SONY A7RV: Settings to Adjust BEFORE You Start Shooting | DO THIS FIRST!

Sony a7rv: Settings to Adjust Before You Start Shooting | Do This First!

In today's video I go over a few settings you can adjust first on the Sony a7rv before you even start shooting. This is how I like to set-up my camera before I shoot so some settings might apply to you or not depending on your personal preferences.

What is your favourite feature on the Sony a7rv? 🤔

[PrimeStreet]

Thank you for a great instructional set-up video. One question: If, for example, I take landscapes and portraits, is there a quick custom one-button approach you could set up to switch some of the preferred settings from one to the other (say AF/AF area etc)?

[AnhNguyen-iqfs]

Nice instruction! What picture profile you normally use for still photo and video? Thanks,

[rodgamble]

Thank you for the hints on pre-sets. I have an earlier Sony model (A7s) and there seems to be a lot more to the A7R V. Since you know your way around the menu, you zipped through your demo quite quickly. Without a pause button I would have been lost.

Also, you would say "I like to..." but didn't mention why, which may have been useful to some of us.

Thank you again though, as with so many features, and no instruction manual with the camera, finding many of these menu options would have been difficult at best.

Can you confirm what the right focus settings should be if you are doing a portrait shoot with multiple people in frame. I just got the A7RV and dont want to mess up the settings with the new ai autofocus.

Hiii i want to know how to connect my camera to my iPhone and it’s been a year since I’ve been trying and I’m fed up 😭😭

[BeauBerman]

Helpful, thanks! Where is the movie record button located?

[angelathomas]

Hi I have the Sony A7R5 but cant find focus assist at all gone thru the menu with you but still not anywhere

[JaMichaelJordan-qz]

I am having trouble with my exposure using a flash and trigger. When I take a photo it’s over exposed no matter what I do. Please help!

[markshirley]

How can the A7R5 automatically save your last settings in photo and video.
On my Nikon the last setting you used remained as you switched.

Hi... is there an option in A7CR to auto review settings to 5 or 10 seconds to avoid pressing the button below... So after taking the image to camera goes direct to review mode....My old a7R3 had this option... but i cannot find it in my new a7CR... THX

[ronald]

When I turn the camera vertically I want the information in the viewfinder to turn as well. Do you know if that is possible in the Sony A7RV? I have not found it.

Sony A7RV Video Mode on the Record Settings. Which preference settings is the best 140m 4.22 10bit or 100m 4.2.0 8bit or 60m 4.2.0 8 bit which one do I select for higher quality video recording?

[RawStudio-uukl]

HI my sony RV is giving me problem. The problem is when i on my touch screen ON and go to settings. All the functions on Menu starts moving automatically without touching or using any functions bottoms 😢. I have no idea what is issue. Could you please help me out? Ill be grateful😊

[photohuntervlog]

The only comment I would make about this video is that you talk too fast and move to fast, a problem I have when explaining things. Otherwise, good job.

[KrispyNuggetBoutique]

I would disagree with the lens compensation settings. They add a crop factor to your shots, in other words, you could just do the same crop in post without giving up the control.

Also - you bought a $5k camera to shoot J-FINE? Really?

[lifestylesew]

Wow, that was just like you would have done it normally, It really needs to be a lot slower than this when teaching. My a7RV seems to have different words on the lists than you., probably because Im missing something. Guess Im going to have to look at some other video.

[iwatchedthevideo]

First of all, I hope that most people who bought an a7rv have basic knowledge about photography beside their smartphones. So already this "tutorial" fails on the premise. What makes it even worse, is that you dont even take the time to explain _why_ you chose these settings. Where do they shine, and when do they not? This leads me to believe you are just another clickbait driven gear pushing youtuber without any actual real life photo/video skills or experience :)
