I recently upgraded to the FX6 from the FX3, and even tho the image quality is very similar, to me the user experience of using a more robust cinema cam system is worth it for me. Every time I shoot with it I'm geeking out inside lol. And like you said, client perception is real. Everyone just looks at the camera and is like "wow". That to me alone is worth it.

[@KofiYeboah]

Honestly that’s worth the extra $2k 😅😅

[@TheElliotEquation]

I used to think that was so stupid but after getting a red camera the clients perception and willingness to pay completely changed without even seeing the footage. Ever since I've been focused on the clients experience and perception, I mean we are camera guys after all, it's all about optics.

[@techutopiareviews]

nice topic, but did I miss u saying 5axis ois is missing with fx6? this is a huge deal for so many videographers, stabilization.

[@Omgiamsotriggered]

Really simple difference between the two. Similiar features with a similiar image quality on the note that FX6 has more advanced features and gimmicks. FX6 more walks into the PRO PRO territory of a cinema camera, while FX3 is and can be considered PRO while still having some "amatuer" useful stuff like decent photo work. FX6 is way more robust and therefore can be easier to use, which in turns makes it "feel" like a real cinema shooting beast. FX3 is quite more nimble and light and good for hand or gimbal use, which then again has its own perks and advantages. Both cameras are excellent but have their own uses. Overall FX6 is a bigger brother and therefore without much surprise is a better camera, but due to its size its not applicable to use everywhere, where as fx3 in a small rig setup will perform and make those quality shots that make a huge difference in a project. The best way I always like to explain is FX6 is an A cam, while FX3 is B cam for supportive shots and work. One must also considered the type of work that youre gonna be included in, which densley impacts the type of camera u need. If youre doing youtube,weddings,vlogs,instagram and just want beautiful shots, even the APS-C FX30 is an excellent choice on a budget (if you dont plan on doing alot of low light shootings). FX3 is a perfect choice and golden middle ground for many. FX6 as a last choice is a full on fledged cinema camera that u dont really need if youre not gonna be doing cinema grade stuff. (youre not realistically bringing such a big camera for weddings okay, unless u hate your life :P). One might even consider A7SIII for more hybrid work.

[@theunkownmr.562]

FX6 has true 4k, unlike the FX3 that has 2.7k

With doc work I shoot a lot with the 10 bit long gop codec on the fx3. Such a helpful space saver while keeping enough color info. Pretty frustrating the fx6 doesn’t have it

[@Justin_Allen]

Great video showcasing the differences. FYI at 9:54 right at the cut your audio went out of sync. It came back at 10:25. I have the FX3 and really wanted to get the FX6 however I had to switch out to a Red camera this week all because the only Sony camera with genlock is the FX9 (4 years old) and the Sony Venice ($40,000 more than I can afford to spend). Hopefully Sony announces a new professional camera soon.

Hello, thank you for your video. I would appreciate hearing your recommendation. I'm considering upgrading from my Sony a6400 to a full-frame camera, and I'm facing a dilemma: whether to spend and get the FX3 or save money and go for the ZV-E1, getting pretty much the same image but with the remaining funds invested in more lenses, etc. I shoot a variety of content, from events to weddings, so my direction is quite diverse.

[@PrestonLohr]

great video! I actually have an fx6 coming next month. I hate that the fx6 doesn't have ibis or sound at 120fps. Might go trade it in at the camera store for an fx3 when I get it lol.

[@KofiYeboah]

It’s kinda sad, but still a SOLID camers

[@JoeVazquezProductorMusical]

Hi buddy It's obvious that with the fx6 you're going to get a more crunchy image and better sharp images because fx6 brings internal ND filter without compromise the colors in film, otherwise with the fx3 when you put a External ND front in lens you have to be careful down the steps, anyway I think you know that already, the only 2 External ND I trust Polar Pro Peter McKinnon and Nisi filters, those are good but for some reason make a lil bit red skin tones and green color lil bit exaggerated making banding in some cases, so I prefer the Sony original internal ND filters and the best part of the FX6 vs FX3 with FX6 you can setup RAW-XAVC-I thru HDMI or SDI in the menu, the difference is so huge. Good video. Have a good one. 👍 Reply

[@KofiYeboah]

Even w/o NDs it’s still kinda different as well and my takes kinda the same 🙏🏾 I do hear great things about the nisi filters though 😁

[@Alanwking]

Thanks for your breakdown of what Cinema is and for explaining how we get so caught up in our interpretations of labels: "Cinema," "epic," etc. I use the FX30 and I consider it a Cinema camera. It's video first, with some photography features.

