I have set buttons for AF-on, AE-hold, AF mode, AF area, ISO, WB, drive, AE mode, FF to APS  toggle, and viewer setting (EVF or LCD).

There are 3 setting on the mode dial to save settings for the whole camera, including stills, video and…

Next I had to decide, whether to keep my Nikon lenses for a while, and use with an adapter, or make the big leap, and change to Sony glass.
