6:27 is the best rolling shutter b-roll I've ever seen.
😂😂😂😂
The same :DD
So glad you made this!! Can’t wait to watch!
Hope you like it!
Just discovered your channel and love the simplicity and clarity of your content. It's not overwhelming to watch. ❤
Thank you! That’s what I’m going for haah
@@KofiYeboah well, you did an awesome j work! Thank you so much for your content brother!
I had an A74 and it's a great camera, no question about it. I started having overheating issues and that I could not tolerate. Enter the FX30 with built-in fan. I've had no further issues of overheating. The A74 was not my photo camera as I use a Canon R6.
Loved your comparison. I was on the fence on which one to get as a B Camera and you swayed me to the FX30. Thanks!
Anytime !!
I look at the used Sony A74’s but after using the FX30, it truly is the camera I have been waiting for. But now thanks to channels like yours, the FX6 is something I’d love to upgrade to one day hahaha
Ahah hopefully by then nothing new comes out 👀🤣
The amount of effort gone into making this video is crazy! Subscribed.
Thank you 😊🙏🏾
They are both great cameras. I have 2 A7IVs for photography | Run&Gun video work and 3 FX30s for my video podcasts | Interview setups. The A74 is amazing but in my tests it does overheat after 45m+ shoots in 30 or 60 FPS 4K. At 24 FPS it doesn't overheat but I only tested it to an hour and 30 mins. For long videos or interview setups or podcasts, the FX30 is king. No worries about overheating and can practically be on all day no issues.
I found that out the hard way unfortunately! 3 FX30s👀 you’re not playing around !
Thanks for sharing your experience! I was worried about the A7IV overheating issues, but don't think I'll be shooting anything over 45m+. I'm mostly shooting 2-3 minute clips with the highest being around maybe 15 minutes.. mostly travel/family run&gun videos. Do you think this style of video work would run into overheating issues?
@@draftzero it will definitely serve you well, moreover A74 is better camera for photography
@@TuanAnhNguyen-gb3wz My wallet decided to stick with the ZV-e10 for now, until I get better. At the end of the day the low light / shaky footage isn't that bad (main reasons why I'd want to upgrade), but I love the compactness and I'm only really doing this for family.
@@draftzero sure, if you're going to mostly use for videography it's a good choice
The most constructive opinion on RUclips according these two cameras. Well done, bro!
Oh thanks man 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Really considering the fx30 as my vlog and video camera while I do my hiking and landscape photography with my a7r3.
Nice !
This was a great break down ❤
Thank you !!
nice review, so if we compared, price wise, the sony a7iii and the fx30 which are the same price here in Spain, for a youtuber doing basically only video, would you go for the fx30?
We are shooting with Blackmagic which is amazing and planning on getting the FX 30 as well.
I had a pocket 4K and loved it when I had it 😍
@@KofiYeboah They are all such great cameras isn't? Love working on projects with those cameras. Looking forward to the Sony as well.
I currently own an a7r2. Im planing to get the fx30 for video and keep using the a7r2 for photography and social media content. I’m just a little bit unsure if the fx30 will handle low light conditions. I know the a7r2 doesn’t, and that is why I’m also considering saving more money for the a7iv
But my budget only allows the fx30
Personally, my main camera is an Fx6 as well, but I have been looking for a good quality b camera that can closely match the Fx6 video quality. I just recently purchased the a7IV, but haven't received it yet, so we'll see how the image quality stacks up. I bought a DJI Ronin RS3 and pairing that with my Fx6 has caused some issues with balancing and vibration, so i'm hoping that getting a smaller camera like the a7IV will alleviate some of those problems. Great and very informative video. Thanks Kofi 👍✌
Not a problem!!
