Just bought an fx3 and just finished watching this video and just want to thank you for putting the time and effort to make the transition to a new camera so much easier for others. Truly appreciate you!
thanks for this! Just snagged this camera for making my short form content and these settings (and the Phantom LUT recommendation) are really coming in clutch
This is the missing user manual! It’s a shame Sony did not even bother to make a viable one in the first place, but you did sooo much better than they would ever do. Sony needs to award you a medal a few free FX-3’s!
This video is so so good. I just got into the fx3 and watched a few other basic camera run downs and this one by far is the best. The way you break everything down was so helpful. Thanks a ton!
This video was so helpful - I have been shooting on FX3 and FX 6 but had to share the camera(s) with others on our team. But now I just got my very own and am setting up for "me". Using your guide to get more dialed in and learn what some of the deeper menu item even mean.
Josh, I want to say thank you very much, I am a cinematographer and I am using Venice, Venice 2 , Alexa or so but When I need to use FX3 as a side cam and didn't know anything about it and I didn't have time to spend with FX3 by luckily I found your this video and it helps me in quick period of time. You covered every thing with this video. Again I appreciate it for this work. 🙏🙏
Exactly what I needed. Coming from a lifelong Canon user, this helped me out tremendously. No filler content. Straight to the point! Loved it! Thank you!
Man, you are awesome. I can't believe I am learning this for free. Thank you for making our life easy and keep up the great work. It inspires us to give back to the other creators as well. Cheers
Thanks to you I finally understand how to expose the right way for S-Log outdoors in run & gun situations along with how to color correct better. The exposure meter had never made any sense to me, and has always messed up the quality of my videos, until now. You explained to manually expose, instead of letting the camera do the guessing. Also the color correction part of your video makes more sense to me now than any other videos I have seen out there on RUclips. One million thanks again and can’t wait to start filming soon, the right way. You gained a Subscriber!
Man I found your channel when cine ei mode was introduced and your tutorials made the most sense to me. I just went through the whole video and tweaked a bit of settings in the camera. Mega useful stuff here! Keep it up
Same, that el cine mode video was fantastic. This one was great as well. While it's comforting to know I knew 90% of this, it was still an extremely good refresher and well made. Thanks Josh, just subbed
Dude. Just got my FX3. I'm familiar with the A7iii and A7RiV. Now, after watching this video, I feel so much more comfortable around the FX3. A really great primer, and higly recommended to anyone that got their hands on this great camera. Thanks a million for all the time and effort you put into this video. It really helped. New subscriber! Peace!
Excellent content Josh. Just updated my FX3 this morning after contacting Sony. I have the new Macbook M1 and the new software was not cooperating. We switched to an older Intel Mac and I was able to do the upgrade. I just watched this entire video and I think you have done all of the viewers a big favour so thanks again. Keep up your great content. Cheers from the West Coast.
Thank you so much! Yeah sometimes updating Sony cameras with Macs can be tricky. It is frustrating. I was surprised that I couldn't do these latest firmware updates with the SD card since the camera has that option in it.
Oh man, this is so helpful. I've been struggling to figure out all these settings on the FX3 and I feel so much more comfortable now. I plan on coming back to this video whenever I forget something or want to see how something works. It's like my bible for 90% of everything there is to know about this camera. One thing I'm struggling with are the picture profiles. With the settings shown in this video, they can't even be chosen. I'm left wondering what they're even for and how they can be useful to me. There's also so many networking and connection options that I am completely lost as to where to start. I'll certainly check your stuff first for that and anything else I need to know. Thank you!
One of the things I love about Sony is how customizable everything is. Most of the customizations you landed on sound terrible to me, but that's fine because it works for you, haha. I'm glad we can choose how to set up our own gear in a way that works best for us instead of being told what the universal one best way is and needing to find workarounds for all the stuff we won't use.
Josh, thank you so much for your wisdom, experience and generosity. After using an A7SIII for three years, I just switched to the FX3. Right out of the box, I realized I had some catching up to do. You convinced me that it was time to adopt CineEI. Your reconfiguration of some of the buttons is brilliant. You have saved me so much trial and error - mostly error. Again, thank you for all you do to share your knowledge and experience.
Thank you so much, Josh!!! I just picked up the FX 3 on Monday and a lot of the content on YT is before the 3.00 firmware update. I'm so glad I found your tutorial!! I found this so helpful!!
I rarely comment on videos, but this was too good not to. I have an FX3 on the way and I learned a ton from you here. Thank you for sharing your deep knowledge in such an approachable/non-intimidating way!
Looks like everyone beat me to it saying something positive. My new fx3 is pretty much all set to go thanks to this video. I was totally confused and questioning my choice in purchasing this. Now I get it. I’ll probably use your ideas to customize my a74.
Thank you very much for the incredible amount of information and time put into this. I watched your video several times before getting my FX3. When I finally got it, it felt like I could just pick up the camera and go shoot meaningful things with it right away. 1000 times thank you.
Really appreciate the time and effort you put into this, watched the whole thing all the way through! Great since I also have the FX3 w/ 16-35mm GM lens, your explanations of Cine EI really helped. I knew I wanted to stick to the base ISO's but didn't have my camera setup as efficiently as you... I do now!! Looking forward to shooting more video.
