Great video man! I've also told DJI they need to ditch that whole gimbal setup and make just a cinema camera. They would attract so many buyers, the limitations of the gimbal + lenses makes it a deal breaker for many.
Thanks man, much appreciated coming from you! Yeah it makes a lot more sense this way: start with a cinema camera first with all those fancy features from the handles and wireless. Then follow through with the Ronin 4D. I'm sure adoption rate would've been MUCH HIGHER. Thanks again for the support
@@TohPhimmasenh it can already hold pretty much any lens when locked, the problem is now I’m carrying extra weight for no reason which means I can’t even use a gimbal because it’s too heavy now. This is exactly what happened on a shoot about a month ago. We wanted to use the Ronin 4D but the Mercury Lenses from Atlas were a tad to heavy so instead we used a Komodo X with a DJI RS3 Pro and worked much better. The gimbal part although a good idea on paper in real world scenarios doesn’t really work for many situations because you’re forced to use DJI lenses or smaller lenses from other manufacturers. The limitation is a deal breaker for many and if they made it modular just like the Flex system I feel the Ronin 4D could really stand on its own.
exactly and if they will market it as a modular system in a way that brain and sensor where in the $6k range will make them a lot of sales...knowing that you can get the fancy gymbal later on
Absolutely insane video, the amount of information is just epic. Who could have thought Raptor is the low light king? But damn DJI really did good job on their sensor tech. If they released standalone cinema camera I would buy it in a heartbeat.
I’m pretty sure what’s happening with the second native ISO is that it’s actually switching up to the second circuit at around 4000 but they make 5000 the native ISO so that way there’s an even amount of stops of dynamic range between the shadows and highlights.
I learned a lot from this! In my mind though, the FX3 should only be operated at 800 and 12,800 ISO. Hence why we have Cine EI. So weather being compared to linear or other dual ISO, its pointless to be compared outside of its "base" iso's. But with all that said, the 4D image quality is amazing. From my own tests, it edge out the FX3 from everything from resolution to noice to dynamic range. Its a super underrated CINEMA camera.
@@bemboing4338 I personally haven’t experienced any fuzziness at 12,800. Granted my color grades can get a bit advance and I’m able to really stretch any footage. I think a lot of these online tests are a bit rudimentary. Def not this video tho, super detailed. Learned a lot!
@@bemboing4338 I’ve heard that a lot too, but I anways use film grain so never bugged me personally. And thank you!!! I’m excited to make some LUTs for the Komodo X!
I would say the ISO comparison here should be taken with a GIANT GRAIN OF SALT, given that even if the FX3 at ISO 12800 is a noise score of 65, as you say, practically and scientifically speaking no one increases their ISO to measure the points of noise. We increase the ISO to boost the signal in cases were we can't compensate with additional light. So the most relevant fact here is NOT the 1 point (your scale, not mine) of additional noise, it IS the additional stops of signal light increased by the FX3's additional ISO's that neither the 4D nor the V-Raptor have at all. (Meaning they can't compete at all.) The fact that at ISO 12800 the FX3 has increased my signal for a negligible amount of noise compared to these two camera's only solidifies that the FX3 is better than both these cameras in low light shooting scenarios. I've personally seen very usable footage come out of the FX3 at ISO's well above 12800, which you can't even run that comparison. Further and far less arguable is that because of the physics of the sensors themselves, there isn't currently any technology that allows a 6k and 8k sensor to outperform a 4k sensor in low light without the sensors themselves being much larger than than full frame or maybe even medium format. It just doesn't exist.
Thanks for the comment, I don't agree on "Should only be operated at 800 and 12800 ISO". You saw how each ISO has a different DR for example, native is not always the BEST in everything, it might have a DR distribution that's not good for your scene, or even a lowrered DR. Let's also agree that other than native, it's mainly a gain algorithm applied by the camera, all provided it's shot in RAW. Finally in many situations, you migh tend up being stuck in a situation where no light or aperture will help in shooting in native, so you'll be forced to shoot off native.
@@THEDPJOURNEY I agree that there are lighting situations in which light or aperture will not provide sufficient exposure, most lacking adequate light and not being able to add more. In that case, you want a camera with the highest usable ISO, which when given the options from the cameras that you compared will be the FX3 or the FX6. In that situation that camera has the most light gathering available with a more than usable image.
Epic video. Such a good resource. Honestly its top notch. Definitely not too nerdy. There are so many videos out there that add nothing at all, have no details and don't teach anything. You are the exception and its great to see someone do well and actually inform people of new knowledge.
