    I watched another dudes video on how to set it up he disregarded the fact that there's noobs that are trying to learn all the functions of the camera. I applaud you for not ignoring that fact.

    Your videos complement the Sony Help Guide perfectly! Like many others, you may understand the fundamentals but you have to know how to navigate through the menu's and settings of the a7III. This is why many people give up on their higher end cameras. Your videos helped me get up to speed so I can now take some decent photos rather than leaving the camera in Auto or Program Mode. Keep it up and thank you!

    Just bought the A7s111 and after watching Sony's brand new tutorial streaming master class which was absolutely horrible I found your video on the a7 111 to get started on this beast, you are amazing, the video is articulate, easy to follow and xlint visuals of camera, Sony needs to hire you they are completely clueless . a pro camera that is designed to Hollywood specs should have the same level of education on the camera. You saved the day, I will watch more of your videos!

      I really appreciate your kind words and I'm glad the video helped you out!! I also have several on the A7RIV which should help you out. Obviously the menu system on the A7SII is very different though.. Many more How-To VideosHere: ruclips.net/p/PLFE32AB0363640EDF

    Thank You! All my life I've been a point and shoot camera user, I recently moved to where I have many opportunities for taking lasting landscape and wildlife photos. When I made the decision to buy my Sony A7S iii I knew I would be facing a steep learning curve. The past couple of days I found your help manuals, today I found this helpful video, then when you pointed out your help manuals I realized they are made by you! The manuals are excellent but this video will get me going so I can refer more to the manuals. It seems there are many similarities between the cameras.

    A lot to learn for understanding a entirely new Menu system.
    You have to somehow "make the decision" and go through the financial pain going from Canon to Sony, but they are definitely leading the industry in technology.

    thank you for a very clear and informative video - I have just moved to Sony A73 from Panasonic G9 and this really helps me insert myself into the rather complex world of Sony menus and ergonomics. On many other sites the reviewers just get a bit too excited and wrapped up in the Sony universe and assume all listeners know the basic stuff. Much appreciated - now I can take some pictures and wont delete them by accident!
