After a firmware update, you'll need to use the creators' cloud app to view your camera.. my cameras was still on VERSION 1.0!! Haha. The 2.0 firmware is available, check it out!
@keith-knittel I only got around to updating to 3.0 from 2.0 last week. I had to go to 2.5 first via a computer, then the 3.0 update. Also, I love the new app control, but cracks me up when I want to control my gimble at the same time.... takes multiple android devices to operate the way I like.
The 18-105mm f4 is a more practical choice of the FX30 than the 24-105mm f4 lens because you get a wider field of view on the wide end, which is helpful since the FX30 has a "crop" sensor. The 18-105mm also gives you servo zoom, which is pretty cool.
@@newsmagazine2133 doesn't matter because it has an e-mount. And the FX30 has an e-mount. The focal length is just different so he is right. Btw: the 18-105 mm is just 550 instead of 1000 for the 24-105
Great video, loved the pacing. Couple of recommendations, > Atomos Ninja V with a couple of 1TB SSDs are better than carrying a case full of SD cards. > Viltrox 13mm F/1.4 is a wide angle fast prime lens. Couple more lens recommendations would be Sigma's 18-35 F/1.8 and 18-50 F/2.8.
I love my FX30. Super bang for buck and many options like said here. Just wanted to say a great intro lense for it is the 16-55G F2.8 I also have some primes for it. Looking to get that 90mm macro thou!
Great info! I loved it, except I noticed that you are filming on the A7S3 instead of the fx30. Do you think the fx30 would give you the same look in your studio as the full-frame?
Love the video man. Everything is so informative and straight to the point. Just a constructive critic tho, the black “oil spill” “ink” transtion is a bit distracting. Other than that, u earned a sub!
Thanks man! And thanks for the feedback as well. I was trying something a little different with transitions and titles for the different sections of the video. Anymore feedback, feel free to let me know!
i recommend the Wndrd sling bag more than the peak design one, it is bigger and holds a lot more. I am able to fit a big DSLR with a 80-400mm on it in the bag which is perfect for sports photography and videography
AMAZING VIDEO! I'm looking to mount this inside my vehicle to do some youtubing any recommendations? not sure what mount to use.. i just purchased an fx30..
when it comes to redundant storage and backups, for lots of people its worth the investment of building a small NAS or even DAS system and configuring it in a RAID setup that suits your level of comfort for backup security. You can find a 4-6 drive bay for $500 or less and fill them with large drives like 12-16 TB (that way you can just start with 1-2 drives with room to grow) that run in the $150-250 range as you need them. The up front cost is certainly more than buying just 1-2 regular hard drives, but you're not constantly unplugging them and having to keep up with what footage is on what drives, as well as not having to manually do your backups.
I've been kicking the NAS can down the road for a long time, and it's only a matter of time before that happens. The only thing holding me back is that I have multiple computers that I edit from, and while having multiple drives is a pain in the butt, it's the fastest way to transfer lots of footage between machines/travel with. But it's only a matter of time before I end up building a NAS. Any recommendations?
@@keith-knittel just depends how much space you need really. Im most likely going to pick up the Synology 6 bay NAS and fill it with iron wolf 16 TB drives. (1-2 at a time) I filled my current WD my book duo 16 TB in about 2 years; but it was only about 1/4 full a year ago before I started my remote editing job and before I upgraded cameras too. I’m not a NAS/DAS expert myself I’m still learning too, but LTT has a couple of really great videos on it
Hi Keith, some good advice, but I'm less sure about buying drives in two at a time given you store the same dots on each 'twin'. Why? Rick of batch faults! Everything about duplicate drives is great. Redundant storage etc. Esp if one drive is kept at a different address (fire risk or theft etc). But to really ensure data integrity then use same or similar drives by all means. Just buy them at different times or different suppliers so that there is little chance that both were made on same day or week etc when a possible life shortening fabrication error could occur. That way there is less risk that they could both fail at a similar future time point. Maybe that's being Uber cautious, but it's quite easy to implement and if it's ever needed, then you will be glad you took that additional precaution!?
Ooh man, I've never thought of this! I've also been storing my files on the cloud with backblaze lately so thats less of a risk now, but that is a great point!
Ehm no, it's better to buy from different manufacturers. If you're going the route of having redundant storage it would be a bit silly to not do it properly and get the maximum security you can since you're already spending time and money on it. It's plain logic, there is no counter argument to this. Using cloud storage is an alternative but it has bitten me once, a cascade of misfortune cost me all my photos and videos going back several years. What happened was that I used to have everything backed up on iCloud, had a subscription billed every month on my creditcard - and then I fell and broke 2 vertebrae in my back, which cascaded to me becoming disabled, losing my job, and my creditcard was cancelled pretty abruptly by my bank because my income dropped. iCloud was being billed to my cancelled creditcard, which meant it got shut down before I had any way of copying all the stuff on there to something else. So trusting cloud storage cost me most of the photos I had of my son growing up, and nearly 10 years of photos and videos, most of which I had nowhere else. Your cloud storage is one accident away from being lost forever, keep that in mind when you use it.
