[@jakefelzien]

As a big fat cam fan. Getting global shutter into this man’s hands with his handheld cowboy style makes for INSANE footage. Most people probably can’t tell the difference. But for this style it seriously takes it to 11/10 for me.

[@cammackey]

🥹🙏🏽 this A9III would be amazing rigged out properly!! Next I need to try that Raptor X 😈

[@orlandonoa]

The implications for outdoor strobe work is insane. I remember a time in the late 90's to early 00's when the look in fashion was a heavy strobe overriding daylight by about 2+ stops. The way we achieved it was shooting RZ's (leaf shutter) with a 6400w generator powering 2x 2400ws Profoto packs to a bi-tube head in an octabank. The fact you can do this with a battery powered 400ws strobe is surreal ! Yes truly a game changer (and I don't throw that term around lightly). I'm pretty sure CanNikkon engineers are working on this right now.

[@cammackey]

Yeah I had to cut a lot out cause it was getting long winded haha. But touched on leaf shutters and exposing methods 😂.

[@jammusique]

Love all the in-depth tech info. And your footage looks magical. You’ve got the touch!

[@pdcorlis]

Great crash course in mixing flash and daylight! Your global shutter info is super helpful too. But most of all - your “cowboy culture” short is so so sweet! So so cinematic 👏🏻

[@tobiasfalk9112]

Looking back at all your amazing videos from 2024, it's hard to pick favourites - but - the anamorphic shots on the A9III are just so incredibly gorgeous. Pure cinema. IMHO, it shares a top spot with your Area 51 journey. Thank you for your hard work! Happy new year!

[@cammackey]

Man that’s crazy to hear!!! This was such a fun video to make too!!

[@RandumbTech]

Best real world review of this camera yet. Man, your work is so freakin’ inspiring.

[@DMProductions]

You killing it with these videos Cam, highly inspiring

[@StephanWiesner]

You actually DO loose power with the A9 too. Starting at about 1/4000 depending on the flash and the power setting of the flash. Which makes sense, as the flash duration becomes longer than the shutter speed. That is easy to verify and I have made a video demonstrating it.

[@cammackey]

I was wondering if that would be a limitation. We’re now going to need new flash technology that can output consistent flash ratings at flash speeds…

[@JoshGloverMedia]

I remember shooting off-camera flash with my Nikon d70 nearly 20 years ago and being able to have a shutter speed as fast as the flash’s duration. Glad to see technology is catching up.

[@Thaddeuspryor]

Love how Cam pushes all tools and shares such unbiased feedback. You could give him a banana and I'm sure he would get something out of it beautiful but all jokes aside I love how he is a fielded creative and just loves a great tool. Keep push Cam!

[@cammackey]

Hahahaha 🍌 shoots 24k

[@Just-Yu23]

Thank you for inspiring me through your KZbin channel focused on colors. As someone who believes that well-executed color grading can significantly elevate a video's quality alongside strong composition, storyline, and audio. I spend additional time and attention towards color grading to ensure that clients receive a final product that leaves them amazed. Being an owner of Sony's FX3 camera, I can't wait for the upcoming shutter angle firmware update in September. Although I currently don't require a global shutter feature, I would like to see an improved display for the FX3 Mark II model. In fact, I would even be willing to pay extra to upgrade and interchange the same screen from my FX30 model. Using the camera without an external monitor or when it's mounted on a gimbal often results in eye strain and discomfort for me. If you are visiting Chicago in the future and need someone for a B-cam, please let me know, I would love to help you out and gain some experience at the same time.

[@BrionneOlsen]

Much respect for your craft bro. I’ve been thoroughly entertained and educated at the same time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insights with us.

[@AhrenSteisBCP]

Glad you gave your thoughts on this camera. I’ve been so caught up in the dynamic range that I’ve hesitated pulling the trigger on this. I want a good hybrid and so far this checks most of the boxes. Thanks for the input Cam.

[@QuantzPhoto]

I just got mine yesterday and I can’t wait to see how it performs on my sports based studio sets. Now I just need some strobes that can keep up! Great video!

[@henlolneh]

Wow. Second time in my life I activate all notifications. Literally subscribed after a minute in the video. Great art!

[@tobiasfalk9112]

The A9III shots are absolutely stunning. Looks very close to the Venice 2. The grade and LUTs makes me think of 'Badlands', Mallicks first movie.

[@stillsandvideo]

Proof is in the images and footage and your imaging in this video is top notch as always. Thanks, great topic and very well done. Most importantly, love your work, after all, that's what it is all about. Thanks.