This is a hard choose. I already own a Fuji XT5 (Photography) & Sony A6400 (Filmmaking). I'm thinking about trading in my Sony a6400 for the A7IV since its full frame, & could be used as a hybrid camera. But the FX30 is cheaper and could be used with my Sigma trio lens. 🤔
That’s tough 😅
Fx30 has an issue along with FX3 with that TC cable....Sony knows about the issue but does nothing so using a split cable and sending TC into one of the channel of the mic plug. So a7iv can be used with TC also
Regarding rolling shutter; it's worth mentioning although the A7IV looks worse, if you put it into crop mode the rolling shutter actually outperforms the FX30 which is technically already in crop mode. Just something I've found while researching for my upgrade :)
That’s probably accurate ahahi really hope no one uses their camera like this though haha
@@KofiYeboah Why not? If you needed to grab a fast moving shot I would think crop mode is perfectly acceptable depending on the shot context.
@@SamNEllas no no ! I meant the swinging the cameras around lol
@@KofiYeboah Haha for sure! I actually appreciate the swing test you did as I'm in a serious dilemma between these two cams. I saw some FX30 shots from a train and it was a pleasure to see the street light poles actually straight. Gah.. really time for me to upgrade.
@@SamNEllaswhich did you go for!?? I can't pick!! Because the FX-30 doesn't have a burst mode for photos only taking photos 1fps I'm worried it'll be bad for sports photography, even though im not even sure if I'll do that too much.. I just began doing this stuff for a living, and I guess the most frequent sport I'll be shooting is jiu-jitsu for my tournaments so I don't know if it really matters that much. Also rhe rolling shutter is another big worry, I don't want the footage of a 1400$ camera to look choppier than an IPhone you know... I feel like it really breaks a video quality sometimes from my research. I need one that has dual SD card slots for sure.. but it's so many camera at so many different prices I'm feeling more lost now than when I started this research! Any recommendations?
I'm primarily focused on video, so I LOVE my FX-30. It's my baby
It’s an amazing camera 💯
I shoot with an A6300, I’m a photographer first. But looking forward to purchase a FX30 probably next week! I think all formats have their pros and cons, it’s what we do with what we got actually. I was looking to replace my A6300 for an A7IV but truth be told, the A6300 has been a wonderful workhorse amd still is. So financially-wise, the FX30 would be the way now that I’m starting video. Besides, 90% of the time the client just wants a well done product, doesn’t care if you used bare hands. Peace bro!
You right my guy!
Same here, I'm starting out video with A6400, and got tired with the fact that the camera was having noise and with the 8 bit color, everything seems to be ..."lmao" with color grading, And I have to upscale the video to get the best result. Though for photos, I'm doing just fine.
I'm getting the FX30 tomorrow, hoping it could change the way I make my videos
@@willie1155 that’s great man! Let me know how it goes!
I’ve upgraded from the a6500 to fx30 . The footage and the quality is amazing but prepare to spend 300 bucks on a decent card and your editing and rendering time to triple 🥵
@@boomboombaby9140 gotta get those new MacBook M1’s my bro! I got the first Gen in 2021, and I can edit footage on the fx30,fx3,fx6 and a7iv👍🏾 even did a Komodo review on it
Vera good video!
Thank you very much! :D
Great video, and now which camera I’m gonna cop………FX30 all the way! BTW, I’m a DIEHARD Pittsburgh Pirates fan, my brutha……PROPS!
RTJR! 🍻
I’m totally from Toronto, don’t tell people 😂
@@KofiYeboah mums the word, broham. 🤣
Team a74… I feel you get so much but I would definitely buy the fx30 if I was primarily video 100%
love them both !
Hi Kofi thx for the video it's still a hard choice. Ok I'm still at the point of wanting to become a film maker. Ideally wildlife and there well the fx30 helps with the 1.5 crop and the fan but the a7iv is full frame with better low light and the option to go to APS-C. for wildlife I'm looking at the Sigma 60-600 but not sure when that will happen I might also get into real estate video where the a7 iv will be better for wide angel lenses. Now over here in Norway there's only a $315 difference between the to. Before the Pandemic I use to be a pro photographer but lost my safari business and gear due to it but going forward I want to do video 100% which makes the fx3 actually the camera of choice but I think I'm leaning towards the a7 IV as its better priced I think. What do you think based on the price difference for me and for what I'm interested to film ps and being in Norway it's pretty dark in the winter which is another reason for the a7 iv... thx
I think you’re already set on the a7iv so why not try that !
