    Thanks so much I agree that your apsc observations have been overlooked, even by big UA-camrs, and thanks for all the subtle well hidden tips in your why's explanations and I'm also predicting that in the not too distant future, that most people who didn't like Sony's focus mapping feature, will all of a sudden do haha 😂😉! Thanks for all that please keep up the good work 👍🙂

      Totally. I think as soon as people spend the time to learn how to use Focus Mapping it's going to be a massive selling point. Incredibly useful on smaller screens. 👽
      I'm glad you spotted my tips. :) Hope you found them useful.

      @@WildShadowsZA I totally agree too and never thought that your small screens idea, but come to think of it, that's where it'll really shine and cheers much and sure did
      When I've got enough money I'll get one
      I never thought I'd ever get an apsc but this is just too good to pass for the money lol

    Great points! My favorite 'criticism' of the FX 30 were the UA-camrs who dismissed it immediately because it was 'only' Super35 - clearly intended for amateurs only - just like the new Arri Alexa 35 at $80K!! Bit depth is the key 10 bit in Slog3 is very gradeable - and the downsampled 6K sensor produces beautiful images form what I have been getting. The other key feature is the DR of over 14 stops (and I just saw another review where they actually tested and found over 14 stops of DR as claimed- in fact the DR tested to be the same as the FX 3 and FX 6!) The noise level is very acceptable and organic until you get up to extremely high ISO's ....

      So true that and wow that DR is amazing! Camera of the year in my opinion

      I've got my hands on one and can't wait to stress test its dynamic range. Are those 14 stops perceivable in real-world conditions or are they "lab" stops? This is what I want to know. Regardless of the results: the DR at the price is an incredible deal. 📽

    This is such a nice camera but I'm worried about the grain, even on the launch trailer for the fx30 it had grain in some parts of it and I'll definitly be shooting a lot in lowlight

    • @WildShadowsZA
      @WildShadowsZA  2 роки тому

      I wouldn't be worried. I believe the trick is understanding how the FX30 specifically performs at certain ISO levels. The low-light performace is best in class.

      There is a place in the market for both, no doubt. Having shot on both I must say I prefer the FX30.

      @@botbot3698 The BMPCC is a great option, but I find it to be an awkward camera to operate and not entirely reliable. Both with the battery life and the camera's OS. The FX30 has the bit depth I need and a much nicer to camera to operate, even when shooting solo. The reliability is a big deal to me.
