Brilliant video. You are a gifted teacher and I must say, I learned a heck of a lot despite 40 years in photography. This camera is complex for us old geezers used to a Nikon F.

@gavin4321 3 ай бұрын

Absolute beginner here. Was so disappointed in my iPhone & its focus - or lack of it, after visiting Costa Rica, I thought I’d need a proper camera for our next holiday. After watching several different utube videos on the Sony A74, it left me more confused & stressed out than ever! Had I bitten off more than I could chew? Well, yes! … until I just came across this beaut of a tutorial! Michael, you’ve saved me weeks, probably months of cross referencing different clips from different utubers & head scratching! You explain everything so clearly & in a way I can understand. You take your time & don’t rush. This is amazing! I honestly can’t thank you enough for taking the time to show me how my new camera works. You’d make a great school teacher! 👏👏👏👏👏 👍

I watched your entire video and learned a lot of details I had not fully understood in the past - even with all my experience. Great job.

Thanks Michael for your video. This has been very helpful since I just received the Sony A7 IV this week. I have been a lifelong Nikon user (selling all my gear now). I was comfortable with the Nikon D500 & 200-500mm lens for wildlife. Great camera, but I wanted to do more with video and the D500 was not great for video (especially auto focus). The Sony A7 IV seems to be a perfect hybrid. This is certainly going to be a transition, but very impressed thus far. I purchased a kit lens for now (28-60mm) along with the 200-600mm lens. Again, thanks for your time and effort in making this video. Great job.

@@michaelandrew5209 Thanks for asking. I am obviously becoming more and more familar with the Sony now. Awesome pictures along with the fast autofocus is just incredible. And my next challenge is video. I have not spent much time in that arena yet. I would love to have had this camera/lens setup when I was shooting at dance recitals from the balcony of my daughters years ago. I was reading somewhere that lens filters may distort photos with some Sony lens. Not sure if true or not. Do you shoot with or without filters? Thanks again Michael

Hello. Just bought A7IV with a 2470gm2... but also you videos (those 4 parts). I'm checking them... one doubt is what burst speed is optimal so that autofocus can manage fast moving objects. I notice that in HI+ Camera struggles to autofocus correctly. Seems to be focus issue and not blur. Seems that the shit is taken a little after focus is set
