Sony A7R3 + A73 + A9 must have accessories

[@IlluminatusNZ]

Sweet vid as usual Chris! The PeakDesign quick clips are awesome if you want to go between neck strap and their awesome wrist/hand strap too!

[@mouahmong]

I would recommend the Sony SF-G UHS ii cards too. They are pricier but they have a read/write at 300/299mbps.

[@Malikofff]

I have SanDisk Extreme Pro with 300Mb/S and it is awesome :)

[@nathanwabre]

I used both. I 6 years shooting weddings, never ever had a single issue with a SanDisk SD card! Cannot day the same about Sony’s but the are quite good too. Not have to mention to run away form Lexar’s...

[@DutchAussieProductions]

Thanks Chris. I am about to buy a Sony A7III. This video was very detailed and great to watch. Thanks for the links.

[@shadda]

Agreed on sandisk SD cards. I just lost a lexar 256gb UHS-II the other day. just stopped working one day.

[@MaximKachurovskiy]

Big thumbs up for the backup schedule. Cloud backup is actually an expensive and unreliable option once you cut past the marketing. P.S.: Haven't heard about friends burning people's houses and driving away in their cars yet so all safe there!

Hello Chris, excellent video. You help us a lot. Just asking about the rigs you are showing at the beggining of the video, where we can found them. Thank you.

[@HighTowerNL]

I would recommend the Sony SD card with 300MB/s read and 299MB/s write speeds. I got the 128GB version so I never need another SD card. But you can go with whatever size you want. It's 3 times faster than the card you recommend. As for the grip i'm using a Jupio battery grip that looks just like the Sony grip, only much much cheaper and came with a remote control. Chilipower batteries, really cheap and almost as much capacity as the original batteries. And if you really want to save money buy your filters on Aliexpress, they're the same as the filters being sold in stores. I bought some really amazing CP filters for €30 each that would cost me €100-150 in the stores, same brand etc.

[@KrisRobinson]

Hanging out for the Sigma 35 Art as well!! Just saw on the B&H website that they're supposed to be getting theirs on the 7th, which hopefully that mean we should see them here in NZ shortly. I'm shooting with a 85mm art at the moment and if the 35mm is even close it'll be a great lens.

[@njrmax72]

Purchased the sigma 35mm 1.4 art native Sony version and very happy with it! Still as impressive as I remember on DSLr and better yet, no more back focus issues with mirrorless! Love this lense

[@PhotoTrekr]

I thought the Smallrig L-plate would be a good solution. But, I sent it back because it didn't solve the problem of where to put your little finger and it was too big to fit comfortably in my RRS LR. Then I thought the RRS L-plate would be the solution. It solves the problem of where to put your little finger and fits the RRS clamp. But, I don't really like that you have to remove the battery door and I don't think there is anywhere for the Peak Design attachments. I'm currently using a small RRS universal plate until I find something that works better. I used a battery grip with my A7rii, since the smaller batteries ran out so fast. But, with the A7riii larger batteries, I no longer need a battery grip.

[@TheLooNatykkyd]

Love your stuff Chris! From a fellow Kiwi, keep doing your thing mate! 🙌🏻

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Thanks bro!

[@TheLooNatykkyd]

Just went into Auckland Camera and they were great. I told them I found them from your videos. Just picked up the wasabi battery pack

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Good guys :)

[@johnvandenbroek9753]

Very informative Chris .... thanks for a great video.

[@jonatbass1111]

Hi chris! Question. Do you use a speedlight on a wedding shoot? And if you use the silent shutter? If yes, how do you deal for a possible banding? Thank you

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Hey mate. I’ll use flash on the dance floor. And sometimes receptions. That’s about it, hardly ever use silent shutter. Used to use it all the time when I had the A9 cause you don’t need to worry about anything.

[@MannyG32968]

Excellent video and information!

[@CVNTGETENOUGH]

I am Sooo glad I came across your channel, very useful content!!!

[@MachuPichuu]

Have you checked out the spider grip and spider lite holster? I had the spider grip pro on my Nikon and loved it, but not sure how it will work on the Sony a73

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Yeah I tried it years ago with my Nikon’s. Really didn’t like it personally.

[@MachuPichuu]

Chris Turner oh strange. Now that I’m used to it I don’t feel like I could live without it. Really like what they did with the spider light holster too with built in Arca Swiss mount. On the downside it does bulk up your camera a decent amount.

