People will absolutely shit on s35, and then in the same breath say that roger deakins' work on Skyfall is some of the best cinematography of all time
Word he's the king of super 35
shocking amount of people really don't care for super35 sensors when they can really accomplish the exact same image quality as a full frame. size really doesn't matter.
The sensor has a great personality
Nah, man. Size extremely matters. It only doesn't matter if you stick to base ISO and don't need to push ISO too high like the A7SIII and FX3. I have the A7SIII, getting A7Rv later this month, and gonna get the FX30 as well as a B-cam. It can as well be a great A-cam, just let's not twist facts. I think Sony should release stacked APS-C sensors though. Also medium format is much better than FF it just doesn't have enough support to be sensible for filmmaking.
@@Bo_Hazem ok you had me up until you said medium format. i understand that although super35 has been the standard for literally ever in filmmaking, and the recent push for full frame in cinema looks to be very promising with a few dope and accessible cameras showing up in triple A movies. But medium format? why? there is little to no benefit and slower. but yeah nah mate i get what you're saying about the ISO. I'd like to think that the fx30 is perfect for anyone taking filmmaking seriously and want to start out with a camera that can play the part. it's packed full of the right features (aside from shutter angle apparently) but arguably sets the correct limitations and creates an understanding of what you can and can't get away with; allowing for critical thinking to take over and find solutions around the limitation of it's sensor. i think that in itself is very fun.
@@jorky I'm dead serious about medium format, have you seen their pictures? They are insane. Large format is viable as well for proper 16K to kill iMAX. Also I don't disagree with you, just wildlife documentary and photography can be punishing. Those buying $13K lenses aren't crazy. I can manage with only FX30 myself and will get one for streaming, it's brilliant. But FF is just better, mate. That doesn't mean S35 is bad.
@@Bo_Hazembros talking like medium format has been a thing in video for eons. Medium format isn’t even a video term. Now the Fuji GFX100 and its mark ii has now made an interesting introduction to the industry as like a mini “nearly” 65mm digital large format. Neither is “better”. The only thing that makes them better or worse is their dynamic range and the level of engineering behind its readout, processing power etc. ISO is only extra effective if you have good dynamic range. ARRI just made an ARRI Alexa 35 that covers just a bit more than Super 35 and has insane dynamic range. So by definition their super 35 is by far better than most all your FF cameras. 😂 we’re also not trying to “kill” IMAX, but rather democratize it. Medium format provides a new larger field of view that is similar to IMAX, but isn’t as large as the actual Alexa 65. The newly announced Blackmagic Large Format 65mm 17k cinema camera will provide probably the most affordable true cinema package that will be fine to fully democratize Large Format 65mm IMAX. On the other hand, I am assuming you are referring to the Old Fast Glass cinema build that repurposed the GFX100ii to be like an “almost” 65mm IMAX competitor and agreed that it’s so cool. Just don’t rip on different format like Super 35 when they have been the gold standard formats for like most of the entire existence of cinema itself, while using terms that live on technicalities. The quality of the sensor and who made it makes it better, not the format of the sensor. And that rule only applies to digital as well. Celluloid Film Super 35 cameras are just as great as larger formats. They just capture a different field of view. Which is entirely a production decision where it might be better, or worse depending on why they pick it. 😂 No hate bro 😎 it just that you can’t just say “it’s just better, mate” 🤣🤣🤣 the technically best consumer cameras doesn’t mean it IS the best for the whole Industry. But it can drive innovation! 😊
For my novice landscape, food, travel, and portrature photography and family video, I upgraded from samsung S23 to pamasonic S5iiX. I couldn't be happier.
While I looked at a6700/fx30 the EVF and LCD didn't compare in person. A6700 and sigma trio was same price as full frame S5iiX with 35,50,85 1.8 primes.
I wanted the fx30 but the a6700 is basically the fx30 so I’m chilling atm even from a full frame 🌱
The table hop at 3:14 was absolutely hilarious great video haha
The FX3 and FX30 are low key great stills cameras.
