Sony A7S II Tips & Tricks
« on: December 14, 2020, 12:28:24 PM »
I recently just acquired a Sony A7S II and was wondering if any other pals have some trips and tricks they'd like to share. I'm running a canon 8-15mm fisheye on it with a metabones gen 4 adapter so i'd love to hear from others what zoom ratio they use to decrease the vig.

Don’t know if you already do this but use picture profiles!! You’re going to have to learn how to color grade but it will increase your dynamic range and make your image look way more cinematic. If you’re not taking advantage of it then you’re not really using your a7sii to it’s fullest capability. There’s hundreds of YouTube videos explaining what each PP does and how to use them.
