Is FX3 better than Sony A7V?
The FX3 has a lower MP sensor with larger pixels which reduces rolling shutter and can record in basically any framerate. The FX3's image will look better. Personally, I take Lumix cameras over Sony

Not sure where this fits in…. #sonyfx2
Oof. The EVF is cool but I can’t believe they’re choosing this sensor and these specs in 2025. No open gate is inexcusable IMO. And this is coming from someone who likes Sony cameras — own an FX3/6

FX3/NAB News
I disagree. They can improve sensor readout, update autofocus with their latest AI tracking, improve IBIS, implement open gate, they recently filed patents for internal NDs with extremely small form factor that could possibly be implemented, as well as 32-bit float and an improved audio tophandle. P

What’s the difference in an Arri Alexa and a Sony fx3? In terms of the image.
I’ve been following the minutiae of CMOS sensor technology for the better part of 15 years now, and the dominance of Arri’s imagers really is a testament to their approach. The thing to keep in mind with Arri when considering the sensors is that they spare no expense. The first thing they do is a co

Best two camera set up
kinda in the same boat with my FX30. if internal ND is a dealbreaker, the FS7 II is solid but its older and heavier. for doc work, matching two FX30s is honestly your best bet for color and workflow - just use external VND adapters on both. the FX3 has internal ND? wait no it doesnt - same as FX30.

FX3 price drop is inevitable right?
I can’t see the new specs and modern features somewhere you will need them but I still don’t see beat the fx3 low light anywhere ..fx3 still selling all the sensors you are looking to made from Sony they don’t interested about you they interested about sales if they still sale they don’t care the do

Returning my FX30 - What's the right upgrade from GH5 for event/social media work?
You are me... Shot on the GH5 with 18-35 for years. Love the image and set up, DPs and producers thought I was shooting on a Red. But it obviously has some limitations. I got hired for a project that for me justified an upgrade, but like you didnt want to shell out a bunch of money. I ended up pulli

Buy FX3A now or wait for FX3 II (god knows when)?
The FX3 is great but you yourself are worried about a new version releasing, and I would be too. It's 5 years old and in many ways a Nikon ZR for 1/2 the price is a better camera. You should also consider that camera with an adapter so you can use your Sony glass. The A7V has better AF and a more de

Considering trading FX6 for FX3
Hey, I empathize with your situation and strongly recommend against selling or trading your FX6. It’s one of the most sought-after Sony cameras for a reason. It offers professional capabilities in a compact setup. I’ve been filmmaking for 13 years and waited for a camera like the FX6. I bought it wi

Considering trading FX6 for FX3
La différence de poids est vraiment minime, même une fois équipé. Il ne faut pas oublier que la FX3, c'est juste un a7siii dans un autre corps, l'image est la même, le capteur aussi. Pour avoir énormément utilisés les caméras Sony, tu peux te retrouver avec pas mal de soucis si tu filmes en continue
