  • Hello Everyone, Today I have the chance to review my FX3 that I've had for the past few months. I ended up trading my Sony ZV-E1 plus cash on my end to get my hands on a good deal to own the FX3. Watch my video to find out what it is! Thank you for watching and supporting and any feedback is always welcomed.

    love the video dawg! new sub. ive had a super similar journey to you camera wise: lumix G7 > Sony a6500 > A7iii > A7iv. Just picked up the A7iv and have been loving it bc I needed a good hybrid, but def see myself down the line getting either an FX3 or waiting for FX3ii to drop. Great video though, appreciated your storytelling and great shots! looking forward to more content!

    Hey man love this, I’m in the exact same situation, I want the fx3 but worried the zve1 is better for travel / carrying around with my XT5. Was the overheating issue on the zve1 that bad? I probably will shoot 4K 24 in bursts of 5-10 minutes , but will most likely keep the camera turned on not recording for 20-30 mins will I be able to do that?

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před 11 dny +1

      I think ZV-E1 can last in short burst for sure, just make sure to put the temperature settings to high & have the screen popped out so it doesn’t keep heat close to the internals! besides that I think it should be good unless your in heat with the sun hitting the camera constantly other than that it should be good!

    Cause there is still nothing better out there than the FX3 and the A7S3... I myself got the A7S3 and the A7IV and they are absolute MONSTERS! Got all GM lenses also so you really made a great decision to get this Camera! This Camera is gonna be still the best for years to come!!! >;)))

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před měsícem

      totally agree with you! even if newer camera come out the a7siii/fx3 will be viable for years to come. Glass is especially helpful with image quality and that’s why I myself have a hand full of GM lenses also lol

    Dope video !! I thought all those cameras had the same sensors??

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před měsícem

      technically the ZV-E1 & FX3 do have the same sensor but the main reason I decided to upgrade to the FX3 was the long form content that I needed to film, the ZV-E1 wouldn’t last a full hour if I needed it especially in Texas heat lol regardless the ZV-E1 is still a great camera & for the price too!

    • @JosephRossPhotography
      @JosephRossPhotography Před měsícem +1

      Oh yea definitely the FX3 is a beast bro great choice!! It’s been said across CZcams that they have been using the same sensor for years. I have the Canon R5C and I was definitely jealous when I seen my friends every camera has its pros and cons!!

    I am doing video on A7Cii with 2470 gmii, want to get fx3 for standalone video purposes, will it really make difference in comparison with A7Cii ?

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před 18 dny +1

      I think it really depends, I think the a7cii does a fantastic job of recording video, i’d only suggest FX3 if you need longer term recording or if you need pro features like time code or the top handle. a7cii is enough to record great videos!

    • @IRFAN-po5sz
      @IRFAN-po5sz Před 18 dny +1

      @@officalmattknows I am so thankful to you, in fact I am not professional, I just kept A7Cii and 2470gmii just for fun during weddings, birthdays or when we all family members go outside etc. So you mean quality of the image of 4k footage will be the same. No significant improvements in case of FX 3, ?

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před 18 dny +1

      @IRFAN-po5sz I mean the fx3 and a7cii have different sensors, if we get technically there’s definitely differences in them but for what you’re saying you’d use it for I think the a7cii and 2470 gmii is more than enough! and you won’t be disappointed with it, some of the benefits the FX3 has would be maybe better rolling shutter performance, low light performance, & no overheating, buuuutttt you wouldn’t be shooting faster sports so fast camera movements won’t be something you’re doing often, & the lowlight performance is really good on fx3 but the a7cii has dual base isos on slog3 (800 & 3200) and I think 3200 is more than enough! good luck and have fun with your camera!

    Just switched from Nikon to Sony last July and bought the A1 for - both - stills and video… the A1 overheated on my 1st shoot in a cool studio!
    Bought an FX3 this last March and had my 2nd in studio shoot… A1 overheated while the FX3 kept chugging along.
    A1 has some nice features but it’s missing the FAN for SERIOUS video work and I’d rather have two FX3s but I’ll probably hold off until FX3ii / FX4

    • @officalmattknows
      @officalmattknows  Před 24 dny +1

      wow i’m surprised the A1 was overheating! FX3 is unmatched with the fan for video work! glad you’re enjoying your FX3 i’d say FX3ii will come out maybe next year I know later this year they are bringing out another FX-line camera

    • @georgerady9706
      @georgerady9706 Před 24 dny +1

      Yup! The 1st was somewhat forgivable as I was trying to shoot 8K over HDMI to get bigger quality 4K video on my Ninja (as Gerald Undone suggested) 🔥 in mere minutes!
      The 2nd shoot was 20 minutes of continual shooting and then it started 🔥 and we had to let it cool down… took about an hour to sort itself out.. and we finished the shoot.
      I should say - this was on the 2nd day of the shoot - on the 1st day we had longer breaks between shots and the A1 has a chance to cool down… so no issues.
      And - yes - shooting in CF Express with HDMI out to the Ninja… but only using the Ninja as a monitor! Not a recorder (which a Sony Tech suggested to only record the monitor and not - both - External and Internal at the same time. But - putting out the HDMI signal seems to be “the straw that broke the A1’s back” Very disappointed for a $6.5K camera!

      @officalmattknows  Před 24 dny