Just about to order the FX30 for primarily indoor podcast creation and am aware it comes with an AC adaptor. Can I not power it through the usb-c port with this as I believe it will slow the internal battery drain?
As long as you have a 9 volt 3 amp usbc power delivery, you can power the camera as king as you have power. Just make sure it’s not less than 9v3a, as most basic usb power banks or chargers are.
Sir I won FX 30 and I m looking for extra back up power...which power bank your using and how much back up it give... Im from India and your link is not supported here. Pls suggest me good power bank (PD). I have shortlisted many but not shure about back time on camera. Thanks in advance.
Havent used that one yet, will have to check it out! When it comes to glass, I mostly use full frame glass since this is my B or C camera and buying APSC lenses, I would only be able to use the lens with this camera only. Will have to see if I can review one though! I love my 24-105 on full frame and this looks like a similar focal range, but much smaller
I mentioned that lens in my best budget Lenses for Sony APSC cameras video here: ruclips.net/video/q_QGhRGQz9Q/видео.html It's a fantastic lens, thanks for the recommendation!
I shoot almost exclusively on my FX3 with one of those 256g prograde V60 cards @ $100 bucks. but knowing I would need a type A card for 120fps capabilities drove me nuts (I'm a completionist), so I purchased the smallest/cheapest type A card and that stupid thing is over twice the price at half the size.... I'm not sure it was needed so much beyond playing with slo motion. If I had to do it again, I'd just buy more prograde cards of equal size. Dual recordings get qwonky on mismatched cards kinda like the "hot dog to bun ratio".
The sigma contemporary primes are fantastic. I used the 16mm a lot with my a6400 and loved it! I sold all of my apsc glass though and all of my other cameras are full frame, so my lenses definitely skew towards full frame
Just checking back in, I posted a video about the best APSC lenses for Sony cameras and mentioned the Sigma lenses! Here is that video: ruclips.net/video/q_QGhRGQz9Q/видео.html
I dunno man. I feel like the Sony is what the original Blackmagic pocket cinema camera was . Those FZ batteries last for ever even on my A7siii. Rigging it just costs more gets more in the way and slows u down from creating .same as the xlr mic and slower than v90, basically not even close to get the best out ur camera. If ur gonna rig it up anyways might as well just use an A7iv imo or an A6400 with basic 10 bit
All depends on the shoot! If you're filming at a clients location all day in 4K, and using a monitor and wireless audio, you're going to need a v mount battery, or lots of batteries, unless you're by power and not moving the camera all day. If filming a few quick clips of broll for a video, I'd only take the camera, one lens and no external power to move quickly and just get the shots needed. The A7IV is a great camera but comes with it's own problems (over heating in video being the big one) and the A6400 doesnt have 10-bit video. Really hard to say definitively that one thing is better than another when there are so many different things to shoot and every camera has it's quirks
Can anyone tell me Samsung Portable SSD T9 is good fit for sony fx30 as external SSD? I do not want to buy any CFExpress card I just want to use external SSD only.
You can use the 3.5mm from the camera to the DJI mic receiver and bake the audio from the transmitter straight into your recordings. Or record on the DJI mic and sync in post. Sometimes I do both as a safety
If you’re using a v mount with a 9v 3a power delivery over usbc, you won’t need a dummy battery. You can leave the original battery in the camera and power from the mount with a usbc power delivery cable. You’ll need a dtap dummy battery for the power extra batteries. I have a video “powering Sony cameras forever” video on my channel going into this in more depth
@@keith-knittel Got it ! Thank you so much ! One more question: The cables between battery and camera - do they come with battery or do I buy them separately ? Thx !