The only reason I’m going a7iv is because I’m still primarily a photographer
Yeah that makes hella sense
I currently own an FX3, but I'm considering buying another camera for photography and as a close-up camera for interviews. I know the A7IV is a better camera for photography, but I'm concerned about its tendency to overheat during extended interview shoots. What do you think I should buy?"
Thanks for the great information, just what I was looking for 👊 I have a A73 that I love except for the non flip out screen but have been looking into the FX30 for a second shooters.
Question??? can you use The same A73 and A74 E mount Lenses on the FX30?
Course you can ! Check out my video on full frame lenses on apsc cameras🫡☺️
@@KofiYeboah dude thank you. Going to check that out now. You rock!
Yeah sure. Fx30 is E mount the same as a7 series
What would you say bettwen a A7III and a FX30?
FX30 all day!!!!! Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome!
Just ordered my A7 IV soooo I guess I’m on that team. But but if the fox 30 shot 10 fps I’d definitely be on that team lol
Yeah for photos the a7iv is unreal
Great video, I have a A7IV and just purchased a fx30. Trying to decide if I should use the fx30 as a A cam or B cam? What would you use for your A Cam?
I use both and switch 😅 if I’m in controlled spaces, I love my fx30, if I need more lowlight, the a7iv
@@KofiYeboah thanks that what I was thinking. I think I’ll gravitate for the fx30 as my A cam when I’m in need of long recordings if I’m doing some interviews
Team FX-30 all the way for the video!
Aha yup 😤
lol any one literally feel like the a7iv is a better for video than the fx30? I mean the fx30 has the camera body but other than that their mostly identical! Great vid.
I like it when my camera doesn’t overheat though 🥲
I plan to do some podcast in the near future. I have a Sony FX6. If I get a Sony A7IV. I can just use the full frame lenses that I already have. It would also be nice to have a camera that I can take photos with as well. I have a Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II, Sony FE 14mm f/1.8 GM, and a Sony FE 24-105 mm F4 G OSS lens. Would I be fine using the Sony A7IV to stream a second angle during podcast?
I had it in a super long form video and it overheated twice 😅
@@KofiYeboah Ok thank you for letting me know. I purchased an an FX30 instead. Just waiting on it to come in the mail.
I already have the a7iv and I’m going back to school to do film school for documentary and sports. Reselling my a7iv they’d gonna give me about 1700 was thinking if jumping ship to Blackmagic since I edit in resolve and could use B-Raw. But I lose so many features like autofocus and worse dynamic range and only gain the higher codecs and 2.6k 120. So I started looking at fx30 and it’s a really hard choice I don’t know if the change is worth it - I’d have to get an apple computer to convert ProRes to DNG for resolve (annoying) or switch back to premiere from resolve which is hard to do once you’ve seen what it can do. So to get the most of the fx30 I have to also buy a new computer and for the differences from the a7iv it’s hard to justify going either way black magic or fx30. Any advice? Thinking I’m probably gonna stick to the a7iv even though it has some huge drawbacks for me.
If you don’t want to spend money , I’d just work with what you got 👍🏾
I am confused between a7iv zve1 and fx30. For vlogging and cinematic style video. Which should i get
Any of them really
How about shooting with the fx30 in a sunny day with out viewfinder, can you see what are you shooting?
I’d suggest a monitor, neither are great on their own in that situation
I pocketed a list of cameras for me to buy. I'm currently confused between the Sony FX30 or Lumix S5II, which do you think is better? or is there a better of the two in this price class? I'm looking for the best video/cinema dedicated camera. your answer will help me a lot. Thank You
I’ve only used the fx30 so I can’t help you as I don’t comment on cameras I’ve never used
I have a new tamron 28-75mm e mount rxd. Got it last year but havent used it… i wanna get back to videography but dont wanna bring many accessories with me… is the fx30 good enough? Id love to have something with good ibis and low light capabilities… great for conventions, theme parks, short sketches, traveling
Coming from a7 mk1, panasonic g7, and t2i lol
You’ll be fine 👍🏾
Hello I have the zve10 and I want a higher frame rate camera with zero crop. Can fx30 shoot at 4k 50fps with zero crop? Does the IBIS of the fx30 super smooth?
