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

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

Sony admits A7S III firmware updates are breaking features
This is a crap excuse. It’s not that features are stripped. It’s the fact that Sony KNOWS that cameras are getting bricked and crippled. Yet, they are making customers pay for fried motherboards and arguing with them about how ITS NOT their fault. Don’t get me wrong i appreciate them still adding fe

FX3/NAB News
Been saying this for years now. There is no upgrade for the FX3. It’s like upgrading a hammer. A hammer does what it’s supposed to do. They offered a better screen with the FX3a. There’s nowhere for the A7SIII/FX3/FX6 to go. That 12MP sensor is very specific and special.

So done with Camera YouTube
That’s unfortunate. I have 2 a7siii cams as well as a fx3 for weddings. I’ve shot hour long ceremonies in the heat and my a7siii cams have never overheated. I wonder if you just got a faulty cam. Do you have your heat shut off set at the highest temp? I know that’s frustrating to buy an unreliable c
