What competitors colour sciences/log profiles integrate well with Slog3?

Don't know exactly if any other brands necessarily "match well" with Slog 3, but if i could make a recommendation I would tell you to consider investing in a Color Chart such as those from X-Rite or Datacolor. I bought a Datacolor SpyderCheckr a couple of years ago and it's AMAZING for getting a goo

DJI Mic 2 or RØDE Wireless GO 3 for outdoor videos? Also confused between FX30 and A7 IV

Another one of the audio options I was also looking at was the sennheiser profile wireless lavs. It has 32bit float AND locking 3.5mm ports for more secure setup (which means you could “screw in” a lav mic). With the other options like Røde pros you get 32bit but not locking lavs. Since you mentione

Adventure Cinematography

Yo! I would go a6700. Like you said: 10 bit color so grading is fun. It feels compact but not cheap or anything like that. It has the same sensor as the Fx30 from Sony's cinema line so the footage looks great. It is weather sealed, so while I would still be very careful with it - it's "supposed to"

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

Been wanting this camera for so long

I bought the FX30 because of the crop sensor. Tons of lenses to play with. Being a cinema camera, the quality is excellent and in low light with a great lens you are set as well. These cameras are the pro line of Sony. They are made to last “forever” with good care. But you only keep lenses forever.

Best video camera worth buying the MOST currently in your opinion?

Been running the Sony FX30 for a few months now and it’s basically the “I want cinema features but I’m not paying FX3 money” camera. I came from hybrid/mirrorless stuff and the difference is immediate: this feels like an actual Cinema Line tool, not a photo camera that happens to shoot video. 6K ove

Camera for beginner filmmakers in 2025

Personally I think the z50 mkii is a more compelling offer. The z mount is a more versatile mount so you can get a ton of different lenses, and Nikon has a great path to upgrade to internal raw shooting cinema cameras down the line if you decide to upgrade. Sony is a great system too, don’t get me w
