Is it possible to use the eye autofocus feature in 4k modes?   I am able to get it working in 1080 but not in 4k however it seems to recognize my face in 4k and do a pretty good job.  I just switched from a Canon EOS R and just assumed this camera would do this.

Anybody have any issues self filming in 4k without eye af if it does not indeed work in the 4k mode?

Thanks!

Yes, I have the same problem. I hope there is a solution.

I knew this was the solution :?

So the only thing was bothering the Eye AF was the setting- Control with/smartphone - Always Connected. There are many weird "Not Available" kind of bugs like these. They should include link in the error message to the related setting, so that we can go there directly and change it. 

I put my camera on flight mode always. I dont use any app things, Because the Sony mobile apps are extremely lame.

      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
