** This capture method will capture audio from the A7RIII (Built-in mic on camera, or another mic plugged into the camera)
** This capture method does not require any plugins or additional software (besides Zoom or other conferencing software)

Items needed

  • AV.io 4k

  • An HDMI Cable - Full size to HDMI-Micro (on the A7RIII)

1) Connect the AV.io 4k to your computer by plugging in the USB on the AV.io, and plugging the other end into your computer
2) Connect your HDMI cable to the AV.io
3) Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the Sony A7RIII Micro HDMI port (on the left side of the camera under the top back flap)
4) On A7RIII - Turn the wheel on top of camera to Movie Mode (film strip icon) *You may still get an image in other modes, but they won't fill up the widescreen view, and it won't pass audio
5) Turn A7RIII on if not already on
6) Open Zoom - Either in preferences > video, (or in a launched meeting under the video icon) select AV.io 4K *If using a mic connected to the camera, also select AV.io 4K Audio for the Microphone input
