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

Lol. An A7SIII is not a cine rig.

Full circle, FX3 to S1 II then back to FX3.

This is interesting. I used to have a Sony A7SIII and today I have two S5IIX. For me, aside from the autofocus, everything else is much better on the Lumix, even though it’s considered a “lower” camera. The colors are better and more pleasing. The codec is very easy to work with. Skin tones are bett

A7V - Discussion

Hmm nikon and lumix seem more relevant in a number of ways. Sony is still all about a7siii and fx3/6.

Full Frame vs Crop sensors is mostly just vibes these days

I “downgraded” from FF to a GH7. I have used the A1, A7SIII, Z9 and Z6III in professional settings. But the GH7 gives me the best IBIS/Dual IS of all of these cameras to the point that I very often don’t need a tripod or gimbal. The GH7 flat out won’t overheat, both Sonys did often. And the MP4 Lite

Bigger camera, more clients?

In LA, when I'm being hired out just to be a 2nd or 3rd shooter, they want bare minimum an FX30/FX3 or even A7siii. I don't take these gigs often anymore cause I have an in-house 9-5 job in production. Time is spent better there. When I am in control, I use my GH7s. Lumix actually treats their users

Returning my FX30 - What's the right upgrade from GH5 for event/social media work?

I also grabbed a GH7 used recently and it’s so much better for my video work than any of my previous cameras, A7SIII, Z9, Z6III.

New A7s III firmware update 5.0

It’s market segmentation. The same argument was made about the FX3 receiving shutter angle and anamorphic support. Some said it would never happen, as Sony was using the differentiation to push buyers to the FX6, a camera at nearly twice the price. But eventually, Sony relented. The FX3 received shu

Confused which native Iso on fx3 ?

Let me put on my tinfoil hat and get out the conspiracy yarn for a moment: For Sony cameras that don't have explicitly stated "base sensitivities" the generally agreed on way to determine the base ISO is the mentioned method of lowering the ISO until funny lines appear around the number. The lowest

4k/24, 4k/30, or 1080/60 for Real Estate Video? (Sony a7III)

In my opinion the 1080p/60 is the single worst thing about the A7III. Just an absolutely trash super low bitrate codec that produces soft, mushy garbage footage. I tried pretty much every permutation of framerates and codecs with my A7III and I was honestly never really happy with any of the video I

Question about "expensive short film" cameras

Production design, Lighting it well and hiring a colorist will get you further than buying a new camera. All cameras are good now, and are essentially the same, (excluding the alexa35). Cameras are simply a data collection box, And a colorist can pretty much make anything look like anything else. Ho
