Hi Jason. The FX30 is very tempting. One aspect that I am cautious about is mixing APS-C gear with Full frame. What are the issues? Do you use your full frame lenses, or get specific APS-C - hence increasing your investment in glass. I do have a couple of old A mount APS-Cs which could geta new lease of life - though I doubt the auto focus is anywhere near as good as my current full frame lenses for my FX6 ad A7 iv.

I am in doubt about buying an FX30 vs A7IV. I like to shoot my social events without any added lighting (It's a personal thing) and the question at hand is whether the FX30 will be good enough in lowlight so I don't have to deal with noise in post production. I love the form factor of the FX30 and for my style of shooting to have good stabilization, zoom lever, 4:2:2...it's great, but I wouldn't want to crash in lowlight. Currently I do the events with the A7III and I am delighted with the quality of the images. I've seen a lot of reviews about the FX30, but when they talk about poor performance in lowlight, they always compare it to FX3, A7SIII, A7IV... and I don't think it's a fair comparison. The lenses I use are usually the Sony 18-105 f4 and if needed I could use the Sony 50mm f1.8 OSS, Tamron 18-35 f1.8 or in FF the Tamron 28-75 2.8 I also have an old FS5 and it would be great to be able to put the FX30 head to head Sorry for my English, I write from Barcelona, Spain Thank you

I'd wait until they announce the S1H mk II. Should be making its way to us as we are overdue for the next version and Panasonic will be releasing some cameras by end of year! That way you can keep all your L glass and batteries/ accessories! If you line of work required better auto focus then the switch to Sony will be justified but in terms of look, colors, and image stabilization, the S1H or panasonic for that matter typically is the better choice!

Or you can always grab the s5. Has just as many cinema features as the fx30 I would imagine, if not more, and you can keep all your lenses etc. The s5 is a beautiful size imo, and from my experience fondling it over at b&h lol. Especially compared to the a7iv/fx3 which are substantially chunkier and not small by any means. I actually couldn't stand the ergonomics of the a7iv/fx3 and apparently the A730 is exaclty the same. So for me that's actually a pretty big deal. Also I never loved the image out of the Sony cameras (and I've owned several) compared to other cameras like the s1h/s5 or even the sigma fp. The difference is night and day honeslty

switching systems is a whole another discussion. when choosing cameras you have to consider the whole eco system. lenses, b-cameras and upgradability etc

@@JasonMorrisphotocinema Hi Jason, I know! This will be a tough decision, for sure. Luckily enough, I am not a pro like you - just an amateuer who got addicted by taking movie pictures, coming from photography. So, for the moment, there is not too much gear that does fit my S1H only - just the kit lens, a cage, and a Sirui FF Anamorphic lens which I should be able to get another mount for. Ah, and a quite expensive Novoflex adapter to mount Nikon F-glass on L-mount cameras. All other gear, such as tripods, fluid heads, mono pods, cables, NDs,... can be reused. And I already own 2 e-mount sony lenses from my old Sony A6000. So, would be ready to shoot. The major question in my case is how mich the switch will cost me on the bottom line. But the perspective to carry a little camera with me while I am jut having a walk or sightseeing tour with my wife that in addition has 100% reliable AF (I mean the camera -:) ), and does deliver great cinema-acceptable footage is just so attractive.

@@akyerit Hi Jason, thanks for your great recommendations! Re the image quality coming out of the S1H I am quite happy so far. Anyway, I experienced the 10 Bit internal codec (even the 400MBit/sec one) to have its limitation when grading - I often get bandings in blue skies or large surfaces with different light shadings when going massive grading - so, much care required in post. I know, recording externally could ease the pain a bit. The Sigma FP would solve the image quality limitations with RaW DNG right away, and it's small and L-mount. What would you thing about the Lumix GH6? Yes, it's Micro 4/3 sensor only, but would allow smaller primes, making a smaller overall footprint when running & gunning. Your recommendations so far are worth having subscribed to your channel!

depends on lenses and other factors

People make a big thing about rolling shutter but in real life using a camera, how often do you actually intentionally jerk the camera sideways like that in a video shot? Not very often.

Could you compare it to the a6600 or older sony a6000 models

Might be problematic because the FX30 doesn't have a mechanical shutter. Flash is disabled on my A7 IV when the silent mode is engaged.

I wouldn't recommend the FX30 for flash photography

So, so so so.... Question is, I'm doing tons of vlogs about our trips to the mountains to do astrophotography, and honestly, we've been filming with the a7III and it's been great, but, obviously, it could be better. We use no lighting, everything is as it is, and that's when we started to think. An a7sIII.... but some people recommended us the FX30. Is it really that good?

Pre order is done ✔️ with handle..... might be 2 depending.... this will replace the a7IV planned. Soon the gun case will have triple setup FX30 with PZ 18-105mm OSS g FX3 with PZ 28-135mm OSS FX6 with DZO Catta Plus atomos V with sync AND Shogun connect Don't forget the Portacapture with Bluetooth for sync of time code

Which is a better camera to buy? The FX30 or the A7S III?

@mkphotofilm

Full frame will be better. But this has fx3 features. It's a hard call, but it is cheaper and more video-friendly than the siii

What about the screen? No KZreadr speak about the changes on the monitor. Actually the siii, iv, fx3 had only 1.44mil dots. The fx30 have 2.5mil dots. No noticeable difference?

The Rolling shutter a7 IV is much better with Aps-c mode. knowing that the fx30 is an aps-c camera, you should have compared the aps-c mode of the A7 IV.
