I am still playing with the original Nikon Z6 shooting ProRes over HDMI on a Ninja V but I’m thinking of getting the Sony FX30 or FX3 (since Sony makes the video chip for both and I ASSUME the color science would be the same… ?) but I wonder which Sony would produce output similar to the Nikon Z6 or does a Ninja V for each make the moot???

I am so glad you call out Sony for not having added Focus Breathing Compensation to the A7S III, FX3, and A1. All of those cameras should have it by now and it is so annoying that their higher tier cameras don't have it while budget cameras do. So dumb.
@GabrielFFontes
@GabrielFFontes 2 жыл бұрын
Isn't it obvious that the A7sIII and FX3 can't have focus breathing compensation due to only having 12MP? They would have to reduce the maximum resolution to something like 3.2k or less. A1 should have it, tho.

Exactly.

Until they add false colors and/or waveform to fx3 and 30 these are not cinema cameras. One can deal with the IS vs iND filters as it's a design constraint, but only zebras as monitoring tools is really not ideal. Some would add shutter angle vs sh. speed: it's not life changing but again, would make much sense in a "cinema line" camera. Let's hope in a future firmware update.

Unfortunately, you can't shoot 35mm motion-picture format on the FX3 or A7S III in UHD. You get 1080p only; a deal-breaker for some. If those full-frame cameras had a UHD Super-35 crop mode, they'd be great. The FX30 doesn't suffer from the lack of Super-35 UHD, of course, but the rolling shutter is a deal-breaker. So... still no dice from any of these three cameras for video shooters who want proper cinema DOF and FOV.

In 6000 USD, you can get 2 of these and 1 of the a7 IV bodies. And use the lenses amongst them commonly. Thanks for the detailed review as always, Gerald :)

That's probably going to happen. I think this camera was released first because Sony didn't want to repeat what happened with the a7S III and FX3 where quite a few people said, "If I had only known about the FX3, I would have bought it instead of the a7S III." Of course, the best thing to do would be to release them both at the same time and just let people decide which one makes the most sense for them.

here is something you all should know about the Sony Fx30 i have this camera and done some tests doing video's and found out unlike other Camera's such as canon or Fuji. But just simply setting your shutter speed to 60 or 120 or 240 for the sony Fx30 WILL NOT Avoid Flickering from lights, Like Banding from lights. you MUST use the (Anti-flicker Set) from the menu to set the shutter angle to the correct number to stop the banding, I shot at 4K-30P 4K-60P and 4K-120P And had to use specific shutter angles that i found that stop the banding, here is a short list of what worked for me for preventing Banding from LED lights Systems.. Shutter Angles to prevent Light Flickering.. for 120P use shutter angle at 239.9 for 60P use shutter angle at 119.9 for 30P use shutter angle at 59.95 now how i found out the numebrs was just looking at my monitor and test recording specific numbers and that was what i found, but i probably doubled the value that i needed, which wouldn't make a difference because it's all synced in the correct cycles that the lights flicker.. But these values here below might be the correct ones to use.. 30P use shutter angle 29.97 60P use shutter angle 59.94 120P use shutter angle 119.9 Notice the shutter angles values are what the frame rates are, well 60P is not 59.94 but when recording to the Ninja i believe that's what it's writing the video's frame rate to.. So when you set your Sony to 60p the ninja is actually recording at 59.94 not 60P, i believe that the Sony does write the videos' frame rate at 60p not 59.94 when recording internally. So there is a bit of a Difference there not much but enough to notice a slight banding.. so what happen when you tested this camera Gerald? And Did you test it on the Ninja V or V+?? Any way those numbers up there worked for me incase some one needs to know.

