Firmware 6.0 is Live | Shutter Angle is now in the FX3

[@JamesJacksonFilmz]

Have you tried out the new firmware? What are your thought?

[@victornyman268]

For FX30 shooters. An issue requiring investigation was found in the ILCE-7RM5 software released on the same day. Just to be safe, we have also temporarily suspended distribution of this software. (September 13, 2024)

@@victornyman268 A7rIV Not FX30 but apparently they took the FX3 and FX30 one down as well...?

[@AMomentInTimeProductions]

I hope you don't have any problems because when i went to the Sony Website to download the update it would not let me because it's suspended this is the message i got.. "An issue requiring investigation was found in the ILCE-7RM5 software released on the same day. Just to be safe, we have also temporarily suspended distribution of this software.

[@ni7suj]

Some people were not able to re-connect to their camera after the update on their Macs. Also I saw on the Sony forums somebody with the FX30 can no longer use the DCI 4K on his v90 cards. I think I will for sure wait a while even when the bring it back up. Might be delayed months though, who knows.

Sony has suspended the firmware on the FX3 page, so guess we'er all FCKD LMAO

[@Magic_Mike69]

Oh... Just checked the download page and they suspended it... :/

Love the video! Great job!

Have you tried any of the 95mm filters for the Mirage? I have a small travel job coming up and I was thinking of trying their full spectrum NDs and dynamic digital diffusion

[@JamesJacksonFilmz]

@@kingdom001_ I only have the ND filter that comes with the mirage kit

@@JamesJacksonFilmz fair enough, thanks for the quick reply

I can’t seem to get the promised and listed usb c tethering to iPhone for M&C app to work. I use my iPhone as an external monitor. Would be great to be able to use it with a cable instead of WiFi. You got this work?

Apakah saya dapat meminta file milikmu? Karena dari sony resmi sedang ditangguhkan

[@TBPortfolio]

how variable is it on the fx3? For example 178 possible? Had some annoying unsolvable issues with flickering LEDs in the past at 1/50. (Didn‘t flicker on many other cameras i tried. Only on the fx30 but it has vari-shutter - that solved it)

[@paperstacksfilms]

They suspended it this morning and for good reason. After using the camera a bit since I updated the first day, I noticed I can't Autofocus with my adapted glass when recording. Never had an issue before today.

[@WesNeil-34]

Don't get too excited if you record externally via HDMI. Shutter angle reverts back to speed as soon as you select "HDMI Only" Sick!

[@GurmeetSingh-fr8uo]

GH7 + XLR or FX3?

[@ty-k6708]

The GH7 is Micro 4/3 whereas the FX3 is full frame. much larger sensor. Personally, I would pick the FX3 which comes with the xlr top handle and ibis.

[@Sanatas66623]

GH7 is a clear winner here. Better camera except sensor size, but we re 2024 who cares about sensor size?

[@ty-k6708]

@@Sanatas66623 I 100% agree with you on the features. Panasonic has always had better features. But I want full frame and the reliability of Sony's autofocus. And a lot of people care about sensor size.

[@castielvargastv7931]

@@ty-k6708i bought gh7 and i am very happy. I dont care about sensor size but i do care about paying half the price while having picture quality every bit as good as fx3 and 6k, open gate and all the other features gh7 has and sony has not.

[@castielvargastv7931]

Shutter angle only makes sense if you use nd filters as well. I dont use nds for most of what i do as i dont mind higher shutter speeds. If i use shutter angle it only means that footage is badly overexposed. So I never use shutter angle.

[@ni7suj]

I don't get this at all.

[@ekphotography]

Can anyone confirm it is using true 1/48th and 1/120th as the actually shutter speed. I just got an FX30 and also wondering a couple of things. We can only use 1/48th shutter in 4DCI? is that correct? Also I do not want to fiddle with CINE EI at the moment bc I have several jobs coming up but have set my PP11 to be Slog3 and Slog3cine correct? I have seen some comments that Slog3 can only be used in CINE EI? A little confused. I would rather manually set all my ISO and Slog settings for my jobs coming up rather than fiddling with CINE EI... Thanks if anybody has any remarks for my doubts..

[@JamesJacksonFilmz]

@@ekphotography it is absolutely not true. You can use Slog3 or any Log profile outside of Cine EI. It is true however you cannot use any other profile except a Log/HDR Profile with Cine EI turned on.

[@ekphotography]

@@JamesJacksonFilmz Thanks, that is what I thought and when trying it my monitor looks like Slog 3 but I was worried bc someone had mentioned that. Thank you very much!! I figured it was not true and I do not want to figure out CINE EI at the moment, I am fine with manually changing my ISO from 800-2500 Thanks!!
