Hello Alpha Forum, newbie trying to understand my a7111 for little over a year with some experience. I was shooting outdoors of flowers images were coming out fine then all of the sudden images looked close to dark with some light back monitor. I cycled thru menu thinking I push wrong settings maybe on playback settings or another setting. Week before I was getting good results shooting the full moon with a used Sony G4.5-5.6/70-300 OSS I just purchased from a dealer, I don't think this effected the monitor even though I was shooting in manuel focus and on manuel control. What's interesting I put camera in Automatic and images on back monitor turned out fine hopefully it a easy fix. Can someone please help me and give me advice if they had same problems. Thank You

    • That's Exposure Compensation value.

    • I've bought a chipped adaptor in the hope of using M42 lenses on my Sony Alpha 230 with focus confirmation. This has worked with my Canon EOS 400D but that doesn't have an in-camera AF drive. However, I'm finding that the Sony's in-camera AF drive behaves as if an AF lens is attached by audibly running and there is no focus confirmation. Is there any way I can stop the drive running and have focus confirmation?
    • Thinking about control of images in low light with blur and movement I would like to experiment more with me manually varying aperture during a shot. With a manual lens this allows me to start with a small aperture and collect some fluidity and then snap lens to much larger aperture to give a more solid defined image. To date in a few quick trials I have just used a fixed exposure time judged by seeing exposure at a few apertures and then just trying my dexterity. A next step up would be that the camera closes the shutter when it has accumulated enough light. Maybe some long exposure /astronomy contexts might do that sort of thing....? To help imagine I'm thinking musicians in a bar, animals in low light, individuals in motion in some context. Mostly I seem to need near 1s exposure to synch my aperture change and have enough time. A de-clicked lens or one with a loose aperture ring would help (maybe I have at home on the shelf) but I am away with just 2 old Olympus lenses and TBH the aperture rings are a bit stiff and close to the focus ring... Any thoughts or suggestions?
