Disassembling My Sony FX3 Rig | Camera Gear Breakdown

Welcome to this episode of The Sneaker Principal Podcast, where I take you through the process of disassembling my Sony FX3 rig and sharing how it’s helping me create a documentary about my family’s experiences during the Nigerian Civil War.

As a West African filmmaker, this project holds deep personal significance. My goal is to archive the stories of my family members, including my late father, who served as a young soldier during the war. The FX3 has been the perfect tool for this cinematic journey, providing unmatched quality and versatility.

In this video, I’ll show you:
• The full Sony FX3 rig setup, including the 16-35mm G Master lens, Tilta grip, and Atomos Ninja V.
• How each accessory—like the V-Mount battery and XLR microphone—enhances the FX3 for professional documentary work.
• Why the FX3’s ergonomics and features make it a perfect choice for handheld and tripod setups.
• A breakdown of my gear choices and how I’ve made my rig adaptable for other cameras like the FX30, ZV-E1, and Canon R5.

This video isn’t just about camera gear—it’s about the journey of creating meaningful stories. Whether you’re a filmmaker, photographer, or just curious about gear setups, you’ll find something valuable here.
