15 Amazing [Sony A7CII & A7CR Accessories] You Need to Buy!

[@ShyYoung]

Which accessory did you find useful?

[@flavi0r]

i love the thumb grip, its so useful!

[@larry_chen]

That grip extension with AirTag compartment is a great idea!

[@ShyYoung]

Yes it is. Thanks for stopping by

[@jedsamson5278]

What is air tag?

[@stevenwaldstein2249]

Thank you for the video. I own both the A7CII and A7CR so I’ve bought too many accessories already but your video very good and straight forward. I don’t shoot video so for me the full cage is not something I use but all are good recommendations. We need to see if anyone can create an eyecup that doesn’t use the hot shoe. Don’t know why Sony didn’t copy the A6700’s design. You might consider recommending a good battery charger since Sony didn’t include one for new users. I’ve got many different ones from all of my cameras so weighing in on this might help many. Take care.

I Agree with you 100% on the eye cup. I still have a A6000 and even the eye cup on that is great. Good suggestion on the charger. I’ll add that on the next video. Thank you! BTW, I’m probably going to get the A7CR eventually. How’s the 60mp on there?

I love the peak design cuff strap. I always use it

[@ShyYoung]

Me too!

[@umaraslam7731]

Im rn saving up money for an a7c ii this fall. But I have been trying to find a eye cup that doesn't use the hotshoe. since I want to have a thumb grip at the same time.

[@ShyYoung]

I agree 100%. I was looking for one but could not find it. If you find one let us know on this chat, I'll do the same.

[@umaraslam7731]

​@@ShyYoungI just found a few weeks back that small rig makes an a7c in/a7cr eyecup that doesn't use the hot shoe

[@JCorrea813]

Would the full cage replace the grip in terms of adding the extra real estate for your hands? If not, do you prefer the small rig or jjc?

[@ShyYoung]

Hi there, on the full cage I like adding the handle on the left side only, and holding the right side on the cameras grip. I do this when shooting video. I find it keeps my shots stable and I can change my settings quickly. For photos the smaller JJC rig and Small Rig are pretty similar. The small rig feels just a tad bit nicer and weighs less. Great if you have small lenses. The JJC is a bit heavier which helps with counter balance if you are using larger lenses, and nice to put the AirTag in there. So, I actually use all three for different purposes.

great video! any recommendations for a compact travel bag / hard case? the skimmer the better

[@ShyYoung]

Hi there, my favorite travel bag is the Think Tank Tumstyle Sling. Lots of pockets and comfortable to have on. If you are interested here is a link to some bags I have used and liked. kit.co/shysthelimit/camera-bags

everything I need in 1 spot. Thank you.

[@ShyYoung]

Thanks so much for stopping. Glad the video was useful

[@bennieferinga9609]

Great video, thanks for sharing 😊 I just bought the A7cii myself. Haven't got to try it out much yet. But that baseplate looks interesting. I got the silver a7cii, and think the Smallrig silver baseplate will look good too. I also have the peak design wrist strap, which I like very much, and the slide light which I find a little to big/cumbersome. The strap will adjust itself without opening the aluminium things, which is annoying. The thumb grip looks interesting too. What brand is that? Thanks again.

[@ShyYoung]

Thanks for stopping by, the thumb grip is by JJC

[@bennieferinga9609]

​@@ShyYoung Thanks 👍

[@gabrielvelasco5305]

Can you attach the peak design capture clip if you use the small rig base plate?

[@ShyYoung]

I just tested it right now and yes it fits

[@joeybailey9628]

I’m looking at getting the godox junior flash have you had any issues ? And recommend using for event photography ?

[@ShyYoung]

I have not had any issues. I use it for fun personal shoots. Probably would not use it for a professional event shoot

[@lecohots]

I was wondering that can I use that godox flash when installing the smallrig cage?

[@ShyYoung]

On the video I use an additional handle on the hot shoe, you can remove that, use the small rig cage and the hot shoe is open.

i want battery grip 😞

[@ShyYoung]

Battery grip would be cool

[@baabaablacksheep6693]

You use this camera for video? 🤮

[@ShyYoung]

lol

[@Natez-vw4kd]

Pro Tip: Unscrew the release button on that PD Capture Clip. Dab a spot of thread lock on the thread of the bolt and screw it back on. You're welcome.

[@ShyYoung]

Thanks!

[@Natez-vw4kd]

@@ShyYoung You're welcome. I lost mine randomly in London after less than a year of owning it. I'd already thread-locked the strap retaining screws as they kept coming undone but I had no idea that the release button would also come unscrewed. I spent 2 hours looking for it like a lemon. I couldn't find it so made one out of tiny nuts, a bolt and washers. Works ok. For the sake of a few coins, it's worth doing.
