the sony a7iii and i am on the journey of learning, thanks for the tips to start
I have an A73 and I appreciate when someone takes the time to put up a video. I have many videos up myself but this could have been half the time without losing any content. I couldn't finish it.
OH, thank you for the front curtain shutter explanation! Finally, I got it...
I just bought the A7r iii - so slightly different at times - but I watched this anyway.... it REALLY helped me! - Thanks so much. Despite watching hours of other tutorials and other channels with in depth stuff, you managed to hit on a whole bunch of new things I simply didn't know! Thanks again.
So awesome!!! Glad it was able to help
Good job. These key points are really helpful.
Man, I’ve been doing loads of research on this camera and your videos have helped me so much. You’re so well-composed and your talking points always flow very well, very easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful. Enjoy your camera!
This was so helpful! Thanks Dan!
Good information Dan. A lot of the info you went over, I had no idea how it worked.
Thank you so much. I am new to mirrorless. Turning the live view effect on and off was very helpful!
I see you putting those Crane 2 tripod feet to use! :P
Hahaha, yep! Good eye
I just got my a73 and I noticed it shakes inside when I turn it on AND when I turn a knob it sometimes does it. I am new to camera's and was wondering if you know why when I record everything looks great until I put the file in my computer and then it is all jittery! Im at 24fps and my shutter at 1/50, so im guessing that part is correct so should I be having that crazy stuttering of the video ?
I also need a very deep tutorial of how to set my camera for film production, would you know of anyone online that can walk me through in depth...I have to shoot a short film in 2 weeks and I need to have my setting for day and night, and 4k and 1080p
I can perhaps answer the first part. The shake inside may be the image stabilizer waking up.
Great video! Thank you for sharing so much info. I cant wait to get mine and set these settings according to this info and my needs.
Hi Dan, you do not need to have your af area set to wide for eye-af to capture anywhere on the frame where focus points are. it will search for it no matter what focus area you are in, so to all that want to use different focus areas but want to use eye af as well
do not worry.
Actually, it could matter but in a positive way, well if you know it. If you have multiple faces on the frame and you put the flexible spot on one specific face, the eye AF will track an eye from that face. Once locked, you can recompose and move the camera and the AF it will not consider the flexible spot position until you restart tracking.
Incredibly helpful, thank you so much. Been struggling with banding for months and finally found this vid
Thank you so much this was supper helpful
This is by far the most helpful video I’ve seen on this camera. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
So stinking helpful! I have had mine one day and I am completely overwhelmed but this really helps with some stuff. Thank you!
Awesome!!! So glad it helped
Did you ever do the full menu settings video?
great video bruv! thanks a lot
Super helpful! First mirrorless camera, and it's been a trickier transition than I expected it would be. This clears up so much! Thank you!!
Awesome!!! So glad it helped a bit. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions Sharon
Great review bro. Keep it up 🤘🏿
Thanks Dan. Great info.
Nice work man! Super engaging and helpful info. Did not feel like 20 minutes
Really appreciate the feedback Shaun!!!
I shoot mainly in silent mode and came across the flickering issue under led lighting. However, in non silent mode you have anti flickering mode. When turned on even with e-front curtain the banding is gone. I tested this, so you dont need to turn it off. However in silent mode when your turn shutter speed around 1/125 or lower you don’t really get banding anymore.
Great info, thank you !
This was a very informative video. I just bought the Sony atr iii. It should arrive tomorrow Tuesday. I will probably need one on that or gain a lot from this one if/when the options are the same.
You explained the complicated thing in a way very easy to understand. Thanks! Great work!
Awesome!!! Thanks, so glad it helped
Great tips. Thanks
great review!!!
Thanx for such a good work!
Do you have your sony a7iii WiFi normally catching with the phone? I have a very weak signal, I tried different smartphones.
Cheers for these mate ! Pretty useful tips :)
You are among the best reviewers, ever! I noticed banding in your video early on, around 40 seconds plus or minus? The video clip showing the camera (product shot) on a white background. I had this camera on preorder, but the banding question (my biggest concern is stills) made me hesitate and wait until I learn more about the camera. Your review helps me understand the issue a bit more. One reviewer suggested regular old incandescent bulbs introduced it, but otherwise it seems to be an issue with LED. I’ve noticed banding at high iso and low light will all my cameras, including Nikon with my Hue bulbs - so maybe it’s not unique to Sony at all? Thank you for your awesome review.
Great video, as always. Chears from Croatia
Thanks Dan!
Wow Dan, i have an A9 for a while now but did learn a lot from this video! Am now in doubt between the A7 iii and A7r iii for my second camera. What would you do? Buy the a7 and 24-105 or go for A7r?
Thanks for the effort.
fantastic video
Well explained, thanks
Finally I get it. Very clear. New subscriber here! Thanks for crunching lots of great info in shortest possible time. Awesome.
Thanks Joe!
Thank you so much for this video
Thanks for the info!
Very helpful. Thanks.
Thank you!
Thank you Dan! I can't wait for mine to arrive sometime this month!
Awesome! Congrats on picking it up
Thank u so much. Helped me a lot!
great video!
Nice video dan :), waiting ardently for the setup video. Keep it up :)
Thanks Maroun!
