@@smann7236 yes, still have it (along with one FX6 and one FX3). You can absolutely get that look as with most modern cameras shooting log and good exposure. I’m often solo operating my camera and have been actually looking into it: the FX9 serves me much better than Arri mini and mini LF for example. Especially when it comes to external sound sources (XLR inputs) and variable ND-filter. However, the new Arri Alexa 35 seems to be an absolute beast and would be awesome to work with… but the price for that camera is the same as six or seven FX9:s 😄

@@MattiasSkoog cool..thanks for reply. I'm from UK, trying to organise short film production, 35mm and Arri Alexa too expensive here. I found local cameraman who has Sony fx7 and Fx9. I'm really paranoid with the digital look, but looking at the film footage I'm impressed. I like the colours...so I may choose fx9 . Two questions: I'm confused about shooting raw or s-log or cine...do I have to shoot raw to get awesome colours or can I just shoot slog or cine to get film look? Also what's your opinion on Sony a7 for short film production? Can I still get the film look with that..

@@smann7236 first of all, I would say that lighting and lens choice along with the operators experience and knowledge has a bigger impact than what camera model is used. With that said I think it’s wise to consider the whole package when selecting your gear for the whole project. If a smaller (cheaper) camera body give you the opportunity to rent better lights and lenses and more days to master it, I think you’ll get better result. But, that’s just my two cents. What I do know is that many people (including myself in the beginning) thought that the magic happens in the spec sheet of the camera body. That is simply not the case. I’ve seen crappy footage from the best of cameras and I seen wonderful work from some really basic gear to summon up my thoughts.

I will admit I've hated Sony for years, but I did use the FX9 on a shoot not long ago purely because the rental house gave it to me super cheap during lockdown - and I have to say I 100% agree with you about the colours, the codec and the variable ND. All of those features are like.. oof yum.

Agreed !!! I’ve had my Fx9 for 2 months now and it’s amazing !

Wow, those final images look unreal! Love the camera movements you used to match the subjects.

Simply amazing and breath taking to say the least. I am a newbie to this arena and I have been doing tons of research and I really appreciate your insight on the FX9. An amazing little beast in a small package at one helluva price.....Thanks!! 😁👍

Great video. Just got mine and love it so far.

Great video! I love the authentic opinion and honesty! I've been doing mental gymnastics trying to decide if I should by the FS7 mark II or the Fx9----and I think this video has swayed me to the Fx9.

I would say any camera as far as you've got the right idea, that said your footage looks great Mark. Thanks for a constant inspiration to create better and better contents😉

Can you talk about fx9 settings and color grading. Would love a color grading breakdown.

Hey Mark are you experiencing any of the 'green fringe'?

Thanks for this Mark, I loved shooting on the FX9 too. But I think for me personally the C500 just had a few more ecosystem features I preferred. What I think is crazy is that in this day and age, it's the little things, like ergonomics or button placement etc that separate these cameras (price not withstanding) instead of major feature differences (again for someone who isn't looking to shoot raw all the much). I also think Ecosystem (like apple) plays a much bigger role than it used to. IE if you dig e-Mount lenses over EF you will find better experiences when not using adapters and matching the camera to your lens collection is a big factor. Especially when nearly all cameras create amazing images these days. But damn that 180 frames makes such a huge difference when not cropped, no joke.

@@markbone Thank you! Anytime :). Also slight addition to the AVC stigma (it really exists) I think labeling codecs is just a mess in general. AVC and H.264 are interchangeable and were adopted in the name I think due to a licensing agreement with MPEGLA folks. So Sony has their distro named X-AVC- (I,L,S) and Canon their XF-AVC title. They both operate very similarly. H.264 compression on the frames and a choice to be intra frame or long gop. I think this is the biggest disservice, since intra frame codecs make a huge difference in edit-ability and grading to an extent, while the log gop varients can suffer serious quality loss at the lower datarates or with more complex and varied footage. They really are completely different meals, but sony and canon package them like different flavours.

Sony FX9 is a great camera just have a few issues with it. Such as green fringing during heavy back lighting and when I import footage to premiere the audio comes in as mono instead of stereo and I have to switch it every single time... Anyone else having these issues?

Can you review the V-Raptor when it comes out?
