I didn't see the 24-70 f/2.8 gm mentioned. Is that because of the size and price?

Foster Kerrison I despise Sony manuals. They are a labyrinth of information with lots of dark corners. And they don't even call the camera, "camera". It's the "product", not the camera.

I have been doing photography for a while and have watched numerous videos. But your description of f stop and aperture is the best I’ve ever heard

I love your simple, down to earth and jargon-free explanations and your relaxed, chatty delivery.

Hey Tony! I was looking for a training video about the A7II, I'm just at the beginning of the video but I was glad to see your face turn up on top of my search results , quality is always there!

Tony, this is the BEST tutorial video in the whole web. THANK YOU!!! I find myself returning to this video over and over again.

This is extremely helpful! Just bought an A7ii and watched this video 7 years ago still amazing. Have been shooting for here and there for a few years but I learned so much from this video. It's bring a lot value although I was working for a photography education studio (as an marketer) for a year. Good vid very helpful. Thanks!

I really like Tony’s teachings. I recently purchased a Sony alpha 7 o’clock to a couple years ago when it first came out. What I like about his teachings on the camera is he makes it very simple and he’s also easy to follow. He also seems like he’s a guy that really cares about about people. He is a phenomenal teacher and I will subscribe to his teachings on this camera. I am dyslexic and even with his teachings I can follow him very easily. Thanks Tony

One of the best tutorials I've ever watched! So well explained. Going to buy your How to Create Stunning Digital Photography book to watch more videos and learn more from you, thanks!

I couldn't agree with you more! I'm ashamed.... but I've had my camera for more than a year and I found the settings so daunting I packed it away. Thank you Tony, I now have a better grip on the settings :)

Hi T, sincerely, thank you and Chelsea. I've learned so much, from my first full frame (6d) to my present one (a7rii). When I started I followed your advice to invest in lenses, I wound up buying Canon 24-70 & 70-200 L's and now I own those plus a couple primes (a zeiss f4 16-35, and Canon 50 1.8). I've thoroughly enjoyed all. And on that note, and on the off chance someone is still reading this, T&C do a great job reminding folks to have fun within their means. All is much appreciated. After watching y'all for a year I've finally purchased your books this morning, will review after I've read. Have a good'n👍

Wow! what an incredibly well put together video. every part of it was fantastic, I especially appreciate you breaking down the video in the description! definitely will be hanging out in my favorites

Thanks Tony, you always explain things so clearly, it's such a valuable skill to have! The A7 mk1 has come down in price so much now I couldn't ignore it any longer. Thanks to your video I feel well prepared to tackle their notorious menu system. Cheers!

5 years later this is still helping people, love my new sony a7ii!

I really appreciate this video. Fact that its broken up with the index, you're realistic take on everything, the occasional jokes. I love it! I'm new to digital but familiar with film so the settings and menus are the least appealing part of going digital and this video simplifies things a ton and gets the basics worked out as well as some more advanced stuff. Thank you!

one of the best Tutorial on A7ii in KZread (Y) i learned alot from my camera,Thanks

Awesome T.T, I truly learned more from you then the other video's I have viewed. Thanks a bunch and look forward to your other T.T video's.

BEST SONY TUTORIAL IN KZread PERIOD !!!! Loved it made me comfortable & confident with the camera

This is an AMAZING tutorial! Thank you so much for putting it out there for people to learn step by step! Greatly appreciated :)

I can honestly state that you are the guy who taught me how to take good photos! Your books that I have are fantastic! Thank you so much for your work Tony!

What is not to like about this tutorial? Excellent! Thank you sooo much, Tony! Many long standing mysteries were either solved or clarified, and not for just this particular Sony model. Many of these menu items and concepts actually cross over into the later "A" mount camera menus, like my old A-77II. Very well done! I will be watching it several more times, until I know it all by heart! PS - for many years I did not know "ISO" was actually a word, not an acronym. Not only does it make someone who knows it "Look: a lot smarter. And it is a great piece of trivia as well! Thank you so much again!

Thank you so much Tony. This by far is the best A7RII tutorial I have found. I am coming from Canon and am struggeling a bit to get my head around all the controls of the Sony camera. Well done!

Still up to date ! Loved this tutorial, it’s becoming rare to see videos this informative

Simply perfect. I just moved from Canon to an a7ii and this really showed me how to use my camera.

