Thoughts on the fx5? Are you guys gonna get one?

It’s all quality of life improvements at the end of the day. I would assume all of us here are trying to tell a good story. You can tell an amazing story with a camera that came out five or even 10 years ago. The FX5’s image doesn’t automatically tell a better story. The RAW recording doesn’t automa

Heavily leaning towards an FX2 right now. Bad idea?

So as someone who’s owned the A7iii, A7iv & Fx30; as well as I currently own the A7S iii, Fx3 & I just picked up the Fx2 I would say the Fx2 is a really good starter. It’s essentially an A7iv or A7C ii in a cinema line body. Truthfully I don’t shoot 4k 120 often and I do a lot of commercial and docu

Sony fx30 overkill for (almost) first camera?

My fx30 was my first proper camera and it definitely was way more camera than I needed, but I grew into it. I knew it was the camera I wanted, so I adapted to it, but it took about a year’s worth of study and practice with concepts like exposure, bit rate, frame rate, shutter angle, color grade/s-lo

FX30 una Cámara Legendaria.

Speaking from my own experience, I can tell you that the Sony FX30 is absolutely worth it in 2026—and rest assured, it will remain worth it for a very, very long time to come. To address the commentary currently being generated regarding the feature sets of cameras from other manufacturers—such as P

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

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

Can footage captured on an Osmo Pocket 4 be mixed with footage from a mirrorless or would there be obvious differences in quality to the average viewer?

I match Osmo Pocket 3 (DLog-M) with Sony (SLog 3) FX6, FX3, FX30 all day every day. Matches great.

Introducing Cinema Line FX5 | Sony | α

Have you seen the latitude of this stacked sensor. It almost 12.3 stops more than any sony, lumix Nikon or any other camera in this range. That raw format is compressed yes but it’s still 12 bit lot to play for a b cam and most important factor is the form. You can’t put fx6 in odd position and get

I want to buy 2x FX Cinema Cameras. But I don't want to record in S-log or Cinetone. Based on this, which one should I go for and does this make me stupid for considering a FX3?

Hey, I’m on fx30 with a rig and audio equipment invested into the ecosystem at this point too— first off congrats for looking into the fx line. They really are special cameras and you can’t go wrong with any of them. First off I’ll explain that s-cinetone is actually just a picture profile preset, w

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
