I actually had the A7C and A7C II side-by-side for a couple of weeks (until I sold the A7C) and the difference in face/eye detection was one of the things I was interested in testing, as the ...

Yes, theoretically you need twice the linear resolution to have a complete color information at each output pixel (four photosites for each pixel). However Bayer interpolation is quite efficient ...

Moire - yes, noise - no, if we talk about the same area (e.g. A7SIII vs A7IV in 4K/30p) This is not how it works. The raw image is first debayered for a full RGB matrix and then the result is ...

This is how it's done on my A7C II, I guess it should be the same on the A7 IV: - enter playback mode, press down (to enter multiple image view) - press Menu, select Delete→Multiple img. - press Fn ...

What I see is not really hunting, but back-focus at the end of the zoom range. There can be several reasons for this, but it's hard to tell from the video. I would probably check AF Subj. Shift ...

You are responding to my post above and in the meantime I upgraded to the A7C II. My view hasn't changed though - I don't see any downside to the rangefinder-styled body (compared to a centered ...

I have never heard of or experienced such an issue. While I have the A7C II for a relatively short time, I have used FF Sony cameras for more than 5 years now (A7 III, A7C and A7C II) and they are ...

There's is not much to adjust. You can either choose the level of shadow lifting manually in five steps (Lv1 to Lv5) or you leave it in auto, which chooses the level automatically, allegedly based ...

Let me clarify things a bit. DRO Auto is most certainly available on the A7C II, that's what I use for jpegs. But it's a different feature than HDR. DRO (moderately) lifts shadows in a single ...

It works for me by using DNS, not just IP address. I'd suggest trying out plain ftp to see if the problem is in the sftp protocol or something else.

You can already do it with the A7C, which you have in your gear list. If you do not want to keep the shutter button half-pressed (or a custom button pressed), you can use the touchscreen to ...

As a point of reference - ftp transfer from my camera to my home ftp server does work from internet using plain ftp and passive mode, I have just checked it (though I typically use ftp transfer on ...

Do you have Tracking on? I have just tested it on my A7C II and it literally jumps to a face half a frame away with the "Wide" setting, even when using a small spot.

The point is that you can control how large an area is used for the initial subject detection. With narrow, the camera will indeed not initiate tracking on a subject outside the focus area. This ...

The primary reason for the APS-C crop mode is to implement compatibility with APS-C lenses for both photo and video. It's nice that Sony let's us use it with FF lenses as well (and even vice ...

The Fn button is dedicated to calling the Fn menu, so it can't be customized in shooting mode. But there are 8 customizable buttons, I don't think that's exactly few. If you don't want to dedicate ...

When talking about shadow noise, the 24Mpx sensor in the A7III (also used by other manufacturers in cameras like the Nikon Z6 or Panasonic S5) is among the very best on the FF market. Newer, ...

Set up a custom button to "Display Main Menu".

If the lens is not getting significantly softer with such very small apertures, then it's quite probably a sign that it's not very sharp to begin with. Or you are not examining it with very much ...

There is actually two stops between 1" and 1/2.3", so the f/22 FF equivalent for 1/2.3" should be f/4.
