Trawler in the Estuary

Hi
I have the A7Riv with the 200/600 and i am having focusing issues with it.
EG: If I focus on a perched bird 20ft away. The focus points lock on the bird, if I move they remain locked.
However the bird can not be seen in the viewfinder. It is not focusing on the background and the front if the bird is clear.
If I turn on and off 80% of the time it will refocus.If I turn off and leave off for a couple of seconds it always refocuses.
All my other lens work perfect and the the 200-600 works great on the A7iii.

Any thoughts?

Stunning shot

Thank you, the shot didnt come without issues unfortunately. Client wasnt happy with the cooler lights, the chandeliers are all LED's and the spots above the bar were LED's also. Had to explain the reason it looked cool er and then go in and re-edit all 20 images.

Here is the newer version client approved.

I am sure that you have your own routine, but one thing I like to do is send over 2 or 3 edits to the client for review prior to doing the whole set. I started doing this after editing a set a couple years ago, and the client didn't like the edit, and all 50+ images had to be redone since they were all done with the same concept and style so that they were cohesive. I lost my shirt on that project and now go through a review phase on a couple to avoid that problem.

This may have been good for this, but as it was a white balance issue not an editing style issue i dont know if it would have worked. This image took around 30 minutes to edit. It was a WB misunderstanding unfortunately. Good thing is they have now taken out all the LED bulbs.

Here is another image from Park Downtown Las Vegas. I seriously love this camera coming from the Canon 5D MKIV
