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

Lol. An A7SIII is not a cine rig.

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.

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

FX30 or FX3 or something else?

An S1ii costs less than an FX3 and outperforms it. If I didn't have Sony glass I'd take that over an FX3 or FX30 any day (I'm still shooting Sony with over 1k paid gigs done on an a7siii/FX3 so not a Panasonic shill, just being objective)

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

S1ii or S5iiX or keep a7Siii?

Opengate isn't a big deal for anyone until they have it, then it becomes something they can't go without. The S5iix is my bulletproof workhorse, I'll be plenty happy with it for years and years to come. My S1ii will be here Wednesday and it's going to be my new A-cam. 5.1K OG 60p is going to be a dr

Should I upgrade firmware from 2.0 to the newest?

The newer firmware versions can break wireless and audio features on a subset of Sony cameras. These issues have impacted the A7S III, FX3 and other Sony models. Most cameras update without issue. Some do not. It is not a user issue, it's a Sony issue. The impacted cameras work perfectly on the 2.x

A7V - Discussion

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

New A7s III firmware update 5.0

I’ve been burnt twice on A7S3 firmware updates with repair costs at my expense (!!), I’m never touching another firmware update again. It’s not even remotely my fault Sony decided to substitute parts AND write firmware that doesn’t work with all the parts THEY have shipped….
