I forgot mention in the video that Sony lent me the Sony A7C II camera to help me make this video. No money was exchanged and they have no say on the content of my video.

Your the only sports yt that really help me decide on what camera to get thanks I recommend your page for anybody 10/10

These videos are absolute gems. Thanks for these - I work in sports broadcasting and have yearned to be a videographer and have that creative freedom. This is literally the perfect video as I plan on upgrading from my a6400 to a dedicated videography camera.

@@BeyondTheGame_E I work for the Portland Sea Dogs baseball team (AA affil. of the Boston Red Sox). I started out as a camera operator, and now I am directing for the MiLB and MLB channels since graduating with my bach's in May. It's a sweet gig, but I miss being close to the action and on the field. The skills of broadcast camera operating don't entirely translate to what you and many other creative-focused people do, so thats my goal. Being a videographer for a major league team or in boxing/martial arts is the dream.

Thoughts on the rolling shutter performance on the A7IV and A7C II for sports video? Lots of reviewers urge people to stay away from these cameras for sports videos given their slow rolling shutter, but creators like yourself prove that it's possible to work with them. Curious what your take on that is or whether you have best practices to work the sensor readout speed. Great stuff!

Personally I’ve never ever felt like rolling shutter was holding me back on any camera I tried, including the zv-e10, and I’ve never heard anyone say that their great shot was ruined by rolling shutter. It is technically a problem but it will most likely never affect you.

Great info...THANK YOU!!!! Where did you get the sticker that's your camera cap?

@BeyondTheGame_E

Thanks! The sticker is from a company called Field Made Co. They make all sorts of cool stickers for camera and lens caps.

Thanks for this solid review E....when you shoot 24P sports action are using 180º shutter? Thanks!

For the most part yes. I might try to go with a slightly faster shutter speed but not that much faster.

Hello. Please could you advise me which camera or video camera to buy to record my son's amateur soccer games? Taking into account that I am in the stands at a long distance and I need to zoom in on the plays enough so that they look close and all the field players are perfectly focused. I currently have a very old Sony camcorder from more than 10 years ago with which I record in 1080P at 50 fps and edit the videos with Final Cut.

I don’t know much about camcorders so I can’t recommend any. But if you’re looking for a mirrorless camera, I always recommend the Sony ZV-E10 for beginners. The distance won’t have anything to do with the camera though. It’s all about the lens that you’ll choose to go with your camera.

This camera seems like a good option for my next upgrade 😮

I think all the newer models (i.e. A7Cii & 6700) have the ability to turn on/use "subject tracking" - are you using this feature? I'd love to see a video on how you would use some of the new AI features for video and setting/set up including custom buttons. Keep up the great content! I didn't think of using the A7Cii for sports videography, but it totally makes sense.

@BeyondTheGame_E

Thanks! Yes I do use subject tracking sometimes but it is sort of hit and miss as other players get in your way.

Hey E - I recently saw this video and saw your KIT Site for the equipment you use. I am curious to know if you would pair the Sony A7C II with the Sony FE 24-70 mm F2.8 GM lens for mainly basketball videography. I am planning on learning and doing this as a side hustle. And want to start with nice equipment I won't have to upgrade anytime soon. Or what lens would you recommend with the AC7 II? Thanks!!

@BeyondTheGame_E

Yes this is a great combo for basketball. But if you wanted a bit more range, you could go with this lens instead kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4RslrCBk7WoeNo.htmlsi=8Oh5Ll0HIURZScM_
