I wish the world knows how much your videos are important for filmmakers, and many people around the industry! Sound clear, go straight to the point, and you waste no seconds! I’ve been watching your channel for a really long time and this is the moment that I show my appreciation for you Matt!
No LUT support is the biggest joke ever. Like I spent $4500 on a a7siii just for an a6700 to be able to do something like that. But hey, have some PAID Custom Gridlines for $150. Biggest joke ever.
It really is man. One of the huge deciding factors in buying my FX3 was LUT loading/monitoring. And now a year later after real world use, I couldn’t live without it. Obviously external monitoring is different but having it in camera is essential.
You forgot the 2 features not really mentioned but are the most valuable.. at least for me.. I suggested them to sony staff some years ago... took a while: 1/24th shutter to have that little bit of extra light closed shutter when camera is closed to prevent dust when lens changing and i noticed much faster startup and readiness to record
Did they finally add a way to set your custom white balance/color temp using a neutral grey surface in presets 1-3 as opposed to having to switch to movie mode? 🤔
Thanks for putting this out so quick. I just updated and was pleasantly surprised at the FX3 style menus and display. This in my opinion is as big of a deal as breathing comp. It makes the overall UX of the camera so much better. I also noticed that I can now shoot in 1/48 shutter! Overall quite pleased with the update. Would have liked to have shutter angle and cine EI but I can live with this.
it will change on the Atomos ninja external raw external recording. Some people are complaining about that (The base ISO is now 80/1600 instead of 640/12800)
@@Intuifilm wow. That I don't like. I use Atomos Ninja V recorders for all my multi cam video shoots. I think I'm going to hold off from updating the firmware.
Darn! As a Panasonic S1 / S5 shooter, I sure wish that Panasonic would allow for tiemcode in via the USB-C port on those cameras. Good on Sony for making this an option.
Hey Matt, thanks for the great video i also used your presets! There is also a hidden feature that you can now use the anti dust function an close the shutter when the camera is off! I just have a simple question, is it not possible to change the icons that appear on the display left and right? I can´t find it in the settings... Thanks in advance!
Not sure what you are referring to when talking about timecode from a Tascam X6 and the micro-usb cable. Your other video has no reference to it nor did I find any online guidance... Any thoughts?
The "Monitor and Control" app that pairs with the camera has a False Color overlay feature that will be of interest to people doing Chroma-key/green screen work. I was wondering how the A7SII was going to dust cover the sensor and I see it doesn't seem to be included.
wasnt dci 4k implemented in fx3 with the same width as normal 4k..? im under the impression that it was a fake dci on fx3, where they just cropped the top and bottom.. am i wrong? is this implementation actually proper dci 4k width?
Same feeling here, i'm in Pal country and noticed this false dci 4K too ! same horizontal field but croped vertical field. When i do the same on Fs7 i have same vertical but more horizontal field. So is it really a DCI on A7s3 or FX3 or another crop into the sensor with pixel bining? or do Pal country have a BUG ??????? I even tried to reupdated the firmware but when i am on v3.00 i can't ré-update it.... software indicate that is not good software system update....
Matt, Can you confirm us please because it is very important. If you confirm us that this 4k DCi run normally i prefer shoot in normal 4k and then do 4K DCI in editing software since there isn't more horizontal résolution.
I’m a comedian and am torn between the A7Siii and FX3. I primarily will stick it on a tripod and film myself in comedy clubs (low light) 4K 24 perhaps as long as 30-45 minutes. Is it possible that the A7Siii will overheat? The FX3 has an internal fan and that’s the only thing making me second guess myself.
Thanks for the video Matt. Quick question about the A7S III firmware update. Does it automatically add on the 1/48 shutter speed or will I need to download the separate DCI license to get 1/48 to work?
Do you know if it causes any compatibility issue with 3rd party batteries? This is what happened with my FX30, it doesn't display the battery percentage anymore and it is showing warnings when I try to use them.
I like the shutter closing feature, and something that nobody else mentioned - the peeking always on option. What I’m always fighting for is good clean audio and good clean focus. I’m not worried about the lack of LUT support
Thank you for the information! Did they add where the shutter door closes when the camera isnt on like in the a74? What about changing the shutter in increments to avoid flicker also a74 has this?
@@NAM3L3555 You always have more possibilities of breaking your camera when you're flimsy but would rather break the shutter than having the elements affecting the sensor and comeback with a clean footage.
