Sony A7S III sometimes won’t turn on, red light blinking in corner

Hi everyone,

I have a Sony Alpha 7S III that I mainly use for video, and recently it has started acting strangely.
Sometimes when I try to turn it on, nothing happens. The camera stays off, and there is a small red light blinking in one of the corners of the camera body.

If I remove and reinsert the battery, wait a bit, or try again a few times, eventually it turns on normally. But the issue keeps happening randomly.
I’m using original Sony batteries and the battery is charged. No recent drops or water damage.

Has anyone had this happen before? Do you know what the blinking red light means or what could be causing it?

Thankss!

Shutter Count

I have a Sony a7iii with a shutter count of 171,156. I use it just about every day for work, primarily working in event photography. I know I'm going to need to address the shutter in the near-ish future. I'm most likely going to purchase another body as this one gets higher in the shutter count.

I want to purchase a new body before the current shutter give out, however, I don't want one too early or prematurely. Any recommendations as to when I should get an additional body?

Also, any recommendations on which camera body to buy? I'm very comfortable with my a7iii, so I'm probably leaning towards the a7iv or a7v. I've also been dabbling a bit more in video if that provides context.

Help with D-191 discman

So recently I got a used but in great condition D-191 which I LOVE. However I know that it will not play mp3 files when burned to a CD. I was wondering if anyone had tips for burning cds to be used with this machine. I know .wav files are what I am looking for in terms of converters but I haven’t been able to find tips on which works best in this case! I also use a Mac (I know but it was free to me) when I burn cds and was wondering if the process will be the same? I assume it will be but you never know! Any info will help me and will be appreciated!!

Is the name YourNewStepDaddi against CoC? PS5

Genuine question, mostly a rant. I changed my name to YourNewStepDaddi about five years ago when I became a step parent. I've had no issues with this name, and have made many friends throughout the years who know me as that name. A couple days ago my name was forced to change to temp and a bunch of numbers. I looked through the CoC and genuinely don't believe that my name violated it. I called support and was essentially told to get fucked and that I could mail a letter to SIE themselves.

Do you think I'm valid in being upset that my name was changed and now I have to pay to change it to something else? Support refused to change it back, tell me what part of the name violated CoC, tell me what part of CoC I violated, or give me a free name change. Y'all have users on the platform named CoochieNibba, DrippyCoochie, NibbasGay, and more. Yet my name was too far?

I'm a little bipolar, but I'm genuinely considering switching platforms because of this. Thank you for reading my rant.

This a good buy??

Recently had opportunity to purchase a 65" X90L being clearanced out...so still brand new. It's priced at $519.47 down from $1299. From what I've read and watched seems to be a good tv. I've never owned a Sony tv before so that's why I'm here lol Good deal or ehh it's alright?
