Some ILME-FX30 cameras may not start up after installing the version 5.00 System Software (Firmware) update. As a precaution, we are suspending the update until further notice. (September 13, 2024)
Interesting… I couldn’t find this notice last week, I saw it for A7RV and the message I saw for FX30 didn’t mention cameras not starting, just that it was suspended because of the A7RV issue… Thanks for sharing - will take another look on Sony site for this
@@leo_hoang Sony Page: "You must first update to Ver. 1.05 before updating to the latest version (Ver. 5.00). If you try to update to version 5.00 directly, an error will occur."
Yeah - I saw this notice, this was part of their standard practice for updating but v5 has been removed and has reported issues with third party accessories and lenses
@@leo_hoangI saw that notice as well. Apparently they didn’t want a repeat of what happened to FX3 cameras going wonky after the recent firmware release. I’ve got two FX30 bodies, and I would rather have a fully functional camera over a bricked camera with the newest firmware lurking in its brain.
@@TheIkeRai I did a follow up video on this topic, but so far I haven’t heard of any cameras getting bricked, just a couple quirks if using third party kit… but still not worth the risk if not working 100% perfect
The new firmware v5.0 update dropped. But, unfortunately, it came with a lot of issues. I should have waited, but, I was anxious for the Shutter Speed addition. As soon as I updated my FX30, the camera popped up a note saying that I could not record in 4K DCI unless I used a CF Express card. The problem is, I was recording in 4K DCI with my v90 SD cards with no issues at all. Suddenly, with the update I can't. Makes no sense. Someone else reported their AF not working while recording. I tested my camera, and the AF on my FX30 worked fine while recording. Not sure why we would have different experiences with the same camera and update. Either way, I will have to wait for another update to fix these issues. BTW, earlier today, I chatted with Sony online and told them about my 4K DCI issue. They acknowledged that it shouldn't be a problem. They suggested I reset my camera back to factory defaults. Which would not remove the v5.0 update. Unfortunately, resetting the camera did not fix the 4K DCI issue. Hopefully, they'll drop a new update soon and fix these issues.
Ah! Good to know regarding DCI! A couple people have flagged to me third party items mo longer work. Batteries don’t read values or in some cases, even work! Third party lenses also don’t af properly etc… This would have been a big problem for me so I’m glad I didn’t update
Thanks for the video. As a wildlife and product videographer shutter angle is of no use to me so the update is irrelevant. The FX30 is a great camera though.
Thank you - keep me updated… it seems to be issues with third party batteries and lenses, so if you use all official Sony I think you’re fine… I use Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 so it would potentially cause me an issue
v5 is working for me just fine on my FX30. Sony retracted all the downloads for the firmware because they also released a firmware update for the a7r5 the same day and the a7r5 firmware was causing cameras to stop working so they took them all down just in case, but the issue was not with the FX3 or FX30 firmware. They just did it for precautions sake. Here is the official announcement Sony released: Important Notice An issue requiring investigation was found in the ILCE-7RM5 software released on the same day.

