    Hi Jason, I just bought the exact same setup, I'm a fine artist, and I bought the Sony A7R 4 primarily to take photos of my paintings at hi res, so as to be able to offer prints. I can see going manual is the way( i've only used auto up till now). Ive also got a Zeiss 55mm 1.8 lens, as well as the Sony 24-105 F4. I'm using continuous lighting at 5500K, with two lights on either side at an angle of 45 degrees. I can dim the lights right down from 100% to 0%. I've been using the Zeiss on auto with the painting Im trying to capture at the moment measuring 750mm H x 1200mm W. I have the camera set at 1800mm from the painting where it fills the monitor screen, but its still not quite sharp at the outer extremities. After this demo I'm thinking of using the manual setting with a slow shutter speed (I've got the wired remote, and camera on a Benro 3-way geared head). Would I then have the f stop at 4-5.6, and the ISO at 100 to get the best image of the painting, in low continuous lighting? Thanks.... Im learning, but Iv'e found both you and Dan Fox have great tutorials.

    • @Jason_Hermann
      @Jason_Hermann  Год назад

      Hello there, I would try stoping down the lens to f/8 and moving back from the art piece a bit. Then zoom in on the art to eliminate any perspective distortion. f/8 should get you corner to corner sharpness if you are lined up perfect. I would also set the self timer on the camera and allow the shutter to be whatever it needs to be @ ISO 100

    Amazing explanation. Thank you for taking the time to do it. I found your video because I was gathering information about the A7RIV evaluating a possible purchase but I see in the description that you use A7C which I didn't have considered... Could you tell me why you choose that body? I was undecided between the A7RIII and IV, but will be good to have some insight for another option. Thanks!

    • @Jason_Hermann
      @Jason_Hermann  Год назад +1

      I also have the A7IV now which is my go to camera...The A7C I am using only for my studio camera these days... The A7C is a very small camera body so not the best ergonomics and the electronic viewfinder is low quality, only on e memory card slot as well, and cheaper! The A7R series cameras have a super high resolution sensor, where the A7C has a 24MP sensor... Also the camera body on the A7R series is larger and more robust with lots of buttons everywhere... I would highly recommend checking out the A74 and here is the perfect video for you: ruclips.net/video/M7OIRjcePZE/видео.html

There is one thing I hope you could give me more tips about Sony A7R4 Iso Auto Min ss setting up. I am lost here, it can set 1/125'' or 4s or even 15 to 30ss. In my situation of shooting day-to-night timelapse, what speed should I set?
    Many thanks.

      No, but you do need to be in mechanical shutter mode, so no silent shooting if that is enabled. I would check and make sure you are on single shot mode meaning one photo at a time as apposed to rapid fire continuous shooting mode. Please let me know if either of those was these issue 👊

    Hi Jay awesome video thank you so much. I’m officially subscribed thanks for your knowledge. Quick question, I mainly shoot a video during a sunny day or sometimes cloudy but mainly during the day, what priority setting do you recommend? Should I be in manual mode or a particular priority? I am mainly doing a Aviation video and my focus is the plane as it approaches for landing or takes off. I do not care to have anything else and focus. Any advice on the best mode, aperture, FPS, ISO settings, shutter speed? I am currently shooting at 24 FPS 1/50 shutter Manuel mode auto iso! Thanks for your help
