That's why I don't listen anymore to these "tech reviewers" that just read off specs but don't even produce any quality work worth watching. For me, this channel is a testament to skill vs gear.
This is something we wanted to showcase in this channel as many channels don't is actually hard testing our gear and creating things we like with it before we do a review. We're stoked you think that!
Still shooting on my a7iii as well, and yes I'll eventually upgrade, but your work is a beacon and a reminder to not get caught up in the latest gear and specs. Cheers!
Love this video, just bought an a7iii few months ago and I found myself shooting more and more because the quality is impressing. I've just shot in the Canary Islands at ISO 4000 as it was very dark and I was shocked to see the video quality on my laptop, basically no noise😍
after finding your channel, i realised there’s no need for me to upgrade to 10 bit video just yet. seeing how u guys manipulate the 8 bit footage inspires me. although i really wish the a7iii had a flip out screen for vlogging
We believe you can push the 8 bit footage a lot if you learn to understand it's limits in post. It may also take longer to get you're desired look with 8-bit but at the end of the day you can get very similar images. Remember getting lighting correct plays a huge factor in this! and yes a flip out screen for vlogging or even filming youtube videos would've been super helpful
@@meliorstudios i couldnt agree more. I'm definitely learning through every video I make. i just posted a new short film and I really think I'm starting to get the hang of it
@@meliorstudios omg i saw your comment, u have no idea what that meant to me! but it got removed my youtube 💔 it would mean the world to me if u could try again!!
Great video mate. I was going to upgrade to a FX3 for video... it was a big pill to swallow, so I really pondered over it. I decided to invest into a good lighting setup and that has honestly made the biggest difference.
Lighting and understanding how to light a given scene is so important, and definitely wiser to invest money and time into. We’re still just about learning about it all. Hope you create some awesome things!
Awesome Vlog guys, the editing, and overall production was great. You are definitely getting the most out of the A7iii image and showing the creative community that its not about the camera, but what you do with it. Always look forward to seeing your new posts.
I didn’t expect that you look like that :) so nice to meet you and big thanks for your reply to my email 😊 . I’m telling you all guys this is the best RUclips channel ever 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a a7iii owner your content is truly inspirational. I use the Tamron 28-75 2.8, just some questions. why do you use the canon? For the image stabilization? Also, is buying the 35 1.8 worth it? Do you see that much difference between 2.8 and 1.8? Thank you
Hey Filipe, thanks for taking the time watch our video! To answer your questions, 1. We used to own a canon camera before we upgraded to the A7iii and already owned the canon glass, hence it was cheaper for us just to buy an adapter. 2. If we would recommend one lens to anyone buying the A7 series it would be the Sony 35mm 1.8 and if you have the bigger the 1.4, incredibly versatile lens as you’ll be able to see in the video examples in the video. 3: yes, in low light 2.8 is often not shallow enough to let in enough light and so we often use the 35mm 1.8 in those situations. We hope that answers the questions:)
An absolutely brilliant review of the Sony A73. The Sony A74 is on my list. The Sony 1080 in 10 bit on the Sony A74 looks great. Looking forward to seeing more of your work. Never realized you guys where from the Uk as so am I
Thanks for taking the time to watch! And yeah the Sony a74 is great, you’ll have to let us know if you do get it, we’ll be interested to know your thoughts. Also it’s great meeting other UK creatives
Still shoot on my A7iii and I love it. 4k/24p oversampling does a grait job, though I mainly use it for still objects. For panning, gimbal movements and children playing I use 1080/60p which is still a decent quality. And sure X-T4 and GH5 may have a supperior video recordign specs, but they are not full frame snesors and A7iii totally beats them in low light and when you need that shallow DOF for the best cinematic looks. Cheers for the great video :)
Very informative! Thanks a lot. I would like to ask you that you have used colour mode - ITU.709 MATRIX where almost every other tutorial says either SGamut 3 or SGamut 3.Cine so could you please explain which one is the best for cinematic colour rendering?
