I'm a simple man... when I see that a new camera is released, I go to TH-cam and find Gerald. It's that simple.
I usually watch all the Canadians first. :P (I'm from Europe, so no bias here)
Agree
I’m a bit different. I go to xhamster and find Geraldine.
I am still playing with the original Nikon Z6 shooting ProRes over HDMI on a Ninja V but I’m thinking of getting the Sony FX30 or FX3 (since Sony makes the video chip for both and I ASSUME the color science would be the same… ?) but I wonder which Sony would produce output similar to the Nikon Z6 or does a Ninja V for each make the moot???
I am simpler than you. I watch whatever TH-cam suggested on new camera equipment. That’s why I am late to the party on commenting this video. This video shown up after I watched several Sony A6700 comparisons videos.
Thanks for the review, as always! I know it's been a year, but congrats on the birth of your son!! As a parent of a 20 year old son and 17 year old daughter, I completely understand the challenges of juggling parenting and passion projects. I chose to set aside a career as a touring musician to be more present as a dad. So, thanks for making time for us and these videos!
Congrats Gerald with your newborn baby son! Enjoy the journey! My son is 8yo and he makes me smile everyday how much he’s learning and growing.
Thanks for the review of the FX30. Short, high quality, and to the point.
As always, the ONLY review of a new product you need to watch! Great job, Gerald and congratulations on the new addition to your family.
Congratulations on the baby boy!!! That’s beautiful to hear
Congratulations on the newest addition to your family. And thank you for putting this review together despite the challenges of being a new dad.
Congratulations for the newborn! Best wishes of health and prosperity to you and your family.
Congrats on the baby! So happy for you guys.
CONGRATULATIONS on the birth of your son!!!!!!!! What a lucky kid to have such a cool dad.
Congrats on the new addition to the family and thank you for managing to put out another high-quality review 👏👏
CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 to your new born!!! Thanks for taking a look at the rolling shutter. Great review.
Glad I found this channel. This review is right to the point and not overproduced. Subscribed.
Congratulations Gerald! Being a dad is the absolute best 🔥 excited for you
Congratulations (belated) on the baby boy :) And thanks for these videos! I just found your channel - and I love how wholesome and authentic you are!
My son is just over 2 weeks old, and keeping up with photo/video work is... Well, I used to say things like "tiring" or "exhausting," but they don't feel applicable now. In any case, you look remarkably composed, and the video review is still top notch -- congrats and good work!
3:46 Throwing shade to Sony for not including focus breathing comp for in A1 and A7s3. ✊
If anyone can get this pushed through it's you daddio!
Congrats on becoming a dad, Gerald! I can relate to what you're saying concerning the creation of TH-cam videos while growing into the role of a father as I'm facing the same challenge right now. But although it is very challenging, it is also the most rewarding thing in life, so make sure to enjoy it as much as you can! ❤️
Congrats on the baby, Gerald. Life. Changing! :)
Congrats on the little one. Enjoy this and all times to come as much as possible. It's better than kicking yourself later for being too busy..
Congratulations on your new addition to your family!!
Congratulations on the new baby Gerald :) The next chapter in your life has officially begun... Great review as always 👊
Despite the actual reason for the video on the FX30.....a Big Congratulations to you and your amazing partner on the addition to the family. Yes, sleep will be an issue for a while, but your pride in the little one overcomes all. Please post a photo of the little one when you both are ready. I am expecting purple pajamas !
Congrats on the baby, Gerald JR. Is becoming UNDONE, it's Crazy!!!
Congrats on the New Baby, I love your videos! This is a perfect second camera along side my FX3.
Congratulations with your new family upgrade. Stellar review as always even though you might not get much sleep these days :)
Congratulations Gerald, you look incredibly well rested! It only gets better (and easier!) I promise. Best of luck!
Congratulations to you all on the baby boy, many things will change, but all of it worth it!
Congratulations-don’t worry about us. Your content is always worth waiting for🎉🙏🏿✌🏿🙌🏿
Congratulations on the baby, Gerald!!!
I started my TH-cam channel when my boy was born, when I watch those videos I realize I was just a sleep deprived man who was more documenting my decent into madness than camera reviews. You are still killing it. Congrats fatherhood is the best, until your kid tells you to stop taking pictures of them all the time.
Congratulations on the baby boy. 🎉 God bless you guys!
Gerald, great congratulations on new one in family! Wishing you nights of sleep. 💛🙏🏽
Awesome, Our baby boy should be here this Monday. Congrats Bro!
Mang, i'm so jelly of filmmakers today. Great APS-C for a great price! Love the review Gerald and I would love to own this FX30 soon.
Congrats on the new baby!!!!
Congrats on the baby! That’s so exciting!
That’s so cool that you’ve branched out into camera reviews; I am impressed, you do them well!
Congrats gerald for being a father!!!! Keep doing what you!!
Congrats on the baby boy! Great review as always.
Congrats on the new baby🎉👏👍
congorats Gerald on the new little one! [oh..and lovely review as always]
Literally got an email and was like let’s see if Gerald reviewed it. Opened TH-cam BAM first video in my feed
First: Congratulations on your new addition!
2nd It's nice to see robust options for different budgets. I have the a7siii and I think I have a dead pixel in the evf. And I haven't had the camera for more than six months :/
Congratulations Gerald on the new baby!
Starting out on this journey I get sooooo much bad advice which costs more money. I appreciate your down to earth assessments that let me know I have made the right choice with my equipment. Great review!
Excellent review, Gerald! And with a newborn... thank you.
and congratulations on your new Baby!
I think this is a very solid move by Sony and definitely going to sell out fast to the same general market the a7IV hit. Awesome review as always man!
