PM-R TV | Sony A9III: How to set AF Sensitivity Settings (AF Lvl for Crossing) @PMRTV | Uploaded 3 months ago | Updated 18 hours ago
The new Sony A9III is a big camera on the inside. Some of the wording in the menu system has also changed. Since the A6000 back in 2014, Sony has had a menu item called, "AF sensitivity." In the A9III, that menu name has changed to, "AF Lvl for Crossing." It is doing the same thing as before but the description is confusing. I wanted to make a video talking about this feature and remind everyone that the new terminology does not affect any change in how the AF works in this specific regard. 1- is still the most "locked on" setting with 5- being the most "instant." "Crossing" refers to subjects other than the one you want crossing in between you and the subject you want. Think referee here. When the zebra strikes, you can either lose the subject you wanted if your settings are to high (towards 4-5) or hold through the crossing and keep your intended subject in focus (1-2).

![Sony AX Series Camcorders Compared to Sony XDCAM [AX700, Sony HXR-MC88, Sony PXW-Z90V]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/bT5GCdLuOmI/hqdefault.jpg "Sony AX Series Camcorders Compared to Sony XDCAM [AX700, Sony HXR-MC88, Sony PXW-Z90V]
Here is a partial review of three upper end camcorders from Sony that includes the compact AX700, the production ready HXR-MC88 (Full HD only), and the higher end Sony PXW-Z90V with all the bells and whistles. Each of these has a specific use and so I delve a little bit into what that could be for various types of people from parents wanting great videos of their kids to pros wanting to freelance with their own camera. All of these cameras feature Sonys 1 sensor which is much larger, gathers more light, and allows for more out of focus backgrounds than other brands. Interested in buying one or two of these options?