Hey thanks for watching! This is simply for the Sony A7iii. The Sony A7iii has really bad magenta shift which is very hard to color grade. This is partly due to Sgamut3 which doesn’t work too well as a color space on the A7iii. A way of getting around this magenta shift is using ITU.709 matrix instead. There will still be a magenta shift but much less than when using sgamut. Thus, making it a lot easier to color grade. I hope that makes sense. Majority of the Sony A7iii videos on out RUclips are shot on slog2 and itu.709 matrix if you wanted to see more examples
Hey we do also have the Fuji XT4 and it’s great but we tend to stick with the A7iii as it provides a faster workflow. However once we upgrade our post processing machines this will probably change
Nice video! I'd like to know what software you use for that grainy look especially in the footage 4:21. Also the colors are very nice... Let me know please!
Are you guys planning on upgrading to the A7S3 or A74? I have the A7S3 and it is incredible, I also have the A73 and still love the image it produces. I also the GH5 and really feel that it produces a film look right off the bat. All in all I just love that we have these tools available to us to create. Your stuff looks great. Keep it up!!!
Hey! And we’ve definitely been looking into both of those cameras, the A7Siii seems to tick most of the boxes. The GH5 to this day is still a powerhouse of a video camera. We had a watch of some of your videos and you’re right it really does give off that filmy look! And thank you, we hope you do too!
@@meliorstudios oh awesome. My brother Patrick Lazzari is huge fan of your channel. He loves what you are doing with the A7III. He has one too and is working in Davinci as well.
Hi , first of all thank you so much for your content on the A7iii , I always look forward to seeing them. Can you please share other than the camera and lens, what else must have gear is included here 2:07 ?
You mentioned the option of a Panasonic GH5. I’m looking for a camera purely for video so would you recommend this? I have a Nikon D850 for photos however I’m torn between a Nikon z6ii, Sony A7iii, or the GH5. I know talent is paramount but I’m also thinking about cost to quality. I’ll mainly be shooting architectural/interior videos. Thank you, subscribed
Hey! As a video camera I’d say the GH5 is superior to the A7iii. It has a lot of features which the A7iii doesn’t and produces great Colors. Tho saying this, you can achieve great visuals fro the A7iii too and have great plethora of lenses to choose from However it has a micro four thirds mount which is great but if your thinking of upgrading further in the future to Sony/canon etc it may be. At the end of the day, it’s your call, let us know what you decide!
Thank you for the heads up. I don’t have much knowledge on video specs etc. I’m looking at the GH5 and it will likely buy it. Although the choice of lenses seems limited. I would use my tilt shift lens for certain architectural videos but it’s hard to find an adapter that works with tilt shift lenses. This is the only reason I would purchase the Nikon z6ii for lens compatibility (but compromise some video quality)
Mad. Just picked up one in good condition with vlog & a cage for £540. Bought a bunch of accessories including a good Card for 4K and still £900. Could easily go up to £1300 including a lens and have an ultimate rig setup. But time being I can still use it until I invest more! Thanks for the recommendation to get me kickstarted.
@@meliorstudios I just finished the shooting of my second music video. I am dead. 🤣. Shot everything on the Canon m50 but my 3 man team (me included) kinda pulled it off. Let,s see what the edit will bring. Once my holiday is over.
we often use a circular variable ND filter to reduce the amount of light help control the exposure and sometimes a black pro mist 1/4 filter though we haven't used this in over a year. And fot the canon lens. We used to have a canon 6d where we bough the canon lens. So when we upgraded to the Sony A7iii it was cheaper to get an adapter for the canon glass than buy the sony equivelent lens. That was the main reason for it!
amazing l have Sony a73 to which is l was going to buy a74 but after watching this video l can buy lens instead a new camera. love your content also if you write down below your gears would like that.
Been thinking of upgrading soon, either to a S1H or a Sony A7III, right now my current setup is a Canon EOS R paired with my Atomos Ninja V. The only thing I dont like about my camera is that it has a major crop when shooting 4K.
@@meliorstudios I have used it once when shooting a wedding and it did have the option to shoot 6K, I just need to find a good deal on the used market. S1H plus all my Canon glass its gonna be crisp!
