Alpha ZV-E1

Sony ZV-E1. You can buy used ones for less than $1500. Camera has the same low light sensor as the A7Siii/fx3.

No, I just used a Sony ZV-E1, it takes really crisp low light videos. Why the video looks a little weird is the compression to make it a GIF that works well on Reddit.

When shooting listing videos with my Sony ZV-E1 (Same sensor and processor as the FX3 or A7SIII) and either my Viltrox 16MM F1.8 for the majority of the shots or my Tamron 28-75 F2.8 for detail shots, I typically shoot in 4K60, so depending on the lighting conditions in each room, I'll typically sho

Sony FX3 is kinda where the consumer high end went. Lumix with the S5IIx is the best value for money right now. The Sony FX30/ZVE1 and Lumix S9 make for great small form factor video machines. Most of today’s cameras make a great image but are limited by how long you need them to run, cameras used t

Honestly, right now I'd say invest in lenses for your FS7. Lenses and accessories. FS7 is great for what it's worth. And is a great option for the doc work you're looking for. Unless going for the FX3, FX30 or FX2, you probably are going to loose on features you might need, such as great run and gun

Also keep in mind that the FX3 has a 1:1 readout in 4k and the Canon is line skipped. Common misconception about the FX3 (and α7S III, ZV-E1, FX6 that use the same sensor). These cameras actually create their UHD 4K from a ~4.2K oversample, i.e. the full width of the sensor. The Canon oversamples fr

I've only bought one camera (Sony ZV-E1) new in my life because the used prices were close to brand new. The rest of my cameras I have bought used (both from private sale and reputable shops) and I've had 0 issues with any of them. Isn't it better to just buy used from a reputable dealer and get a c

Get an A7Siii used. Best deal by a mile. Especially if they toned down the noise reduction (not sure if they did this though). That higher second native ISO of 12,800 on the FX3, A7Siii, and ZVE1 makes a large difference. Between the FX30 and FX2 definitely grab the FX2, you can save money buy getti

I would put dji osmo pocket 3 in the same category for video. Small, audio quality is great, can shoot d-log, stabilization is amazing. Bigger cameras like lumix, sony etc. are just not in the same category of weight and portability. Even the the aps-c sensor ones, they are just much bulkier when yo

Depends on your needs to be honest. Tonnes of people film on a phone and make great videos. Tonnes more film on phones and make trash. Same can be said of DSLR. But they both have their uses depending on HOW and where you film, and the look you're going for. Personally, I do my talking head and stud
