    The best settings I've found after using the A7II for over 3 years. Picture profiles are optional as everyone has different preferences of how they want their videos to look! Let me know what you use in the comments!

    Don't use NTSC if you live in Europe this is a huge mistake I often see from other videomakers because they want that 10 fps more (60 instead of 50) for having smoother footage, but that's not going to make a huge difference and you will have a lot of flickering if you're shooting indoors or with artificial lights because in EU we use 50 Hz and in USA 60 Hz

    Thank you! I switched to sony for work and was mostly looking at how to shoot video with it since I dont know a lot about video. It looks like the video settings are automatic once you are shooting? So there's no manual adjustments? I could be totally wrong.

    Hey dude, thanks for the video, it was really helpful, appreciate it! Just one query about these settings:
    I have 3 SanDisk Extreme Pro Memory Cards at 256GB with 200MB/s speed, but my camera is telling me that they aren't compatible for a File Format at XAVC S. Would you know what the problem here is? If unsolvable, would any of the other two settings be suitable? Question open to anyone else in the comments too! Thanks a bunch!
    I am a beginner with cameras, have recently picked up the Sony A7II to film outdoors footage whilst I am backpacking on trails - for context.

    Hey there! We are using these setting for our videos however I find that when I upload my footage in Final Cut Pro and start to edit, any bright footage is really hard to edit and lacks depth. DO you have any advice on what settings I should be adjusting for this?

    • @Zacharytm
      @Zacharytm  Před 11 měsíci +1

      If your finding your footage to be bright, it means your over exposing your images. You’ll
      need to adjust aperture, ISO, and shutter speed depending on the lighting situation you are in.

  • @anastasiavetr7257
    @anastasiavetr7257 Před 3 měsíci

    What shutter speed can I set when shooting in daylight? I was recommended 1/50, but I either have overexposure or poor picture quality due to the dark filter. What filter are you using by the way?
    What happens to the picture if you shoot at 1/200 or 1/1000 in daylight? I look through the videos I shot and see that some are of better quality, some are worse, but I can’t see what settings were used. Shows only frame rate 50 fps.
    And I also wanted to ask how to take photos and videos in one shooting if the settings I make for video (even specifically in video mode) reconfigure the settings in photo mode at the same time - M?

  • @BorisZX6R
    @BorisZX6R Před 10 měsíci

    PAL or NTSC (not NSTC) is region dependent. NTSC is the video standard commonly used in North America and PAL is the video standard which is popular in most of the European and Asian countries. NTSC is 30/60fps and PAL is usually 25/50fps.

    • @D3Media1234
      @D3Media1234 Před 9 měsíci

      Yeah i am using PAL... i am in Australia and i am shooting in 25/100fps.
      One thing that confused me when i first started is that ntsc and pal have different opinions in your settings.