Shutter angle will be added in an update in September I believe
I've been eyeballing the FX30 for the last year and then the A6700 came out. But because of the fact that I don't want to have to worry about overheating or attaching an external fan, the FX30 became the obvious choice. Thanks for the great video, Jake ❤
Awesome video 👏🏼 I love my FX30. Maybe I’ll get another camera when I’ve actually created enough to actually have a reason to buy a bigger camera but this will more than suite my needs for quite some time and I don’t see myself getting rid of it even if I did buy a bigger camera.
The sony srw 9000, f3, f35, f55. They all had that super cinematic film look to em from the star wars line of cameras. The color science was only bad because we had the photography sensors. They finally merged em with the fx line.
Lol....the sensors are the same.
I couldn’t agree with you more, I recently sold my FX30 but released a video compared to the FX3 to shut down all the hate that APSC camera has received, it’s fantastic and I feel people focus on the super negative stuff and numbers but not on improving their craft and then blame the camera.
I only sold my FX30 because I moved to RED but I kind of miss it, consider testing the GH6 next.
Wow your footage looks reallyy nice Jake, I was thinking about swapping my fx30 for fx3. but nahhhh this video helped seal it. I noticed you were colour balancing from temp and tint. Today I was looking into colour balance and the RGB mixer was quite good in the from a colour balance perspective I was surprised with the results. The video was from Darren Mostyn.
Hey Jake, I recently picked up an essentially new Canon Eos R (at a ridiculous 100$) and am really excited to shoot short films as it’s a huge step up from any of my previous cams, but everyone complains about the crop factor (even though it’s 10bit clog) any workarounds for still getting really quality movie footage? Also do you think kitting it out is worth it?
Love the vids you are gonna blow up!!
This or the Lumix S5iix for a complete beginner. I haven't invested in any ecosystem yet. Love your channel btw, thanks
You can also "zoom to fit" on your video playback by clicking "z"
Great information here. Do you know if it's possible to use different capacity memory cards? Maybe use a 256 gb card in slot one, and a 128 GB card in slot two?
Go Blue!!!! 👀
Im stuck between this and the c200, dont know which one to pick cause they both seem like they would fit in a crew set pretty nice, what's everything think? Which one to pick over the other?
hi , don't mean to be rude on the contrary im interested and curious, but is there no place where you show your works such as a portfolio page or smth ? love the look you give in your videos!!
Was that Cavenders?
thanks u,can you tell me wahts ur color science setting ?
Why are you not disable the noise reduction in the menu?
How high would you bump up the shutter speed when planning on using Catalyst Browse?
i want to buy a camera that can do great photography and cinematography, do you have a recommendation?
are u recording with the fx30 rn
I'm a current ZV-E10 user. I like grading S-Log 3, it's fantastic to monitor from my phone, and a great little mirrorless body. When I upgrade I'll probably go to the FX3. I shoot primarily in small spaces, so it'll be nice to go wider without much barrel distortion.
I am starting to like my FX30 more than my RED Raven
At the beginning of the video I see you baked your own FX30. Would you be kind enough to share the recipe? Despite what chef Ramsey says wouldn't it be better to not cook it and have it RAW?
Question I am a newbie. How come you Frame is in decimals instead whole number like 24p
16 bit RAW?
How much many monies
If AF and IBIS aren't a priority in the way I shoot (manual lenses), why would I go for the fx30 when I can get the Blackmagic 6K fullframe for the same price (pretty ugly & less powerful battery but with a far better screen and no need for the XLR handle), or even the 6K Pro or G2?
Likewise, if you can buy an FX30, why would you want any of those other cameras. The only reason people are/were enamored with Blackmagic is that it was sold as a "cinema" camera to people with grandious ideas but not the income to actually compete with real pros.