@@elmono3939 No problem! No, my FXlion battery did not come with a USBC cable, had to buy that separately - but any USBC power deliver cable will do. Just make sure it's capable of running power delivery! Not all USBC cables are capable of that
Are you thinking of recording internally to an SSD? Youre unable to do so straight out of camera. You'll have ot use a recorder to do that, like the ninja v
“If i was on a budget” lenses around 600-1000 bucks each lol 😂 dont get me wrong those are pretty amazing lenses but come on, reviewers has to stop doing that. It makes me feels so poor
If I could make lenses cheaper, I would! Unfortunately, thats about the entry price for a decent lens these days. The Sigma 18-50 is under that, and as long as youre ok with the lens being softer on the wider side of the focal range, thats a nice lens to start with
I totally understand, but this is my C camera for my full frame cameras. I'm already pretty invested into Sony FF glass - it would actually be more expensive for me to buy APSC glass specifically for this camera! That being said, I've used the sigma line of APSC primes and they are all fantastic. If you're looking for Sony APSC glass, I have some reviews of sony lenses on my channel here: Sony 10-20 power zoom: ruclips.net/video/9vMjtR0oeuQ/видео.html Sony 11mm 1.8: ruclips.net/video/-aUZFeXZZuc/видео.html Sony 15mm 1.4 G: ruclips.net/video/OGreOwfRt9c/видео.html
@@PinoyTechdadVlogs the sigma 18-35mm f1.8 with the sigma MC-11 canon ef to e mount adapter is absolutely a top 5 lens for this camera. It’s my daily driver and I use it for 90% of what I shoot, because it’s the sigma 1st party adapter, the AF-C works exactly how you’d expect it to with any native e mount lens and it’s damn good too, eye tracking like a 1st party Sony lens. Highly recommend, I love it on my FX30
Honestly man you did better woth Dropbox if you would have got the enterprise option you would have unlimited storage for like 80$ a month and you can hav3 members on it so if you know other creators you can split the cost and nkw you have unlimited storage for like 30$
I had the version that was under enterprise, but had purchased additional data a few different times and was actually close to that. I'll check out dropbox and maybe use both (I still have dropbox now, just lowered my tier). I love the speed of dropbox, but is much more expensive when compared to backblaze. But there two different cloud services for different things. Will check that out though
Don't know if you realize this, but this black gaze devouring transition is really disturbing. It's like something out of a horror movie. Maybe quite funny once you see it. But across the video as a standard transition it is unbearable.
Hey there Val, admittedly that was on purpose. In every video, I try to do a small experiment with my editing or the video and "a jarring transition on a talking head video, to see if it raises retention" is one that I wanted to try out. So I found this one that was pretty wild and used it. Looking back, I should have varied it or maybe found different versions of this so it wasn't so repetitive, but this was a test in retention... and... it kind of worked. My analytics say that transition kept people's attention longer than other straight cuts when comparing it to similar segments and timing to other related videos - although some people have commented that it's very distracting. But that was part of the test! Thank you for your super valuable feedback. You hit the nail on the head! In the future, I'm going to tone it down and see how that affects retention and if people like the effect more. RUclips is a tough trial and error process. Sorry it was disturbing to you, I really do apologize for that. Didnt mean to offend anyone but thank you for the feedback!
@@keith-knittel Haha thanks for your professional reaction, here in Germany you usually get a little shitstorm when you get critical, and something like that I expected. Well, I'm glad that I could maybe help you a little! :) . My FX30 arrives tomorrow, I'm mega excited, and really looking forward to the little wonder machine. So far I shoot the scenic stuff partly with my FS5, but fully rigged with gimbal and atomos it is now too heavy for me as a run&gun machine (bad back from 25 years ENG cameraman), and I am of course now keen on 4K 422 50p internally! Only the internal electronic ND filter I will miss very much. But let's see how that goes with the Matte Box from smallrig. I own a GOBE variable ND filter 77mm, is there possibly a Matte Box recommendation from you?
What do you think about the Sony FX30? EDIT: It just got a new firmware update!

Looking back, I should have varied it or maybe found different versions of this so it wasn't so repetitive, but this was a test in retention... and... it kind of worked. My analytics say that transition kept people's attention longer than other straight cuts when comparing it to similar segments and timing to other related videos - although some people have commented that it's very distracting. But that was part of the test! Thank you for your super valuable feedback. You hit the nail on the head! In the future, I'm going to tone it down and see how that affects retention and if people like the effect more. RUclips is a tough trial and error process. Sorry it was disturbing to you, I really do apologize for that. Didnt mean to offend anyone but thank you for the feedback!
@@keith-knittel Haha thanks for your professional reaction, here in Germany you usually get a little shitstorm when you get critical, and something like that I expected. Well, I'm glad that I could maybe help you a little! :) . My FX30 arrives tomorrow, I'm mega excited, and really looking forward to the little wonder machine. So far I shoot the scenic stuff partly with my FS5, but fully rigged with gimbal and atomos it is now too heavy for me as a run&gun machine (bad back from 25 years ENG cameraman), and I am of course now keen on 4K 422 50p internally! Only the internal electronic ND filter I will miss very much. But let's see how that goes with the Matte Box from smallrig. I own a GOBE variable ND filter 77mm, is there possibly a Matte Box recommendation from you?
