- The best camera is the camera that meets all of your needs. For me the best camera right now is the Sony FX30. In today's video we're talking about why I bought the Sony FX30 in 2024 instead of the ZV-E1. Which is one of the many cameras I looked into before making this purchase. Sony ZV-E1, Sony A7Cii and Lumix S5ii were on the list of potential cameras to buy. The Sony FX30 even though being APS-C still won me over!

What are some things you want to know about the Sony FX30?
Make a video on your cameras settings!
I really think the photography and videography community needs to get out of the mindset of a camera that's been out for a year and a half is old. Cameras have much longer lifecycles than other tech like phones.
I 100% agree! New doesn't always mean the best. Sure some of these AI features in these newer cameras are nice but I'd still prefer having the essentials. The A7siii, A7iv, R5 are all perfect examples of this!
I’m literally still shooting on the a7sII. Which is turning 10 years old I think. Works amazing. Only issue is the autofocus and I use manual anyway
This is how they mislead other people to waste money.
It’s wild af😂
I went through this same dilemma last May. Here is my opinion to help those also debating. I picked up the ZV-E1 because I shot full frame for the last 10 years and was not about to go back to APSC. I also could not justify the price of the A7siii or FX3 for my small channel. Then I borrowed a friend's FX30 to compare them. The zv-e1 completely destroyed the FX30 in low light, focus capabilities and dynamic stabilization. The zv-e1 is so clean. I made it through the summer without any overheating issues. I recently ran it indoors for 2hrs 30 minutes for an interview, stopping only to change the battery once (A7iii was the B Cam which unfortunately shuts off every 30min due to its recording limit, but no limit on the zv-e1). No issues(24fps). All of the videos on my channel since last May have been on the ZV-E1. That thing is like a Swiss Army video camera to the solo shooter. One video last summer, I was walking around randomly interviewing people. I put it in intelligent auto and it automatically focused on everyone, adjusting aperture automatically as people moved in and out of frame to talk. I recently purchased the $30 Ulanzi fan to keep in my bag just in case. I wouldn't mind the FX30 if I already had APSC glass and didn't shoot in low light often but if you only have full frame glass and want the best possible performance and video quality, the ZV-E1 is the only consideration. The reason the FX30 is "Netflix" approved and the ZV-E1 isn't, is only due to the fact that the FX30 can output raw video, ZV-E1 cannot.
I agree! The ZVE1 only has heating issues for extreme heat and 4k60 for extended periods of time. Mine has never overheated on me on 4k24
the dual card slot is ESSENTIAL to me for pro gigs why I went with the fx30 as second cam , sure walking around interviewing people lie you say you do , no big deal your card shits the bed but if I'm getting paid to do someones wedding in NEED to know if one card shits out I have another card also recording !! I wanted the zv e1 bad but that was a no go for me about the cards , a lot of people told me that their cameras are not overheating so I don't think that is a big deal
@@Tonellacam yeah good point. I forgot to mention that. If I was doing work that someone else paid me to do, I would have went with the Fx3 or A7siii. I was actually about to buy the FX3 but couldn't justify the extra cost for what I do at this point. I create mini documentaries and my channel is monetized but I only answer to myself. I wouldn't risk a hired gig with the ZV-E1. A dual card camera (D610), saved my ass on a photo shoot years ago when one of the cards corrupted. That is the only time in 10 years that I have had that problem but that's enough for me. But personally, if I ever decided to take hired video production gigs (and take all the fun out of what I do like I did with photography lol), I still wouldn't step back to APSC. Maybe if I had good crop glass sitting around but I left APSC in 2013 and don't see any good reason to go back.
I've only been doing my hustle for 2 years so this is my start with apsc , I wanted the fx3 and just couldn't afford it , then I needed a second cam and again was like damn, I bought a car recently and couldn't justify getting an fx3 once again because it being double the price, I did however get a couple ff lenses knowing that someday I will get the fx3 or fx3 v2 when it comes out , bu for now been using Sony 24-70 gm on one of my fx30 and Sony 16-55 apsc lens on the other @@runningintohistory
Thank you for your feedback! I was debating on which one to get but since im only just a filmmaker / TH-camr I needn’t worry about filming commercial paid gigs etc etc
A year and a half is now old?
Cameras are not smartphones.
I bought the ZVE1 end of 2023 as a b-cam for my FX6 😅 the small ZVE1 is perfect for holidays too and I really love it 😍
Happy New Year! Great pickup btw🥂
Happy New Year! 🍾
I don't do super long recordings and I have never had any issues. I love the low light and full frame on it so I might use a fan if I ever do a very long recording (or external recording).
Great pick enjoy the camera dude!
I think so such a beast for the price!