So pleased we have 24fps now. I was filming in 23.nearly 24 and now all of my videos will look sooooo much better and more professional I can't thank Sony enough for this absolutely monumental game changing update. I feel all of my previous work is garbage now. Thanks Sony!
I have an important question. Before the new update, when I changed the automatic focus from the lens to the manual focus ( mode in the video mode ), "PEAK" appeared with the red color that I had previously determined, and again when I changed the focus from the lens to the automatic mode, "PEAK" was turned off in red. But after the update, when I turn on "PEAK" and put the lens in automatic mode, "PEAK" remains and Don't be off . where is the problem from ?
Hi Matt, I hope you're doing well. I need your help. My A7SIII suddenly stopped working while I was using it, and the red light is blinking. Even when I turn the camera off, it persists. Can you please help me identify what might be causing this issue? Thanks.
Did Sony mention previously they would be supporting luts in a7s3? I’m seeing many people disappointed that this wasn’t present in this update? Is it something forthcoming?
@whoismatt I seem to have found an issue with the update or maybe there is a solution to my problem that I cant yet see but basically the focus peaking on setting instead of only working in manual focus it also works in AF mode and its always on or always off. If this was done intentionally I can't see why or maybe I'm the only one with this issue ??
This is how other Sony cameras are. Sony A7iv is like that out of the box. It’s so annoying as the peaking being on or off is a great indicator as to which mode your in
heyy matt! one quastion ! is there a way to display in recording screen (in discriptions) if i record with proxy or not? i can only check it at first new menus but in the old update was under the 4k-50 etc , thank you!

Hi Matt, longtime subscriber, well I have tested a few things since the update and for me, the true 24p only works in DCI mode but reverts to 23.9 in XVASC I, not sure if its a region thing since I live in Jamaica but can you confirm if you have true 24 in other modes ie. 4kHS or SI etc

I updated my a7S III and installed your presets. Now the camera does not turn on anymore. I changed battery already but still does not work. Any suggestions?
I want to upgrade my camera from Sony a7iii to other in coming August, Is it still ok to buy a7siii now? or should i wait for a7siv ? any recommendations will be helpful. (I dont like a7iv's 4k crop in 120fps)
@@whoismatt yes right, I absolutely love a7iii, but sometimes there's requirements of shooting 4k 60/120 then, we must need a camera that match up right?
Thanks Matt Keep up the good work. Any idea how to lose the new menu screen on the back monitor? The display button on the back scroll wheel used to toggle between full screen and display modes but not any more.
The most important feature for me wasn't even listed in the changelog and you didn't mention it (you should): There's an AF Assist feature that lets you override tracking by manually focusing the camera. No more jumping to custom button to stop the focus to take over if something goes wrong. I wish more people would be talking about this.
Matt, first I love your channel and I am subscribed. I have to say this breathing compensation feature is a bust for underwater filmmakers like me. This key feature is missing from most of their lenses. Unless you have a gmaster lens it appears this feature is greyed out. I went to the trouble of installing the 2.15 and 3.0 and I can't even use this feature. This is important for underwater macro applications such as with my 50 and 90 mm macro lenses. What has Sony said about this? Any updates coming?
Thanks for the update video, great stuff from you as always. Disappointed the update still doesn’t have lut support, focus mapping, or updated auto focus options but hey - that’s why I grabbed a zve1 I guess /shrug (minus the focus mapping)
Great video as always. And fantastic news. Does anyone know whether there is also a 24.0 fps update for the other Sonys? I often shoot with an A7IV as a second camera and in very rare instances I‘m using a friends A1 for the 8K. It’d be great if all of these support true 24 so we can ditch 23.976 altogether.
Hello! Don't do the update if you still use a ninja v or ninja v+ external raw. There are big problems with it... there are a few posts on reddit about that BIG problem... and one of the atomos answer is :" it’s Sony’s responsibility to fix this issue". Thank you Matt for your video !
@whoismatt is somewhere in the settings the ability to see the profile pic on our monitor? why I can not see on the cam monitor the creative or the pp?
Amazing channel. So informative. How do you actually add in custom gridlines ? Create png files? Download png files ? Purchase dng files? Is the size of the gridlines dependent in the size oif the sensor (apsc/full frame) i dont see a tutorial for installing custome gridlines. Can you or any help because i actually think for some there is a use case for custom grid lines for bwtter framing and workflow for certain social media aspect ratios- 4:5, 9:16 etc. thanks for the amazing informative videos !!!