THANK YOU so much for the kind words, really glad this was helpful and it says something about the camera beyond just hype. Thanks again for your support
Amazing quality content, the way you deconstruct everythings blow my mind and in not so nerdy. Can't stop thinking of the S1H 12.7 DR for a 2019 camera
This IMX410 sensor has been used on so many popular full-frame cameras, including the FF mirrorless bestseller Sony a7iii, as well as S1H, S1, S5, S5ii, D780, Z6, Z6ii, Z5, FX9, a7c, fp, SL-2, etc.
Keep in mind the same sensor can perform very differently based on the way you tweak it and program it. Think of it like a race car engine, you can get completely different performances based on what do you need from it. So I guess DJI managed to squeeze a lot more juice out of it
On of the best sensor comparison videos I’ve seen in my life. Incredible narrative, and planing. Many camera reviewer gods should take this time when talking about specs after they are sent a camera.
This quite possibly might be the best tutorial/review that I've ever seen. IMO, blows Gerald Undone away. Thanks for this, as I own both the 4D and FX3
Wonderful video! However would never shoot outside of 800 or 12800 on Sony. Also I love the tech comparison… it’s the one we’ve been missing. To me it’s most about the lenses and I haven’t seen an image from this camera that I really loved and it’s now apparent it HAS to be due to the glass. That’s the deal breaker. The best sensor in the world can’t make those horrible lenses look great…. You’d have to have a whole team of teams in post work like on Garland’s Civil War.
You should have a look at the URSA 12K using firmware 7.7 or later. In 12K from ISO !00 to 640, the noise is undetectable. From 800 to 1250, if your light greys are at IRE 40 or above, the noise is also undetectable. It is due to the super fine pixels and the RGBW sensor (very good detail and color density). As a result, the latitude is also insanely good.
great video, but fyi hasselblad was bought out by DJI !!, so at 11:27 thats why the skin tone of the 4D is outstanding, as Hasselblad uses Sony sensors, of course, but they tweak the colour science, why the shots look so vouge like!!
Thank you so much for appreciating the effort that went to it. I mean testing the camera is one thing, and trying to simplify it while being technically correct is another. So thanks again
Great, thanks! It was very clear to me. I’d love to see a new video about the X9-8K sensor update, especially to learn how it performs with Dynamic Range Expansion and in low-light situations.
The X6 is much better value for money. The only advantage I see in the times nine is the OLPF filter. It also lacks many of the codecs from the X6 and the Native ISO distribution is way worse than X6. I don’t recommend it, even if it’s the same price as the X6. I honestly didn’t see a point to make an episode about it because of this and a lot more smaller stuff.
With the noise test, I think we missed the mark a little. While noise performance is important.. we’re totally ignoring color quality. The FX3 color looked way better wt 12,800 while the 4D lost a lot of its color quality at that same ISO.
Haven’t really experienced a loss of color detail at all. Keep me n mind these are 2 different log profiles and color science, so the difference in color is expected.
@@THEDPJOURNEY we were just using the 4D 6K and FX3 on a job tonight but at their native ISOs. Both look great. But yeah great review, just circling back on it. Hoping you can do a similar test soon ;)
This is amazing! Thank you so much for doing these tests and sharing the information. This just proves that specs don't always tell the true story. We should be testing and understanding our cameras to know how and when we can push them.
Thank you for your support, and what you said is absolutely what everyone should be doing... specs are just an FYI, but your own testing is what matters. That's why we have should use youtube to share those info with everyone, not just overhype things Thanks again
Sorry for the bad English, I'm Russian, but I have long come to the conclusion that the dual native iso is not designed to reduce noise, as many bloggers claim, but to be able to re-redistribute the dynamic de-range in shadows and lights.
The problem is that camera brands were marketing it as a second "Clean" ISO setting. I actually had a whole section I deleted from the video to keep it shorter, that explored how the DR also resets slightly at 4000, you can already see it in their DR/ISO chart. So yeah, I know about the second ISO and DR fact, but most people wouldn't understand the correlation unless I explain it first. Thanks again
I revisit this as the 4D is almost half off right now. It honestly looks from your testing like the better sensor. But with all the 4D updates, more limited codecs, it’s still a tough call. The versatility of the FX3 is still a pretty easy choice.