@@meliorstudios the Netflix approved is just for Netflix originals they want 10 bit 4k doubt many ppl will be shooting an original it may be overboard.
MANY THX--I have 2 a7111s--i cant afford to upgrade atm--would like 4k 60/120 fps :( have you used soemtinh glike topaz to upscale 1080P , if so any feedback 🙏
We don’t know too much about the S5 but we’ve heard it’s a lot more powerful than the A7iii and had a better codec but we’re not too sure about the image quality
Hi ! I have a7iii for two months ,great camera, I am pleased with it and the only complain is that my previous a6300 had better autofocus at least with 50mm lens.Now i am planning to buy another one ,to sybstitude my g9 and I am betwwen Fuji xt4 and lumix s5.Which camera have you in mind to buy?
Hey Periklis, which 50mm lens are you using, as the autofocus on the A7iii with native Sony lenses is incredibly reliable from what we’ve found. We believe the S5 and xt4 are very well matched up! If you’re wanting to do a lot more photography too we’d recommend the xt4 but if you’re leaning more towards video the S5 is probably more future proof!
bro i have the cheap one 1.8 ,but is the only lens that compined with my previous sony a6300 did faster job.And yes i beleive too as you said ,that s5 is better option for video ,the only thing I am thinkink of buying fujixt4 is the 240 fps (for weddings in some cases) and the color science of fuji even though lumix s5 has great colors too
@@PERIKLISTSINTZAS we have experience with the X-T4 but not with the S5. The colours that come out of the Xt4 are usually very full and clean, and like you say the slow motion is quite nice, and very important when doing weddings. Both are excellent cameras however, we’re intrigued to learn what you choose in the end!
@@meliorstudios ok i will let you know ,maby i shall wait ,for xh2 and what will offer this new model and then i shall make the move ,so keep making videos you are awesome and very talented and when you buy a new camera let us all know what you have chosen
Got the A7IV, and TBH still miss the A7III..10-bit and 4K 60 on the IV is nice but there was something about the build quality on the III that has been unmatched
The A7iii is a great camera but if given the option the a7iv is definitely superior. I think the experience you’ll have with the A7iv in the long run will be much better than the a7iii. But true, the build quality on the A7iii is incredible! We hope you enjoy the A7iv, stoked to see what you create Alexander:)
We’ve seen it! And although the story is lacklustre, the image is unbelievably nice! And we’re so stoked to see the A7sii and the older A7 cameras get a good light shed on them, because if you light well, you’ll get really nice results
I am selling My gh5 and keep The a7iii For The hybrid reason. Low light and autofocus is good For Many sitsuations.. and i dont need to stress on The shoot. I dont do movies .. i do More commercial and dance/ music videos so a7iii IS perfect For those Jobs.. and while not much of Work right now is another reason i need to sell gh5. I wait Till next year and see If i go For S5 or a74
Exactly! Everyone’s need is different and it’s important to use a camera that works for you! Hope you have some awesome shoots with the A7iii. It’s a great camera
Hello! So I'm planning to buy an a7iii as my second camera ever, after my a6000 (But I've used other cameras at work, I'm using the fuji xt3 right now) Since I can only spend 2k euros, is this camera a good option? Or should I go for an a6500? Apart from the 16 50mm kit lens. I've only got a 30mm sigma 1.4 apsc.
