The atomos Ninja V+ is the key to unlocking the FX6. Pipe your audio into the Ninja, set your frame delay, and leave it alone. Use AndyCine lunchboxes in conjunction with Samsung SSDs for fast and cheap storage. Ditch that ugly top handle and I would also ditch that monstrosity of a V-Mount adapter and switch to using Core NANO U98 6600mAh batteries. Sure, if you usually roll with V-Mount batteries I get that it's nice to not have to worry about another battery in your kit, but the battery notch they carved out in the FX6 is so huge that you can toss a long-lasting dependable battery in there. These changes will considerably slim down the profile and weight of the camera. I often toss this setup on a gimbal and run around an event like a mad man all day and it simply performs without wearing out my arms.
Here I am again, watching a Kofi video about a camera I can’t afford in the next 5 years😂 great job brother🙌
If you can't afford it, RENT (if you have sharegrid or close to a rental house) :) but maybe for the projects where you need it!
I kept telling myself that for years until I learned about visualization. Post a picture of the Sony FX6 in every room and visualize yourself filming with it each morning and night before you wake and sleep. Make you that you add "intention" to this, but most importantly "action". Ask yourself, what is it that's holding you back from getting this camera? Remove all obstacles that stand in your way and don't procrastinate. It worked for me, and I just bought a Sony FX6 3 weeks ago. I know you were just being sarcastic, but thought I would share anyways. By the way, your work is dope!
@@audreyalbafilms I need a photo of a house full of fx6’s on the walls 🔥
If you can’t afford you don’t need it, if you need it you will buy it. I just got a killer deal on a used one with 112 hours.
Electronic VND, AF, shoulder operation, lens selection, low light are the top five reasons (in descending order) to get and keep this camera for the next five years.
Cannot wait for that next fx-line camera.... much want.
Same!!
I've had the FX6 for a year and I totally agree the 12800 ISO. I wish a third base if ISO 4000 was added. Another thing that gets to me that I haven't seen anyone talk about is the SD Card slot!! When I have a v-mount on it such a hassle to do a card swap.
Yes a triple native iso cam would be phenomenal. Hopefully with the new c400 drop, Sony’s next cam will allow for something like that
@@B-Moye C80 definitely looking enticing vs the FX6
@@videotuotannot2693 yeah now with that new release, absolutely
I’ve got an fx6 now. Absolutely love it!
Hope you’re enjoying.
Kofi coming in clutch with these long term reviews and retrospectives. Keep it up brother.
Thanks homie 🫡🫡🫡
I've had the FX6 since 2021 and I LOVE IT.
Would love to see what a Mark II would offer!
SAME HERE haha honestly there isnt much to improve on, but since the Burano came out, I'm sure what ever they do will be great!
@@KofiYeboah I hope the FX3II and and FX6 II will have open gate 60fps.
Same ! But hopefully with the same shutter readout
Same. And, internal XOCN LT like they have on the Burano. 😜
Honestly, with my FX3 I map a quick button in Cine EI so every time I press it, iso alternated from 800 to 12800. Literally one tap of a button. And if my other hand is already on the nd filter it makes getting that slight change in exposure that much easier. Tap + rotate. It takes me all of 1.5 seconds. I can’t imagine the fx6 doesn’t have that capability too
It does ! Imo I think 12,800 is a bit high and I usually have to pull ND back which I don’t miss
So far the FX6 is great but one flaw I cannot get over is the fact that the option to fast forward / rewind or select a certain time of the playback is so bad. Which is interrupting the workflow a lot whenever on a project and a client asks for a playback, you cannot simply scroll through specific time of the clip it seems like.
Kofi with an FX6. Feels nostalgic.
😂
My next camera will be the FX9 MKII but I'm not in a rush to be honest..I'm still really happy with my FX6!!!
Its hard to be upset with it (outside of the top handle. I will die on this hill)
I just picked up the FX6 and the FX3! Can't wait to get stuck in with them! Thank you for the vid 🤙🏻
Anytime !
Nah the lack of a 3.5 mm jack is insane
It’s a needed improvement lol
Got my fx6 coming at the end of this month. Im excited outside of no sound in 4k 120 which is the dumbest thing but still looking forward to it.
You’ll enjoy it! Congrats !
I'm still trying to save up for an FX3 haha. Great video as always!
And thank YOU for getting all the angles on BTS!
Great commentary as usual. As you said, the lack of a 3.5mm audio jack is the one thing that has stopped me from looking at the FX6 as a choice. If I can't get scratch audio when running and gunning, it makes post production a lot more difficult. Especially for low budget filmmakers like myself. Thanks for the drop. Always fascinating.
