FX30 or FX3 or something else?

An S1ii costs less than an FX3 and outperforms it. If I didn't have Sony glass I'd take that over an FX3 or FX30 any day (I'm still shooting Sony with over 1k paid gigs done on an a7siii/FX3 so not a Panasonic shill, just being objective)

Does this seem like a good deal? Its 3k for the lot

Saying an fx3 let alone an fx30 delivers a better image than a ursa g2 is so far from reality. The Ursa has one of the best latitudes for a S35 sensor, build in ND's, RAW flexibility and overall a better user interface. The image quality outperforms both the fx3 and fx30 in lab tests. Media options

Sony FX6 Peaking is incorrect

Same issue on FX3, FX30, Burano... Sony doesn't want you to use anamorphic unless you're using a Venice and paying them a license for anamorphic firmware. There are other quirks you might encounter shooting anamorphics on Sony bodies, but don't expect them to fix them

Is it safe to buy used FX3?

Well...I'd buy insurance too if you do. I picked up a used FX-30 (not the same, I know) and within a month all the physical buttons died. I could control the camera from the app, but no amount of software reset, new cards, or anything else would fix it. Sony was suggesting I send it to them. I just

FX2 Camera Debate

I think Sony has actually been listening to feedback. Let me explain. I bought the FX3 as soon as it came out, at first people didn’t like it, they were upset it was a more expensive version of the a7siii with an audio handle. Later people praised the design, usability, and look of the FX3 and the a

FX3 or R6V

Thank you so much! The fx3 felt like way more than I needed and I did want to be able to do sports photos occasionally and I think this canon allows for it with its shutter speed and ability to take continuous shots? I was looking at the Sony a6700 but was very worried about overheating and wondered

FX3/NAB News

Sony not creating an FX-3II is a big mistake. Nikons ZR will have the ZR pro version, will blow FX-30 away. LUMIX has some super video cams,then kineinfinity now, really interesting. Canon just came out with something… Sony is great, I’m a Sony shooter. Though for video maybe something else.

Not sure where this fits in…. #sonyfx2

The price is laughable considering this is a glorified A7IV that's priced significantly more. Still no open gate, only 4K60 at S35 crop in 2025? Especially considering Lumix just dropped the S1ii e which is more comparable in price to an A7IV but gives you internal ProRes Raw, 32bit float audio, 6K

Camera recommendation

Sony FX-30 just for apsc lens selection. Note that it doesn’t have a mech shutter and can’t do flash afaik. You can still take photos.

Zoom for BMPCC4K?

I'm actually using the OG BMPCC and Micro Cinema cameras (I have two of those), so my speedbooster wouldn't work on your camera. I also have a Sony FX30, which is Super 35/APS-C, and I actually use a Metabones speedbooster on that as well, mainly because I have full-frame lenses apart from the Sigma