Hey man! Sorry for the slow reply, did you end up choosing what camera you wanted to get? I would definitely recommend the A7iii to the A6500, simply for the body shape, battery life, cleaner sensor and the full frame imagery you're getting, tho that's just personal preference for us. But if you only have APSC glass it may wiser to go with the A6500
hello guys, and thanks first of all for everything. I would like to ask you why when I try to grade the clips, and I try to add contrast, use the primary curves, white balance, a black vignette is always show up on the image, and the contrast isn’t uniform throughout the image. Why ? I do some mistake ? has it ever happened to you? I film with Sony 35 1.8 slog2 ITU
Hey Paolo, thank you for taking the time to watch! A black vignette will usually show up due to the lens but we also use the Sony 35mm f1.8 but we never get a vignette, so that’s strange. However if you do push the image too much or increase the contrast too much you may get a vignette, that’s usually the case. This usually happens to use with some of our lenses when we try to increase the contrast past a certain point of the image. We hope that’s helpful
@@meliorstudios guys can I ask you why if I connect my andycine on 7iii, if I put 4k 25 fps mode I see the clean image on the external screen without settings, while if I change to mode 2 with 1080 100fps for slow motion, the external monitor replicates the monitor of the camera with all screen settings? Thank you
I have an almost identical setup plus a couple lenses and the only reason I would ever want to upgrade is for gyro stabilization on the newer sony cameras. Charger go brr
Better stabilisation for handheld work can be nice. Compared to larger cinema cameras it’s hard to add lots of weight to a rig to reduce micro jitters. Can’t wait to see what you decided in the future! And charger always charging haha 🔋
Hey guys! Congrats on your channel! I'm really enjoying your videos and tutorials over here in Bavaria. A question about the boxing match that you mention in this video: Do you also over expose HLG3 when shooting in a more extreme light situation ? I'm still struggling with artefacts (wich I first mistook for noise that I thought i could get rid of in da vinci studio) when I shoot a very contrasty scene with HLG3. Do you have any tips on that? thanks & keep up the great work!
Thanks Milltown! With HLG3 We perfectly expose so +/- 0 stops (not overexposed or underexposed) When shooting in bright conditions we often switch to S-log2 and in darker situations we choose to shoot in HLG3. Artifacts can be annoying but if you have the studio version of Resolve you can use the denoise tool which is often very powerful and can help remove the artifacts. We hope that's helpful!
I have the Sony a7r ii and use it for photography. But now i do more and more filmmaking, so i thought about buying a new camera. One for photography and one for videography. I am not sure which option is the best for me. The a7s ii is not that good anymore and the s iii is too expensive. The a7 iii is hybrid which wouldn't be worth it. Somebody has a recommendation? ^^
@@meliorstudios Okay, thank you! But i mostly got lenses and equipment for e-mount. I dont have that much of a budget to buy new lenses. Should i consider using it with an adapter? Isn't that bad for the quality and autofocus?
I have been following your work for a long time. Thanks for this. Thank you for the inspiration. A couple of days ago I shot my first video on a7iii: hJWGdbpEN-M (in RUclips search) Now I will try to shoot more and more often.
They're both the same cameras techically but with different bodies. If you prefer a larger body I'd suggest the A7iii, though if you prefer a lighter set up i'd suggest the A7c!
What camera will you be using for filmmaking this year? Are you looking to upgrade? We’d love to hear all about it:)
I owned the a7iii since November 2020, so this year it’s looking for some lenses and other gear
@@bernosmit4076 that’s awesome Makelt! Are there any lenses you’re eyeing up?

We’re excited to hear that Bekir. A good lens can make all the difference for sure. And yes we’ll add it to the description now
Been thinking of upgrading soon, either to a S1H or a Sony A7III, right now my current setup is a Canon EOS R paired with my Atomos Ninja V. The only thing I dont like about my camera is that it has a major crop when shooting 4K.
We would definitely say the S1H trumps the A7iii, it's even netflix approved. Doesn't it even have 6K?
@@meliorstudios I have used it once when shooting a wedding and it did have the option to shoot 6K, I just need to find a good deal on the used market. S1H plus all my Canon glass its gonna be crisp!
@@meliorstudios the Netflix approved is just for Netflix originals they want 10 bit 4k doubt many ppl will be shooting an original it may be overboard.
I'm trying my best on the A6600. Next upgrade will be the a7iii
Keep going man! We can’t wait to see what you create!
MANY THX--I have 2 a7111s--i cant afford to upgrade atm--would like 4k 60/120 fps :( have you used soemtinh glike topaz to upscale 1080P , if so any feedback 🙏
Whats your thoughts on Panasonic S5 compared to A7III?
