    Which of these would you pick if you were choosing one as your first camera? Let me know 👇

    I picked up the A7IV when it dropped, been in love with it, honestly all I'm missing is the 4K60 no crop and a 4K120 no crop of the FX3/A7SII.
    Coming from the A6XXX, if the FX30 had dropped a few months ago I'd have gotten that instead of the A7IV because of the lenses I already owned but now that I have the FF lenses already, not switching back

    • @EasyTigerCreative
      @EasyTigerCreative  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely 100% agree. If you had already had APSE lenses I would’ve definitely just stuck with the FX 30 but now that you’re invested in the full-frame line there’s no point you going with this camera unless you want a running gun type of cinema camera that you can use your full-frame lenses and then just buy one APSE land for the wider shot and be fine for a condensed camera for video for other than that I would just stay with your cold frame and maybe eventually get A FX 3 or a7siii

    I shoot with the a7siii, the primary reason I want the FX30 is to run it with the 18-105. It's just the most practical Gimbal Run N Gun kit in all of Sony.

    To be honest, I think that A7IV is still a better buy. I looked through the footage available today and ... A7IV's low light is much better, Stabilization looks better on A7IV as well, and my main concern is IQ ... the picture is pretty flat ... I don't know how to explain it, but it looks flat. A7IV and A7sIII create amazing depth of field and the video looks more alive, not as plastic as on fx30, you know what I mean, right? So, yes, the price is good and there are so many features, but do I like the image quality? I'd rather say no than yes. and I believe that's why the price is so aggressive.
    Everything is IMHO, of course.

    • @sstteevveenn77
      @sstteevveenn77 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The fx30 IQ looking flat is a very subjective opinion. I've seen almost all the reviews and at no point did the IQ of the FX30 look flat to me. I think what you're referring to has more to do with how people are color grading the images from this new camera. The a74 has been out longer so people have been able to perfect the image in post a lot better. From what I've seen the IQ of the FX30 looks identical to the a7IV.
      I do think A7IV wins low-light, no question. However I think the Fx30 had clearly better rolling shutter performance than the a74. Not as good as the fx3 and a7siii but still very good.
      I think if you're a hybrid shooter the a74 is definitely the way to go. If you're a video content creator (especially if you're just starting out) I believe the fx30 to be the better choice. Cheaper body, better video-focused body, cheaper lenses (although you can use fullframes if u want), and also has some specs that are better than the a74. I wont be getting the fx30 but I think its a great new addition to the lineup

    • @EasyTigerCreative
      @EasyTigerCreative  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think it might look “flat” due to the fx30 being apsc I suppose since the bokeh of full frame and depth looks nicer in my eyes!

    I had the FX3 and sold it, never really needed 120p 4K. Although it was a great camera, I decided to get and A7IV bc I need a good camera for photography as well. I absolutely love it. Only "bummer" is the 60p crop bc I shoot 90% of my video work in 60p but also do not shoot wider than 24mm ever. So paid with the 17-28 and 28-75 G2 Tamron, It is perfect. I see the FX30 for people who already had a crop sensor camera and lenses that want to get a more cinematic camera. Otherwise I would much rather have FF and FF lenses. Bodies will come and go. If the FX"4" gets Full DCI 4K I would think about getting one of those in the future. I actually prefer the Blackmagic cameras but since I am a solo shooter I could not deal with worrying about focusing all the time and was the reason I sold it too. If need, I can always rent any camera I want.

    • @EasyTigerCreative
      @EasyTigerCreative  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That makes a lot of sense honestly! I totally agree. If you’re in apsc it’s a great camera the fx 30, but if you’re going from full frame, it would only make sense maybe if you need a b cam. For me the fx30 would be a great starter cinema camera if I didn’t own any previous gear and was trying to start getting into videoing more. If you want a hybrid camera then the a7iv will be it definitely!

    There are pros out their who've shot super 35 their entire careers, who are going to buy the FX30. There are documentary filmmakers that will make this their main camera. The cinema lenses designed for super 35 is insane. It just makes sense. You can match almost any shot with the glass out there now. Calling it a "start up" cinema camera is really selling it short. Productions out their with the budget for one FX3 b-cam, will likely be buying two FX30s instead. With all the used a7IVs hitting the market, hybrid shooters will have something to think about.

    • @EasyTigerCreative
      @EasyTigerCreative  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely agree! Only reason I see it as a start up cinema camera is for the price point since people can start with this and move on their way up to the full frame eventually! People will definitely have some options going forward regardless.