Im on NTSC so Idk about PAL , I doubt it , the IBIS is fine imo, but Im not treating it like its a gimbal by any stretch
FX30 for me 🔥
✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Say you want to use the A7iv as your A Cam and the FX30 as your B Cam can you match the videos out of camera to they look the same or do you have to do all of that in post?
They’re pretty friggen close tbh
@@KofiYeboah Thanks! On side note I just bought your LUTS :)
As I do photography I would like the Sony A74.
Nice !
Ha ha "The RUclips Algorithm" nice one Kofi man:)
Ahah algorithm makes us do crazy things
purely on video quality only, whats better A74 or FX30?
You gon have to watch the whole video brotha
Brace yourself, this is going to be a bit long! I originally wanted to start my RUclips channel in 2020, then Covid hit and I haven't gotten it off the ground (Shot a clip in Zion National Park and a clip at home, but haven't watched [hey, everyone's first video are going to be rough!], much less loaded it into Final Cut Pro). I am coming from a photography background, but have zero experience in video. Originally purchased the Canon 77D for it's dual pixel autofocus and wanted a camera dedicated to video recording as I wasn't sure how hard it would be on the sensor and didn't want to put the potential wear and tear on my stills cameras. Then the 4K videos became popular and I love the image quality of the skilled RUclipsrs(Gerald Undone, Dustin Abbott, Potato Jet et al), I decided to upgrade my gear. Having purchased, but not taken delivery of the FX30 (New Item - Coming Soon!) I am anxious to get things started.
My dilemma: I have watched you and other RUclipsrs, but really don't have a good grasp on the different Sony recording modes (XAVC HS vs S vs S-I) . I understand the basic concepts of sampling differences (10bit 4:2:2 vs 4:2:0), Codecs (H265 vs H264) and All I vs IPB, but lack a grasp of their practical meaning, aside from the obvious memory storage differences (which makes me wonder if I shouldn't shoot in just 1080 so I don't run out of storage space after every video shoot). The practical side of using S Cinetone vs S Log (Jeven Dovey says he only shoots in Log if he has extremes in the dynamic range of a scene) versus ProRes/ProRes RAW, but have purchased a Ninja V. And lastly, the concept of dual base ISO (I have watch the referenced video) and am left understanding 1) the camera is somewhat optimized to record in one of the two base iso's (so don't waste my time shooting in other ISO's, but maybe there is a hidden advantage if you know what you are doing[from a different video]) and 2) FF cameras do better with low light/noise (A7S2, FX3 or in your case A7IV). What I have not had is that "ah ha" moment, despite watching a myriad of videos.
Solutions: You obviously know your audience based on your RUclips statistics, so it may not make sense for you to address these topics in your channel. But I know I would benefit from a Sony FX30 miniseries on the basics of shooting a RUclips video, from initial shooting settings and the practical results of those decisions (Disclaimer, it will be a Playlist series on my channel once it is up, as I think it could be wildly successful, ie documenting my struggles through the process of producing video content.) As a skilled videographer, these are probably pretty elementary topics for you, and explains why nobody I have been able to find on RUclips, has broken it down to the "Dummies" level. As a member of your audience who hasn't begun to crawl yet, the idea of transitioning from crawling to coasting, to walking and eventually running seems like a Herculean task at this stage and has my head spinning.
Thanks for listening!
That’s not a bad idea! I generally have a few videos on settings and applications, especially the fx30 settings video, but a series’s that’s specifically RUclips is hard because there’s so many types of RUclipsrs
@@KofiYeboah I will comb through your videos, I know you have the Cine EI on the FX30, but will look for other settings videos. Thanks again for your videos, they are helpful. Cheers!
