Hey, is Sam okay? Just a little concerned cause he seems a little down. Just know if you are going through anything Sam you got a big fan base here to cheer you up!!!
Gene: *keeps talking by himself for all the video*
Sam: *nervous nodding*
Great video, Gene! 👍
He needs that +2 color phase on the A7Siii tho
Sony Fx6 vs Red Komodo..?
Yeah great video game!
Gerald, I watched yours first.
Who cheated on gene and watched Gerald first? 😂
Thanks for the video! At 3:51 talking about color, your shirt color looks very different in the FX6 vs the C300. Which one would you say is a more accurate representation of your actual shirt color?
it looks like IR pollution sadly
I was also thinking IR but disappointed because the electronic ND is supposed to take care of that. Can anyone confirm it has an IR problem??
I think this happens throughout the Sony range, even the Venice. Annoying, but I doubt anyone would notice except the filmmaker.
I was so bored sitting here and then I saw Potato Jet uploaded, and I immediately clicked
I was about to fall asleep due to boredom then magic happened
Same
Me: *working away*
Potato Jet: *releases video*
Me: Well, guess that's enough work for the day
I’m just here to give a shout-out to the guy riding the bike. Very impressive.
Thank you! Haha
It seems the rolling shutter effect was quite obvious in this scene.
@@Test-bi5rg I don't think so. You can see many of the spokes on the wheels are straight, except for the ones that are probably bent IRL.
Dang this looks sweet
looking at the A7 siii and FX9 side by side, I'm impressed at how sony doesn't hold back their features in their mirrorless. In some cases I much prefer the A7 siii footage and it looks slightly sharper.
yep
That stabilization via Catalyst is insane! 🤯
Ugh, the FX6 looks so much more organic than the A7sIII. Sharpening is gone and skin looks nice.
Tempted to get it. Seems to be a great camera.
If you shoot prores raw out, you can bypass the aggressive high threshold high radius sharpening on the A7siii.
@Mark Kenfield Haven't tested it out myself, but from what I've heard from Phillip Bloom's review of the Sony A7s mk III, sounds like an ongoing problem, though bypassable if you have the Ninja V and shoot prores raw. ruclips.net/video/W6G7Lk3tr0Y/видео.html
Not even a Sony guy, but i'm just here for the Potato 😁
Sony is very bad for video, you can have better options for less money like the BMPCC6K
Can we get an FX6 vs Komodo blind test? They are the closest competitors in my opinion.
Yes, I was looking for fx6 vs komodo, there is nothing on RUclips)) please do it man)
Man, seeing that FX6 vs A7sIII skintone comparison makes me very happy I didn't get the A7sIII
Price 2 times
I bought the R5 and a7siii. Sold the a7siii. Can't deal with those yellow skin tones. I do like these fx6 colors much better though.
Gerald undone mentioned that a simple hue rotation gets a close match.
ruclips.net/video/a8xsjG6BSdE/видео.htmlm42s
Pretty solid job from Sony. I loved shooting with the FS5, this looks really promising. Still love my bmpcc6k but so much choice this year !!
Would you consider switching if money wasn’t a factor
@@NickVanHouse I definitely would, can save so much with full frame sensor on the lenses I need. But very invested in crop sensors so I'd have to sell and start again. But if money isn't an issue that's the only negative...and Sony's menus
That auto ND filter is crazy! That should totally become a standard camera thing.
Sam singing the TMNT soundtrack in his head while popat jet just fires off 😂😂😂
Potato Jet, the only guy who shows us different stuff from everyone else, when it comes to real camera work. I see a new video, I like, then I watch! Automatic!! And yes I want one🤣🤣👍
I finally decided on the C70 instead of a Komodo. Now this beautiful Fx6 is going to have me perplexed
Let us all know whether you go for this or C70 and why?
At first, I was awestruck by the Sony FX6 in lot of the YT channel reviews.
*But*
Since your YT review compared it beside the A7SIII footages, I see sharper and cleaner resolution in the A7SIII than the Sony FX6 camera.
