This is the best Sony FX30 cinema camera rig! After owning the Sony FX30 for a year I have transformed a small camera into a compact and efficient cinema rig. One of my favorite rig builds that I've done.

wow, thats a high quality rig build video!

really love your visual style with your VO + background music. Felt very honest and you really showed all parts in detail.
Keep it up!

Not gonna lie it kinda bugs me all of these youtubers with top tier rigs when they're spending most of the time on their desks. Not saying this is the case, but most of the time these guys are just pumping gear down our throats :( Gear reviews really have to change

That's a super sick rig! Been really enjoying your vids

[loganwebb]

Love the rig! A word of caution to the dummy battery - couple of folks have bricked their systems. Safer to use USB PD from a power bank or small rig v mount!

Was just the video i needed! Exactly how I pictured rigging my fx3!

[BianicEpicVideos]

Hey, man, u got a new subscriber from Uzbekistan. I liked your videos and I'm about to start a road that u started a year ago with Sony FX30. I will buy that camera with a Sigma 24-70 lens + MacBook M3 36gb ram 512ssd. will this Mac be enough to edit 4k videos without lagging or freezing VFS effect problems? what do you think about my new equipment upgrades?

I love the Small Rig legs. I bought six of them..

[Tuesday_Media]

I am going to start building it up now !

This video made me a subscriber...and I think I'm going to be a happy camper!

Hi love the video ! The Amazon link has the e mount for $999 but the Sirui website it is only priced at $400 .. can you help us out with what to purchase ?

[vicious]

Didnt like leaving battery wide open so j bought a replacement door with a dummy battery hatch off of ebay.

Enjoyed this video a lot! Found it cuz I’m beginning to research cameras and a friend suggested the FX30. What camera did you use to film the video??

[alanquinones]

Sweet video! What is that multi tool you're using? to set up the rig?

I have a Sony A6400 with a Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 lens and I'm planning to start shooting talking head videos indoors. I'm considering replacing the Sony A6400 with either the Sony FX30, Sony A6700, or Sony A7C II, but I'm totally confused about which one to choose. I haven’t shot any videos yet. Could you please guide me on which camera would be the best option?

[joseegonzalez]

Do you have a written instruction page on how to put it together?

[BouphasaGaming]

Do I need the bottom base plate for the v mount? Or can I just attach it to the cage?

[creativcluster]

What is the exact rod length as Amazon have the small rig 15mm at several length what length are the rods you use? Please reply

[Shalin.S.Shah.]

what's the reason behind not just mounting v mount plate on rails but buying a seperate system? Doesnt it take away lot of flexibility as far as distance is concerned? As with rails, you can mount battery plate further away from screen and also this provides you with an opportunity to buy a plate with bunch of d-taps and ports?

[joeumali]

why didn't you get a kondor blue d-tap cable for your monitor?
