Sony FX3 Cinema Camera | Is It Worth $3900??

The Sony FX3 is one of those cameras that I put in the “special” category. The features and overall usability of this camera made me switch.

The FX3 actually worth much more than the price tag.
Totally comparable to way more expensive others cinema cameras, even beating many of them in many aspects like low light performance, signal to noise ratio, high frame rates and much more. It’s a fact.
FX3 is an absolutely brilliant cinema camera, and is now Netflix approved too.

Solid review! The versatility of this camera is insane

I've been in the market for a new camera setup for a minute and this has definitely grabbed my attention! Thanks for the review!

So glad you’re liking the FX3! It’s such a fun camera to use.

Hey, I shoot the fx3 too and for the same reasons you mentioned, having dedicated video labeled buttons for iso, WB, 2 Rec button makes it seamless process ans i don’T need to memorize any function buttons . I keep the fuji system for photos. And avoid shooting videos with it for the same reasons, it’ just a photo camera for me at this point. Keep everything separate👍🏽. That said I would really like to see a video talking about the Leica m lenses on the sony for candid video shooting, that would be sooo soooo cool. Because what the fuji system taught me is that having small and light weight lenses means that I bring the camera with me everywhere and I get to capture moments and scenes that I would have never captured if i had left the camera at home cause it was too cumbersome to bring to dinner at a friends house for exemple. But everyone online says negative things about M lenses on non Leica digital cameras. So you saying that they work great really makes me have hope. Plus it would be a smooth gradual way to get into the Leica M mount system 🙈. Please consider such a video the univers will thank you sir.🫡

Would you choose the fx3 over the r5 for video/ documentary work

[AleksandrPapeko]

I just got my A7IV a couple days ago and it's an incredible hybrid camera. I am planning to buy an FX3.

Native at 12, 800 is nothing short of life changing for smaller weddings without needing (as much) proper lighting

[MagicWeddingPhotographer]

Love the fact that you're buying some Sony gear to add to your Leica setup while I'm buying some Leica gear to add to my Sony setup haha. Great video! Although personally I prefer filming with A7SIII :)

[markpalfreeman]

The Sony lens flexibility/ecosystem was the sole reason I switched from a Canon R6 to Sony A7IV. Slight hit on ergonomics but a win to have way more lens choices for the same money!

[jaymills]

Hey! Great content. Strongly looking to sell R6 and move to Sony for ease of grading, ISO performance, and image. How were skin tones etc. and for purely video use - fx3/a7s3/a7iv for run and gun with natural light only? Especially with internal codecs …

I like how this is about how the camera is good FOR YOU, not how the camera is "good." I noticed that these sorts of personal takes are getting much more popular on YT.

Great vid Benj! Good call on “Floberg-ing” it 😆 also does the FX3 have IBIS and if so do you use it?

[RussellAlboroto]

So M mount lenses look fine on the FX3? No corner smearing? It was a problem for me A7R2 a few years back and ditched the idea. I was always curious if they resolved the issue

[natashanicole]

The wireless go II does have an issue with the fx3 - that’s my only complaint

Don't forget all of the tally lights and redundant card recording for high-paying jobs.