-In my opinion, I believe the picture quality in the A7SIII is better, that's one distinction.
nah fam, the a7siii just has more digital sharpening and more noise reduction which you cannot turn off. The fx6 is definitely the way to go if you're a cinematographer, more control over the image processing and a more natural look.
Sam isn't impresseds. he wants that c70.
Don't see what one gets here for a whopping $6,000.
Sam at the end of the video is just me in class, smiling and nodding along to the prof
Thank you so much for the shout out Gene!!! 🙏🏼
For those of us who got our "cinema camera" start on the FS5 Mark I, this is awesome!!!
@@Max-fy4rc I have both of those and like some other reviews out there, its all based on how you use the camera! I plan on doing the FX9 FX6 combo for documentary shoots. using the FX6 for run and gun stuff but that's just me.
Would you mind doing a Video on how a Hollywood Movie Workflow would look like? Or like how Raw Video Footage is edited and cut and how long such a process takes and so on...
This needs a 3-way shootout between the Sony, Canon and Red Komodo! Heck, throw in an ARRI Alexa Mini too!
At 3:43, that black shirt is looking pretty magenta compared to the Canon. Just me?
Looks like the IR pollution on the bmpcc
This has always bothered me about my Sony cameras. My blacks were magenta and my skin tones were yellow/green, making it hard to correct for both at the same time.
Not just you. If it wasn't for the canon footage I would have said it's a purple shirt.
Looking at it on a calibrated screen, and the black shirt is correct on the Canon. The FX6 is looking purple.
Whoa. Didnt even knew these existed till now. At 6k, probably didn't even want to know they existed HAHA. But seriously, super interesting and useful information, I'm completely intrigued 💯✔
Gotta love the bored look on Sam’s face in the last few minutes where Gene goes on and on about comparing the two cameras and Sam’s just there in frame thinking about where his life went wrong that he’s listening to the kid from Up lecture about cameras.
I should probably be working ,but instead I am watching Potato Jet... DAMN YOU, GENEEE!
4:06 that Fx6 showing a lot IR Pollution
I have no interest in the fx9 or any e mount system but I still clicked on this and happily watched the review in its entirety
I want someone to look at me while I talk camera speks just like Sam looks at you.
*specs
I'd love to see an FX6 vs RED KOMODO comparison if you're up for that!
"we're about to freeze to death!"
I'm Canadian, wtf are you talking about, eh? 😂😍
The quality and color of your vlogs are very cinematic! That A7Siii is a beast.
Looks like the FX6 has IR contamination in the black shirt at 3:43, where the Canon doesn't show this.
Just when I thought I was going to get a komodo this is the camera I've been waiting for.
I've literally been looking at my bank account and the click to pre order button for the komodo for two weeks.
Trying to work out if I go for a pocket 6k, A7s again, c70, zcam or a komodo. All I need now is this baby.
Full frame and 4k 120 with next to know crop are deal breakers for me that's not to mention the screen you get us more.
Thanks for this.
No 16 bit color
@@sixsoxsex1 true but I think I can live without that and if I really need that I can rent :)
Alot of shoots I just don't have the space to back up so the full frame speaks to me. But I hear you :)
There is a big difference between 444 12 bit log (444 16bit linear color) and 422 10 bit log (422 12 bit linear color)
@@sixsoxsex1 I don't think my clients care. I'm mid level the last shoot I did for fila China was £15k budget (I couldn't believe it) that's for a 10 second and 45 commercial. We shot that with FS7.
A year ago similar work was upward of £80k which we would rent everything.
Honestly I think these companies want good content on small budgets.
@@patrickbaitmen9290 I bought a used Arri Alexa EV for 7000€ last year. It is an incredible and very cinematic camera but a little too heavy. For easy works I'm looking for a small light one but must be 16 bit color as my Alexa.
Why does it look to me like the A7Siii is sharper in a lot of these clips :O
It’s digital sharpness i think 🤔🤔
It doesn't look like the image actually contains more detail, just higher edge contrast.
Digital sharpening that isn't disablable on the A7siii without shooting raw video as hdmi out.