ZV-E1 was my choice because of my full frame lens collection. It was my B-cam to my A7III. I rented A7SIII for a wedding and all did great. 4K24 with the ZV-E1 lasted for the hour during the ceremony. Recorded on and off at 4K60 during the reception for 4 hours with the Tilta fan.
Happy new year sir, I would like to say that it would be better if you change the text colour to black or something contrasting to the wall.😅
Happy new year to you too! I made the text white on purpose so that the camera pops! I wanted the text to kind've blend in!
*I bought mine because it's not a hybrid camera, it's a straight video camera and I have the ZV-E10 as my B-Roll Camera and sometimes my Main Camera*
Hi, Lombardo! Which lut pack do you use in your videos?
came across this vid at the perfect start of the year, can't decide if i want an FX30 or ZVE1 for a B cam to go with my A7IV mostly for gym content and vlogging
I got the A7IV too as my main camera but I needed a second, and after checking everything out, the FX30 just checked all the boxes for me!
@@StefanoLombardoYT how is it performing on low light for you bro and what lens?
@@21visualzI went through the same thing last year. Ended up keeping the ZV-E1 and sending the FX30 back. Years of shooting full frame and step back down to apsc? Not for me. The ZV-E1 is better than the FX30 in low light considering noise. The zv-e1 is just sooo clean. The zv-e1 made it through summer shooting without any overheating. I recently shot a 2hr 30min interview swapping out the battery quckly in between with no issues. This was indoors at 24fps. I don't shoot long in 120 so never an issue there. I did recently pick up the $30 fan for it as a precautionary measure.
@@runningintohistory in addition with Tilta fan, can't complain with the performance.
The zve1 doesn’t really have over heating issues . There been an update and it was never that bad to begin with
Honestly, the age of the camera doesn't matter. It doesn't. What's more important is that it does the things you love, the way you love to do them and it fits into youre prefered workflow, and you achieve the results you want. Same with computers and graphics cards... There's no need to upgrade them if they do what you need. An exception would be gamers who wish to play the latest titles at their highest quality etc.
Sony gear sells fast if you are interested in even selling sony gear!, I've been rocking the S5II since last year july and wowie this camera is a beast.
yeah definitely a solid pick
A solid camera for the price!
I cant do Aps-C anymore. Buying into that ecosytem is a handicap. Plus by now, Im sure you know that this camera is very noisy and doesnt do well with low light.
cap
ZV-E1 all the way ! Much better sensor
Two different cameras, ZV-E1 was hard to pass up on but the overheating issues I just couldn’t, needed a much more reliable camera
@@StefanoLombardoYT I've my ZV-E1 since July. Went to Japan (very hot summer), shot 3 weddings in France. I've never experienced any overheating issue what so ever. It's lightweight and reliable. FX30 is a great camera too, but doesn't fit my needs in low light situation and 4K120fps full frame
Why didn't you also consider the A7siii or FX3, price?
I checked out both the A7Siii and FX3, and they're solid choices!! But since I often crop my wide videos into vertical for socials, the 12MP from these cameras doesn't cut it for me. The FX3's low-light capabilities with its full-frame sensor are great, but I didn't see the point in spending extra just for that. If I needed a main camera, I'd probably go with the FX3. But since it's my b-cam, the FX30 has all I need in a camera at a better price!
@@StefanoLombardoYT I know the a7iv's 4k is 7k oversampled and the fx30's 4k is 6k oversampled.
Other than that, you can still get 1080p vertical crops from The FX3's 12mp 4k. Isn't 4k about 8.3 MP?
Can you further explain how it doesn't cut it? Does oversampling benefits that much when it ends up on a compressed 1080p short?
@@professionaI_yapper he said it doesn’t justify spending the extra money for that
@@chrisj940 My question wasn't about price.
the real question is the fx30 or the a6700?
Dont buy the 6700 just had to send it back because of overheating issues. Swapping it for a FX30 instead!
@@Acidman030 how long did it take for it to overheat in your usage? is 4k 24p unusable?
lol. Kids, I’m over here using a FS7 and still loving it.
I bought a camera that’s a year old. I’m still using a camera that’s 10 years old. 🤓
Why? You are confused, that's why. Of course the zv-e1 is infinitely better.
I also did the Same. Why ? built in FAN
2024 fx30 😂 this year arrived on my state lol
Cause You Want To Use Sirui Lens 😁
Good decision my brother
Thanks for watching!
Bruhhhhh, FX30 is about 11 months old, not 1.5 years old. 00:02
I don’t know what year your living in but the FX30 came out in September of 2022 😂
@@StefanoLombardoYT sorry, sorry my bad
Yes because an 18 month old camera is soooooo old. Gotta love TH-camrs 😂
