People like Matti doing "reviews" but essentially just hyping the camera without any usable information to make a purchase decision. And then we have this ACTUAL review. Tons of information and helped me decide if this is the camera for me. Personally, the A7Siii fits better for my needs. Thanks Philip for the extremely helpful video!

I have a s7iii but may be this one as well... really like the quality in low light, don't need tracked autofocus... so...

Gerald randomly showing up in a video is just the bee's knees. This review was really great. I was really looking forward to hearing about this camera, as it's on my shortlist.

Well, I guess FX6 is my A cam & A7siii is my B cam... Not that I have the money for that scenario.

Hahaha that B-Roll was something special! Always appreciate your reviews.

The viewfinder is what I miss the most. I'm not a big fan of the loupe that came with my FS7m2 so I won't buy the one Sony ships with the FX9 for the FX6 I've ordered. The Zacuto Z-Finder seems to be OK but it's a bit pricey at € 500 plus VAT for ending up just with a magnification of the original 720p screen. How could Atomos sell me a Ninja which has a lot more features and 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution for € 300 plus VAT?

The best thing about new camera releases is that we get new films by Philip Bloom.

Well done, Phillip. Always helpful to watch these reviews.

I never miss the reviews...even if I am not interested in the camera....this was a piece of art as usual...you are a true artist not a camera reviewer Philip !....the track that you used here in the beginning ( the one that you used also for the a7s iii) is such a great match with that b roll.....I don't know it's just this vibe that gets me as a viewer to keep watching even I already don't want to upgrade now !!

Philip - As a professional cinematographer i’m stunned of how amazing this video is. I own two FX6 and love them. Been thinking about buying Neat for a long time.. well, you convinced me. Have a great day- keep making amazing videos like this. Oh.. I also fell asleep at some point of the video, but that’s because of how calm and nice your voice and the beautiful footage is. A beauty for the eye and brain.

Your humor and sarcasm made my day. Best review of the FX6 is from the two British dudes! I’ll keep filming on my A7$ iii 🙌🏻

Great work as usual, the best story teller I have seen so far, doesn't overuse B-roll and other new-gen tricks but still makes you watch it till the end, and only disappointment I have is that it ended, which means I need to wait another video! I am amazed by your skills!

Finally got around to watching this, and it didn't disappoint. There's a certain cadence and flow to your videos that you really don't get elsewhere. Respect for putting in the time and effort it takes to create these long reviews!

You have such a unique way about you -- came for the FX6 review, stayed for your personality (and of course the review lol)

I'm going to call it right now, Phillip Bloom's reviews are the most enjoyable reviews to watch at least for me. There are many great reviewers out there but (unless firmware updates change the reviewed item) Phillip's reviews become a real life user's guide. Thank you Phillip.

This is the video I've been waiting for (after Gerald does his technical rundown)!

Fantastic review Phillip. Beautifully done and super informative. It plays like a story, not a review. You are the best.

All I can say is Thanks Philip for always inspiring

whenever I see a cinema based camera release I'm always looking forward to whether Philip will ost a video about it... and man I always come out entertained after each 30+mins video he puts out.

Superb work Philip. Beautifully edited, great music.

Serious review with some doubts, some slices of fine british humor, combined with nailing facts and precise details and: time for second thoughts and not released on the release day!. I love it , thanx so much!

I don't do video, so this is a bit like a foreign language film...but very pleasing to watch. Bloom productions always are.

Thank you! I was so looking forward to your review of this camera! Beautifully done. And I’m actually less confused now :)

It can be sooo fantastic when someone like they guy in the van on Waterloo bridge waves to the camera looks directly into the lens or interacts somehow in a positive way.. if it fits what your filming of course... Unfortunately many people these days seem to be auspicious of people with cameras for some reason. So it's kind of exciting when someone does something like that and it adds a unique moment that will be impossible to replicate ever again.

This was exceptional. I cannot think of a “review” I have every enjoyed watching as much as I enjoyed watching this. Enjoyed being the key phrase here. Thank you. Thank you so much.

I'll probably never buy Sony fx line cameras but Philip's review are so good to watch. So much work put into them. Superb content.

You also just saved me so much hassle in the wedding video I am doing! I use Neatvideo and have a pretty powerful 2020 iMac, and would have so many crashing episodes within Premiere! Thank you so so so much! This is why I love your videos, practicality throughout the ENTIRE workflow! I never knew that having it as the first effect is what helps Premiere!

While I always watch the many KZread reviews of a new Sony Camera once the launch occurs and the review embargo is lifted, I always patiently wait for your review Philip and I’m glad your review always comes a few days to a week after the embargo.. (probably due to Neat video NR rendering your “compact” video in PP) I knew many reviewers would rave about the FX-6 size, specs and the price value for what it can produce, however I can’t think of a DP or film maker I trust more to explain (while entertaining me) ,what lies beneath the surface of a film making tool and what is great, good and what could be so much better with some additional effort. Thank you so much for what you do.

Just bought an FX6. Your review is so on point to my experiences with it so far. Great job. Cheers from Germany - Hope to see you again soon!

thank you for taking time to spot the light on these issues.

Loved it!! Cinematic b-roll was out of this world 😂

As Always, great work-simply the best! I would love to see the timeline of this Film in your editor. Bet it’s crazy in places but beautiful all through.

Another classic review, thank you. Amazing story telling.

This, and all cameras, are just "one" firmware away from true greatness that will never happen, now or ever, because perfection kills business and business is the last thing to ever get killed.. even people get killed first. My take? There are too many cameras in the market already, just, too many. Just go out, shoot with whatever you have, and if what you create is telling, moving and has substance, positively no one will care what is what shot on, what codec you used or how good the dynamic range is. Another camera that Sony expects to sell to everyone that already has several other cameras because.. well.. it's better in some ways. Thank you for the review.. much better than the camera itself :)

@@frankfeng2701 Yes, fully agreed. But I feel more and more we live in a world of products being purposely released that are targeted for having limited and crippled functions so that you have to buy something else or keep desiring for the next thing.. or at the very least having to spend extra after your purchase along the way to fix things that should not need to be fixed or not having been added in the first place. This is not the question for the perfect camera quest, this is the question of cameras with things that make no sense and that have obvious flaws in an effort to buy several so all together you can actually get a working system with the features you need.

LOVE the implementation of the music!

Thanks for the review. In about 42 minutes, you got me laughing, listening, doubting the purchase of my fx9 which I received a week ago, but then again not doubting it as much whilst enjoying the lovely footage from the fx6, at times scratching my head but knowing the biggest part of the beautiful imagery is the operator as shown overall in this review and especially in the last shot how all of this ends with the tilt up to the firework. Well, have to go back to my fx9 and understand it better, while in the meantime waiting to see what the A7IV will bring. Thank you Philip.