Is the fx30 really bad with photos? Sounds like it based off of some of the comments. I will likely be taking more photos to start getting some money in but what I really want to do is video, so whilst I am leaning toward the Fx30, the comments are making me re-think it because now I'm thinking the photos will not be good. The actual cameras I'm torn between are the a6400 and fx30. I'm a total newbie so some help deciding would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
I posted photos in the community tab, they aren’t bad tbh, the Sony a7iv has objectively better photos but honestly if you’re video first , in some ways you’ll be ok
Yes it’s bad lol
Still waiting on my FX30, but the following video relieved my concerns about the FX30 for stills (fortunately, I have a dedicated stills camera, so the choice was far less difficult). Obviously it's not something you would primarily shoot action with, but if you want to shoot stills, it seems more than capable: ruclips.net/video/4lQ4K6hzwcU/видео.html
Good luck with your decision and hope you are happy with whichever you choose!
thanks for all the replies. Now after watching a few more videos I am leaning toward the 6600 as it seems to be a better all-arounder
The Sony A74 is on my list
Ooh good choice 👍🏾✊🏾
Wait for the Panasonic S5IIX. You get full frame that doesn't overheat and more video-centric and cheaper than A7IV
At this point I’m too deep in my professional career to wait for one camera to come out even if it has better features, cause then Sony will drop another camera 6 months later and I would of been better off staying 😂
@@KofiYeboah That's the logical way of doing things. I started out with Canon RF when I went to mirrorless because I thought, I could use the RF lenses on my next upgrade to RED camera. However, somewhere around my career, I switch to Cinema lenses and the reasoning was null.
@@Slipsch ahah the pain of realizing our camera choice was a trap 😂
I was looking into this too but I just can't justify the lack of lens selection. There is just so many lens options and brands to pick from on the Sony line.
Please suggest me lens Sony fx30
6:17 🤣🤣🤣
✌🏾😂😂
BTW. Did you not notice that prores from atomos has lower quality in fx30 than internal codecs? Internal uses full sensor and downsamples to 4k. Atomos gets only 4k feed so you have actually micro 4/3 format not APSC. I have both fx30 and zv-e1 (in price of fx3 so for me great deal). But atomos ninja footage on fx30 looks like crap compared to full frame downsampled zv-e1 same for fx3. For me recording with atomos and fx30 is just a waste.
I actually don’t have a ton of problems using the pro res raw when I do 😅
@@KofiYeboah It is not the case of issues but quality. Probably on youtube it is still fine but what happens when you record with atomos with fx30 you are sending 4k sensor data instead of full sensor 6k downsampled to 4k. So you are using even the smaller sensor size like micro 4/3 instead full apsc sensor. It will introduce the additional crop to 1.5x apsc sensor and you have less megapixels available. In the end internal codes look better due to downsampled sensor, sharper and there is lack of additional crop compared to Atomos Raw
I think it is simillar to 60 fps compared to 120 fps as quality goes as in 120 there is also a crop and I am not sure if it downsamples from 6 anymore.
But it is creazy that ZV-E1 vlogger camera has no issues like that. You can even use the auto-tracking features and record internally but to atomos send the full uncroped sensor data. So you have 2 camera angles in one take. Or have active stabe and no stabe footage. You can also have 1.5 clear image zoom recorded internally and 1.0 feed to atomos at the same time.
@@nowyrozdzial it is a more pricey full frame camera the same sensor as the fx3/fx6, which is great 👍🏾!
Sony A7m4 Fan
Love it’s photography !
Team A7SIII ;)
I’ve still never used one !
@@KofiYeboah I got it as a gift from my wife. After I replaced a7c with a7iv. Now I have a7iv and a7s3. You make great videos.
Please speak more slowly. Ha🎉d to follow so fast. But thanks for this.
Try playing back at .7 speed 🫡
P.S. TEAM A7IV! Who's with me?!
After that OH on set I can’t be on the same team haha
Well, not me😅 fx30
@@gatisrimss me neither 😂
I think in low light in crop mode the Sony A74 is better as it has less megapixels to deal with in crop mode than the Sony FX30
I haven’t tried but potentially yah!
Good❤
