WOW WOW WOW!! The most amazing Master Class in advanced focus technique!! Thank you for the HOLD FOCUS TIP my friend!!!
(Had to disengage the video record function from my shutter button but WOW SO HANDY)
Hi Jac, I have Sony FX30, and I'm using AF, with Focus Mode - Continuous auto focus and AF transition speed and AF subj. shift sensitivity at 4, some how when I take moving shot, like move the camera in a diameter angle, most of the objects are a bit out of focus or a bit blurry or lack of clarity. I use aperture at 7 or 8, and wide angle, there is no person involved, but when I upload the video to computer, my eyes feel a bit unease, because Im not able to see many things properly or read properly, because it is either a bit blurry or not able to read it, and if car pass by, then it will not be clearly visible. Do you know if I need to make any further adjustment. Im using shutter speed double the size of frames per second, that is for 30 - 60 as shutter speed. please help
Bravo on this video. I’ve been looking for this answer for a few years now. Now I can actually start utilizing my camera.
The best video I have seen explaining AF for video on newer Sony cameras! This should be linked in the official camera manuals 😀
You are most kind! Thanks for your encouraging words!
couldnt have said it better! It's just spot on!
Wow Jacques this was probably the most informative video I've watched all year! Such great practical advice that I will surely be using in the field! Loving all the content. Keep inspiring us 💪😎
Aaaaah thanks Naeem, that really warms my heart! So grateful for your support, have an awesome holiday and happy shooting!
@@jacques_crafford مرحبا من افضل على اخر في تصوير الفيديو فيديو Sony a7iv & Sony a7siii
Thank you. This has been so far the best class to learn the autofocus feature in my Sony camera. God bless
Absolutely stunning short video, perfectly explained almost every basic things, with short and direct vide samples! :) I actually setting my new Sony FX30, and this is by far one of the best video for Sony AS i find:) without unnecessary sentences, off topics, etc. :) Great, thanks:)
Thanks for this! Definitely needed this for solo work
One of the best AF tuts around! Helped me get up to speed with my new A7IV's AF setting really quickly! Thank you!!
So glad to hear that, thanks Arif hope you enjoy the new cam :)
One of the most detailed yet simplest videos, THANK YOU!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching! 🔥
Thank you so much for making this video, Jacques! We just picked up the a7iv and are making the transition from shooting with our Samsung S21 Ultra. We didn't find the Sony documentation (what little there was...) very helpful, but this is AMAZING! 👏👏👏
Oh wow, that's a huge compliment! Thanks, so glad I could help :)
Hi Jaques,
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. A question about the hold focus feature: the seems SO useful, but I cannot figure out how to turn it on so that soft pressing my shutter during video mode activates the hold focus. How did you do this?? Thank you!!
Real top proffessional tips!
Thanx Jacques! This video is packed with great advise!
Yeeew thanks Riaan, so glad to hear that! Shot for the feedback!
I really wish there was an option for Face Only AF, not just Face Priority. I really like when the focus holds when the subject leaves the frame. Great video btw!
I wonder what the best workaround for this would be. I have a button that switches from AF to MF, so perhaps that can be used as they are leaving and then turned back on when they re-enter? Perhaps we just max out the settings of subject tracking as well? Dunno.
Useful tips!
So amped to see this level of content coming out of South Africa ! You just keep nailing the most important topics for us. Thanks china !
Ultimate Sony autofocus guide! Great! Thx
Yaaaaaay, thanks for your support!
Jissie Jacques, you're killing it! Love the videos!
Lekker dude, thanks Gordon much appreciated!
Jacques you are hands down my favorite creator on youtube. Your videos are so helpful!! Question - what is the best auto focus mode to use for multiple people in one shot? Just looking to keep everybody in focus and not one specific person with Eye AF. How should I go about this?
Dude! This is one of the best vids I've seen on shooting video with Sony. Damn, I totally get it now, I was muddling through the settings not knowing how to get what i wanted. Thank you!
Yo Rick! Thanks man I'm so happy to hear that! Only a pleasure and thanks for supporting my channel!

So glad to hear that! You're welcome brother!
Such a good video! A question, with a side by side interview, what is the relationship between focal length, aperture, and AF modes on the FX/3 FX/30? To keep both faces in focus? Thank you!

Thanks Nooralam! You're welcome!
This is an incredibly valuable video. I just ordered an A7IV, and discovered your channel looking for information on best practices and settings for the camera to have a starting point. This will be my first time using a Sony, so a lot to learn and was so excited to find your channel! Already subscribed and look forward to seeing more content like this as I continue to going through your previous videos.
Thanks Michael, so grateful for feedback like this! I think you're gonna love that camera! Hope you enjoy the videos to come :)
Great video! Thanks for sharing this. Would like to know which handle are you using?
Thanks!
Thank you! This is great!
I am glad to hear that, thank you!😄
I was wondering what handle you were using that extends over the screen to easily allow you to tap focus areas is - around timestamp 2:44 for the left hand? Thank you so much for this video - can't wait to try out these new settings with my FX3. Although I wasn't able to setup the lens hold button on my sigma to set focus while in manual mode. The Set focus would just toggle between AF/MF even though I had it wasn't set to toggle them.
Brilliant. Thank you for this - very helpful to understand all the current Sony focus modes.
I'm SO glad to hear that! Thanks for the feedback Morgan :)
Great video ❤
Thank you so much! 🔥
Great Video. You just helped me up my Focusing skills.
That's fantastic news! 🔥🔥
Useful information
So happy to hear! 🔥
Hello Jacques! Nice video, thank you very much. Do you know if there's any option in video mode that allows you to lock the continuous focus on a subject without using the touch screen? Like the Lock-On option on photography. Thank yooou

Very helpful. I didn't know my camera could do that. I would love a video explaining SonyA7S3 filming features and the different effects of the variety of record settings and associated setting. How to receive the best results for slow motion.

Many thanks brother. Love from India.
Thank you so much! 🔥
nice work dude, and incredible work!
Thanks Jon, grateful for this feedback!
Very very helpful informative video Jacques. Does touch subject continuous autofocus works while working with external on camera monitor with touch screen? so instead of using camera small screen I would touch subject on external monitor to focus and so? I believe Sony doesn't allow both its screen and external monitor to work simultaneously so I wonder how to take full advantage of Sony autofocus system while working external on camera monitor? Thanks heaps Jacques, get to learn a lot on your channel.
So good!!
Thanks bro, cant wait to go on a mission with you!
the best video ty a lot!
Thanks Carlos, so glad you found it helpful!
Thank you 🙌🏻
You're most welcome! Glad you enjoyed!
Wow thanks for the tips and I will definelty use autofocus on my A7IV more than I normally would.
You are most welcome! ☺️ Glad to hear it.
