Sony’s RX1 came with a lot of features that were both ahead of their time and surprisingly quaint by today’s standards. For example, it didn’t have a touchscreen. In fact, Sony hadn’t yet hopped on the touchscreen trend, so navigating through menus was a bit of a dance with the D-pad. Still, this hasn’t stopped me from capturing fast-moving scenes with it. And later, I’ll share a trick that makes focusing a lot more manageable than you might think.

I have owned the Sony A6700 for a while now, I pre-ordered the camera and received it long before Adobe Lightroom could edit the RAW image files. In that time I have used the camera extensively for photography and videography, it is certainly a very capable camera in the APSC hybrid camera category, but it has a few issues which can cause headaches in both photo and video use cases.