[@thomasfransson]

No one could do this camera more justice. There's definitely a look that comes with a global shutter. Especially if you’re used to slower readout sensors.

[@quite1enough]

yeah, I'll wait for discounts because it's now wort of two years of income of my family of three 🥺 really excited about this camera tho, and I really hope that Sony finally addressed their sensor dust issues

[@ProFilmmakers]

Another dope episode. Love the way you expained the benefits of having a global shutter when it comes to flash photography. Game changer it is - no doubt about it.

[@kodakkevin]

Phenomenal video. I did not understand global shutter (particularly in a photographic context) and now I do! Top notch stuff as always cam

[@parmanduke]

Cowboy can make any camera look fantastic. Great work as always!!

[@PhillipRPeck]

Do you think the IBIS adds to the jittery motion because the sensor isn't locked in place? If so, it will be awesome if/when Sony puts this sensor into a new FX camera that has a fixed sensor/no IBIS. Awesome video!

[@cammackey]

I’ve always believed in that theory. I personally prefer locked sensors. Hopefully someday they figure out a way to truly lock it in place.. if our theory is true that is

[@swiggit]

@@cammackeydoes the sensor not move if steadyshot is turned off?

[@KaanSenel]

Nice vid once again man, loved the explanation on flash photography!

[@TubaSolotheHiker]

I will give Sony props on one aspect. The flash sync speed issue. Not having to put your flashes in HSS is in fact a game changer. Can't wait till Canon implements a similar global shutter system.

[@leewinter28]

Just subbed to your channel after watching a video on your insanely creative usage of lighting and gear!

[@JasonMorrisphotocinema]

Warn me when you’re posting videos so I don’t post my mediocre content 😂😂 love this vid. A9III sensor is what Sony have been needing to keep pushing limits

[@vidthreenorth4007]

Where Sony is at right now is that even if you cannot cover all your needs with one camera, you can probably get another body that covers what you are missing. Personally, I have a foot in 2 camps for video with Sony and Panasonic equipment. I prefer to cover what I can with Panasonic, but if I need to, I can cover with Sony, though I might need to go to rentals at the extreme case.

[@elarrioguajardo208]

Let's go! Time for that magic you do!

[@vincevinnyp9224]

The limit all of sudden is flash duration. It's game changing but 1/1000 is still faster than most strobes can manage on high power, until they catch up. So more power than HSS isn't a reality at higher shutter speeds. The Sony sensor having a higher base ISO is going to push us into these shutter speeds more often.

[@lonniesfilmmaking333]

Cheers so much for all your technical information plus what you said about it's the story that counts is so true too 😊❤

[@CrnaInBela]

Love your videos, congrats on 60k.

[@Slipsch]

I'm excited for the A1 Mark II if it has a global shutter, or ZV-E1 Mark II with everything in this camera but with a metal body so it doesn't overheat that quickly.

[@cammackey]

That’ll be insane if it’s like a 40mp global shutter

[@natesv650]

Love ,love, love the videos. So technical!

[@kinoromantic]

Global shutter is overrated when you're nearing Alexa's numbers (7.2ms or thereabouts) of rolling shutter performance, you have to be into whipping your camera on a carousel for that to be a determining factor in buying a camera

[@cammackey]

Agreed. As I said I don’t think most people even need global shutter. The Fx3 does an amazing job as well. BUT it does come in handy at times. I see a future where all shutters are just global…

[@MrCyberSlacker]

Wow! This video is amazing. Cleared up a bunch of questions I had.

[@Superjeanmarc]

You’re the best, man. So, just to clarify, when it comes to video, global shutter doesn’t make an ND useless, right? It only solves the rolling shutter issue but you still need ND if you want wide aperture in bright light .. yeah?

[@hxllywxxd22]

thanks for the tips bro, keep up the top notch work!!

[@kennethnielsen3864]

I don't need global shutter, but I love to hear you talk about it. Thanks for sharing.

[@colemowery]

the more and more I watch videos about the komodo and a9iii, I realize that the entire film industry slept on the sony f55

[@MRBuDWiZe]

only thing that stopped me buying this camera was because the sport i shoot i have to crop quite a bit on photos, portraits and landscapes imho 24 is more than enough, or i just miss a lot as and get only the closer shots as oval i work on is 150m long and the 200-600mm only goes so far. hopefully a1II will be 50mp global shutter in a year or so

[@cammackey]

He’s joking chill

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

@@cammackey haha - I might not actually get the new one for once either - I don't really do enough flash or sports to justify it. Still...

