Questions & Answers

The Canon lenses in this camera are well recognized, but will they be able to focus well?

It is equipped with an MC-a7R3 For me, the 11 adapter for Canon lens "hunts" a lot, and I was only able to use it on macro as a manual setting. As a result, I would expect the adapters not to work on the R4. Buying this wonderful camera and then using Canon lenses is not the smartest move. Aside from the functionality questions, a business perspective shows that Canon and Nikon are increasingly falling behind Sony, since they are so undercapitalized compared to Sony, so I see their problem getting worse and Sony continuing to gain market share rapidly. I had to sell all my Canon equipment because the value of my lenses greatly dropped in the time it took for me to bite the bullet.

How long will the 4K footage last if this camera has a 30 minute time limit?

The fact that there is no 4K time limit is a real plus. Would be nice if it could be done with the firmware for the A7R III

Is the footage shot in 4k 120 frames per second?

Thanks for asking! This unit can record movies in 4K using XAVC S at 24 or 30 frames per second.

How much of a difference is there between Sony capture and Nikon raw image processing software ?

It is called Imaging Edge and can be downloaded for free from our website. It comes with 3 pieces of software Remote, which can be used for tethered or wireless shooting, depending on the model of the camera. Using Edit to develop your RAW images, then using Pixel Shift Pictures to combine the picture and View to review and organize the picture.

This is not where we should be focusing
3/5

My disappointment is so great that I am returning it in order to get another one. In this case, the camera is struggling to focus properly which causes the image to not be as sharp as it could be. My Sony A7R II is doing much Others are experiencing similar problems on the Facebook forums I even conducted tests on the tripod between the II and IV and found that the results were the same.

I am not paying attention
3/5

Unfortunately, I am also disappointed, so I plan to return my A7R IV There is an issue with the focusing on the camera. Shoots more than 80% of the time but misses the target. It doesn't matter what the ISO, shutter speed, aperture, lens, eye tracking, spot focus, tripod, etc. are the camera misses focusing on almost all of the images. I prefer my Sony A7R even though it has a much slower auto focus. Update

Change to a 3 star rating My A7R IV has been replaced and the focus issues have gone away. A critical problem with this model is that some units do not focus properly. If your unit isn't working, take a look at dpreview or other forums. If it's having a problem, have.

The quality of the images is amazing when compared to that of the I'm impressed by the quality of these straight from the camera images
5/5

Although I have not yet attempted to use it for wild life photography, I have taken some beautiful landscape pictures There is a marked difference between the images produced by 7R III and those from 7R II. A change was made to my entire set up from the Nikon D810. The decision I made was a good one for me. Recommended lenses to use with it are as follows. This Sony 16-inch model comes in two sizes It has a focal length of 35mm and an aperture of f/2. The screen in the image above is 8 (landscape). Sony Two portraits* Sony 85 mm lens, four (including portraits) I took 8 photos (portraits) of one person*focussed on Sony Animals in the wild (40 mm).

A great resource for those who are in need! Is that the case, though? There will be some people for whom the A7R4 isn't the right choice, but if your niche meets the needs of high resolution and mirrorless performance, this is a great deal
5/5

I am able to achieve handheld focus on insect eyes with the Sony 90mm Macro coupled with the Sony TX-180mm. It is possible for me to take photographs of tiny jumping spiders, assassin bugs, flowers, lichens, moss, and all kinds of subjects that are extremely minuscule. It's APSC mode (or crop in Lightroom) that makes this both the highest resolution Full Frame camera and the best Crop Sensor camera of its kind. You can win and you can lose! Combining Sony 24-megapixel camera with the 36-megapixel Sony The 70 F2 is the second generation. At 8 GM, I'll be able to shoot all day long. A day without work Images taken with a macro lens. There are many things a street photographer can do, like photography of infants, family photos, etc. Having dual memory card slots is something you will appreciate, so if dual memory card slots are important to you, this feature is for you. There are a lot of mirrorless cameras (like Nikon) that are ridiculous! This is such a sad story! You can't really use a camera as a tool if you don't have dual memory cards in it. The risks of losing pictures are too great for professionals. The size of the file is large, and managing the space can be hard, a fast computer will help you process and manage the Sony RAW files are not supported by Google Drive, so I also save jpg versions in case I need to view them quickly. A lot of space has been lost. It will take more time to upload. Considering the fact that it is a brand new app, this one is actually really good. There is always a connection, but you must do things in a certain order to make it work. There should be a fix for With this app, I can control my exposure triangle, shoot, and review data at low resolution. The remote shutter is ideal for use with this kit. I cannot focus by touching the screen. My dream is to have remote focus with an integrated A focus stacking mode in the app would make my life a lot easier. Although I likely won't ever see this, I might just be a dreamer. I'm sure you'll agree, and here's How could Sony do such a thing? Although the resolution is poor, the biggest sin is the fact that the screen does not flip around like on a Canon camera! Wow, Sony is on top of things! Having a vlogger on your channel is a big deal, don't ignore Hopefully the app can benefit you at least in terms of remote video viewing via your smartphone. I've been able to work around that thus far. However, I can see that not working well for people who blog often. The majority of people would do just fine with an A7R3 instead of the A7. The savings could you benefit from them? Do you have more accessories or glass that you can use there? What is more useful for you, this jump in resolution or this? I hope so! It is important to have such a high resolution to photograph macros. Knowing what you need is key! I hope this helps you choose the next camera you want to buy! It is great to have a.

Sony continues its successful run
5/5

With a resolution of 20 megapixels, fast autofocus, and a compact form factor, Sony A7R IV has the features that make it a strong candidate for the Camera of the Year award. I was a bit disappointed to find so little effort put into the camera's menu. In addition to 14-megapixels, the camera also offers The raw files must be 32-bit and uncompressed. Sony's compression may create potentially destructive files. It is still not possible to compress data in a lossless or visually lossless way. In addition to not being able to shoot in 4K/60p, the a7R IV is also an 8-megapixel camera. A video camera that records at bit rates. The majority of rivals now offer 10-year terms You can capture or output bit data as follows I find it odd that it isn't available for Log footage since it gives it a significant boost in terms of editing versatility. As opposed to addressing existing quirks and foibles, Sony focuses on bringing in new features that demand attention instead. It is fair to say that Full-Featured does not offer new features When Eye AF is selected, full-frame AF is used It is impressive how time tracking works.

Accurate focus with automatic focus
3/5

A problem with the camera has developed where it no longer responds. When I received the item, it had been tested with two different Sony lenses. I am sorry to say the A7R IV I received is a faulty There are two issues with the A7R IV I have consistently experienced. The word "a" means "one" and the number "one" means "one" It is almost impossible to focus accurately with autofocus. The A7R IV I received failed to deliver a still image or a moving image ( Still or Moving ). I can't think of anything else I could do. The camera becomes unresponsive while trying to focus. While looking forward to owning the new and improved Sony A7R IV, I don't feel less than EXCELLENCE is worthy of owning it.

Yeah, I am. I was dissatisfied.