For sure, the FX3’s size, more lens compatibility makes it a more versatile choice. But if you care more about image quality, then so far, the 4D is on top of
Great comparison and great video, but comparing these cameras in this way without acknowledging cost differences and other features feels like a slightly misleading set of information.
This comparison is purely aimed at comparing the sensors, not comparing the cameras, I would agree with you if this is about helping you with the choice in buying either of these cameras. But again, I’m only focused on the sensor performance. and we all know there’s a lot more about cameras than just the sensor.
why not compare this with the Sony fx9 since they all have a 6k sensor.... ? I thought about it when he mention the Red with a 8k sensor producing better quality because of its 8k sensor . comparing a 4k vs, 6k, vs 8k kinda is pointless.....
I wish I could compare to the FX9, I just don’t have access to one. I disagree that comparing to FX3 is “pointless”, there’s a lot of info about both cameras that could help FX3 owners to decide on which 6k camera they might consider:FX9 or 4D… that’s one point ☝️
I’m buying a ronin, I can’t believe anyone in their right mind would ever use anything else. Why the heck would anyone use a red? This is 2023.. who wants to waste time setting things up? We’re the new generation.. we want to be creative we don’t want to have to be 10 years of experience in just to create our visions. Anyone who can’t make a cinematic masterpiece with the ronin 6k.. it’s not the gear, it’s the person, not having creativity and etc. the gear is MORE than enough for any possible scenario especially with the pro res raw.
YeH the camera for sure has its ups and down sides. I’d still say it’s a specialty camera. I didn’t fully review everything else about the camera where it has some down sides actually
You can't compare the FX3 at 10000 iso since that is literally just below it's second native base of 12800. Your test shots clearly show that the FX3 at its second native iso looks better than the 4D at the same iso
I believe the fX3 is actually a quad-bayered 48MP sensor with the micro lenses encompassing a group of 2x2 pixels. Do you think this contributes to the noisier pixel structure as well?
could be one explanation. I think it could be the optimization for readout speeds which left image quality behind. The old IMX410 produces a much nicer image as shown on the Ronin 4D but also FX9, S1H, S5II(x), Kinifinity 6K cameras, Z-Cam F6 etc.
DJI is really doing an impressive job not only making a breakthrough innovation by creating a unique camera system but also making their system "usable" for a production scale
Awesome video as always! Quick question, though. Have you tested the Ronin 4D vs the Sony FX3 shooting ProRes RAW with an Atomos Ninja V? I think it’ll be great to do a video comparing those 2 setups. Keep up the good work!
Okay this video was randomly recommended to me by the algorithm, but turned out production in it is basically a benchmark. I'm at loss of words. As aspiring creator, seeing this level of quality, gets me depressed and inspired at the same time!
I’m really happy the algorithm, decided to show it to you, and for you to eventually decide to watch it. Thank you so much for the kind words and it would really mean a lot if you can share it with everyone.
*I've been waiting for the Ronan 4D with the 8K sensor. I would like to see this review once again, but with the 8K X9 Sensor head please. There are no reviews out there on RU-vid for the Ronan 4D with the Zenmuse X9 8K sensor head.*
Had to revisit this video again because of HOW good it is... Also needed some more motivation to finally purchase the 4D haha... But honestly man... Incredible work! One question... I know you talked about this a bit but is it really fair to compare 4k to 6k when it comes to the noise levels? I also wonder how all the tests on the 4D would look like when you do not film in ProRes RAW, since I will not be filming in RAW for the most part. Thank you so much again for this video! Instant sub.
First of all, thank you so much for the kind words, and for revisiting the video. To answer your questions, yes it is technically unfair to compare 6K against 4K when it comes to noise, but the massive difference I saw between both goes way beyond what I was expecting. Imagine the 4D has a 4K sensor with the same exact performance as the 6k, the noise levels diff would be at most 3% difference, 6k being better of course , but here I saw maybe what could be considered as 20%+ reduction in quality, the FX3 went way beyond the unfair range that you can’t really consider it. Maybe the more fair comparison would be with the FX9, since it’s a 6k sensor. But I can assure you it’s not gonna be much better. As for not shooting in RAW, that would be even more unfair and hard to quantify, since both cameras have very different kinds of noise reduction algorithms, making the results very unpredictable when comparing different scenes in different lighting, so basically you’ll be comparing how good or bad the noise reduction is, not what the sensor really gives you to work with Hope that helps
So far I would use the Sony 1.8s They’re pretty small and lightweight. Of course putting on heavier lenses makes it a lot harder to handle, and that’s the main issue with this awesome camera.
