For my taste best FX6 setup for run and gun just... FX6 from the box. You need just take it from the package and it get ready. No need for any accessories, cages, batteries or monitor. Just camera and shotgun mic. I rigged mine only for staged sets, when I use Angineux PL lenses, external monitor, transmitters, time code, fiz motors, V-mount etc. For everything else just pure lightweight FX6 with autofocus Sony 24-105 or Leica M lenses if I need more pleasant images.

[@speliotis]

would love to see more of. the Fx6. maybe show some footage from it....

[@JustinPorterMedia]

There’s always something so satisfying about watching someone rig their camera haha. Awesome video man 🙌🏾 Audio with the rode lavalier 2 is sweet 🔥🔥

[@ajfesta]

I totally agree bro! I watch them all the time! Happy to know the audio sounded good! Any ideas for future vids?

[@JustinPorterMedia]

@@ajfesta well like I said for months, do some behind the scenes lol. Even go do a local business shoot and film it. Would be dope to see how you direct and build a set?

[@ajfesta]

@@JustinPorterMedia great point! I most definitely want to be able to incorporate that into the channel in the near future!!

[@emmanuelOfilms]

The information on rigging the Fx6 for handheld was great. It will be nice to have links for all the setup. I love the Fx6

[@ajfesta]

If there is anything that you need a link for just let me know!

[@emmanuelOfilms]

@@ajfesta I’ll need the monitor clamp

[@kennethgarcia25]

really like your patient step-by-step instructions for your lean build! You might speed up the space in between critical areas. Also it would be helpful if you had listed the parts and links for purchasing them. That way you might have helped yourself to a bit of kickback and it would make it easier to find the exact cable lengths, etc.... Great job!

[@ajfesta]

Hey! Thanks for the feedback! If you need links to anything at all I can provide those for you! Just let me know for which items!

[@pinkbella69]

Awesome build!

[@wearetrackclub]

Sick setup! Love how you put this video together as well 🔥

[@ajfesta]

Thanks so much!

[@ajfesta]

Would you guys be interested in sponsoring the channel at all?

[@MoonlanderMedia]

Great vid. Just got an FX6 the other day. Definitely copying your setup. Thanks for the inspo.

[@ajfesta]

Awesome!! Glad I could help!!

[@HeetNandu]

Good stuff! I loved your 1st AC kit video too!

[@ajfesta]

Glad you liked it!

[@miliangieb.b4642]

Awesome vid babe!

[@ajfesta]

Thanks bebe:)

[@mediamaker6828]

Curious what you may use the rails for in that setup since they weren’t used in this build. They’re there but serve no purpose. You just having it prepped for a follow focus or a rail-mount matte box? Just curious. Love the setup. Always good to have a good “run and gun”.

[@ajfesta]

That’s exactly why! In preparation for a mattebox and follow focus!

[@forthegloryproductions]

Awesome setup! The FX6 has my heart ❤

[@ajfesta]

Thanks homie! It’s fire!

[@inter-linked]

What is the advantage of this FX6 rig over a canon XF605 for R&G work?

[@ajfesta]

I personally haven’t ever used the xf605 but after looking at specs, the fx6 would be better for the reasons of the variable nd filter over specified stops nd on the xf605, ProRes raw external recording, 4k all the way up to 120 frames per second, interchangeable lenses which would allow for lenses with wider apertures for low light, dual base iso at 12,800 for low light shooting, etc. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@EscapeThe9]

You went to full sail 😜

[@calebbrunkow]

Killer video dude!! Loved it

[@ajfesta]

I appreciate you brother! Can't wait to make more!

[@crystianangelvalentin2768]

hello friend I live in Brazil in the capital of Amazonas in Manaus I wanted to buy this camera sony fx6 more do not find here in Manaus because we had the company Sony Amazon more she went away from Brazil and now I do not find this camera I wanted to know where to find this camera and how much does the value of this camera cost, I don't speak English I'm using Google translate to send this message to you I really like your videos even though I know I don't understand a word I set up to translate the subtitle I count on your help friend.

[@TheAugusts]

Need this

[@thegospelnow3]

Great video AJ I look forward to working with you my brother bless you

[@JohnLuna]

how's the autofocus on the 24-70 I? don't know if I should get the II

[@ajfesta]

This version one still holds up incredibly! I haven’t done too much testing with the version two yet but that one really nice too!

[@joenicklo]

Just needs a matte box 👌

[@1stresponsevideo]

What do you plan on using those rails for or are they simply for stablizing the base?

[@ajfesta]

They are their for times when needing to add a follow focus, teleprompter, matte box, or lens support!

[@TSpenceFilms]

Quick question here, I’m shooting with my ninja V+ and wanted to record at 400EI using cine EI. My ninja V+ shows only the 800 EI value but my fx6 monitor shows the 400… do you know how I could get the Ninja V+ to show the 400EI value so I can see more closely how my footage will look in post?

[@locksleylennoxvfx]

Nice rig bruv.

[@ajfesta]

Appreciate you brother!

[@gen0987]

great film emulation

[@aceonweb]

Nice kit. Just need audio?

[@Cyrpacus]

Do you use the 70mm a lot shooting from hand? Im really missing the Image Stabelisation for this, and I find catalyst to time consuming as I have to analyse every clip induvidually? Hows your experience with this?

[@ajfesta]

Definitely usable especially if you are shooting higher frame rates!!

[@ajfesta]

Also use a easyrig often!

[@pbbella]

Great job

[@DenmasUlin]

Can you rotate the right handle?

[@ajfesta]

Yes you can!!

[@ItsMeSoto]

nice work bro, really loving how these videos are coming out 🔥

[@ajfesta]

Thank you my man! Anything you want to see on the channel for the future?

[@SuperHappyGiantRobot]

Great Video! I subbed! I am looking to get an fx6 or c70!

[@impact20twenty]

Great video but you forgot the moneymaker... Aka mattebox 😅

[@ajfesta]

Yes haha

[@jalexanderevans]

Npf to v mount or bou to v mount?

[@ajfesta]

It’s the Tilta v mount adapter for the fx6!

[@Inatwiztvisuals]

i got a sigma 24-105mm 1.4 dg art len trying to see what adapter to ues trying to get this lens to fit my sony a6100.

[@ajfesta]

What’s the lens mount for that lens?

[@ajfesta]

Whatever that lens mount is, you’ll want to find an adapter that goes from that to Sony e mount

[@spencekelly1015]

Is the image on the camera monitor not upside down with this set up?

[@spencekelly1015]

Never mind, it's just a button you switch on the monitor to rotate the image.

[@LORDVAPORMAX]

nice work

[@ajfesta]

Thanks!

[@kevinfigueroa9745]

Why did you add rods if you’re not gonna use them?

[@ajfesta]

Added them because it’s pretty typical that I’ll switch over to cine primes and from there I add a follow focus for a first AC and also to be able to add a mattebox!

Is the fx6 really that much better than the fx3

[@mediamaker6828]

I’ve had my FX6 for a bit over a month now and there is plenty that it does that the FX3 doesn’t. Both are great cameras but, for the work I do, I’ll go to my FX6 every time