It’s disappointing 4K DCI is only available in the XAVCS-I mode. I wish it was also available in the other recording option for those of us who don’t use v90 cards.
Hey Matt, I just downloaded your presets. Thanks for sharing. I just wanted to let you know that with the update, you can now choose 1/48 shutter speed for your 24p video setting. I went in and made the change manually. Just an FYI!
@@Matticulous-Media I decided to update the firmware, and 1/120, 1/240 is not available. It's still 1/125 and 1/250. True 30, 60 and 120p is not available either. Only true 24p after installing a licence through the app on your phone (all free btw).
Matt, if we save our custom buttons etc to the memory card and THEN update, will be not be able to re-import the custom-save-file from the previous firmware version? Appreciate you want your subscribers to download your lead magnet but I have my camera set up already and want to retain the same mappings/settings... Is there something about the new firmware that blocks a user from re-importing their old custom mappings that were saved while running previous firmware versions?
Hey! The big bummer about this update is that presets made with previous firmware versions will not work with the latest 3.0 firmware, so I promise this isn’t a shameless attempt for people to download my lead magnet haha. 😜 When you update your firmware, you’ll have to re-create all of your settings from scratch, or download my updated preset file that I re-created after updating the firmware. :)
@@whoismatt Oh maaaaan! That's painful! To the download page I go... Lastly - on the timecode side; I don' suppose you know if the Deity C23 cable will work (instead of the Sony BNC cable?) I'm invested in the Deity TC-1 kit, and the C23 is their TC table for Sony FX3/FX30 - So I'm assuming it would work fine with this new FW...?
Hey Matt, Thanks. I download and update with your preset. However, when I try to connect to phone, I turn off airplane mode and it tell me that my bluetooth/wi-fi is malfunction. I was able to connect to my phone when it initially updated to 3.0. Not sure if it was a bug or preset break it. Anyone has the same issue? I need to reset the setting to be able to get the connect to phone function back.
As a Tentacle fanboy I’m STOKED with the new update!! Does this mean we can Jam Sync timecode into the camera?? Not having to keep a tentacle device attached would be V nice and save other wedding videographers heaps of $$

So the best update to this is focus breathing
And the true 24 frames and true 4k
I want to upgrade my camera from Sony a7iii to other in coming August, Is it still ok to buy a7siii now? or should i wait for a7siv ? any recommendations will be helpful. (I dont like a7iv's 4k crop in 120fps)
there is no crop on a7iv in 4k 120p because there is not 120 p in 4k only 50/60P😉
The best camera is always the one you actually own and can buy. I have no clue when an a7S iv is coming or if one will ever arrive
@@andreacappello8669 you get the point right😅( crop in 4k 60p*)
@@whoismatt yes right, I absolutely love a7iii, but sometimes there's requirements of shooting 4k 60/120 then, we must need a camera that match up right?
Thanks Matt
Keep up the good work. Any idea how to lose the new menu screen on the back monitor? The display button on the back scroll wheel used to toggle between full screen and display modes but not any more.
Swipe to the right or left on the side and it will hide the touch menu
The most important feature for me wasn't even listed in the changelog and you didn't mention it (you should): There's an AF Assist feature that lets you override tracking by manually focusing the camera. No more jumping to custom button to stop the focus to take over if something goes wrong.
I wish more people would be talking about this.
Matt, first I love your channel and I am subscribed. I have to say this breathing compensation feature is a bust for underwater filmmakers like me. This key feature is missing from most of their lenses. Unless you have a gmaster lens it appears this feature is greyed out. I went to the trouble of installing the 2.15 and 3.0 and I can't even use this feature. This is important for underwater macro applications such as with my 50 and 90 mm macro lenses. What has Sony said about this? Any updates coming?
Thank you for sharing! No autofocus updates?
There is now AF assist
HOLY SHIP. Finally TIMECODE!!!
I almost sold my a7s3 because of timecode
Do you know that while I have 2 cards saved on the screen, it only shows one?
