146 megapixel panorama of Moscow Full size Sony ILME-FX30 + Sony E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS

Hi everyone! I am regularly using my Sony Alpha 6400 as a webcam to conduct my online seminars via zoom. It works very well. Now I need to do it via GoToMeeting for one client. I connect my camera via the "Elgato Cam Link 4K" adapter to my Windows 10 PC. In GoToMeeting the video immediately freezes, GoToMeeting is not able to initialize the WebCam. GoToMeeting says it only supports up to 1280×720 pixels. My question: Is there any way to reduce the output of the A6400 to this resolution? As far as I know it is only able to output 1920 x 1080p (HD) or 3840 x 2160p (4K). Any hints are welcome. Thanks, Matthias

Hey Sony Alpha community, I am planning a landscape timelapse project in British Columbia for this summer and I have a Sony Alpha 7S II. I know that all the good landscape photographers out there use the A7R II or a camera with similar resolution for landscape photography. In my case, though, I will export a 4K video file for which my 4240 × 2832 still image size of the A7S II should be enough. I will not print my photos in large formats like most landscape photographers. So my question is, how important is the resolution of my camera when shooting a 4K timelapse video? What is the difference in the final image quality when exporting a 4240 × 2832 (A7S II) image file in 4K compared to exporting a 7952 x 5304 (A7R II) image file in 4K? What really matters is the resolution of your export, or am I wrong? Of course I understand that using a A7S II over an A7R II will limit my ability to crop in the image while still keeping enough resolution. I hope you guys understand my problem and can help me. Cheers, Flo