Hi! As a little background, I'm a satisfied Lumix m4/3 user but before the anouncement of the new S5ii I thought Panasonic was going to be stuck forever with its archaic focus system so after 6 years of using my lumix m4/3 camera I decided to switch to Sony for the superb autofocus. I chose the fx30 as it was the almost perfect camera. It had all good things from the fx3 but for a much more affordable price with the aps-c sensor. So I ordered it after having watched a ton of reviews and tests, where people on youtube claimed that it was all around an almost perfect camera. I received it and checked it out, made all the settings right and did some testing to see how/if I could work with it to replace/improve on my former Lumix camera. I found some flaws however that don't seem very small, I could enumerate them but maybe it's not required for this comment. The biggest of the flaws was its REALLY BAD IBIS system :(( I'm thoroughly dissatisfied with it and I'm wondering what to do?! I can't use the camera with such an IBIS as I shoot events and my former camera was very good for handling walking and movement, unlike the sony which sensor makes erratic movements and sensor shifts that render the video footage useless (Now having watched a ton of more videos I see that all sony mirrorless cameras, even the most expensive ones, behave like this concerning their IBIS) :(( I don't want to buy and shoot with a gimbal, as it would be another complication for my setup and Catalyst products seem to be an innovative way to deal with this issue, however the shutter speed must be really high in order to overcome the motion blur during stabilization. I tried with shutter speed of 200 and the footage came out still muddy. Maybe at above 250 it starts to work. This workflow of stabilizing each clip in Catalyst however seems very inefficient and time and energy consuming. So my final question after this whole dissapointment is: IS THERE A WAY TO STABILIZE SONY FOOTAGE without so much hassle? I have informed myself about a few possible solutions, mostly adding weight to the camera, but for event videography I don't want to add a ton of weight and go around with it all day long and as a result it doesn't help that much either. So I don't see as a solution these options as gimbals, having a heavy rig or extensive stabilization and render times in post. I tried handles with moderate success but the sensor shifts still persist and make the videos unpleasent the least. WILL EVERYBODY JUST STOP PROMOTING CAMERAS THAT HASN'T TESTED personally and properly. If any of the audience knows some solution for the Sony IBIS problem, I'll be happy to hear it. If I don't find any, it would be a pity, but I'd have to sell this otherwise potentionally good all around camera. Thank you.

I really like the Fx30 but decided to buy two Sony ZV-E10’s at $700 a piece. I bought the Sigma trio which ran me $1,100 + $100 kit lens. So all in $2,600. Having two 4K cameras, sharing the three lenses along with the kit lens, with the exact same color science, has been very helpful. But someday when I’m not in the hole with my yt channel, I would definitely get the fx30.

4k is worthless compared to even good 10bit 1080p footage with 13 stops of dynamic range. Specially considering if you do internet delivery its even more worthless, 90% of all consumed content are still 1080p even after 10 years and 4k growth has stagnated.

@@SMGJohn You’re missing one valuable thing above technical specifications. KZbin’s algorithm pushes 4K videos more so than 1080p. I run my own channel and 4K definitely gets more placements. If I had it my way, I would edit at 720p since many people can’t even tell the difference between 720 and 1080 especially on a mobile phone where 80+ percent of the audience is. My biggest problem with 4K is the amount of memory and time it takes in my work flow. For now I have 1,300+ subscribers, which is a small channel, but in the bigger picture it’s growing fast since I started just 3 months ago.

@@van94weightlossjourney I have heard this argument before but I never seen real proof or anyone test this myth before, there some fringe articles that proclaim this to be true without proving it. You can upscale 1080p to 4k and people who watch it would be none the wiser, KZbin compression destroys 4k footage anyway, it looks garbage on my 4k OLED monitor, compared to 4k out of my S5 which looks crystal clear. People want to be entertained and they want their time to be respected, if you can meet those two criteria then you will see growth but 4k aint gonna do it LOL, until someone can genuinely prove that, nope. We did some experiments at the company which we boosted just a few 1 - 2 minute videos through Google Adsense, not much just 100 dollars at best for a month and those videos ended up with 1 million views each by end of the year, so if you want quick and dirty growth, Adsense is the best thing to do it.

Great review of the FX30 Gerald, does it have the same HDMI output issue that the FX3 does, where you can’t be in log mode and record both internally and to an external device?

Yes. I was told they're looking into it. Alternatively, just remapping a picture profile to use S-Log3, instead of using "log mode/cineEI" solves it for now.

Welcome to the world, Baby Undone! I hope we'll see that new APS-C sensor in future cameras from them. (An APS-C sensor in an A7 or A9 series body would be really cool, I think.)

Finally, have been waiting for years now for a proper apsc video camera. While the a6600 was ok, it never seemed a great value for the money, this one on the other hand seems to be awesome :O
