Camera-Specific Tips
- Use the In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) on the a7CR to capture sharp images in low light conditions. This feature helps you shoot handheld at slower shutter speeds without introducing blur.
- The a7CR's electronic viewfinder (EVF) offers a live histogram display, helping you balance exposure in real-time. This feature is especially useful to avoid overexposed highlights or underexposed shadows.
- Customize the C1 and C2 buttons on the a7CR for quick access to your most-used settings. Assign functions like Focus Peaking or Zebra Patterns to these buttons for faster adjustments.
