- Need a Steadicam Operator? www.johnfrystea...
The FX9 is a full frame camera, so coming from an FS7 I thought I'd see what lenses I already owned that would work with the full frame chip, and see the results of the widest on Steadicam!
Equipment seen: Sony PXW-FX9 camera kit from www.Maddogs.tv
- Sony 28-135mm f4 OSS servo zoom lens amzn.to/2HnhuWB
- Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 Art lens amzn.to/37nyMha

briliant john only the best person with the fx9
That 10-18mm is insane! very very minor loss in sharpness around the edges. Impressive stuff!
Great work, John!-we have a Sony FX9 and love it!
I've always been jealous of your Steadicam, John! ;-)
Hi!!! Nice report... Try to find the "Soviet MIR 20m" m42 mount!!! it's a dream cine look.
I have the set MIR lenses; 28mm and 37mm and it's magic the cinelook that they give!!! I can imagine This lenses in the fantastical FX9!!!
Than for sharing your knowledge.
Steadicam for ever ❤️
Always interested to see a Steadycam in use as I'm working on a homebrew one, slowly solving the problems.
thank you for sharing
thank you!!!Very interesting!!!
This video was great- very informative, good selection of lenses and cool interior shots. Does the new sony 16-35mm pro lens interest you at all? That would be a beast on the FX9!
I did look at it, but plumped for the Sigma 14-24mm f2.8 instead for a bit more wide, & for less money.
while testing the zoom range when you can confidently say that you are happy the image circle covers enough of your sensor its important do go through different apertures too.
All the results are in the video, so you can decide for yourself what you’re happy with.
Hey John nice review of the lens! I have a very small TH-cam channel of my own. I was wondering if you will be up to doing a interview about steadicams and just demonstrate how they work and stuff like that thank you! Damon, q
Thanks Damon! Yes sounds fun, drop me an email john@fryfilm.com
Does the FX9 have S35 mode like the FX6? If so, would be interesting to test the 10-18 in 'native' mode.
Yes it does.
What are your impression of the FX9, perhaps a review?
I can do one if you’d like, but aren’t there enough others already?
@@TheSteadicamMan I think your unique perspective would be helpful for those that would have an interest in perhaps buying the came-just an idea! BTW, here's one of my music videos which is very psychedelic (retro) with me doing some Jimi Hendrix styled guitar playing on this song I wrote and produced!
For me the Sigmar DG DN 24-70 F2.8 is also a good lens for steadicam Operation
It is, I have one, but it's often not wide enough.
so this is an archer sled with an aero 30 arm and vest?
Yes, Archer 1 sled modified & upgraded by me & Seb-J, A30 arm and it’s actually a Flyer LE vest which I like because of how comfortable & low profile it is.
Steadicams > electronic gimbals
For when using AF, i would rather use a GM lens(even the new FE C 16-35 from Sony) than fidget around with any third party lens or even with metabones.
Agreed.
What would be a good stedicam to get for this camera? I have a glidecam 4000 but the fx9 seems way to heavy for it.
Buy a Steadicam M2
Hey john in a video you made. You were showing your mody version where the efp steadicam could come in dynamic balance where dit you get the kit for IT and can i buy IT ?? 🙂
I designed it myself & put it together with the help of a local blacksmith. Pretty straightforward actually.
Hi, I'd like to ask permission to use a very short footage of this video: the part where you're moving a bit with the Steadicam for my video lesson. The video will be uploaded on TH-cam as unlisted and is going to be exclusive to my students. I will also place your channel name. I hope I can get your approval.
Yes ok, send me a link!
@@TheSteadicamMan sure. Is there any way I can send the link without showing it to everyone? Haha
Which steadicam is that?
It’s a modified Archer 1. I have the original yoke on it usually.
