Thanks Jason - this was exactly the video I needed for accurately focusing my old Contax Zeiss 50mm f1.4 on my Sony a6700. I was having trouble getting sharp focus and knowing depth of field just using the viewfinder and touch screen. I thought I would have to sell the lens but instead, it's a keeper!
Thanx a lot for all the help. It was way easier to learn from ur video than to go thru the instruction manual
Thanks very much for suggesting this for my Astro photography class
Excellent video and very clearly explained...
Great explanation
Brilliant video. Absolutely learned so much from this. Thank you
Thanks Jason
Nice video, Jason. I’m looking forward to your review of the TTartisan 100/2.8 as well.
Thanks for the Video much appreciated 👍
Great video as always Jason. I’d be interested to see a more video focused manual focus video (lol) as a hybrid shooter? I’m sure there’s a lot to learn on that side
Thanks for such a good explanation!
Thank you very much expert for good details 👍
Very nice explanation! Just a question. On 1:43 : I need to do the same but when the camera is in Video Mode. But, if I double touch the screen, it shows follow target indicator. Please help!
Thanks!
I mainly use auto focus, is there an option while using af and magnify zoom to manual zoom when trying to focus? And how do you make it focus while it’s zoomed in if auto only?
Great video
Jason when you put the camera on to MED fire was it on Mechanical shutter or Electronic I could hear the shutter noise just wondering 🙏
Very good explanation but, how uncomfortable the screen on the side...
Jason I have a A6700 and this, ie Magnification in MF mode, does not work for me in the manner you explain. I can set it via the menu system but that is it. I have Auto magnifier in MF set and it still does not work. I was trying to some astro the other night for the first time with the A6700 and for the life of me could not get the mag to work so I could focus on a star in the manner you explain. I have another issue in that the swipe left and right does not change the icons on the screen
