I'm trying to use a Sony Alpha A6100 with a BlackMagic Intensity Pro 4K capture device, and having problems with Eye-AF getting disabled. For background, when I use the same camera with an Epiphan AV.IO 4K capture device, it works fine. Specifically, I go into the Setup3 > 4K Output Select menu, select "HDMI ONLY (30p)", and get 2160p29.97 output (so not actually 30, but good enough since I know what I'm getting) with Eye AF working great. Same thing happens with an Elgato Camlink 4K capture device. By contrast, when I plug the camera into the BlackMagic capture device, several things are different. First, the "4K Output Select" menu is unavailable. Second, on my screen I get a blinking "STBY" icon, as if it weren't plugged into an HDMI device. Finally, of course, there is no Eye AF, which is unfortunate since the improved AF was the reason I got this camera in the first place. I can confirm that I am getting 2160p29.97 output from the camera, though. There are several reasons why I would prefer to use the camera with the BlackMagic Intensity Pro card (in addition to the fact that I paid $200 for the card and own it). For starters, because the card is PCIe, it can do YUV 4:2:2 instead of 4:2:0. Second, in my experience the USB capture can be not quite as reliable just because USB is a bit flaky (I tested 5 different PCIe USB cards before finding one that seems to work okay with 4K capture). Can anyone thing of why the camera would not give me access to the "4K Output Select" menu with some capture devices, or if there's some other way of forcing Eye AF in my situation? Thanks.

I've been using my A7III with the Elgato Cam Link 4K with no issues. HDMI Resolution was set to 2160p/1080p with 60p Output. Everything else in HDMI Settings was set to off and 4K Output Sel. was set to HDMI 24p or something. The image coming into OBS was basically 2160p24. This week I decided to buy the Blackmagic ATEM Mini and this is where my issues began. Plugging into the ATEM I got nothing, a black screen. Connected to the Cam Link and got a picture. Looking at the specs for the ATEM it'll only accept 1080p or lower. Changed the HDMI Resolution to 1080p with the Output set to either 24 or 60 with no luck. Tried connecting to a regular TV and the TV says no signal. It's almost like the camera won't output anything lower than 4k. I reset the camera with no luck. I haven't tried a different cable (Insignia cable).. But it's weird the cable would work with 4K but not regular old 1080p. I tried other sources on the ATEM and they're working perfectly fine. Tried an A6300 and that worked just fine with the cable. Hooked it up to a 4K monitor and different resolutions work just fine. The A7III works just fine in 4K mode on the 4K monitor, but 1080p doesn’t work. Anyone ever run into this issue before? Any ideas what could be going on? I’m at a complete loss as to what the issue might be

Hey guys, first post. I have an a6300, and I just aquired an Atomos Ninja Flame. I use the a6300 on a Movi M5 quite a bit, and the monitor helps with shot framing. I have been messing around with the best presets for outputting to the monitor, becuase I'm using that to record everything now (except 120p, a6300 doesnt hdmi out that) I seem to only be able to output 4k when im in movie mode, which is a bit frustrating. Is this just the way it is, or is there some small setting I'm missing? Thanks in advance, Evan
