Sony Alpha 1 Menu Settings for Sports and Action Photography by Patrick Murphy-Racey [sony a1]

I just spent a long week shooting four basketball games, baseball, softball, a tennis match and a tennis practice, a high-end lit portrait, and a K9 catching fly balls. I shot just under 15,000 images. Here is my best advice for how to set your Alpha 1 up when you take it out of the box. Enjoy!!! It's a masterpiece of a camera and one not likely to be replaced for a number of years... If I have made any mistakes, please let me know in the comments below. [HEIF 4:2:2 is the 10 bit, not the 4:2:0, my bad]. If you'd like to have me help you with setting up your camera on a one-on-one Zoom call, e-mail me at [email protected] and we can talk about my hourly rates. Last, I would encourage you to buy your alpha 1 from your local camera store but if you don't have one, you can get 5% off by ordering from www.bedfords.com and putting my code, "PMR" at checkout. Additionally, here is my Amazon affiliate link to the camera: https://amzn.to/3pFDfkV.