It’s the only thing that eats away at me all the time 😞
fx6 has built in mics for scratch, or you can use a short shotgun.
@@eirikskarstein9964 I read his comment wrong (half wrong) you are right there IS a built in mic, just wish you could have proper audio without the handle
@@KofiYeboahyes, its only with the handle yes that is correct
@@eirikskarstein9964 Thanks for the clarification. 😎👍
We just shot day one of a week long production for a corporate doc with Sony FS7. 🙄 So yeah, it’s still worth getting. I’m a member of the ROI camera society. That said the C400 looking like my next system.
I’d say hold out tik least fall 🙏🏾
@@KofiYeboah I only went Sony because canon is always canoning, if that makes sense; but the C400 checks all the corporate/doc cam operator boxes plus the 24-105 (2.8) would be on the cam 90%+ of all my shoots.
I just got my fx3 and I’ll be keeping it as my main video body until Sony gives us a new camera that has the cooling fan, frame rate options, and dynamic range of the fx3 or greater, with global shutter. That’s what it would take for me to sell the fx3 and switch
Just bought mine. WOW. ITS AMAZING. especially combined with the Phantom Luts it’s unreal. Duel base iso and internal nd is no joke
It’s a lot of greatness packed in 👏🏾
It’s a dream camera for me
It’s great!
This video is timely! We're hoping to get one of these at work before the summer is over!
You’ll never go wrong on it 🙏🏾🫡
FX6 is for doc shooters who work constantly like myself. All other packages slow me down.
How did you know I was looking into buying this.
I read minds over wifi
Finally, it's time to accept CFe As are a failed experiment and Sony needs to let go. CFe B are my favorite media ever and now they're way cheaper.
I hope they just use Type B, love the thought, but not my favoured card, then again now I have 4 I’m stuck with ahah
That’s some solid insight, if someone is looking at the FX6 they’ve already invested in the ecosystem. Solid video fam 🔥
Thanks homie!
Switched to Red, Gemini :) not looking back
Excellent !
@@KofiYeboah but yes, the right camera for the right shoot still applies. Nice channel brother. 👌🏽 keep going
Sitting on $8k of Sony E-mount lens for years now -with $10k ready for the next generation of Sony camera(s). Sorry, but I missed the part about -No 8k, 60fps.😑👨🏽🦲
@@SuperSdbaby theck yall need 8k60 in a sub 10,000 body for😂
FX3 is next on the list but this is something that I am looking at for next year and for the future
It’s a really handy system, has its flaws, but still an entirely solid option !
Hey ! Kofi talking another time about the FX6. Great ! :)
Ahah video #74 on it 🤣
I eat soup with a fork. I feel attacked.
😂😂😂
I am still here dreaming of having a C70 😂🤣😂🤣
And itll come true!
Very informative video 🙌If I can ask you a brief question regarding FX6 and gimbal, do you know if this camera goes well with my current DJI RS3 gimbal, or is an upgrade to the RS3 Pro or even other gimbals a necessity?
I’ve only used the pro gimbal with this guy !
I have to ask, why use this over a FX3 or FX30?
I actually have a video answering both 🫡✌🏾
@KofiYeboah I mean don't get me wrong I'm aware if the specs. But I'm just thinking smaller rig with more features would be the ideal thing.
But I also know a lot of videographers who prefer something much bigger, like a FX6 or a FX9
@@HagaishiSama did you watch the video?
@KofiYeboah Not yet but will!
What kind of tripod do you have?
Manfrotto 502? I think I forget the name tbh
Nomadic? What happened to the sachtler dr bag?
I still have it ! Keeps stuff that won’t fit in the nomatic, also recently, they won’t let me fly with it anymore 😅
@@KofiYeboah really??? That's crazy I wonder why they won't let you fly with it?
@@Esoterixxx not as a carry on (most of the time) it does kinda fit awkwardly in that little holder to check your bag size, which for months they next checked but now they’ll fuss about it, if I take stuff out the side pockets I can be okay ahah
this camera will be “worth it” in another 5 years
@@danielpalma9339 yup 🫡
Nowadays with all of those 6k and 8k cameras fx6 as 4k only camera looks very outdated. The new canon c400 is better in everything at a similar price. In my opinion its over for the fx6 if they dont lower the price by quite a bit
I just don’t think people are jumping ship like that (yet) least, not that fast .like the c400 hasn’t been circulating yet, and even say 3 months by the time you’re ready to switch, even a generous 4-6, there’s another camera by Sony saving you purging gear on market place
I love Kofi
👀👀👀 pinning this
Give us a super 35- c70 style sony camera. I'll buy in an instant.
