Sony A7IV Event Indoor Artificial Settings
The Key Setting
The A7IV's AF Subject Shift Sensitivity is critical for events. Set it to 1 (Locked On) for tracking a specific subject through a crowd — the camera will resist jumping to other faces. Set it to 5 (Responsive) for quickly switching between different subjects as the scene changes. Assign "Subject Shift Sensitivity" to a custom button or the Fn menu so you can toggle between these two modes instantly as the situation demands. Enable "Silent Shooting" for ceremonies; the A7IV's electronic shutter is fast enough for most event work without rolling shutter distortion.
