Hi,
I'm new to Sony, am setting up my new A7rii, and would be very grateful for any help with these two problems:
-I've turned off AF Illuminator, but have noticed when using an IR remote, the AF assist lamp flashes before taking a shot. This is distracting: Is there a way to turn off the Illuminator so it never flashes when using an IR remote? (I'm hoping the answer isn't 'electrical tape'!)
-The IR remote & camera function properly when I'm standing at a distance, BUT when trying to use the IR remote, and have my eye up to the viewfinder, the camera focuses but doesn't make an exposure. Does an IR remote not work when the viewfinder is engaged or is there a setting I'm missing?
Thank you!
