Is the upgrade from fx30 to fx3 worth it?

How important low-light shooting is for your work? I used the FX30 for about 3 years and recently switched to the FX2. If you’re considering upgrading, one benefit I didn’t expect was the added flexibility. I mostly shoot travel/documentary-style work, so I didn’t really need full frame or the cooli

Convince me to switch

For wedding photography I think you'd be better off keeping the FX30 as your A camera, especially if you rely on autofocus. The main advantage with the BMPCC 4K is the better flexibility for grading: I have an FX30 as well and while the footage is much more flexible than I feared (in terms of adjust

Is the upgrade from fx30 to fx3 worth it?

I have an FX3, FX30, A7V and A7IV and I’d say go for the A7V. A7V has better AF better, better Ibis, is cheaper, sharper image, allows you to import viewing luts, better screen, allows smart AF while in clear image zoom. 8000 base ISO is a lot more practical then 12,800 and having to ND or stop down

FX30 or ZV-E1

I’m trying to decide between these cameras too, maybe the FX3 too if I find the right deal or can’t pull the trigger before an FX3 II drops and kills the used price of the FX3. Because that’s another thing you have to think about when buying an FX3 in 2026: it might soon be replaced, maybe – or mayb

16mm e mount recommendations

Just want to clarify, you realize when people say they are shooting “in 16mm” they are referring to the film format, not that they are shooting on a 16mm lens right? The only tradeoff with lenses designed for autofocus (Sony 15mm, Sigma 16mm, etc) is that the manual focus won’t feel as good. At this

FX3 vs FX30 for talking-head education videos?

Q1, Q2 & Q3. The FX30 is perfect for a controlled environment, you'll spend less on the body and lenses bc the sensor is smaller and you'll have some cash left for a great lighting setup that can bring you what you want. The AF is great, I've used it in poorly lit concerts recently with the basic So

Obsessed with BlackMagic but I’m a beginner

I have an FX3. A camera that’s a little out of date but still great. The fx30 is a cheaper alternative that’s also great. The screen flips out, you have autofocus, optical steady shot helps with handheld filming, you can shoot in SLOG for color control, or bake in Sonys already decent color science.

Fuji X-H2S or Sony FX30

Have both. FX 30 for my daughter going to film school next year. The XH2s is a hybrid camera with good features for both stills and video. It is the top of the line for your use. I got if for the great rolling shutter. No cooling fan built in but the addon one works fine. The 30 has a built in fan a
