I just switched to Sony and this video is a lifesaver. Thanks for sharing your settings, so excited to start using my camera.

Bro, it's almost like you started your channel for me.

So i got my a7iii 8 days ago and your channel has been amazing in helping setup and edit.

Really grateful. I'll be following for a long time.

Love this, thank you for sharing. Between you and Jason Vong you’ve saved me countless hours of “menu frustration.”

Can I just say I used all of these settings and it was the best shoot I’ve ever done ! I feel like crying thank you so much I wish I could subscribe and like 1000 times over!!!💓

Love this video. Thanks for all the detail. 👍I just purchased the a7III Thursday and I love it. Now it’s practice time.

This was a lifesaver.. just got my a7 iii today :))) I came from a 5D iii as well!

[jaishruti]

Thanks a ton have just shifted from canon 5 mk2 to Sony a 7 iii your video was very helpful in understanding the settings at a short period of time instead of visiting the lengthy manual

Todo el Pedo..!

Truly appreciate you taking the time to share.

Alas!!!! So glad I found you. I need to watch more of these! Great camera with a horrid learning curve! But worth the pain!

[nicholasboehme]

Thanks for the video! I bought a new lens and I'm going to try it with your settings today! Only difference is that I changed my ISO to auto opposed to 100, I have a flash but I'm mostly planning on using this without a flash.

[JustDavidMinistries]

You deserve my subscription. Thanks so much for this. I found most of my settings are the same as yours but I still got a lot from you. You are amazing.

[standhd]

I just got that camera recently, and now you got a new subscriber because you just showed me a lot! Thank you!

[pixiedust]

I just found your channel. This video is so super helpful. Thank you :)

Nice video buddy, I have recently switched from Nikon to Sony. The menu interface of Nikon is much easier and user friendly. Your explanation is very much helpful in understanding the complex menu system of Sony a7 mk III Though I would like to use the AF ON button as I was used to use the back button of my Nikon D7500 camera. Thank you and a big thumbs up from Kolkata, India

When I say this video is a LIFE SAVER .. I'm not going to even get into detail but THANK YOU

[kyxprod]

Thank you Eli. I try this settings of yours. And subscribed done. Nice tutorial plain and simple.

[ohitsdarren]

Thanks for the guide! Moved over from Canon and you saved me! 🤗

You’ve been so good to us! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and techniques. I have a quick question! It has nothing to do with this video. When you go on a shoot, after setting up your camera with the correct exposure like shutter speed, iso, and aperture for the look that you want... at what power do you normally start with your flash and how close do you put it to subject? The a7iii back screen isn’t that great, how do you know if the exposure is okay. Do you look at your histogram? Sometimes things look a little weird when looking at the A7iii back screen. Thanks in advance
