Tips for Your Camera

  • Your Sony a7R IIIA has in-body stabilization (~5.5 stops). In this scene, you can often handhold at slower shutter speeds than the table shows.

These values are general recommendations. The wizard gives you values optimized for your Sony a7R IIIA and lens — plus step-by-step menu paths.

Camera-Specific Tips

  • The a7R IIIA's electronic viewfinder (EVF) allows you to enable a live histogram overlay, helping you to see exposure levels in real-time. This feature ensures your shots are perfectly exposed before you take them.
  • Customize the C1 and C2 buttons on the top of the camera to quickly access your most-used settings. This allows you to adjust settings on the fly without diving into the menu, making your shooting process more efficient.