What editing denoise do you use? Phenomenal video! I have a 4D and was thinking about getting an FX3 but I'm thinking about just getting another 4D if I decide to get another camera!
Thanks for your kind comment! Yeah the 4D is by far the best performing sensor I’ve seen so far from all mirrorless. I’ve put the link to the denser in the description by the way Thanks again
@@THEDPJOURNEY Great to know! I got an FX3 and really love it, there are things I love more about it in comparison to the 4D, so much so I am very split on which one I should get a twin of first!
Thanks for the comment, such informations can never be disclosed unfortunately due to NDAs I sign before dealing with them So I cannot confirm or deny that fact
Was planning to work on an episode to cover the reasons why I would not advise the 8K except for very few people that might find it a better choice, just haven’t had the time to work on that video honestly since it’s not a priority
Great video, i am a sony fan and owner of the sony a7s iii a great camera so far. reason i bought it was for he vast selection of 3rd party glass and color is quite objective for me i do like the colors that i am getting with this camera. The layout, customization and small body of the camera and lenses are big factors as i try to be as light on the go as possible with my gear. The 4d sensor does shine in many aspects and i do root for great gear in general we the people win when those companies try to be at their best. So now my question, do you think you could get in touch with gerald undone and share some of your unreleased testing of that sensor or motivate him of doing a collab? I watch many of his technical vids and they are fantastic. I saw your channel and this video for the first time and was impressed and not be surprised that you will reach 100k subs in a few months. For me it's important that the content is as objective as it can be that's only a win for those that haven't yet bought a camera. I grew up with sony products and they never failed me that's one reason i like to stick with sony and that they did open up a lot more compared to back in the day where they tried to do what apple is doing for many years now and force you into their eco system as hard as possible that's why i am quite disappointed when i see canon not having their mount completely open to 3rd party lenses it's a shame i like canon quite a lot too. Thanks for the content i've learned a lot keep up coming up with vids and show all the great positives each of those brands is offering.
Thank you so much for this awesome comment, I'm already in touch with Gerald Undone since a couple of years back actually. We often discuss results from our tests. Hopefully soon we will collaborate on an episode together. He didn't get the chance to review the ronin unfortunately but maybe we will collaborate on a review together sometime. So stay tuned and thanks again for watching.
Thank you for this important information. I own a Sony FX3 camera. I was thinking of selling it and buying a Ronin 4D. In fact, the Sony FX3 is a great camera, but even in the daytime and at ISO 800, I don’t get a good picture. I don’t know why, so I thought about buying a Ronin 4D. Do you advise me to buy it?
Man man man,🔥 you shocked me😄 After 3 years thinking about FX3, and I believe how fx3 was the best of last 2 years for me Now you really one more time change my mind😄🔥 You can’t believe how your videos keep me watching it that I don’t like to see ending in your videos.😄 Thanks for your time🙏🏼
OMG, thans a lot for such awesome support, it really makes my day and pushes me to do more when i see such awesome support from awesome people like you. Thanks again for watching and for your support

It just doesn't exist.
Great observations and video as always! BUT I think you should emphasize more that this is FX3's RAW performance. In H.264 or HEVC sony does a really good job in getting rid of a lot of noise while still retaining a somewhat sharp image. Not a lot of people shoot only RAW video. It would be interesting if you populated the comparison charts with HEVC and AVC noise performance, so we could see more meaningful comparisons. As always top notch video!
I think he mentioned that his intent was to analyze primarily the sensor itself and the best way to do that is to look at the RAW video output. I get your point in regards to real world use - but that said there are a lot of us who shoot primarily in RAW in fact I don’t think I have ever used the ProRes built into my REDs or when we rent Alexa’s for a job but that has a lot to do with the types of jobs you take on. Event shooters and short form content creators probably don’t care about RAW as much but folks doing commercials, narrative or the types of VFX jobs. Having more information about how the raw capabilities stand up is important. I for one was pretty impressed with the 4D in this video and might consider it over the Komodo-X I was planning on adding.
I actually have a LOT of other tests with the H264 comparisons, but I cut that bit out otherwise the episode would've crossed 50 min. but to your point, the reason why I had this whole section there, was to show how the H264 from this camera is MUCH more impressive than the SONY as well. Maybe I'll compile these other findings in part 2
Fantastic video as always. So glad you clearly demonstrated the relatively unknown poor noise performance habits of the FX3/A7Siii. I'd love to see you deep dive on the Sony A1's video performance in 8K mode, that camera seems to be under-rated for video performance.