[@Oddernod]

Anyone even remotely interested in shooting video with VFX in mind is going to love having a lower cost entry point into shooting with global shutter😍

[@pinkfatcap]

People who claim this camera is bad, spend more time making videos and posts than taking photos at all, and they have not even used this camera which was not even designed for them.

[@bene123photographer]

Very good video you know your shit . I am a A9 user . You helped to spell it out if I should get this camera . I probably not the target audience . More budget for other toys

[@automotorsports]

I'm so surprised Sony doesn't advertise this more as a cinema camera as its easily by far the best cinema camera in it's price range due to global shutter, all it needs is a bit of anamorphic support via firmware and you get a Red camera that's far more versatile

[@TheBenjaminBanks]

I dont know if its the camera or KZbin ut I noticed a lot of banding in the sky other than that it looks great!

[@cammackey]

I can assure ya there was no banding on the actual footage

[@SuperFilmregisseur]

I just wish you showed a lot more handheld shots with that density so we could get lost in the cinematic effect of the global shutter

[@cammackey]

Well it was to kind of prove a point haha

[@SuperFilmregisseur]

@@cammackey wait what? Lol

[@NathanPhillipsPhoto]

You always have great content! Me personally though… I don’t think the dynamic range trade off is worth it. I would be using a ND anyways for video, so why not just use it for photo too, or less speed is needed. Only downfall would be power and battery for HSS mode or the shutter speed not being fast enough when full power is needed on the flash. I would be more impressed with internal ND on these small bodies. Canon seems to have a patent filed on this. See what happens I guess. 🤷‍♂️

[@Addrian.]

Great video as always, i do love my FX3 as well. Hows the a7CII pedform compared to the FX3 Cam? Curious to see what camera to expect next from Sony.

[@cammackey]

The reason I dig the A7CII specifically is the size, MP count for photos, and the downsamples 7K. Mainly because for KZbin stuff I like to do 1.5X and 2x crops and the FX3 can look a little soft compared to the downsamples 7K. In reality tho my A7RV is a better camera over all, I just really like the form factor of the A7CII haha

[@Addrian.]

@@cammackey yeah 100% agree size is such an awesome factor of that camera. I've got a7IV tho it is definitely bulkier than the A7CII. Curious to see what curious to see what comes out for the next line of Sony cameras. As always looking forward to your next video! Appreciate ya Cam!

No anamorphic for the talking head shots? I’m thinking of picking on a cheap one from Sirui for vlogs 😂

[@nickwilliams7867]

I Just got an A1, the advantage of the 50mp for me outweighs the rare occasion shooting flash at 1/5000. I may change my mind and pick one up but as yet I have not seen any flash photos taken with the A9III that make me go wow, I need one. Your video would have been better if you showed some great flash photos instead of just doing test shots. You tube is full of test shots but little real samples.

[@cammackey]

Um, the shots in the intro were all with flash… the A9 isn’t going to make flash photography look any better….. you can get the same results with a canon T2i.. the point is it makes it EASIER to accomplish that look.

[@nickwilliams7867]

@@cammackey thats my point, I would love to see samples in situations thats not possible with the A1/A9. Bright sun when you may be able to get away with a AD200 with the A9III instead of a AD600 with a A9 A1

[@cammackey]

You’re missing the point brother……

[@yohannsphotographyvideogra9542]

I am returning mine after 5 days of use ! this camera is definitely not for flash photography/ studio ! first of all shutter speed goes at max at 16000 shutter speed at multiple mode shoot only. 80000 shutter speed is only in single mode shoot! color shits are all along those variable speeds you need to sync flash manually in order to shoot with variable shutter speed,and it's time consuming, and i suspect that its still not accurate and it might be the reason for power color shits strength light intensity inaccuracy .Another issue is the noise and Aperture change at values like f8 noise is so big and noticeable that it makes picture not usable bottom line its a real downer on photography side but videography is definitely a big high

[@watarchives]

No recording limit? No heating issue?

[@delosreyesgino]

My favorite configuration! HSS Hum Single Single.

[@waynedennyphoto]

Does global shutter solve LED pulsing/lines in video footage? I was shooting some high school softball last night, and the stadium LED lights were pretty evident on a Canon R5.

[@cammackey]

I’m not sure on that one 100%. I think that’s more of a shutter sync issues with the frequency of the lights

Isn't that working as the electrical shutter on a7iv?

If you want a bunch of warped images, yes I believe so. Electronic shutter read from top to bottom.. it’s not global. It’s merely just voiding the shutter. GLOBAL SHUTTER takes a picture all at once.
