    As someone who shoots mostly action design/stunt work which incorporates a lot of dynamic camera movement and fast moving subjects; I would more than happily accept some low light/processor functionality for the elimination of rolling shutter. The a9 iii is one of the most exciting new cameras for those of us in the stunt industry.

    Thanks for making this quick video. You answered the main question everyone has been wondering: how does global shutter effect dynamic range in the next generation of sony cameras? Luckily, it doesn't seem to take as big of hit as I thought it would, it just takes some extra steps to get there. Given this does seem like a photo first camera, I'm really excited to see how sony will implement Global Shutter in their videocentric products moving forward.

    More than anything, I'm excited to FINALLY see 1/48th and 1/96th shutter options! :D This could be them getting the nuts and bolts in place to provide the shutter angle option in a future firmware update? Recently I attended InterBEE (the Japanese NAB equivalent) with my Canon R5C and stopped by the Sony booth. I looked at the FX3, made a point of asking "where's the option for shutter angle" to the rep, and let them dig through the menus to find it (of course I knew it wasn't there). I then pointed out the R5C's simple shutter angle option and asked them to pass it up to management that we filmmakers NEED it! Who knows, maybe they listened?! Thanks for a great review digging into what we all want to know about the a9III and DR :) Happy new year!

      Tell me, if you can figure out 1/48ss is the same as the 180deg shutter angle. Then why does it matter? It's like someone complaining they can't read kilometres vs miles. You just gotta learn and experience the speed to get accustomed to it for your needs

    • @JericTamayo
      @JericTamayo 10 месяцев назад +4

    • @visceralpsyche
      @visceralpsyche 10 месяцев назад +6

      ​@@JericTamayoThe main reason for the shutter angle option is that when you switch to high speed framerates (for slomo) it automatically handles the adjustment so you always have a 180° shutter. The reason for wanting 1/48th specifically is to avoid light flicker.

  • @basekicks1133
    @basekicks1133 10 месяцев назад +4

    Those tests are irrational since they lack any sense of unification. Applying the same format, such as ProRes, and analyzing RAW signals are the best ways to evaluate cameras. Sony cameras have been so excellent at reducing noise and it's used to force better DR score.
    Because 12 stops is the limit of 12bit ADC, I think that all consumer cameras have roughly 11.5-12 stops of native DR without post processing.
    Depending on the resolution, every camera could receive a 1-2 stop boost with noise reduction.
    You can simply trick the Imatest by applying significant NR to an 8K file from an A1, oversampling it to a 4K, and still receiving a higher score than Alexa Mini.

  • @MikeMarrah
    @MikeMarrah 10 месяцев назад +34

    As long as the dynamic range is actually there, I'm totally fine with doing my own noise reduction. Especially with the AI advancements Divinci and Topaz have had in the last year or so. I'll take the sharper more detailed image 9 times out of 10. Reminds me of how the fx6 to prores raw has worse noise performance than the fx3 because the fx6 raw doesnt have the same internal noise reduction algorithm that the fx3/a7siii does. So this is totally useable to me. Make the a9iii my new primary, and have the fx30 as a bcam and zv-e1 as a lowlight broll cam.

    Awesome video man! You answered every question I had about the dynamic range as well as confirmed some of my original thoughts. I shoot on the a7SIII and Alpha 1 and have/had no intention of ever switching to the A9 body. But, with Sony going to a global shutter on this camera they will surely make the switch to at least one of their more video centric cameras so it's definitely nice to keep up with the tech. With how low the rolling shutter is on both of my cameras as it sits I only see the global shutter as a marginal upgrade when it comes to video. However, the low light performance between my cameras vs the A9 III seems to still be where the gap is. Then again, we all know Sony will make it better over time so it's just another thing for me to get excited about in the future! Anyways I'm just waiting to see them fulfill their commitment to giving me my firmware updates they promised! Hahahaha even though I'm fairly certain my recording will be no different afterwards... it's just the follow through at this point!

    Two thoughts:
    1. How computationally expensive is processing every image to reduce noise before writing to the card, as we suspect the A7IV, etc is doing? Is it enough that at 120 frames per second it’s a limitation? If so I can imagine a desire to keep lower frame rates consistent to avoid “reduced dynamic range” at higher frame rates.
    2. AI image processing is progressing so rapidly that having a less processed raw file to start with, giving the AI the most info/ options to work with, seems a fundamental advantage over processing in camera, and one that will grow in time.
    I wonder if one or both of these impacted Sony’s thinking re internal processing?