I'm sure you heard that the DP for "Dune" shot his latest film, "The Creator", with the FX3. I think that's a huge promotion for the FX3. It definitely keeps the FX3 on my radar.

@@KofiYeboah we’re not sure yet.

Okay, so you said you prefer the FX6 for handheld, and yet, the FX3 has IBIS. Can you make a video on that? Because I will likely be doing a lot of handheld stuff and that is an interesting point you made. Additionally, would you say that an FX6, despite being more "professional", is technically a better "beginner" camera over the FX3 because of the conveniences? I've been considering jumping into the deep end with an FX6 as a beginner just to do it, but if the FX6 may be easier, it removes that difficult stigma.

[@KofiYeboah]

Honestly, i don’t like IBIS 😅 the lil wobbles make me sad and idk why it’s not that bad 😅 And like beginner is a hard one to qualify, usually a beginner you want to remove as many obstacles as possible, so the fx6 technically would be the choice But also beginners probably don’t have a lot of money, so the fx3 is financially safer

[@RealRyanSecord]

@@KofiYeboah Yeah I have noticed the artificial jitters before but thought it was possibly just really shaky footage, so that is a good point. I have the budget for an FX6 but the choice is an FX6 or an FX3 with a 70-200 GM ii OSS 2.8 lens because I hear you should "date cameras and marry lenses". Tough choice on how to blow an enormous amount of money.

[@josephfriedman614]

I have clients who don't really have an opinion about which cameras I bring to the shoot. I own the FS7 and an EX3. I do two camera interviews and although there is a slight color difference between the two, it's not a big deal matching them in Resolve.

That’s dope 👍🏾

[@richardwhittaker2879]

It feels weird to compare them, even if you have the same image quality the FX6 has a lot more capable features. Timecode, proper audio ports and the ability to change the exposure and other stuff without crimping your hands.

[@teacherofteachers1239]

As I am still learning, I was interested to hear you turn to the common and, for me, mysterious complaint about "lack of shutter angle" (at 6:59). Do folks mean there is a setting on some cameras that keeps shutter speed/frame rate ratio constant no matter the change in frame rate? Surely they are not complaining that their camera reports shutter speed in fractions of a second instead of degrees? I might be out of the loop as I shoot my films on very modest cameras (Fuji X-T3 and X-T4).

We use an A7siii and a fx3 for all our work (tv, streaming services, and internet) and want to upgrade to the fx6.

I currently have an a6500. Been using it since like 2016/2017. Needed something that was equally as good for photos and videos cause that's the type of work I was getting. I'm looking to upgrade to a fx6 now to focus more on video content. The fx3 is tempting too but the build of the fx6 is what got me. I usually run smaller crews so things like sdi & ND's i tink will be more valueable over time even though it's more expensive. The new film the creator directed by gareth edwards DP Greig Frasier with John David Washington was filmed mosly on fx3. Would be dope to get your take on that. If fx3 is good enough for a oscar winning DP then it's for sure a cinema camera, nuff said lol

[@KofiYeboah]

Idk if it’s mostly on the fx3 right now there’s no confirmed account from Grieg how much of the movie is on it ( the Alexa 65 is also listed which I’m sure was the primary based on the amount of vfx) but I gotcha !

I believe in the right tool for the right job, in my profesional opinion and I said profesional because that’s what I do 24/7 they both fit in different spaces all though they both can live in the same places I am going to mention. FX3 lives in the more fast pace environment (Weddings, Profesional Social Content, gimbal for bigger jobs and as a great B camera in corporate production) for me The FX6 is for more Corporate, bigger production where you have a crew despite how many people use it for handheld in my eyes this camera belongs on sticks rigged out but that just me and that’s how I Operate mines but I tell you this, despite the FX6 being a real cinema camera and the FX3 not because that’s the honest truth! 8 out of 10 times I gravitate more towards the FX3 every single time for these reasons ( Better codec options, stabilization with Sony glass will always win over the FX6 no matter how heavy you make it, it’s lighter so I move faster for fitness videos, the ability to capture the moment right away all of us who operate the FX6 knows that’s a true statement) the FX6 was my dream camera and now that I own it and make money with it, I kinda love the FX3 more lol but that’s just me!!!

