@apiedatokyo Год назад

I love rigging like any other cinema obsessed man out there 😅, but coming from a bmpcc I think that it defeats a bit the purpose of the form factor. Having something small with great IS means that I can just dump the camera in my bag and use it when I need. For bigger shootings I would probably use something else (bm or rent and fx6 or fx9 if consistency is an issue).

@KofiYeboah Год назад

That’s true ! Different strokes !

@123isaacvee 16 дней назад

Can you record 4k60 on the fx30 with your ninja v?

@Sanchan Год назад

I saw someone talk how the raw portion of the FX30 isnt good, hope you are able to test this in future when it can get fixed or so. I've been looking to get a 10-20mm pz or 18-105mm pz for indoor shooting YT. Not sure if OSS is worth it on 105mm or having half weight from the 20mm. On another channel, I use a tripod but would like to hold and shoot for faster shots. Really don't know what to choose between the two. These don't have the best low light compared to tamron or sigma, but I'm really interested in the PZ functionality since it can help getting zoom/pan shots faster.

@mrstephenwells Год назад

Hey man. This is great. Big question for me at the moment: Do I rig up my A7siii like this with all the kit on there, or invest in an fx6? The majority of my work is handheld and run+gun, with the occasional tripod interview. I'm constantly trying to compare variable ND vs internal stabilization, currently leaning towards just rigging up my A7s so I get the majority of the benefits but still keep the stabilization. But you've clearly tried both, a fair amount, what do you reckon?

@KofiYeboah Год назад

If you have FX6 money, and clients I’d say grab it before Sony decides to put it on back order again 😂

@Tim-Miller- 4 месяца назад

@@KofiYeboah that's true I should of been more specific , I have a 16-55 zoom lens , and hover mostly around 16-35 range on my fx30 , I've been told its great to kind of have a 24 and a 50 if can only have two primes and a 16 and a 35 are great for apsc , so I figured either getting a 25 or a 35 would be perfect in these lenses but I can only afford one at a time ! anyway , always love your vids , appreciate what you do my friend !

Never use a dummy battery to Dtap for the FX30. You’re connecting 14.4v to a 7.2v connection. You will fry the camera’s motherboard.

Thanks for the rig. How do you power your FX30 externally? I have a v-mount battery plate that comes with a D-Tap and a USB-A jack for power. I tried using a USB-A to USB-C to power my FX30, but, the FX30 did not see the battery when I plugged it into the camera. Any suggestions? I checked Sony firmware for FX30B, and it doesn't show anything at the moment. I have v1.0 firmware.

@KofiYeboah Год назад

I found the same on my regular usb cable as well ! I did some digging and was recommended a usb c to usbc cable that has to be capable of a higher wattage I linked in the description I’ll be trying it out and will update the results !

@@KofiYeboah Thanks, Kofi. I will have to get one of the v-mount batteries you recommended since it has the USB-C input/output jack. Thanks for all the links. PS. I noticed that under the USB settings it has a Mass Storage setting. I've heard that the FX30 is supposed to get the ability to record externally to USB-C external drives - like the Samsung T5's- in a firmware update. I hope that happens soon. I have a couple Samsung T5 512GB SSD's that would work well.