Man even if you are not using this camera you are Gerald Undone and this a huge thing for videographers. get deep a little because we trust YOU and we need to know these things about this camera. do like you A7siii review or FX6 review. what's the color like compared to the FX line?

    Gerald, I have a stupid question about sensors. If it is a digital sensor, why would it ever have to “clip” on the high end? As the pixel receiving light nears 100% why not just return a smaller value? It would obviously give HDR vibes and look unnatural in certain circumstances but it seems like it could help in a lot of circumstances to just stop taking in light at some point… it is digital so it could be programmed to have an effectively shorter shutter speed per pixel.
    Im just curious

    Hi there Gerald Undone community. I'm searching for a youtuber channel I used to watch back in the day which I cant remember the name. It was a guy and his wife and usually worked with a close friend who is an actor. They usually made fiction content, vlogs and filmed high quality material for stock footage webs. I remember they making BTS videos about a fiction space production.

    Gerald, I'm sticking to my FX30 for film/video work, but interested in this camera for stills. Will you be doing a look into the A9 III still image output?

    Would be intertaining to see the new improved Z-cam again on your show... they did all you asked for from last video.
    And a updated C70 with all the new updates that change the camera totally in all recording modes including the RAW
    Looking forward to see the new C500 mark 3 video from you soon 😎 waiting in my chair

    I don't mind extra noise to eliminate rolling shutter completely, but at 1.5k increase in price from A9II, considering the higher price and worse image quality. I'm not so sure. Of course this camera is targeted at photographer instead of videographer but with all the video features and stuff, one cannot simply deny that this is not just a photographer's camera. Looking forward to see what Sony's does with the FX3 Mark II.

    At this point in my life I’m a hybrid shooter for my day job. I own the original A9 and an FX3. I’ve wanted to upgrade the A9 to something that can match the SLOG3 and 10-bit color for a few reasons, but mainly so I can use the upgrade as a B cam when I’m shooting interviews in my freelance work. Despite the A7IV having an easier image out of camera, the photography aspects the body has at this current moment make it more attractive even at the price point.
    I do think I will no longer need a photo camera however in a few months. If that’s the case, I’ll more than likely end up with a second FX3 body

    Deleting rolling shutter is worth it. Im buying the moment it arrives at my country. Thanks for the video. Would be nice to see if it overheats in "webcam" mode while recording

    It's the price you pay for parallelization. you've got MILLIONS of routes for information to pass. Definitely likely that way more will be iffy (noisy). It's a really cool function that has a LOT of improvement to show. Im excited about 2-3 cameras down the line that implement a more efficient data correction algorithm, then feeds that into some sort of kalman filter to make predictions on the right shade/hue for the pixel. but then again, im just ranting. Thanks!

    I would love to see a real world rolling shutter video comparison video. ie not a whip pan or footage of a fan. Some real world examples could be recording video from a vehicle bouncing over rough pavement, or maybe some sports video? What difference does rolling shutter make to a vlogger, run n gun solo documentary shooter, short film camera?

    • @danh2716
      @danh2716 10 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed. It would be cool to see real world comparisons between a regular/slow read sensor, a fast stacked sensor, and this sensor. I currently shoot highschool sports video with a fast read stacked sensor, and I can't say that rolling shutter is ever evident in the footage. But I am not prone to do any whip-pans.

    Wondering if the A1mk2 will build upon this with a higher MP sensor and less noise.

    A full stop difference in actual use is fairly significant for certain uses (like landscape, or low light event shooting). The tech seems like it's almost there, maybe another iteration or two.

  • @Framesbyfrisby

    Beautiful video as always!
    Question! 🙋🏽‍♂️ so we are compromising, dynamic range, and more noisier image with the color shift at higher ISO? For a global shutter?
    Also, I do recognize this is the first attempt at global shutter, so Sony’s not going to get it perfect like red. However, I think as a video first type of guy I think my FX6 and A7rV is just good of a combo!
    I don’t know I was really thinking about pulling the trigger on this one for photos but it seems like the A1 still is the better all overall hybrid camera

    Do you think they can get more stops out of the sensor in a potential successor of the FX3?
    Maybe we‘ll get control over NR in camera

    Great video review as always! Looks like the DR will be good enough for who will need to eliminate rolling shutter. For its maximum shooting speed though, will it max out the buffer quick in the product version?