Thanks for the update video, great stuff from you as always. Disappointed the update still doesn’t have lut support, focus mapping, or updated auto focus options but hey - that’s why I grabbed a zve1 I guess /shrug (minus the focus mapping)
Inb4, I have the siii AND the zve1. Upset Sony continues to have upgrade features in less “professional” lines
Great video as always. And fantastic news. Does anyone know whether there is also a 24.0 fps update for the other Sonys? I often shoot with an A7IV as a second camera and in very rare instances I‘m using a friends A1 for the 8K. It’d be great if all of these support true 24 so we can ditch 23.976 altogether.
Is monitor and control free?
Yes
Hello! Don't do the update if you still use a ninja v or ninja v+ external raw. There are big problems with it... there are a few posts on reddit about that BIG problem... and one of the atomos answer is :" it’s Sony’s responsibility to fix this issue". Thank you Matt for your video !
🤦🏼♂too late
I thought this update also put the shutter up once camera was turned off ?
Eye's tracking is not working as well as the prevuious
firmware.
The target in the eye goes somtime out of focus with
no reason...
is the base ISO still 640 and 12800 ?
@whoismatt is somewhere in the settings the ability to see the profile pic on our monitor? why I can not see on the cam monitor the creative or the pp?
Amazing channel. So informative.
How do you actually add in custom gridlines ? Create png files? Download png files ? Purchase dng files? Is the size of the gridlines dependent in the size oif the sensor (apsc/full frame) i dont see a tutorial for installing custome gridlines. Can you or any help because i actually think for some there is a use case for custom grid lines for bwtter framing and workflow for certain social media aspect ratios- 4:5, 9:16 etc. thanks for the amazing informative videos !!!
Is there going to be any update for the Sony Alpha 7IV?
I saw that it îs available and for a7IV
It’s disappointing 4K DCI is only available in the XAVCS-I mode. I wish it was also available in the other recording option for those of us who don’t use v90 cards.
If I do not like the result of update and I run Camera Settings Reset will I get the firmware I had before I ran Firmware Update?
Nope, you cannot downgrade
how do we install your settings?
Hey Matt, I just downloaded your presets. Thanks for sharing. I just wanted to let you know that with the update, you can now choose 1/48 shutter speed for your 24p video setting. I went in and made the change manually. Just an FYI!
Do you know if 1/240 is available now if shooting 120fps? Or 1/120 when shooting 60fps for that matter, instead of the 1/250 and 1/125
@@BeckOfficial Good questions!
@@Matticulous-Media I decided to update the firmware, and 1/120, 1/240 is not available. It's still 1/125 and 1/250. True 30, 60 and 120p is not available either. Only true 24p after installing a licence through the app on your phone (all free btw).
Great update but I really want Luts support man..
Same 😭
It’s about time 👍
Matt, if we save our custom buttons etc to the memory card and THEN update, will be not be able to re-import the custom-save-file from the previous firmware version? Appreciate you want your subscribers to download your lead magnet but I have my camera set up already and want to retain the same mappings/settings... Is there something about the new firmware that blocks a user from re-importing their old custom mappings that were saved while running previous firmware versions?
Hey! The big bummer about this update is that presets made with previous firmware versions will not work with the latest 3.0 firmware, so I promise this isn’t a shameless attempt for people to download my lead magnet haha. 😜
When you update your firmware, you’ll have to re-create all of your settings from scratch, or download my updated preset file that I re-created after updating the firmware. :)
@@whoismatt Oh maaaaan! That's painful! To the download page I go... Lastly - on the timecode side; I don' suppose you know if the Deity C23 cable will work (instead of the Sony BNC cable?) I'm invested in the Deity TC-1 kit, and the C23 is their TC table for Sony FX3/FX30 - So I'm assuming it would work fine with this new FW...?
If it works on the FX3 and FX30 it should work on the a7siii but I don't have one to test to be 100% sure.
Anyone try with new firmaware if IBIS/Steady Shot will work in PC remote mode?
Hey Matt, Thanks. I download and update with your preset. However, when I try to connect to phone, I turn off airplane mode and it tell me that my bluetooth/wi-fi is malfunction. I was able to connect to my phone when it initially updated to 3.0. Not sure if it was a bug or preset break it. Anyone has the same issue? I need to reset the setting to be able to get the connect to phone function back.
As a Tentacle fanboy I’m STOKED with the new update!!
Does this mean we can Jam Sync timecode into the camera?? Not having to keep a tentacle device attached would be V nice and save other wedding videographers heaps of $$
Awesome!!! Once updated, I just wanted to let you know that your presets saved me time. Thank you so much!!!!