@@Tugela60I'm in the process of getting a camera for studio work mostly. I looked at a lot of them, and ill probably get the fx30. It has everything I need, ans then some. I like I can get a cheap 18-50 f/2.8 sigma or tameron. I know I can get MFT lens cheaper, but not what I want in zoom with a constant apture. With out paying way more.
FX30 or the Black Magic 6k G2?
If you want AF then get the Sony. If you want color science and internal Raw 6k g2. If you don’t care or are unsure, then just pick your the gut favorite that feels like it meshes right with you! Years down the road you won’t regret getting started no matter which camera it was.
Nice video, thank you! :)
Maybe you know, but you can use the letter "Z" to switch back to 100% full screen, not the zoomed in one! :)
Btw, since the new firmware update, it has shutter angle.
Darn. wish'd you woulda talked about making money with this camera.
ibis, super 35, high dynamic range, pice, quality, good autofocus. That's why it's popular. sure the bmpcc6k has a better image, but the fx30 is a better run and gun camera. The bmpcc6k needs to be rigged out and even then it isn't as good for run and gunning. Bmpc cameras are more for like controlled settings.
It has a good image and great ergonomics, but it’s noisy asf. I had this camera, and sold it for aS5II X
Haha crazy, I just sold my S5ii for the fx30. I can’t deal with 4k60 crop. But each to there own
@@SharrodVisuals FX30 was one camera that I loved owning, but my need for a bigger and cleaner sensor and anger tools has forced me to swap systems. I will probably get the new blackmagic Pyxis too.
@@35mmdigitalcinema fairenough, I’m only a beginner and I needed a good 4k60 I cropped for real estate video
susbcribed only because you showed a color grading promo and I hope whenever you test new camera you push it through color grading and compare
internal false colors would be nice...
Nice video, but could you explain to me why some people tell me that id be better off keeping my a7iii instead of getting the FX30?
Yes but it’s at a very close price point with the zv-e1, if it would be significantly cheaper the fx30 would be the better choice.
You get superior image quality and sensor with the zv-e1 as much as it lacks so many features I think that’s the most important aspect in the end.
Horses for courses, i dont think a stop and half is worth the compromise in card slot count/quality, hdmi port, and reliability.
Shutter angle coming in September as well.
Bro i watched the vid and i was like ima check that out then saw the price..
Most filmmakers don’t need full frame. Classic film look is closer to aps-c anyway.
Why are You making videos for CRT monitors?
Arri has super 35 costs $100,000 + but FX30 $2000 can’t complain 😂
It is a great entry level with an easy upgrade path to the FX3, with the close ergonomics, mounting, buttons, functions, etc.. Easy transition when you can afford it.
entry level? we use 2 FX30s on set alongside a Venice. it was cheaper to buy 2 of them and 1 FX3. it's definitely a pro-level camera.
R: MARKETING
Ugh the fomo on this one is hitting me lol.
First 🎉
I do a lot of online corporate video editing, so I get a lot of projects from a whole host of cameras.
I know when a Sony FX30 has been used because the footage is usually really bad. Not at all because of the camera! It's the people using them!
I guess a lot of beginners get them because it's one of the best cameras for the money.
But the amount of shaky, over exposed, cranked shutter, poorly WB and badly framed footage Ive seen from these cameras has made me never want one! Haha!
Unless you have rapid motion on the screen, shutter speed is irrelevant. You can set it to anything faster than the frame rate as long as the exposure is correct.
What kind of sense does it make ?
You explain it's because of people (using it the improper way), then you go with "I don't want this camera.".
So, allow me to make it more understandable...
"But the amount of shaky, over exposed, cranked shutter, poorly WB and badly framed footage Ive seen from these cameras has made me never want one!"... no.
"But the amount of shaky, over exposed, cranked shutter, poorly WB and badly framed footage I've seen from these people, who call themselves camera operators, has made me want to send them to technical training, then operate this camera myself !"... YES !
Cringe title > Dislike
popular? not really
