I second the vote for a Cine EI tutorial. I've watched a few on Cine EI, and they never showed what changes you made when working with Cine EI.

@Kaotix_music Жыл бұрын

I only use Cine EI with my Fx30 and I can tell you my first day using it…it was confusing as hell until I saw Sonys video on what Sony EI is really for. In short…it keeps you strictly at only it’s one of its 2 base ISOs. Cannot divert from that in Cine EI. The change of ISO put simply is “FAke”. It’s for monitoring purposes as we are really supposed to expose +2 stops over exposure which for monitoring purposes…isn’t ideal. So it forces you to use your NDs for proper exposure, rather than increasing ISO away from its base. It’s just to keep you at bass, then to lower your ISO for “monitoring” to know what your recording will look like in post when you lower that exposure. Once I got the hang of it…I noticed nearly zero noise I’m my shadows and blacks because I’m properly expose, while also at only base ISO

Well if the adjustments are just for monitoring purpose, how do I set it to 2 stops over?🤷🏾‍♂️.....

Bravo ! Excellent review, many thanks Matt ! I now have another page to my dilemma. I'm a wedding photographer who is offering (beginning in 2023) photo+video coverage. My current kit is fuji xt3+23/35/56. For photos i'm happy with the results for video in stressful moments i'm a little worried about the performance of the bodies. I had planned on changing some lenses with year and going with 18/33/85 (viltrox) for photo. My debat is simple... stay with Fuji and upgrade camera bodies (xt5 maybe) and accept that it's there will still be issues with auto focus or... move to Sony for some or all of my work. The obvious solution seems to be the a7iv, but you video has me wondering if the solution isn't a fx30 as a B-cam to complete my fuji kit.

@slangdoll Жыл бұрын

If I don't use simultaneous recording (rebel) and I put my larger but slower card (v30) in slot 1 and my faster but smaller card (v90) in slot 2... is that a good strategy for only filling my v90 with footage my v30 is too slow to capture? Like, the default recording procedure is to fill card 1 first so if I put my fastest card there, I'm thinking I'll just fill that with my normal footage and be full when I need it but if I put my fastest card in slot 2, when the camera determines that my first card can't handle it, it will use my fastest card in slot 2. Is that accurate? Does it work?

So, I photograph weddings, and want to get into filming, occasionally film parts of the wedding on a tripod with my 2nd A cam (A7 III) photograph with my A7R III. But I lose my 2nd cam (prime shooter) Settings issues aside, I want a low budget video cam for shooting on a tripod (mostly ceremonies and video guest books, and playing around to learn more). Am eyeballing the zv-e10 but it does not have dual card slots (could possibly be overcome by using a monitor or 2 cameras as they are insanely cheap)? I currently do not grade my colors for video (yet) as it is too much of a hassle with 8 bit, also not getting a lot of money for it as it started mostly to get all the phones out of the shots (Piss off with your phone, already taping the ceremony). No editing apart from some titles and not spending too much time on it as editing a proper wedding film will take me probably 4 times more time than editing the photo’s (me = noob) and also not enough coverage as I do it mostly on my own. Getting to the question: what is the cheapest (Sony) way to safely tape parts of the wedding (dual recording) in 4K? I like to travel light, everything I use apart from the tripod and light stands/ modifiers I carry on me.

Just came across this comment and I thought I’d give you my thoughts. I have a7iii - although it’s a full frame camera the colours on my fx3 is so much better. For video of definitely go with fx30. Also a7iii has time limit (29min). It’s my c cam which I’m thinking of selling and buying fx30 to pair with my fx3 and Zv-e1. I’ll still be using FF lenses cause I’m future I may upgrade it again. Lenses last longer than cameras lol. Another personal advice. I had just switched from BMPCC6KPRO and 4k. I found it to be very hard to film whilst manual focusing and certain shot I simply could not pull off… and although BRAW is amazing codec, files are way too large imo.

I ask because with my a6400 both screens stay on but only for HD recording- the moment I record in 4k, the camera's LCD goes to black-no video but I can see the display info on the camera's LCD but NO VIDEO...is the FX30 the same?

Hi Matt, Great review thak you, out of interest what good all round lens would you recommend for the FX30? very best, Charlie

It's seems weird to me that Sony chooses lower resolution on their full-frame FX3 but higher resolution on their apsc FX30, unless they are just too lazy not to recycle the old sensor found on 4-year-old Fuji XT3. If FX30 had a low 12MP sensor, it'd have much faster readout and less 4k120p crop, which would also hurt their full-frame line.

Unrelated to the camera, what are the scattered LED lights you have on your back wall? I'm trying to add depth of a space and like that look.

I could be wrong but I think it’s a spot light mount with a gobo. I’ve seen similar and that’s what they did.

@@whoismatt Thank you! Working on my Q1 budget and adding a Gobo kit onto that list, haha.

the second I heard "speed booster" and "which increase the low light performance" I decided I'll go for this camera. Boom!

Hey brother ❤I just bought the fx30, I’m not a photographer just for video purpose, now I’m kinda regretting that for a savings of few hundred dollars I missed out on a full frame sony camera? I kind of worried if fx30 is future proof as of today

Yes! Please make a CineEI video!

Not to nitpick but doesn't this camera have the same AF system/performance as the a7iv, which is technically "better" than the a7siii/FX3?

Funny enough, in Asia they have the version with the handle available but not the camera only version.

Matt: Tendras que pensar muy bien que lentes vas a comprar si compras la FX30 Todos los usuarios que siempre usamos APSC y tenemos lentes apsc sin pensar en los recortes ni conversiones de cual seria la "true focal": O_o jajaja just kidding, love the video plus I find some stuff that didn't know yet about this camera so thanks for the little tips you mentioned. I think the FX30 within get any further... is the fx3 for poor/cheaper creators xd such good features for the apsc line. Great!

Last but no less important: New sub! love the part when you compared to your first canon. It reminds me to my old Nikon 3200 which has the same features.. Now Im working with an a6400. Hopefully I can afford the fx30 In the next months 😅
