thejoey Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I am trying to customize 'Audio Rec Level', but it tells me "This operation or setting not available as follows - Shoot Mode: Manual Exposure". Excuse me but I don't understand how the two settings correlate? I want to keep manual exposure, but maybe I am missing something obvious. By the way, if it is in any way relevant, I am using my customized mode dial "1". Thank you in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTC Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) Has to be in VIDEO mode. (Verified using A7Sii) You need to have selected MANUAL in VIDEO mode (4,5) for it to work and not photo mode (1,2,3). Image 4 showing P instead of M but it works for all iterations when doing video. Remember to toggle back up to where there's an orange box around the mic level adjustment scale as shown (5) or any changes won't stick. Don't leave the menu when RESET is highlighted or it reverts back to whatever pervious level you set. Welcome, dear visitor!

Thad E Ginathom Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Sony's error messages are not very helpful. Sometimes they might as well say You can't do this. Because! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engineers know what they mean and caused it and possibly how to remedy it but everyones else is left in the dark. Sony might have well have thrown up a screen saying Stop Trying to Do That. Equally as helpful. Thad E Ginathom 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
