Sony A7R V: Intolerable High-Pitched Whine when Pixel Shift is Enabled — Update — Camera Replaced
re: Sony A7R V: Intolerable High-Pitched Whine when Pixel Shift is Enabled
An update regarding my defective Sony A7R V...
Sony pro services promptly replaced the problem camera.
No explanation was available as to cause, but apparently it was not a simple repair.
I have nothing but praise for Sony Pro services every time I use it (infrequently).

I had the same problem with my A7R5 in the wintertime with temperatures below 5° C and pixel shift enabled. I forced my camera dealer to exchange the camera because it was new then and the new one does not have this issue, at least not at the moment. My guess is it has to do with the new IS unit.
DIGLLOYD: yes, I think it is related to the image stabilization unit.

I had the same or similar problem. If I used pixel shift, left it enabled, turned off the camera and then turned it on again, I got the intolerable buzzy whine.
After updating to the just released firmwear 2.0, the problem has gone. I hope it stays gone - turnaround time at Sony is not short in Australia.
DIGLLOYD: interesting.
