Original caption

Nothing annoyed me more than this. My screen kept going black mid-shot, every time my hand got near the viewfinder. It’s the eye sensor. Anything close to the EVF makes the camera switch over and the display dies. Set Monitor/Finder Select to Monitor and it’s gone for good. Save this for your next shoot 📌 #sonyalpha #a6700 #videography #cameratips #filmmakingtips