We don’t know too much about the S5 but we’ve heard it’s a lot more powerful than the A7iii and had a better codec but we’re not too sure about the image quality
thank u for everything ，it so great
Thank you for taking the time to watch!
hey so planning to get a sony a7iii and wanted to know if the footage is compatible with the free version of davinci resolve ?
Yes it is compatible and works without having to purchase the studio version
Hey hey goat ! You never put the link of the speed booster that you use for your the canon lense on your a7iii
Hi ! I have a7iii for two months ,great camera, I am pleased with it and the only complain is that my previous a6300 had better autofocus at least with 50mm lens.Now i am planning to buy another one ,to sybstitude my g9 and I am betwwen Fuji xt4 and lumix s5.Which camera have you in mind to buy?
Hey Periklis, which 50mm lens are you using, as the autofocus on the A7iii with native Sony lenses is incredibly reliable from what we’ve found. We believe the S5 and xt4 are very well matched up! If you’re wanting to do a lot more photography too we’d recommend the xt4 but if you’re leaning more towards video the S5 is probably more future proof!
bro i have the cheap one 1.8 ,but is the only lens that compined with my previous sony a6300 did faster job.And yes i beleive too as you said ,that s5 is better option for video ,the only thing I am thinkink of buying fujixt4 is the 240 fps (for weddings in some cases) and the color science of fuji even though lumix s5 has great colors too
@@PERIKLISTSINTZAS we have experience with the X-T4 but not with the S5. The colours that come out of the Xt4 are usually very full and clean, and like you say the slow motion is quite nice, and very important when doing weddings. Both are excellent cameras however, we’re intrigued to learn what you choose in the end!
@@meliorstudios ok i will let you know ,maby i shall wait ,for xh2 and what will offer this new model and then i shall make the move ,so keep making videos you are awesome and very talented and when you buy a new camera let us all know what you have chosen
Why do you use slog2 instead of slog3 and when do you choose hlg3?
I have this camera. I need to learn how to use it properly. Can you help
We have lots of tutorials on the A7iii on our channel!
So do you recommend slog 2 ?
Got the A7IV, and TBH still miss the A7III..10-bit and 4K 60 on the IV is nice but there was something about the build quality on the III that has been unmatched
The A7iii is a great camera but if given the option the a7iv is definitely superior. I think the experience you’ll have with the A7iv in the long run will be much better than the a7iii. But true, the build quality on the A7iii is incredible! We hope you enjoy the A7iv, stoked to see what you create Alexander:)
an entire hollywood bluckbuster was filmed with the a7 ii (the posesion of hanna grace)
We’ve seen it! And although the story is lacklustre, the image is unbelievably nice! And we’re so stoked to see the A7sii and the older A7 cameras get a good light shed on them, because if you light well, you’ll get really nice results
I am selling My gh5 and keep The a7iii For The hybrid reason. Low light and autofocus is good For Many sitsuations.. and i dont need to stress on The shoot. I dont do movies .. i do More commercial and dance/ music videos so a7iii IS perfect For those Jobs.. and while not much of Work right now is another reason i need to sell gh5. I wait Till next year and see If i go For S5 or a74
Exactly! Everyone’s need is different and it’s important to use a camera that works for you! Hope you have some awesome shoots with the A7iii. It’s a great camera
Agree with everything but not so sure why you were reluctant to shoot 1080?
We just find 1080p gets too soft for what we need it for. But this of course can come down to the lens you use
are they compatible with my nikon lenses?
The Sony a7iii?
Hello! So I'm planning to buy an a7iii as my second camera ever, after my a6000 (But I've used other cameras at work, I'm using the fuji xt3 right now)
Since I can only spend 2k euros, is this camera a good option?
Or should I go for an a6500?
Apart from the 16 50mm kit lens. I've only got a 30mm sigma 1.4 apsc.
Hey man! Sorry for the slow reply, did you end up choosing what camera you wanted to get? I would definitely recommend the A7iii to the A6500, simply for the body shape, battery life, cleaner sensor and the full frame imagery you're getting, tho that's just personal preference for us. But if you only have APSC glass it may wiser to go with the A6500
@@meliorstudios went for the a7iii haha
@@vagasbundo Nice!! what were your reasons for it?