EXCELLENT discussion. I've watched other videos that give the same general information though clearly lack the technical background for a full explanation. You, on ther other hand, have an excellent technical/mechanical understanding of cameras and are therefore able to eloquently and very effectively convey all the necessary information! Thank you.
Thank you. Subbed because of this informative video.
Appreciate that Anthony!!! Awesome to have you as a sub!
Good Job, Dan. Straight to your points without ego-tripping side tracks. Don't have this camera (yet), but your info seems very relevant. Thanks.
Thanks!
Awesome.. i was getting trouble finding this menu item in the maze
Good sir! Thank you!
Fantastic: you know this guy is the real deal because he blows thru highly technical explanations with no script
Very useful. Thanks
Thanks man!
From a Pro's perspective your last point on flash was the most important topic, good to see someone address this.
Great info to know. Sony should be paying you. Thanks for the video.
haha, glad to help. Would be awesome to get paid for these :)
Thank you,
Great Video Dan , Thank you so much for the info .
and can u suggest me how to balance ( Calibrate ) both view finder nd monitor color temp . Have anyone faced the Color issues ?
Killer man. I'm in the trap of watching videos on all kinds of gear I "need" when i don't even fully know I gear I got. Thanks for helping me learn the a7iii better
Awesome!!! So glad this helped
Thank you
Very important info.
What Camera/Lens was this video shot with? Great vid Thanks
Thanks! Canon 5D4 and Tamron 24-70 F2.8
CJKnowsTECH love your vids!! CJ
Thank you so much!
you always do a great job,excellent photographty knowledge.
Thank you so much!!!
Great video thanks
useful! thanks!
Great video Dan. How is video AF with MC-11 adapted lenses? I have not seen a video about that yet. It could be a good one. Thanks
One of the very best videos I have seen on the Sony Mirrorless cameras! I just subscribed! Do You by chance have any videos on the Sony A7R2? I own one of those and just feel that I'm not getting the full use of the cameras features. But again excellent video!
Thank you so much!!! The only video I have on the RII is the review unfortunately
Thank you very much
so for the eye autoAF hold it down at the same time you take the picture? Sorry i upgraded from the a5100 to the A7III so learning a lot and your videos are easy to follow. Thanks! im looing at your other videos and if you got any on picture profile or on a video tutorial please send it my way!
Thanks!👏👏👏
Great video, does anyone know if the compressed raw will drop to 12 bit in bracketing continuous mode as well, or is it just during regular continuous?
Hey bro, can you please try the Panasonic G9 😎thanks
Thanks for useful video! Would have been nice to see photos for comparison, for example I did not really get this thing about silent shooting and e-Front Curtain on/off...
Great vid
Hi Dan. I just got my A7iii with 24-105 and I'm trying to find my way around coming from Nikon. Your video and detailed explanation really helped me find some key settings that I immediately applied. Just subscribed and will continue watch more of your videos.
That's awesome!!! Appreciate the sub Antonio
Keep Being Our Hero brother ! God Bless You
Means so much!
Very useful video, thanks!! I would add a note on the uncompressed and compressed RAW options regarding the speed at which your computer runs when handling them. ThePhotonauts makes this point, and compressed files demand more resources to edit, and I found them a touch clunky in comparision.
So you prefer uncompressed? i just bought mine so i'm a little confused....
Sync speed?
Does the e front curtain shut affect the sync speed when using regular studio lights? Using my new Sony A7riii in the studio yesterday with my Profoto D1 lights and air remote, I couldn't get it to sync at 250/1. I had to settle for 200/1 but it has left a grey shadow on one side, so I'm guessing that 160/1 would have been the desired setting for a perfect exposure. But that it too slow and not 250/1. Do you have any idea as to what is going on? When I say regular lights, I mean not HSS. Thanks.
I m just onto photography..should i buy this or save some bucks & buy the a7??
Wonderful video! Love the way you explain things! New Subbie! greetings from Germany!
Thanks Daniel!!! Thanks for the sub
Getting banding from the electronic first curtain seems very rare - my guess is only with very bright flickery LED lights with very specific shutter speeds. I've never seen in shooting A7 cameras for 5 years now. Good information about the lossy 12 bit raw when in compressed and continuous shooting (not continuous AF). I wasn't aware of that and I agree that it would be nice to have a setting to prevent the auto-switch to 12 bit raw. I wonder if it does this when bracketing at well since it is similar to continuous?
Your explanations are GREAT...However, I find it more helpful to summarize the "when you should use/not use front curtain shut" then why. (I have shortish attention span)
I own a Canon 70D, not a Sony, but this vid was so informative and clear I just had to subscribe. Thank you.
Hahaha, Awesome! Thank you so much!!!
Are there any pros to turning off silent shooting but keeping on the front curtain shutter, or is it the same as keeping both of them on?
Really good video man 🙏
Thanks Alain!
Electronic first curtain shutter can also cause bad bokeh for big aperture combined with fast shutter speed (1/1000 or faster)
Are you available for Pirates in Penzance next summer in Cornwall England
Nice video, nice explanation! Could you please talk about DRO?
It's basically like having the camera automatically apply a slight edit to the image to increase dynamic range by boosting the shadows and contrast. Think of it like a preset. If on auto, the camera will determine when to apply this preset to the jpeg image.
