Hello everyone,

 

I wanted to ask if it is possible to receive a live picture from the camera directly through the HDMI connector of the camera. I would like to use the camera mainly for filming with a fisheye lens, but need to record the output directly on my PC through a HDMI capture card.

 

If the output is possible. Do I get a full 1080p/25fps quality and will there also be some overlay text included?

 

Thank you very much in advance!

 

Best regards

Andreas

 

 

PS: If it is not possible, can someone recommend a cheap camera with such a feature please?

Capturing HDMI output and 25p is another story.

I tested with A6000 connected to TV with HDMI cable. The HDMI output looks OK, when I set to movie mode + A(Aparture), AF-C,  record format AVCHD,recording 60p 28M, HDMI Info display NO.

The output resolution is as clear as A7S 1080p. It means A6000 output seems 1080p.

Remember, you must set to Movie mode(rotating dial on top).

 

I do not think A5000 has same function, because A5000 is inexpensive body.

 

What is 25p?  In general, camera records at 60p/i and 24p.   I guess 25p is cinema camera, then you must look for cinema camera, not here.

      2 Primes or 1 Zoom?

      By bs.shoots · Posted

      I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.

      Sony a6300 after shutter repair

      By dev001 · Posted

      Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
