### A7R4 Payload

The A7R4 Payload can record video to its internal SD card (requires UHS-II card for full quality).

{% hint style="warning" %}
Astro Max generally does not produce good video with the A7R4 Payload due to increased vibrations.

## Smooth Gimbal Control

For cinematic shots, use **Position Slow Mode** which provides adjustable rates, expo, and smoothing for precise gimbal control.