Thank you for this video, especially for putting the content page. Made searching for what I needed so much easier! Keep up the great work.

Tony, thank you for your superb, objective and clear videos!! I'm among one of tens of thousands of followers. And thank you for publishing those awesome books as well. Your choice of words and pacing of speech is how others should use as benchmark.

A 5 year old tutorial and still very relevant. Thanks so much.

Thanks for this in depth run through! Answered a lot of questions I was coming across while learning my new a7ii

Tony, just wanted to give a huge "thank you" for this video. I'm borrowing a friend's a7 and this is the first legit camera I've ever touched. The lens on the camera is an adapted Nikon 35mm f/2D, so not all of Sony's functionality is available. Even still, this video has helped me a TON to figure out some of the basics of photography. I'm trying to decide between an a6500 and something like an 80D or T6i, so hands-on experience is great, and you're helping me not waste my time with the camera.

I've been watching your video tutorials for a few years now and they are Spot On! I have the A7Rii and I've been trying to get it to do Phase Detection focus points. Well you just solved why I can't find the feature. The A7Rii is not equipped with it. Only the A7ii and other models. Thank You Tony Northrup!

Tony, I just bought my first mirrorless alpha 7 and this video saved me a lot of time to understand the why’s and put the initial configuration. Plus I learned the way to go with future lens purchases. Thank you a lot. I did like, subscribed and will buy your book. Great work, thanks again.

terrific tutorial. just got the a7rii and this review is the best i've found. So inspiring actually that I've turned off my sound, purchased a copy of both your books and the neewer stimer. Youre the man tony, thanks for your time and effort.

Best camera tuturial ever. Full of useful information conveyed articulately and with with humour, I watched it right through, Something I rarely do. Thanks Tony :)

I just bought one. Your video has and will continue to be a great help. I’ll be coming back to it often. Thanks.

I was terrified by the length of this video but honestly this video was so informative and clear it was a blast learning. Thank you so much for the break down your great at what you do.

I LOVE THESE REVIEWS. THE BEST EVER YT CHANNEL ON LEARNING ABOUT YOUR CAMERA AND LENS!!! *Had to shout*

Thank you so much! Your delivery of information is so clean and on point. I appreciate being able to jump around in the video and I will be back many times to this tutorial I'm sure. :)

Great tutorial! Huge thanks for sharing and explaining so many details versus just a brief overview.

Holy Cow!! What a video!! Picked up my first Sony this week and this tutorial is amazing!! Thank you!

Great video! One of the best if not thee best camera/photography tutorial videos I've ever seen. Thank you so much.

Hey, I recently bought the Sony Alpha A7 and a 16mm F2.8 lens to go with it. I watched this video the whole way through with my camera in front of me and really appreciate all the advice and wisdom you put out to help photographers become accustomed to new kit!

Just taken the plunge and purchased a second hand Sony A7ii (body only). Migrating from micro four thirds. As funds stretched, will start by adapting my collection of vintage lenses until I can afford new Sony FE lens. Useful information for me in your tutorial, thank you so much.

I recently bought my first full frame and instead of going with a Nikon or Canon, I purchased a Sony Aii and I felt overwhelmed to learn how to use it. I have watched so many videos and got more frustrated because I did not feel like I was understanding how to get the best use out of my new camera. Today, everything got a lot more clearer for me as I watched your video. Thank you so much!!!!!!

I just got a new Sony a7. You explain this camera in simple terms so the complex becomes understandable. In fact I plan to purchase your book(s) so I can be a much better photographer. Thank you so much. Your tutorials are amazing indeed!!

Nice job Tony. Well done and VERY professional and informative.

Very nice in depth info, I have the A7S II mostly for video, looking forward to your video tips.

Thank you for this video! Very well made and the timings in the description was a nice touch.

17 min into this video, and I can only say it's the best tutorial I've seen so far !!!!

Every time I watch this tutorial I adapt my setting preferences. Trial and error datum clip, good job.

A fantastic tutorial! So easy to watch. You feel like you are in good hands.

This is one of the best tutorials I have ever watched, really clear and very informative, Thank you!

Super useful!! It's amazing how detailed is the explanation of everything!

WOW, i just got one of these and this video is blowing my mind, THANKS!!!!

