The Sony Camera Autofocus (AF) System for Video Production




The Sony Camera Autofocus (AF) System for Video Production

For decades the autofocus feature on cameras has been exclusively for photographers. You would be laughed off set if you switched your video camera to autofocus.

But the autofocus system for the most recent Sony Alpha cameras is a GAME CHANGER for video production, something as important to the world of digital photography as the release of the Canon 5D Mark II back in 2008. The face and eye detection in these new Sony mirrorless cameras is so reliable and precisce that you can now free yourself up to think only about your framing and subject's performance. On larger productions, you'll no longer need to hire focus pullers or first ACs, saving yourself some serious cash.

But with all these new features, it can take a few weeks of experimenting with your camera's settings before you truly grasp everything you need to. That, or you can take this 1-hour course.

We'll cover all the in-depth camera settings such as the AF Transition Speed, AF Subject Shift Sensitivity, the Seven Different Focus Areas, Focus Point Circulation, Focus Peaking, and how to Register Faces within the camera and give them ordered focus priority. We'll even discuss a hybrid AF/MF approach and cover customizable buttons that will allow your camera to quickly capture the most cinematic content possible in any situation.

The concepts learned in this class apply to many different Sony cameras, but the specific menu layouts we will be working with are found in Sony a7iii, Sony a7siii, Sony a7iv, Sony a7riv, Sony a7c, Sony a6600, Sony fx3, Sony fx30, and Sony Alpha 1 cameras.

This class is all about Sony's AUTOFOCUS. It is not an all-encompassing course on these Sony cameras or video production at large.
