Blackout on High FRame Shooting - Sony A7RV

[KeithMark1]

I maybe being a little slow or daft but can someone point me in the idrction of how you remove the blackout when shooting in high frame on the A7RV please?

Have it set on my A9i but for some reason i cant seem to figure it out on the A7.

Thanks

You should remove your mechanical shutter 🫣😅

How stupid do I feel!! Thanks 😊

I was joking. The use of the fully electronic shutter on the A7RV is highly not recommended.

So you can’t eliminate blackout on A7Rv

That’s a shame as on the A9 I don’t get that issue..

[danardeng]

🤣 are you serious?

[KeithMark1]

See now I don’t know if you are joking or not but yep I don’t have that problem when shooting continuous on the A9

Only A9, A9m2, and A1 are blackout-free, thanks to his stacked sensor that don't need for mechanical shutter.

On all other cameras you need for at least front curtain shutter, ant it introduce a blackout.

If you use full electronic shutter on your A7Rv to get out the blackout, you'll meet a lot of issue in most common situation (banding, "jelly" effect, etc)