[@jadonsand690]

Question, do you ever run into issues with your LaCie connecting to your Macs with updated OS?

[@Usualeclectic]

Cheers mate! I have big hands and with all my expensive gear sometimes my clients catch me sticking my pinky finger out as if I’m some rich pretentious doctor evil character...my batteries never run out but that grip will give you instant non-pretentiousness. Lol

[@ericles1976]

Chris! Do you do photography and film by yourself? Or do you have another team member with you, I ask because I do photography alone but customers keep asking me for video .

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Yep me and my second shooter both do photo and video at the same time

[@masoncheung715]

thank you for sharing, especially the camera strip

[@GeorgeHuss]

Can you tell me what is the make/model of the USB shutter release mentioned at 6:20 . I cannot make it out. Thanks ! Great work

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Oh I don’t even know. It’s literally like a $20 eBay special.

[@thomaslavery5168]

Great video ,very well explained .

[@henningskj]

Great video. Subbed! :D (For the future, try to face your lav-mic upwards; I would much rather be able to hear your voice crystal clear, than the "crunching"-noises from the grips/cameras while you are holding them.)

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Good feedback. Thanks

[@MrBokkyboy]

Yo Chris a quick question. Did you upgrade your firmware on the sony. If so can you still use the wasabi batteries without getting a warning on your camera?

[@RON_ZHOU]

Great Video! Keep it up. From Auckland

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Cheers Ronnie!

[@NickImberyPhotography]

Do you use the 64gb 90 write speed SD cards with your A7RIII? These are what I have been using with my A6000 but I was recommended upgrading to a faster write speed card something like 300

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Yeah I just use the Sandisk Extreme Pro 95mb write and they are fine. I do have some of the Sony 300mb SD cards and I don’t notice a huge difference

[@yogisgl]

Sir please provide with peak design clip link that you mentioned.

[@xKouda]

Which Lens did you have on your sony? Not the batis 25 /f2 the other one!

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Sigma 50mm 1.4

[@JoeyD4rb]

I prefer the small rig over the RRS only because you loose some of the waterproofing when you move the batter door to the bracket.

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Valid point for sure

[@tedmanasa907]

The Sonys have weather sealing? My a9 doesn’t (unfortunately).

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Yes it does. You A9 is fully sealed

[@tedmanasa907]

@Chris do you mean it has rubber gaskets? I don’t find any on the camera.

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

I mean it’s fully sealed, Sony say it is, both me and my second shooter have had our A9’s completely soaked many times, like not just rain, splashed from swimming pools, all sorts. Never had an issue. I believe the battery door is the only place that is questionable.

[@CVNTGETENOUGH]

Will the Really Right Things bracket be able to be used with Peak Designs Capture clip?

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

No I don't believe so

[@NoTicket]

The Really Right Stuff bracket has an extra tripod plate thread, so you can screw in the Peak Design arca swiss plate on to it. This allows you to use the Peak Design Capture Clip. That's what I do, I then take it off when I don't plan to use it. The hex key that you use for the RRS plate is the same width as the Peak Design plate, so you'll have one with you at all times (it magnetizes to the plate). That said, yesterday I was shooting a friends baby shower and I forgot the PD plate at home and so I couldn't use my capture clip. Kind of annoying.

[@CVNTGETENOUGH]

@@NoTicket Wow that is so great to know, thank you so much, I'm definitely buying it now!

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

True good point Jesse!

[@aghahanta108]

Hey Chris, Where can I purchase the really right stuff bracket? (I'm in Auckland)

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

Hey mate I think you have to buy online. I got mine second hand

[@marksummers5504]

The off brand Chinese batteries will cause an alarm in camera warning they may damage your ($3K) Sony body. You can ignore it but it will return over and over. I used these Wasabi batteries years ago on my old a7 and had no issues aside from a very short life. Personally I wouldn’t gamble on damaging my a7riii with a $10-20 battery. The Sony battery lasts much longer and you know it won’t cause any issues. However, to each his own.

[@NTSMusicAU]

Does that flash work with the a73 if so what flash is it

Why don't mirrorless cameras not just use usb 3.1 Gen2 flash drives -_- you'd get like 500 mbs per second and it would be cheaper.

They do. Mine is USBC (A7R3)
