Sony a7III Tutorial 6: Camera Settings 1 - What You Need to Know for a Fast Kickstart

With 14 pages and up to 6 features/functions per page, Camera Settings 1 is the most extensive menu item in the menu system of the a7III, a7RIII and a9. People not yet familiar with Sony's menu system easily get overwhelmed. This tutorial provides all you absolutely need to know for a fast kickstart to your Sony a7III, a7RIII and a9.
Camera Settings 1 contains most of the features and functions related to photography. However, there are also many features and functions that are important for filmmakers. While all features/functions will be explained more comprehensively and in more detail on an individual basis in future videos, this tutorial is much more than just a quick run-through. In this tutorial I will cover all features/functions in the order of appearance with you, individually explain each one of them, provide examples for situations in which they should be applied and the settings to accomplish the best results. By the end of this tutorial you will have a thorough understanding of all the features and functions the Camera Settings 1 menu item provides and you will be able to immediately put your camera to work and have fun with it.
If you are the owner of a Sony RX100 VA or RX100 VI, you will also benefit from this tutorial as most of the features and functions covered in this tutorial do also apply to these two enthusiast compact cameras.

Well done! This is my reference video for the photo settings for Sony. I watched it end to end and I refer to it constantly as I learn the complex Sony menu. A must for all Sony a7 and a9 series owners. Please make specific videos on focus settings overall, and customisation options.