Josh, I just want to say thank you so much for creating this advanced FX3 guide! I watched throught the entire video and you really made it enjoyable and also easy to understand and follow in setting up the camera. thank you for all the time you took to create this for us videographers. You're awesome! I also left a sub :) Keep up the great work!! 30K soon
Super helpful video! I've been running larger cameras like Ursa Mini and Alexa Mini for the last few years so it took some getting used to when I picked up a mirrorless again. This guide was detailed and well organized, easy to follow. Great work 👌
Great video Josh …Jason Hermann sent me over to you from the comments… been going round the bend trying to figure out sLog 3 and thanks to watching your fantastic break down of the FX3 all day I think I have a greater understanding of the camera and it’s capabilities … thank you so much fella … all the best to ya 💪💪👊
Hey Josh! Here's my take on SD-cards: The problem with the XAVC S-I codec is, that the file sizes become huge (especially with the FX30). So as a result most of us will stick with XAVC S, or XAVC HS codecs and for those a V60 will do all the frame rates up to 4k/120fps. So you don't even need a V90. And I would go even further: For most of the time you won't do 120fps and hence even a V30 card would do, while allowing you to do at least 4K60. So that's what I suggest: Use a 256GB V30 in slot #1 and a 256GB V60 card in slot #2 and you're covered for everything except XAVC S-I recordings (which due to the big file sizes, you'd probably won't use anyway). The Price difference for this setup in comparison to your 160Gb CF-Express type A and a 256GB V90 card is a whopping 500€ (in the EU, August 23)! Thanks for the video and see you soon! Ferdinand
You're welcome. Glad you have your system sorted out. I just started investing in V90 cards so I could future proof myself a bit and also can use them in any camera that I get.
Great work as always! This lens is sooo close for the unicorn of len's to take backpacking. Fast enough for Astro photography, but the missing 10mm at the long end. Can't wait for your review of the 24-50 f2.8
What an awesome video!! Thank you. I recently started using Sony Fx3... BEST CAMERA that I have used. I really appreciate the time you put into this instructional video.
Great breakdown! Just got mine last night and set it up your way. I almost set mine to Cine-L but then I was like he's right about the ISO capability so might as well fix it through aperture, ND's or adding/removing light on set
Excellent video. Really helped this newbie get familiar with the settings and start shooting. watched it all and took tons of notes and its on my save list so that I can reference. Thank you so much for putting this together. Subbed for sure.
Thank you Thank you! I've wanted to purchase a camera for more run and gun documentary style productions. I've used sony professional camcorders and some panasonic cameras. But I love the idea of using the fx3 with a zoom lens. These videos are great.
This is a truly excellent debrief on the settings, especially for someone coming from an A7SIII. However still a couple of major oversights on the part of Sony. When will Sony give us shutter degrees on their Cine cameras? Pretty antiquated that we have to change shutter speed when we change the framerate. Just give us a 180 deg shutter option Sony. And why can't they implement 25P in H265 recordings? Unless I switch to NTSC the lowest frame rate I can access in the HS codec is 50P.
Excellent work Josh! Subbed! One question, as far as recording audio... With the added XLR handle. Did you find the in camera pre-amp worked better at a specific level? I noticed your Record Level was at 19 in the video. Thanks!
Amazing in-depth description. Thanks a ton🙌🙌. Now for filmmaking purpose shall I choose primes over zooms. My priority is primes but wanted to know your thoughts on it. Thank you.
Great video. Just a minor gap; Time 51:52 you mentioned auto white balance can fluctuate during the shot therefore you don't recommend. But there is a auto white balance lock function in fx3 that can be set to a button. That fluctuation won't happen with that flag on
I always recommend that you choose a WB before you start filming and lock it in. Do that any way that you like, but it's not fun to try and grade an image where the WB is constantly changing.
Oh boy. Kinda looking forward to tucking in with this. I've had it a year or so but haven't really explored everything. So how much raw time did it take to put this together?
All your videos help thank you man! So useful and great at explaining all the details! Would XAVC S-I 4k be a better recommendation for filming Movies?
You're welcome. I know some people love it, but I just don't find myself using it. I always have to grade it a bit afterwards so I'd rather shoot in Slog3 and get more dynamic range.
Required viewing for the FX3. Absolute gold. Thank you!
You are very welcome. Hope it was helpful for you. Thanks for watching!
Step 1: Unbox my brand new FX3 with lens / Step 2: Watch this entire video and feel confident starting to use my new gear. Great job!
Thanks! Glad the video was helpful for you and congrats on the new FX3!
Just got my FX3 and frankly this is the only video I need to watch. Huge thankyou!

when i shoot 4k 120fps the video wont load on my sd card on pc/macbook but will show on my camera.. but 4k 60fps shows up. what am i doing wrong?
Will it play back in your editing software or just not in your media player, Quicktime, etc.?
@@Josh_Sattin not in media player, QuickTime. But it plays on camera. 4k 60fps plays on QuickTime
apparently in XAVC-HS 50mb and 100mb are indistinguishable even when peeping. I always use 50m now and it's awesome for file sizes.
Great video. Just a minor gap;
Time 51:52 you mentioned auto white balance can fluctuate during the shot therefore you don't recommend. But there is a auto white balance lock function in fx3 that can be set to a button. That fluctuation won't happen with that flag on

Thank you so much for making this. VERY helpful and you did a great job at helping us understand. God bless!
Oh boy. Kinda looking forward to tucking in with this. I've had it a year or so but haven't really explored everything.
So how much raw time did it take to put this together?
Haha. A lot! I hope this is helpful for people.
You sir are a godsend, than you so so much for this! Made my life so much easier in a pinch!
You are very welcome. Glad the video was helpful for you!
All your videos help thank you man! So useful and great at explaining all the details! Would XAVC S-I 4k be a better recommendation for filming Movies?
You're welcome. I went through all the differences between the codecs in this video. S-I is the largest but best quality.
Thanks a lot for this precious video seriously!
What do you think about S Cinetone ?
You're welcome. I know some people love it, but I just don't find myself using it. I always have to grade it a bit afterwards so I'd rather shoot in Slog3 and get more dynamic range.
Meilleure vidéo sur le FX3 ! Merci