Loved my a6500 back in the day...but that 34ms readout was BRUTAL. Great to see Sony willing to make an APS-C sensor with good rolling shutter.
I am still using my A6500 with sigma 56mm and 16mm. Should I upgrade to this ?
This is almost a perfect camera for multi-cam setups where you don't want to spend too much but have a good clean image. I can also see this acting as a popular B-Cam for the A7S III, FX3 or a7 IV. In 6000 USD, you can get 2 of these and 1 of the a7 IV bodies. And use the lenses amongst them commonly. Thanks for the detailed review as always, Gerald :)
Congratulations on the baby🎉
Been back and forth regarding this camera for a while now. Thank you for the always convincing review :)
Congrats 🥳 👶 🎉! I noticed the magenta tint in another video and thought it was just me. Thanks for affirming my observation lol. While I know how advanced Sony mirrorless has been over the years, the one giant thing that hinders me from switching over is the colors. I’m sure you can tweak the colors later having recorded in log, but I work with different cameras. I don’t think Sony would be a fit at work that our field cameras are Canon camcorders. Don’t get me wrong, these cameras are tempting, but the colors are problem when having to shell out videos asap. If only we had up-to-date workstations and a bigger budget for newer cameras, I’m sure we’d have Sony gear, not a Canon 80d and our camcorders to record events with. We have a mishmash of equipment and somehow make due 🤷♂️. Enjoy your detailed videos. Congrats again becoming a father! Savor these moments when they’re babies because they grow up fast 😊
Dude, I love the look of your studio. Great review as well!
congrats on fatherhood, gerald!! you've been my camera review dad since i got into this hobby. :D i hope you're getting some rest
Congrats on your baby!
Congrats with the baby! :)
Great review! Thank you for posting it. Also yeah new baby and continue with content creation is a wild ride. Congrats!
My subscription inbox just exploded, watching Gerald's first!
Congrats on the new baby!!!!
Congrats on the new baby boy!
Congrats on the new baby boy Gerald
The review we all were really waiting for!
Congrats on the baby boy!
congrats for the new baby
I've been waiting for a camera JUST LIKE THIS for years! I still love my Lumix S5 and I've been using that for a project with my friends, but kind of in that train where I want something a little lighter, and I've always hoped Sony should give up something APS-C that can at least do 10-bit video. I WANT that amazing autofocus. I am gonna have to start saving for this.
grat reviwe as always gerald! thanks for your time and quality
I love how these cameras are video oriented, no viewfinder makes it so much cleaner especially if you plan on using an external monitor you can mount it on top and it’ll still look good.
I still shoot photos so I’m the future I’d love a fx3 and a separate camera for photos but for the meantime I think I’m going to try to buy a Sony a7siii
I respect Sony for releasing products with their best tech at good prices. Not worried about not putting certain specs just to avoid “competing with their older models”
Congrats on the new baby you have! I won't complaint about the quality well actually your review is always 5/5. :D
Camera Conspiracies is gonna have a field day with this one! Also, congrats on the new baby!
Was planning on an a7c to acompany my a74, but now I know what I’m going for instead. And it’ll be new and much cheaper than the a7c!,!!!!! Such an amazing product!
Congrats on the little one. I realize I'm a little late, but happy 1st birthday(ish) Mini-Gerald!
Congratulations Gerald!
Congrats on the kid Gerald!! Love the content....
so pumped for a camera review!!
congratulations on your baby!
Great review, Gerald. Thanks for all your great work.
Thank you for the detailed and friendly review of the FX30.
Congratulation on the new BOY!!
Makes me happy to see that you also include camera conspiracies views into you video. Love both of u guys!! Thx for the work
Welcome to the world, Baby Undone!
I hope we'll see that new APS-C sensor in future cameras from them. (An APS-C sensor in an A7 or A9 series body would be really cool, I think.)
This was one of the first reviews I watched before I purchased my FX30. I love the colors I get shooting in S-Log3 and grading in Davinci Resolve, using the Color Space Transform.
I've been using this camera for video projects at my 9 to 5, but I'm going to use it on a professional gig next week. I love this camera. It's a major upgrade for me coming from the T7i.
congrats on the baby Gerald!! Welcome to the Dad club :)
Finally - this looks perfect for me. Thanks, Gerald!
Congratulations!!! Another great review!!! Just started my tech review channel with my Sony A7IV and was a bit bummed when I saw this FX30 (I think FX2 would of been a better name lol) announced but I think I prefer full frame over apsc anyways but again great video!!!
Thank you so much for this review, straight to the point, quick and intelligent!
Congrats on baby, beautiful camera
Even though sometimes it's obvious but i would love it if mention the lens mount options for everycamera and what to chose with every camera, and what is available and not available.
But thank you anyway, cause your reviews and information you give is always the best and the most clear.
For someone like me who had just upgraded to A7iv from a6500, and was thinking of liquidating APS-C glass, & getting a FX3 & slowly invest into FF glass- this might save me money now, as I will get the FX30, use it as a bcam, and save several thousands! I am stoked.
Ordered one! This will be perfekt for our steadycam rigg.
Congrats on the baby God bless you guys
congrats on the baby boy!
Thanks for the Vlog test, really liking how the 11mm with active looks.
Congrats on the new kid, and thanks again for the best overview on the web. I see the camera has a 1:1 mode in 4K 120, does that mode exists with 24/40/60? Thanks in advance.
Best review on this camera. You are the man!
Thank you for this review, and congratulations!!
Congrats on the baby.
Congratulations Gerald!!
i don't think i need to watch another video, I'm already sold