Picture looked much better with the A7S as it had more detail. Color was worse though.
@@curtisbme Yeah, I seen that too. The A7S definitely had more detail.
LOL Sam showing some ultimate patience waiting to get a word in while Gene goes mad on the specs.
You can tell Sam is getting bored just sitting there listening to the potato drag on about these cameras. Sam has that, "I'm getting paid to act interested," look. LMAO 😆🤣😂!
Or frozen!
@@9VARZ That too! Funny how Gene wasn't even wearing a jacket and he wasn't cold. I guess all the hot air from him talking was only directed towards!
Definitely making the purchase of the FX6! Pairing this with our FS5 as bcam :000 So perfect for the work we do. Thanks for the video guys! Really helpful!
What's better about this onethan the red komodo?
exactly what I was thinking, its so hard to choose from this and the c70. Ive become a sucker for that FF look lol. But when people compare those 16+ stops of DR from the C70 to the likes of what arri can achieve, man its hard to ignore that. And you cant deny how useful the pro ports and I/O from the fx6....ahhh its hard!
More than anything what I really care about is overall image quality and 4k 120
Which would you choose if this cost the same as the c70?
@@smallbizdigitalmedia FX6 i would say. The full frame, pro form factor, pro ports and accessories, step less variable ND. Plus, the c70 ends up being the same price with the additional speed booster. and with 15 stops of DR in camera, its close enough to the c70. I feel the pros of the fx6 outweigh the pros of the c70 overall
cine camera. sandy beach. wind. omg i'm not going to be able to sleep tonight! great video as usual. also sam is very talkative in the outro of the video...
feels like an fx9 vs c70 vs komodo could be interesting
11:11 sam in the back
Man I am the operator (cam op) whatever camera you buy!
Could you do a comparison between the Blackmagic 6K and this camera, or the FX9?
i just got back from school, a notification popped and I immediately clicked
I think the C70 will work well most of the time especially when there is abundant light. Mini XLR inputs I think is an alright compromise. RF lenses or the speedbooster is nice and I think up to a certain point the C300 III's image can be cleaner than the C500 II. But, I am actually loving the additional features the FX6 provides. Kind of split here, but, I do think the DGO sensor is actually great most of the time. Also, not sure if there is IR Pollution on Gene's shirt or just a color shift or it is just the actual color of the shirt.
Honestly, mini-XLR directly on the body is infinitely better than REQUIRING a top handle to have XLR.
Such a great video. Lotta hard work in all the editing. Well done!
The C70 canon please 😀 I’m literally waiting on your review to buy it or not 😂😂
Thanks Gene for literally answering all questions that I had in mind related to this camera :)
SERIOUS QUESTION : My old FS7 vs the new FX6 ? :o
Mark Bone said FX6 hands down
@3:53 tell me why the blacks in your shirt look like they have really bad IR pollution? I think that would be a huge negative compared to the canon as you need to filter that IR noise out externally. Can you confirm?
Is Sam okay?
Variable Electronic ND as a dynamic way to compensate exposure is pretty damn clever. I'm impressed. I think they also nailed a great place for that dual ISO effectively making a daytime and night time mode.
which many people don't understand
It’s amazing how close the Canon and Sony were in this comparison.
10:25 Gene: "You look like a spy!"
Sam: *turns hat backwards like a Pokemon master*
For this price would y’all rather have this or the new A9ii/A7siii with a nice lens?
As someone who does video work, I would rather have this. DSLRs and Mirrorless cameras are nice for mimicking cinema on a budget, but this has so many more features that are built directly into the camera. For me, this is a more well rounded option in most scenarios. Unless you do both photography and video work on a budget. Then mirrorless/DSLR makes more sense. *Disclaimer* I currently have a Nikon Z 6, but I would love to get a dedicated film camera for convenience sake.
don’t need nice lenses go vintage
I’m flying a Sony FS5 Mk2 with the Atomos shogun 7 on a crane 3s‼️I love shooting Apple ProRes Raw‼️🎥 Cool video!
