Hi all,
Just bought a Sony A7CII + Tamron 28-200 + Sony 50mm f2.5 after a long search and much vacillation. I was a Nikon D810 owner with the 24-120 kit lens, but with increasing age it got far too heavy to carry around particularly when travelling abroad. Having watched Jared Polin's set up video for this camera on YouTube, I've just spent this afternoon trying to set it up, but I can't see how to get the focussing right on it. At the moment when I try and focus on a subject I get what looks like a group of overlapping green boxes on screen and nothing that indicates where the focusing point is.
Any suggestions for good practical set up and usage tutorials?