Where can I find your LUTs?
Unfortunately we don’t use any luts at the moment:(
hello guys, and thanks first of all for everything. I would like to ask you why when I try to grade the clips, and I try to add contrast, use the primary curves, white balance, a black vignette is always show up on the image, and the contrast isn’t uniform throughout the image. Why ? I do some mistake ? has it ever happened to you? I film with Sony 35 1.8 slog2 ITU
Hey Paolo, thank you for taking the time to watch! A black vignette will usually show up due to the lens but we also use the Sony 35mm f1.8 but we never get a vignette, so that’s strange. However if you do push the image too much or increase the contrast too much you may get a vignette, that’s usually the case. This usually happens to use with some of our lenses when we try to increase the contrast past a certain point of the image. We hope that’s helpful
@@meliorstudios guys can I ask you why if I connect my andycine on 7iii, if I put 4k 25 fps mode I see the clean image on the external screen without settings, while if I change to mode 2 with 1080 100fps for slow motion, the external monitor replicates the monitor of the camera with all screen settings? Thank you
I have an almost identical setup plus a couple lenses and the only reason I would ever want to upgrade is for gyro stabilization on the newer sony cameras. Charger go brr
Better stabilisation for handheld work can be nice. Compared to larger cinema cameras it’s hard to add lots of weight to a rig to reduce micro jitters. Can’t wait to see what you decided in the future! And charger always charging haha 🔋
Its amazing . .
It’s a great camera
@@meliorstudios got The same and also gh5.. stopped caring of new cameras
What's the beautiful music?
Hey guys! Congrats on your channel! I'm really enjoying your videos and tutorials over here in Bavaria.
A question about the boxing match that you mention in this video: Do you also over expose HLG3 when shooting in a more extreme light situation ?
I'm still struggling with artefacts (wich I first mistook for noise that I thought i could get rid of in da vinci studio) when I shoot a very contrasty scene with HLG3.
Do you have any tips on that?
thanks & keep up the great work!
Thanks Milltown! With HLG3 We perfectly expose so +/- 0 stops (not overexposed or underexposed) When shooting in bright conditions we often switch to S-log2 and in darker situations we choose to shoot in HLG3. Artifacts can be annoying but if you have the studio version of Resolve you can use the denoise tool which is often very powerful and can help remove the artifacts.
We hope that's helpful!
@@meliorstudios thanks !
@@milltownsessions happy to help!
It’s time to upgrade from my Sony a6400
Haha, no matter what it is, we’re stoked to see what you create!
I have the Sony a7r ii and use it for photography. But now i do more and more filmmaking, so i thought about buying a new camera. One for photography and one for videography. I am not sure which option is the best for me. The a7s ii is not that good anymore and the s iii is too expensive. The a7 iii is hybrid which wouldn't be worth it. Somebody has a recommendation? ^^
Look into the bmpcc6kpro :)
The Bmpcc6k pro is a beast of camera!
We definitely recommend looking into the bmpcc cameras if you want to dive more into videos, the value you get for the prices are unmatched currently
@@meliorstudios Okay, thank you! But i mostly got lenses and equipment for e-mount. I dont have that much of a budget to buy new lenses. Should i consider using it with an adapter? Isn't that bad for the quality and autofocus?
A7iii stabilization sucks, I upgraded to the a7IV and its night and day difference, the ibis alone is already much better
It’s a great upgrade!

To the camera?
Do you mentor?
Have just replied to your email 🙏🏽
@@meliorstudios I really apreciate it!
I have been following your work for a long time. Thanks for this. Thank you for the inspiration. A couple of days ago I shot my first video on a7iii: hJWGdbpEN-M (in RUclips search) Now I will try to shoot more and more often.
Thanks for supporting the channel! And we’ll definitely have a watch of your video 🙏🏽
Sony a7c or sony a7iii for filmmaking in 2023 ? i have cruel doubts 🥲
They're both the same cameras techically but with different bodies. If you prefer a larger body I'd suggest the A7iii, though if you prefer a lighter set up i'd suggest the A7c!