..receiving my a7 ii today, decided to buy instead of a7r ii for money and kit lens...when a7r iii is released i will upgrade. Tony, as usual you have done a masterful job, my only wish is that you guys reviewed all of my hobbies !!! so if you could develop a love for motorcycling, boating, food, parenting and woodworking it would be helpful. thanks for what you do!!!

I'm happy to say I've been using the Sony 24-240mm and it is super sharp at all settings. So glad I got it!

New to the Sony family and I'm super thankful for this! Thank you!

Got my A7II yesterday and now after watching this video I am totally ready to get out and start shooting. Thank you so much for that great video!

Thanks a lot Tony! Just got a second hand Sony A7ii and these tips and tricks are very useful for getting familiar with this piece of technique. Now time for practising, shooting, and having fun with it!

I agree with all the positive comments, thank you so much this is a great tutorial, I’ve learned more in the first 20 minutes than I have in the last five years owning the camera

This was SUCH a good tutorial. Simple but very thorough

Used this to navigate the Sony A7S ii I just rented from Samys here in LA. SOOOO SO helpful man. Legit. Thanks!

Sooooo much more comfortable with my camera . Switched from canon and was not ok until I watched this. Thank you !!

Thank you so much. After searching on KZread for days to find a video that shows me how to use my A7rii I came across your video. Amazing job thanks for helping people like me. 🙏🏻

Hi Tony, Thanks a lot for this immensely helpful video. Just bought my A7M2 a week ago & after seeing this video, it makes it much easier to use this beautiful camera. Thanks again & keep posting.......

Very nice tutorial guys, I just got myself today a Sony 7II and I really feel comfortable in using it by just watching your tutorial. Thank you.

I just bought Sony a7 2 in 2024 as a beginner this video is still helpful today. Thank you.

Tony your training videos are excellent. Your have a great way of imparting a wealth of knowledge. Consequently, I bought your ebook.

Great explanation. Sony A7ii is my first camera im a complete novice right out of the box and this tutorial has explained it so well, thanks sooo much

I am a fairly new photographer and just picked up an a7R II. This was an amazing video, one of the best I’ve ever watched. Thanks so much for putting this together. The explanations and demonstrations were excellent and I just went over to buy your book on Amazon!

Wow. This is a great video. I watched it during my lunch hour. I just bought the a7ii and was having second thoughts but after watching what you posted here I feel I have seen an improvement in my photography already.,

you really help me a lot... just bought my sony a7. you are so good in explaining..

Just bought the a7 mk2 and have been experimenting with it over the past few days. This has been a really clear, helpful and well made video for someone new to taking digital photography seriously like myself. Learning back button focus was a revelation, looking forward to playing with it. Will definitely check out the books as well! Thank you.

+Tony Northrup I have to be honest. Between AF Lock and Eye AF , I'm finding myself using backbutton focus far less often then on my Canon. Still very useful but maybe less so than prior IMO. @tombeynon Definitely bookmark this as its far handier than the manual, I did it with the A6000 video and it saved me alot of time.

Great video, Thanks! My local camera shop would thank you if they knew I watched it! I've been running back and forth to the store with ALL my questions - they are most likely tired of me. YOUR video answered so many questions and now when I've forgotten something, all I have to do is review your video! Thank you!

Thanks Tony ! You have been wonderful! Thank you for such a profound video!

Oh my goodness, this was great! I just took a 3-day class and I could have watched this video. Upside, I made great friends in class! Thank you for this video!

Just got the A7ii and this was soooo useful. Thanks man 🤙

Awesome! Just awesome. Slowly watched while trying everything on my new A7ii. Thanks alot.

Another fabulous video Mr Northrup! Just great!!

Just got an AR7II -- and this is by far the best tutorial. Anywhere.

Thanks Tony Northrup for another great overview video! Keep up the great work.

Thank you Tony, It's awesome. already bought Mitakon 0.95 and love it.

Really enjoy your presentation. Incredibly helpful!!

Btw love your video, I've seen it so many times and I'm still learning new things, thank you!

Thank you Tony such a wonderful training material.

This video led to me buying your book; SDP. Thanks for uploading such a good quality, informative video.

Grate job Tony. Extremely helpful video as always.

Another enjoyable and informative video which is much appreciated Tony.

I’ve been eying this vid for about a year now wanting to watch it bc it’s so long but I finally did it and it was well worth it. Now I know everything about my camera

Great comprehensive tutorial- thanks Tony !!

Thank you very much for your patience and explanation.
