The Best Allrounder? One Year with the Sony FX6 (Updated Impressions + Firmware 2.0)

The Sony FX6 is one of the best cameras I’ve ever had the pleasure of owning and using. One year on and a massive firmware update later, I wanted to look back at my initial impressions, see how my thoughts have changed, and whether firmware 2.0 can make this already great camera even better.

[@lewisaa05]

Love that dramatic reenactment 😂. Also now I want and Fx6. So thanks for that 💰

[@MattQuattro]

I did think about taking a video of some birds but I just didn't have the patience 😂

The FX6 with the recent firmware upgrade is such a versatile camera. It's perfect for all my upcoming projects, which mainly consist of event videography and corporate videos. Great video and looking forward to the next one!

[@MattQuattro]

Cheers mate! When I mentioned other people speaking highly of the FX6, you were definitely on my mind 👍

[@schoeferfilm]

[@MattQuattro]

Cheers man, I’ve tried to dial it in over the years!

[@LivingLife972]

question, so it looks like right now the FX6 is about $6,000. can you tell me about the estimate cost of the other needed gear - mics, mounts, lenses that one would need to buy in addition to operate this camera? not the extra things, but just the other things that is necessary. would it be an additional $3K - $5K? Thanks

Hi Mark, it's a tough question to answer because it depends on what you're planning to shoot. But I would budget for a couple of zoom lenses covering you from 24mm to 200mm, a few Sony Batteries (or an external option), and some fast SD cards for the higher quality recording options. This gets you going and things like a cage and monitor are all personal preference.

Very true. Sony complicates things for no reason.
