Does this sound like a fair deal?

Looking at just numbers, it's not worth it. Honestly look at the numbers, $30/hr x 5hrs = $150. The cost of renting from your local camera store, the most newest camera (canon r5 or sony a7siii) is about that much or likely higher. You're basically working for fun or loss.

Size comparison small cine rig vs. broadcast setup. Thought you might like this.

Lol. An A7SIII is not a cine rig.

The Sony Xperia 1 VIII is the anti-flagship: headphone jack, microSD, and thick bezels in 2026 | Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 inside, headphone jack outside – and it costs more than Samsung's best phone Galaxy S26 Ultra

While I assume in actuality their marketing team knows much better than me, it seems odd that they always take this big swing at the phone market with phones that have great style, but with astronomically high prices. Sony prices their phones like they do their cameras, which doesn't make a whole lo

Thoughts on the fx5? Are you guys gonna get one?

It’s all quality of life improvements at the end of the day. I would assume all of us here are trying to tell a good story. You can tell an amazing story with a camera that came out five or even 10 years ago. The FX5’s image doesn’t automatically tell a better story. The RAW recording doesn’t automa

Thoughts on fx5?

Feels like a step sideways rather than a step up. No joystick? No photography? Priced like an FX6? Open gate is raw only? Inferior Venice style menus? The A7S3 and the FX3 were prosumer grade cameras for everyone, but the FX5 is more of a niche pro cine cam. Not the best for the massive customer bas

FX5 Thoughts?!?

I was planning on trading in my A7SIII for one, but I’m not sure if it’s enough of an upgrade to justify the price. I love the features included, don’t get me wrong, but the footage I’ve seen with the new sensor isn’t anything amazing over the A7SIII. Maybe when it releases and people can really put

wth C300 mk III for 2999. automatically bought. crazy how quickly prices dropped.

Canon was much slower and did a lot less than Sony to jump into the "content creator" game. Had Canon provided an FX3 equivalent around the same time as Sony did they alot more people would have been shooting Canon for video now. The A7S3/FX3 did more to hook people into the Sony ecosystem than all

A7Siii Photos?

It’s plenty, i’ve shot wedding photography with the a7siii. Rarely in editing did I miss having more detail in cropping. You will be completely fine with the one camera.

Got a7sii and want to upgrade but… a7siii or fx3

If you like having a viewfinder, get the a7siii. If viewfinder doesn’t matter to you, the fx3 has more advanced cooling and built in mounting threads so you don’t need a cage to add accessories. I went with a7siii mainly because of the viewfinder, and I love it. Never had a problem with overheating