A couple people have flagged to me it’s third party batteries and lenses which now aren’t fully compatible with the camera… I do use a K&F USB-C battery as a dummy battery and Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 lens, so I’m glad I didn’t update just yet…
@leo_hoang I use Sigma 18-50mm lenses mostly. The after-market batteries never worked even before the update. I hope this update doesn't ruin my shoot! 😔
@@AWAShowme I use a K&F USB-C chargeable battery as a dummy battery in my FX30… and Sigma 18-50mm lens. On v4 everything is spot on… but if going to V5 interferes with this, I will hold onto v4.. shutter angle isn’t that much of a difference for me… I’m regularly breaking the shutter speed rules lol
@leo_hoang For sure. I agree with you. Just the other day, I was at a dimly lit wedding and had to use a variable shutter to get rid of banding. Also, the dji rs4 is only compatible with shutter speed mode. Hey, we should do a collaboration!
Yep! I’m sure it will be fixed at some point, but when the release happens again, I will hang tight before getting… might wait at least 5 days to be sure… but also to be fair, I’m sure Sony will be much more thorough on the next release…
I'm not entirely sure, but I heard you need to register either the user or the camera to update to the latest firmware. Try downloading the app, connecting it to the camera, and see if it allows you to download the V5 update. I may be wrong but it wont hurt to try.
It’s been confirmed now they have suspended it… a couple hours after posting this video I found a link elsewhere on their site stating it’s been suspended…
Updated my FX3 to version 6 (version 5 for FX30) before the download was removed. I'm having no issues at all so far, shutter angle is there, recording videos normally, taking photos like I usually do.
@@leo_hoang I use Sony batteries and lenses, but also use Sigma and Tamron. Does 3rd-party batteries and lenses have anything to do with the reason the update was taken down?
@@vailant from what I’ve seen in my comments section, third party items are affected. Third party batteries don’t register power levels correctly or they don’t work at all, and lenses don’t AF properly… they have specified what third party brands or lenses, but because I use Sigma 18-50mm and K&F battery for my fx30, I won’t be updating until I hear we are all good… it would be such a shame if they remove third party support - what third party items do you use?

@@koredeprecious7987 hey sorry, I’ve just checked and the firmware was deleted after install … sorry I couldn’t help… hopefully we don’t have to wait long for the fixed v5
I did update to the version 5 even did a video on my channel download link in the pinned comments if you need it but I’ve been using it without issues.
Thanks for sharing - I’m going to wait for Sony to fix the bugs. Apparently this firmware is not playing nice with third party batteries and lenses. I use a USB-C K&F battery as a dummy battery along with Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 lens… so not a good idea for me. Thanks for sharing
Very strange - there’s definitely something not quite right with this update so I would hang tight for v5.1 - keep me posted if you find any other bugs
The update to my FX30 basically broke AF on all my lenses, adapted don't work at all, the Sony 18-105 sometimes works but defaults to MF at random times, the Viltrox 1.4 primes have been the best but still are on MF at camera start up. Also my playback is doing weird stuff... I don't know how to explain it but is seems to do something different every time I use it... and I need it to LiveU to one client so thats just annoying af.
I downloaded it but have not installed it yet, I think I will wait for another version or see if anybody has had any problems. Sony should be held reliable for these mishaps, what about the people that did install it right away? The microphones sound exactly the same by the way..
Lucky you didn’t pull the trigger… but at the same time, I’ve seen an article that they suspended the update because they had A7RV’s have issues with their update. The FX30 was just suspended as a precaution… Thanks for the feedback on the mics… one is £90 and the other is £15!
Same issues. It is so frustrating and I can’t even get it through the creators app. The creators app shows that my camera is connected but I can’t do anything with it. I almost threw the camera and the iPhone out the window. Any other camera only works perfectly every update for some reason. Sony is always giving me trouble with updating.
It seems V5 has had some issues so they have somewhat quietly retracted it… they have quietly announced it’s no longer available but due to issues they found on A7RV firmware… but I have seen other comments on my video where others have had issues with new FX30 firmware… so lucky for us we hadn’t updated yet
Great video. I have a question. I have the FX30 and I have a 256 gb v90 card. I also have a surface pro 7 and I want to edit my videos. Can I get a memory card reader and edit my videos that way or should I get a new computer and a memory card reader?
As the other user commented above, you can transfer directly from camera to surface pro. But I would imagine it not editing the smoothest on that machine depending what resolution and codec you’re using on your camera…. By all means try the above, but you might find you hit other limitations like storage capacity, render times etc… then you might be going down the road of a new computer anyway… But start with the above suggestion and go from there… let me know how you get on

They want you to download their app
It’s actually removed from there also it seems… I’ve had a few people let me know it’s gone from there also…
No wonder I couldn't download smh
It’s honestly frustrating that they didn’t make it more obvious it’s been suspended…