@@THEDPJOURNEYI've been running one daily for the last couple months, and everyone asks me what I film on now, because the footage is just unreal from this thing. Now I need to get ahold of the flex cable, look at what BestBoyAdam did with his, basically made it a tiny handheld rig that can take huge lenses and the brainbox just goes in a backpack.
Great video. I honestly couldnt be happier with this camera. When you break down all the things about the camera besides the gimbal, it is hard to beat. Pulling focus from the handle, moving camera head with joystick, blackmagic style screen interface(touchscreen and user friendly), the image!, pull focus on manual lenses(w/focus motor for ronin 4d) and calibrate to autofocus, switch camera mounts to E,M,L,or DL mounts. When you think about price and how much you would have to buy to make any other camera do all of this its a no brainer. Aprehension of buying is typically because of price, you are not sure and it looks weird, Your secretly jealous, or you think it has limitations on lenses. Well im hear to say every time i use this camera and show other filmmakers they are like "wtf! This is ridiculous and amazing". It immediately has that magic feeling you felt when you were a kid playing video games.
Totally agree with what you're saying, the main problem is, you're buying the whole package together all at once. While everyone looks at it as an expensive camera, when it's actually a camera + Gimbal + monitor + LIDAR + SSD. if you buy them separate, they won't be that far from the price
WOW! my man did it again! This presentation is superb! Even though I am not super techie (but I love gear...), I found this super easy to understand.. besides I learnt so much! Thank you!
This IMX410 sensor on Ronin 4D-6K has been used on so many popular full-frame cameras, including the FF mirrorless bestseller Sony a7iii, as well as S1H, S1, S5, S5ii, D780, Z6, Z6ii, Z5, FX9, a7c, fp, SL-2, etc.
@@THEDPJOURNEY It is not an official statement by DJI but my hypothesis is based on the following facts: 1. Ronin 4D maxes out at 6K48p at 12bit 17:9 mode, which pretty much matches that of IMX410 at 24MP 3:2 open gate at 40p 12bit. 2. Its dynamic range and readout speed is very close to some of the true cinema cameras listed above, like S1H and FX9. 3. DJI started developing Ronin 4D a few years back and it is reasonable to assume they picked the most cost-effective 6K full frame sensor at that time which was IMX410. Had they developed their own sensor, they would've mentioned it with great emphasis, as a sign of sensor manufacturing breakthrough for China. Had there been better options, they would've gone for a faster sensor.
Same question in my head. Sony image sensors are not only popular, but highly acclaimed in the market as well. I am just curious how DJI can defeat Sony so cleanly.
@@frankfeng2701 there are so many renditions of the same sensor, think of it like cars, they're all the same model but with different performance and features. With that said, I guess the best way to really find out about anything is to try it, not to only read specs. Which is why I never take any company's claims for granted, but rather test it myself
And then, I guess we will see what Sony comes out with next. If nothing else, having competition drive quality is important, but so is pricing. Hadn't looked at the DJI, but looks like twice the price. Maybe a good value there, I dunno. Odd form factor? Anyway, interesting comparison. Still, as much as tech folks like specs and 'nerding out' as you mentioned, lots of amazing work being done on the FX3 and other compact cameras. Coming from old school BetaSP and before days (3/4inch), seeing the birth of digital NLE, and the birth of digital cameras all together...I tend to focus on the embarrassment of riches every day people have with access to such great technology at fractions of prices we used to pay just to enter the field. Cheers.
Thanks for the comment, keep in mind I'm not trying to trash the FX3, it's an awesome camera in many ways! Also I'm not comparing both "Cameras", I'm only comparing "Sensors". DJI has a lot of good and bad things, also keep in mind it's not only a camera, but a camera and gimbal in 1. So you can't compare any camera to it without considering the price of a gimbal in the comparison. And yeah, all cameras out there are pretty good to be honest, good enough for pretty much anything, it's all a matter of which one is good for YOU and YOUR style. I'm here to lay down the nerdy facts to help you find the best camera for you.
Looks like Prores Raw has the best low light performance, but it also looks like H.264 requires internal noise reduction like most mirrorless cameras. The second native ISO is only slightly higher than the first native ISO with PRR max PR4444.