Kofi great video as usual my friend. I'm team FX3 and it's for a number of reasons. As you mentioned the lack of flexibility in the codecs in the FX6 makes it a lot less appealing to me, at the very least it would've been nice if they had added XAVC-S which surely they could've. ALL-I on the FX6 are such big files and didn't make sense for my workflow. I had two a7SIII, ended up selling one then ended up selling the other to get the FX3. So far no regrets, really loving everything about it. Now and then I will try and look through the EVF and realise oh damn this ain't the a7SIII ha ha. Though, I do have the a7IV which for me is still a king hybrid camera. I do wonder though if we will see a firmware update with shutter angle for the FX3 in a future update and maybe Sony compressed RAW? that would be the day. Regarding client perception, I just ordered couple vlocks and rigging out the FX3 once done it'll pretty much look a lot 'like a bigger cinema camera. Though also allow me to not need to keep changing the batteries so often. That's one thing that was on my mind and what I noticed was the FX3 seems to drain the battery a lot quicker than my a7SIII. Anyway, great video as always!

The FX30!

What's your take on the fx6 vs a74 for brand videos or documentary styled video clips?

[@KofiYeboah]

Theres a video on the channel somewhere ( it’s about a year old) but both are fine

The FX3 is not a cinema camera…. Gareth Edwards; ‘Hold my beer!’ … the fact is when you know what your doing it doesn’t matter what equipment you use, it’s better to master light and production skills than focus on gear.

While I agree the FX6 is a better overall camera, the FX3 has built in stabilization, which is very useful in certain scenarios

[@adeloyearts205]

Tbh, i wish people would get practical with it. The fx3 is not a cinema camera because it lacks the features that have become essentisl for that format and are part of cameras for that format. There are ways to workaround them, but the term "cinema camera" is used to describe a class of cameras that come with those features and not just a decription of the image quality. And to be frank, I think the argument is being distorted when people say any camera is a cinema camera if you can press record on it. The fx3 is a fine camera, one that can get "cinematic" images from, but it lacks many of the features, software and hardware, that makes it not so. It shouldnt bruise anyones ego of the camera they have isnt commongly called a cinema camera. To add to this, its sad that sony is taking so long to add these software feautures that would help bridge that gap and im glad that people are calling it out on those missing features when others are willing to slap the word "cinema" or "cinematic" on things they like all because they wanna feel part of the club.

[@KofiYeboah]

Tbh I don’t think it’s a big deal😅

[@adeloyearts205]

@Kofi Yeboah I agree but I think it being labelled as a cinema camera is misleading at best. It's better to be aware of the features it doesn't have to make sure people are making an informed decision. Good video BTW, I hope I don't sound harsh or anything but I do think the fx3 is being labelled as something it isn't. Same goes for the sigma fp, S5II, and BMPCC cameras. They are all amazing cameras and it doesn't need to be mislabelled for us to know its still great. Biggest hurdle for starters is being misled about this stuff to then realise that they could survive on a £300-£700 camera given that the features on these "cinema" cameras is acc not gonna bridge that professional gap for them.

[@KofiYeboah]

@@adeloyearts205 unless the term is a sliding definition based on societal circumstances, kinda like “filmmmaker” no one’s shooting on film but based on the changes of how we access and use, the definition changes like anything else really

[@adeloyearts205]

@Kofi Yeboah completely agreed but as they change, what counts as them also changes. As it stands and under the commongly used cinema cameras, the fx3 alongside many mirror less just aren't cinema cameras. Which is fine. They are absolutely capable of making films and making films that could end up on the big screen but they just don't have those shared features.

[@montehalthon7831]

Actually turns out the ENTIRE movie was shot on fx3

[@KofiYeboah]

[@michaelangelo1887]

I seriously think a camera can't call itself a cinema camera if it doesn't have basic items like shutter angle.

[@cryptosig283]

EI sucks tho. Being limited to only 2 iso's just kills any run and gun shoot with minimum lighting. Its a beautiful camera when you have crew and lighting and well lit environments. But so much of the time I'd rather shoot on an fx3 over the fx6 specifically because they did not put flexible iso on the fx6 for slog3

[@KofiYeboah]

Wait what are you taking about ? Flexible iso is in the FX6 lol
