Is the camera’s HDMI out clean for purposes of connecting it to the computer as a webcam using something like ELGATO Cam Link?

yep it can be used that way. I hook up my sony a6500 to do KZfaq livestreams

Jason, thank you SO MUCH for this in-depth tutorial. I just got my Sony A7 III and this is my first time to the Sony system. This video has helped me tremendously and it is really one of its kind on KZfaq right now. I hope Sony recognizes your effort and rewards you properly. Your videos on the Sony mirrorless system is some of the best on KZfaq. Keep it up!!! Thanks again!!!

I'm going to be getting the A7III very soon, and I watch this video almost twice a week in anticipation! I'm so excited for it, and your channel does nothing but make me even 10x more excited to use this beautiful camera.

@sharksfan2011 6 жыл бұрын

Thank you Jason for an excellent tutorial. I just received my A7iii yesterday afternoon and the batteries are all charged up this morning so I’m ready to rock n’ roll. I’ve watched this twice so far, and will now do an in depth “watch and stop” to get my settings done correctly. Really really really appreciate you taking the time to do this! You’re awesome!

@davebailey5678 2 жыл бұрын

Jason I have referred to your video at least 2 dozen times...funny if you don't use these cameras constantly (I'm just a hobbiest photographer) you forget..if you are starting from zero these cameras can be a challenge..You have done the best job of showing how work the memory or quick function keys. When I started I had missed the dial control features and the relationship to the function keys. You and Tony Northrup are my favourites for how to tutorials...thanks a lot and continued success....

Probably the longest video I watched on KZfaq but certainly the most informative. I did feel that you skipped a couple of bits there because you were exhausted but definitely deserve a shoutout. Well Done!

Thank you for creating an informative step-by-step video with commentary about the rationale behind particular setting choices for various situations. Without your tutorial I would have been very overwhelmed. Thank you for breaking this down for us novice filmmakers! While the tutorial may have been exhausting to complete, it has been extremely beneficial! Great job!