The Ronin Camera is interesting but I think DJI has a long way to go of building a good cinema camera but at least they are on the right way. I have an FX3 and an FX6, I use them with an Atomos in ProRes and RAW and internally for slow motion 120 fps in 4k and the quality of these 2 monster cameras are incredible, both base ISO 800 and 12800 so clean in low light condition. I have worked with RED and they are good cameras but for some reason Sony gives that clean and cinematic look that I do not change my Sony cameras for any RED, Ronin or BMPC because with a RED in night scenes you have to turn on good expensive lights to keep that noise off the sensor but with a Sony with a 120 watt light at 12800 ISO the image looks impressive and clear.. Another thing that Sony helps a lot to film is when you are going to use the auto focus, Sony is impressive in that area and when you use the Manual focus assistant it makes it easy for you to work immediately by focusing yourself with a button, instead with a RED you have to pay a Focus Puller to be aware of manual focus, more long hours of filming etc etc etc. Good video master, we have to wait a bit for the future of DJI to bring us with its new facet making cinema cameras.
SONY cameras are great in many ways and bad in many other ways, same with RED, BMPCC and DJI. SO it all goes down to what you need. Not sure which RED your'e referring to about needing "expensive lights", but the RED V-Raptor has demonstrated great low light performance, you saw in this video a proof of that (If you watched the full episode). Also lights now are pretty affordable. But I totally agree that DJI had an awesome idea with great execution, but not the best planning when it comes to what the market really needs.
I know it is completely wrong comparison but a7iv has better noise performance in that iso 4000 and 10000 range. Even if that camera cannot shoot raw the details are great. Also Canon R5 and may be a1 can also be tested. This test obviously wont be for cine pros.
Realy great video! BTW the second ISO is not just about resetting the noise, it's about ressetting the distribution of dynamic range stops back to around base levels - as we boost ISO you gain stops in the highlights and loose them in the shadows. Having dual native ISOs restets the spread of highlight and shadow information to closer to 'native'. That's why the noise resets at 4000 but it's not the designated second native, it probably doesn't have as much range in the shadows to be comparative to 800.
Thanks for the comment, with that said, did you notice how the DR reset is happening in 4000, not 5000. there's a weird change happening there. So it seems their 2nd native is 4000 not 5000. Also their 8K sensor's second native is 4000 as well... so yeah, something to think about
As with most dual ISO cameras the noise resets earlier than the claimed 'base' iso. That's when the camera swaps to the new gain circuit, not when the cameras dynamic range is at it's 'baseline' for what the company considers best for stops distributed under or above middle grey. At ISo 4000 it will have more dynamic range in the shadows and not enough in the highlights to have the spread considered to be the new 'native' level. @@THEDPJOURNEY
Wow. Sherif, this video is so amazing and well-thought-out ! Thank you for debunking myth that a camera with larger pixels (and thus having lower resolution ) means it's good in low - light. I also appreciate how you were so objective throughout this video ( given that most RU-vidrs here are Sony fanboys).
Is it true that Fx3 is better than Ronin DJI 4D!!!! I can't believe it. I sold my Fx3 camera and want to buy a 4D camera, but I'm afraid of one thing. They say that Adobe Premiere does not edit and you cannot edit on it using Raw. Is this true?
FX3 is better than Ronin in many aspects, the opposite is also true. Not sure what you’re referring to when asking :”is it true FX3 is better than Ronin” Premiere can edit RAW
On my Pocket 4k the second gain ISO starts at ISO 1250, while the second native ISO is 3200. So that’s ISO 400 and ISO 3200 but the second starts at 1250 so it’s the cleanest at 1250. At 17:26 the clips shows the native ISO’s having the best highlight and shadow ratios. ISO 4000 is where the second gain starts.
If you don't mind me answering your question with another question... Why did you not watch the whole video? :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gzDR1cKpKjQ.html
at 0:36 when you show the noise performance between dji roinin 4d and fx3 at 10,000 iso, wouldnt it be more fair to bump to sony fx3 to 12,800 since that is its second base. a lot of the noise should clear up then.
I feel like in a few years DJI will be selling straight cinema cameras. At least I hope so. They seem to have a philosophy of giving customers what they want, while also innovating.
Magnificent as usual my man! Highlight rolloff shoot-off, the cine-nerd's ultimate wet dream, haha! Quite astonished how bad FX3 compares in lowlight, with such a fugly green tint in even lower ISO... Sony colour science. Interested to know your thoughts on the Kinefinty Mavo MK II...? Big applause, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah I was shocked myself at the kind of results aI got from FX3. As I mentioned, I thought it'll beat the Ronin... but it failed miserably
