I am pretty sure I do something wrong, but I cannot figure out what it is. I do outdoor portraits with my family and friends for fun and a lot of the pictures Turn out out of focus and I don’t know why.
I am using an A7IV with a Sigmal 24-70 II 2.8. I shoot manually, with Shutter Speed about 1/250, mostly even higher. Aperture is mostly at the highest except for bigger groups, but apart from that for one or two people I use 2.8 most of the time.
Focus mode: Continous AF
Focus area: Mostly „Wide“
Face/Eye priority in AF is „On“

I press lightly on the button to focus, then fully to take the shot. Still, many of my pictures turn out out of focus and it makes me so sad and kind of irritated with myself why I cannot figure out why they do.
I never had these issues with my old Nikon DSLR, so am at a loss. What could be the problem

Hi, looking for these presets/tools, does anyone use them? Do they work well with Sony files? :)

What makes your style consistent? I am loving editing, but having a hard time getting consistent edits in different lighting situations.
What would you consider the key aspects for a certain style? What do you keep the same and what do you adapt in different lighting (except exposure an WB of course)?
There are a few things I would probably try to keep more or less the same for one shoot, e.g. clarity, grain etc. But color calibration, especially the color wheel are giving me a hard time 😅
Anyone with tips or a tutorial?
