Super helpful, there was a lot of settings that I didn’t know was there.

Just got my a7cr and this was such a huge help to mapping everything out in just the right way! Thanks so much for going through the best settings! Huge MVP

Hey Dylan, I love the colors you are getting in these videos! Can you say a bit about your color grading workflow? Is this all done in Resolve? Would be great if you could make a video about this.

Hey that’s some really great info into your settings Dylan and some good little explanations too thanks. Your settings sound much more friendly than a lot of others. I use an A7C btw. I liked the info about shooting log and exposure.

An addendum. Your memory card will dictate which formats you can record in. 60 at intra as well as at least some of the S&Q modes will ask for v90 or even a well rated CF Express card. Also, Phantom Gang. Great luts for most matters.

A comment about overheating, I had it really bad on my A7Cii, so much so that I returned it for the A7CR, which some legend on Reddit mentioned it was way better with this issue. Ever since, I've recorded almost hundreds of hours of 4k 60fps footage (I also had a 13 hour long session once) and have not had a single issue with overheating, haven't even seen the temperature icon yet.

@rasyadhiarrachman5209 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the guide. I have a7cii, moving from the canon ecosystem.. I would like to see your video workflow if you're gonna make a video like that.

@DylanBlackburn 4 ай бұрын

Maybe one day! At the moment I don’t have interest in making videos about making videos and just want to focus on photography. A lot of the ways I do things on the video side are not “by the book” and don’t want to have elitists tell me I’m doing something “wrong”. Actually the more I type this comment... the more I kinda do want to make a video about my video workflow haha

@rasyadhiarrachman5209 4 ай бұрын

Yea, it's okay. I have been using this camera for a while. I still haven't gotten into making videos yet. At least one simple video on reels is what I aim for. I dont know how to use the log feature and i am learning how to use davinci 🤣

I might be mistaken, but I don't think that active steady shot works when crop-mode is enabled. Also, I'd like to hear your opinion on the A7CR video quality. Since it's got the high mp sensor, all video is pixel binned. I found the video very soft (personally too soft for my taste). I use Phantom luts too!

@DylanBlackburn 4 ай бұрын

Honestly I don’t find it to be a problem at all. People are way too nitpicky. I use a mist filter for all of my filming because I dislike how sharp the FX3 is. But at the same time I feel like anyone who buys the A7CR for shooting video should have just bought an A7CII

@stkuj 4 ай бұрын

@@DylanBlackburn maybe so, but the option to use a mist or not would be my preference…

Great tips! Can the A7Cii shoot 4k at 30fps? Seems 24 or 60 only?

@DylanBlackburn 4 ай бұрын

You should be able to shoot 30 FPS. I don’t have an A7CII but every Sony camera can record in 30 FPS

@jerryatp 4 ай бұрын

@@DylanBlackburnjust figured out it can only shoot 30fps in H264 but not at H265. But 60fps is available in both H264 and H265.. which is a bit strange.

When you’re shooting stills do you keep it on M dial or can save your still settings to a custom number dial too