    If you are a cinematographer and you use full frame, raise your hand 🙋‍♂️
    A super 35 sensor is not a deal breaker for me. Blackmagic, RED and ARRI use it so 🤷🏻‍♂️ Yes, you do have less background compression, and I think the dynamic range on the FX3 is just 13 stops as compared to the FX3's 16 stops.
    For cinematography The FX30 is a camera I would recommend before the FX3.
    I currently use my A7IV as a B camera and for taking pictures and don’t own any FX line cameras.
    I prefer the more straightforward menus found on most dedicated cinema cameras, as well as the color science that Sony cameras lack.

  • @j.zuberi
    @j.zuberi 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is for anyone who's like me and loves Hybrid shooting. Id personally go with the a7iv due to it does everything the Fx30 can do and some even better, the only thing is its a 1k more than the fx30 but if you cop the external mic set up that automatically comes with the Fx3, then the fx30 is pretty close price wise with the a7iv...and there are a7iv kits that has everything for just under 3k. So if ya'll shoot BOTH Cinema style footage AND photos equally...then the fx30 might not be your bag. HOWEVER the fx30 does have 26mp in stills so if you're not doing prints, that could be a great entry cinema cam with good stills capabilities as well.
    Either way, think it thru on what works BEST for your workflow. For me the a7iv is perfect for ME.

So not too bad but the a7iv seems to be sharper and better fully. Just the price point for the fx30 is pretty good for getting into a cinema camera for only video rather than a hybrid camera with the a7iv.

    I have an a7iii and getting itchy for a new body, especially with the mic in port being dead on it. I'd like to do more video stuff and the FX30 is really enticing. I probably wouldn't get rid of the a7iii for it though.
    Before it was announced, I was thinking about the a7C, but I hate the EVF on it, so the body on the FX30 is almost perfect. My only concern is that I love my 17-28, 28-75 and 70-180 on full frame, so the crop is a bit of a worry.
    Then maybe I can find someone to buy my a7iii and upgrade that to an a7iv if I do get an FX30 and decide I "need" my photo/video camera to be new too...

    Had this come out a couple of months ago I would have bought it instead of the A7iv. Now however I'm a bit torn, because if I have to sell my A7iv, it will lose too much value, and I'm not sure this camera has that much new to offer. It's mainly the 'cinematic' form factor, being able to implementat LUTs, and better cooling that appeals to me. But the low light is not as good, the stops of dynamic range is worse, the rolling shutter strangely seems to be about the same (at least in cropped mode), plus the A7iv is Full Frame. All in all from my view point it makes littles sense. For someone like me looking for a similar camera setup, there are a lot of money to be saved.

The A7IV is better for video ALL DAY LONG. Not even just for the camera itself but equally the lenses. I feel like you have no clue what you are taking about so I am not sure why you are making these videos. Yea, it can't do 230fps to capture a drop of water falling in a 20 second video at 1080P, but for that rare as heck case my iPhone sure as hell can. Even if this is your 2nd or 3rd camera it sill makes no sense by the time you buy baby lenses for your APSC if you already have full-frame. Don't hold your beath for Sony to start sending you cameras until you study a bit harder. How someone makes review WITHOUT even RENTING the camera to use is ASANINE!

    • @EasyTigerCreative
      @EasyTigerCreative  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well I guess your dad didn’t lecture you into paying attention then 😂 cause clearly I said if you don’t own an A7iv, and are needing only a video camera, then this would be a great camera to dive into a cinema line and a camera for pure videos for the price point. I even said that full frame is better for low light, and also for other things, but for the price point if you’re having to choose to start into one, the fx30 has a great starting point for the specs for the budget that allows you to get a great image. Full frame is better in many ways, but it’s not better if you don’t know how to use your camera. Anyone that knows how to use the camera correctly will be fine with either, look at people who shoot with Fuji that is apsc… the point is that if you don’t have a full frame camera, or if you’re wanting to upgrade your apsc camera, then the fx30 is a phenomenal camera for the budget to help you get a camera that has amazing video specs.
      I love comments like yours of people who just decide to comment idiotic things, without watching everything all the way through. Don’t need to rent a camera when I’ve used plenty of them to know what can be good or not. Would it be nicer to have the camera in person to test?

      There is no excuse to make reviews and recommend cameras to people without having used it. It's rediculous.