Never been this early
Same
same
same
I had an online class and as soon as I recived a notification for this video I skipped the clas lol.
At this point idc if im in debt, 2020 doesnt care about my bank account
lmao
That dual native ISO thing still blows my mind
bmpcc 4k has dual ISO as well
blackmagic design pocket cinema camera 4k (SUCH A LONG NAME!)
You said the FX9 "has that special sauce" that the A7siii doesn't have. So... does the FX6 have that special sauce?
FX6 may be the camera I have been waiting for... Amazing!
sam had a word limit for this video
Gene slapped his ass and showed him not to disrespect his video shine.
FX6 vs. C70 vs. Komodo is the battle we didn't know we needed so bad in 2020.
Well, in this case...
... is the FX6, duh!
Oh my God, Sony is bring it. Waiting for the 10 hour tortilla on what I'm sure is a huge instruction manual. Break it down to tasty ingredients, good soup. You guys are awesome
MY GOD those IR issues on the Sony !!! How didn't you even notice that ? Your black t-shirt is RED on the split-screen.
Get the FX-6 for sure, go full Sony!
No thoughts on the IR issue at 3.45 where your black tshirt turns brown/red?
2 years later and I FINALLY got an FX6 due to supply issues lmao. Still excited about it though.
LOL That 12,800 ISO thing! Finally someone made a video about it.
Amazing Video
Love from India 🇳🇪
Does the A7S III look sharper to anyone else? 4:26
Excellent content. I Have been telling all my friends about your channel. That way we can get you to one million subscribers. You deserve it for sure....
Gene, you show a comparison between the Sony FX6 and the Canon C70 at 11:40. However, this is close to white writing on a white background making it hard to read.
Man oh Man, your attention to detail is high tech, I really enjoy the way present facts. You get right to the point is a fact finding way. Thanks for the enlightenment
Can't wait for the comparison of Sony FX6 vs Canon C70 vs Red Komodo
After effects has a way to add motion blur back into high shutter speed footage… catalyst browse has so much potential. Adobe even made warp stabilizer faster with the update. If Sony really improved catalyst browse, it would be an amazing workflow
I see some possible IR contamination - look at timecode 3:44 and the color of his shirt looks totally different in the Sony vs Canon. Some Sony cameras have IR contamination issues which causes specific fabrics of clothes to turn ugly dark-marroon-ish.. Just FYI. Maybe Potato Jet can tell us what was the true color of his shirt? Thank you.
A lot of banding in the sky in 6:55 showing during the stabilization, is that YT compression or in the camera?
Please do a comparison between the fx6 and the komodo!
@3:50
My biggest concern is how the color is off on black fabrics. I'm wondering if it's because of the OLPF on the sensor that's not cutting down IR as good as the A7s3 and the C300M3. Potato's shirt is more tinted towards magenta in both comparison shots.
Great! Just Canceled my A7S3 Preorder so I can sit on this Preorder for 6 months
3_46 wow your shirt in the FX6 shot is much more purple than in the canon shot. Which color was more accurate?
Stoked for this way more than the C70
Why? It looks closer than the 2005 Ashes tests to me?
@@smallbizdigitalmedia personally the biggest things are form factor and sensor size. The DSLR grips are just unappealing
14:15 - 14:58 is very heavy banding, do you think that's the youtube compression?
Hey Gene, just so you know, in the description the link for the fx6 is titled fx9. Just thought i’d let u know.
that low light performance and the gyro image stabilization is whats making Sony the clear winner! The RF lenses are awesome but it’s not that important when it comes to the full picture 🎥
We are at the crossroads of cinema camera riches.
What video editor is @ 6:46
3:43 loved the homage to Camera Conspiracies!
Great video Jason Vong!
I want one as well . I have the script already and my lead actors so forward that puppy right over !
Those canon colors are pretty awesome. The a7r3 also has great color. I agree that you get more natural look from the fx6 by your comparison therefore everything else can be done in post
What 16- 35 mm lens with the servo Doom lens that you were using what brand was that that is a big huge beefy Lynn is there a longer Zoom rangelands like that Cinema lens
