Looks like it for sure. That fisherman on the beach and that heron watching his every moves are sure give-awaysDoes anyone know where this latest Mark Smith video was taken? Was it Sebastian Inlet?
Thanks

Yeah.A1's video really sucks & Sony has to get its act together for video in its flagship camera .
That's a sweeping statement & may not be correct. From what i have read A7IV (which came after A1) has a good Video AF (& most probably Sony may update A1's video capabilities through FW update )Mark Smith does shoot amazing videos with the Sony too. I don't think Sony's video vr will get ever as good as Canon or Nikon due to the flaws in the Sony's E mount design.

I really don’t do video but for stills hanholding at 600mm it seems extremely stable
Apparently, the mount opening (radius) is too small for the sensor. I am not a technical expert on this, but it apparently affects both the lenses & VR. However, Sony has managed to not let that affect the lenses as much, but the VR for video is another matter.
Remember that in stills, whatever little shake remains will be masked by the shutter speeds we use that are very short. In video, you use 1/50s to 1/250s and you want to show movement (of the subject, but the camera can’t differentiate versus shake) so what doesn’t bother anyone in the viewfinder and gets frozen in a still becomes very visible when played in 4K video. Video is far more taxing on stabilization than stills because of that.I really don’t do video but for stills hanholding at 600mm it seems extremely stable
Hope he reveals his video secrets soon.Mark Smith must have some serious talent, he shoots video with a 600mm lens.

Your dogs can use the Z105 macro lens?I tried video inside the house this AM with my dogs using the Z105 macro lens and I concur, its pretty amazing.
