I like Philip Bloom. He's WAY slower paced than I usually like, but somehow he pulls it off, and I just feel relaxed instead of impatient.

Do we have a date when the update will come to the A7SIII? I heard 2/25 being floated around

this review is going to be a little bit  different to my other camera views that i've made   for a number of reasons the first one is  last summer in fact on the 3rd of august 2020   i published a video that was 75 minutes long  the second longest review that i've ever made   for youtube and as of right now it's had actually  almost 200 000 views which my channel is pretty   high so what does that have to do with this  review well that was for the sony alpha 7 s3   otherwise known as the a7sIII and the fx3 is an  a7siii with a different body so yeah pretty much   all the changes are physical the features  the recording modes the menus the image   they're all identical to the a7siii the only  software feature that was different when i tested   out the camera was it had an additional picture  profile number 11 which has s-cinetone in it   depending on when you're watching this and  if i manage to get my review out on time   there is a firmware update coming out or has  come out giving the a7s iii S cinetone I will of course cover the key features of the fx3 in this  video but if you want a really detailed look at what   the camera is capable of i highly recommend you  watch my a7s iii review it is long but i promise   you the time will fly by it's informative funny  and entertaining i think well that's what the   comments say anyway what i want to concentrate on in this review are the physical changes both the   great and the not so great trying to figure out  why sony made this camera who they made it for   what i wish they'd done differently and maybe  could still do to make it more compelling for   many people including myself and how it fits into  the whole alpha and cinema line of sony cameras the fx3 is an incredible video camera it has specs  and performance which outclass cameras many   times its price this isn't news though because  as i've said it's an a7s iii in a different body   in my "best cameras of 2020" video which  was the last video that i actually made   i awarded the best video camera of the year to  the alpha 7s iii even though it isn't officially   classified as one by sony it has the designation  interchangeable lens camera e-mount ilce which they   have used for all of their stills cameras since  2013. so despite being a mirrorless stills camera   officially it's also a killer video camera  sony's fx6 camera came in a close second   but the value for money of the a7s iii pushed  it ahead to me and the fx6 has the new acronym   i l m e which stands for interchangeable  lens movie e-mount which the fx3   also has even though it is as much a sales camera  as the a7 s3 anyway enough about names for now   the video you get from these cameras is  just beautiful i cannot emphasize this enough here's a quick run-through of the headline  features of the fx3 and the a7s iii they both have   the same full frame sensor now many people say  the camera is sampling the sensor one to one which   isn't strictly true the horizontal resolution  of the sensor is 4240 pixels and it down samples   that to get to 3840. by 2160 uhd 4k there is no  crop the horizontal field of view is identical in   stills and video with both cameras it's like this  in 4k up to 60p but when you get into 100p 120p   you do get a 1.1x crop because in this mode  it is actually sampling one to one because down   sampling is just too processor intensive you also  get full sensor 1080p recording up to 240 frames   per second although when you are in this mode in  the 200 frames per second mode you are actually   getting an effective pixels of just 1408 by 804  even though the recording will be 1920 by 1080.   so it isn't as detailed as normal hd mode and does  have moire and aliasing so because of this i do   tend to mainly use the 4k 120p for slow motion and  it does look so much better than the 200 and 240p   there is no super 35mm mode in 4k as  there aren't enough pixels for that   but there is an hd but you can use clear  image zoom to get a 1.5 times nearly flawless   digital crop in 4k although you do lose  most of the autofocus tracking abilities   both cameras have identical recording  codecs all of which are capable of 10 bit   with a varying degree of compression depending  on what you select there's a really superb XAVCS-I inftraframe codec which i really love because it  lets you edit natively without having to transcode   these proxies on most modern computers, both of the  cameras have the same dual card slots which are   dual media taking sd cards or the new cf express  type a cards for the more demanding codecs, but you   can record in every frame rate including the very  highest ones without needing these. v90 sd cards are fine it's just you won't be able to record them  in iframe neither camera are officially called   dual iso sensors but well unofficially they pretty  much are in slog3 both cameras base sensitivity is   640 iso with a usable dynamic range of about 13  stops when you get to the second sort of base iso   of 12800 you have almost the same noise levels as  640 iso with only a small drop in dynamic range   i have a dedicated video all about this which  is linked in the description below and somewhere   up there as well both cameras have a full size  hdmi out which is capable of outputting 10 bit   422 uncompressed video as well as 16 bit raw but  you do need a compatible recorder and currently   that means the atomos ninja v which takes that  16-bit raw and converts it into 12-bit prores one   it's not capable of recording in any other raw  format the video autofocus is the second best   i've ever used on any camera it was the best  until i received a review sample of the new alpha   one last week which is even better, this camera  here.The way that it is able to rack focus   in autofocus is so smooth you would swear it was  a fully manual lens being pulled by a focus puller   that being said the a7S III and fx3 is no slouch it has  amazing face and eye tracking ability it works   in every single frame rate and resolution  including raw it really is just incredible, as is   the touch screen tracking feature you just touch  the subject or object that you want to be in focus   and it will stick to them and follow them almost  like glue and when i say touch the object i mean   the screen not.... you know what i'm saying what  it doesn't have in video is animal eye auto focus   tracking in stills mode it does just not in video  mode even though in the video auto focus menu you   can select it and it clearly shows as a stills/ video feature via the icon it just doesn't work   Sony also says it doesn't work but it is time  for it to work oddly enough when in human mode it   does track some animals but it is pretty rare. Canon animal video autofocus is absolutely tremendous   so come on sony! i've had a petition going  since last year and it's been nowhere near   enough people signing it so if we can get a  lot more signatures maybe we can make it happen   the fx6 came out in late 2020 and with  it launched sony's cinema line series   it's unusual in the launch line because it wasn't  the first camera in the new lineup both the fx9   and the high-end cinema camera the venice were  included as part of this lineup which came out   much earlier they just became part of the cinema  line when that was launched. so what is this   cinema line actually let's start  with something a bit more basic   what is a cinema camera? well for me it's a  term that has really become rather meaningless   i previously had always considered digital cameras  made specifically to film movies big budget   tv shows high-end commercials etc to be cinema  cameras, the cameras i'm referring to are cameras   like the arri alexas the reds the canon c700, sony  f65 and the venice these are true cinema cameras   to me cameras which are designed to be used with a  crew not by a single operator.the cameras that can   be integrated into proper large set environments  with all the professional connections you need   and have very high end recording options and  with an image designed to mimic film as closely   as possible they also need to be able to shoot  24p dead on not 23.98 24p and have the ability   to shoot in the dci aspect ratio.t hese days  everything that isn't a stills camera seems to be   called a cinema camera and the most it's really  just marketing as these are video cameras and   there's nothing wrong with calling them that, look  is canon c100 really a cinema camera for example   of course not but it was a really  great budget super 35 mm video camera   so looking at sony's cinema line i personally  would call the venice a cinema camera the fx9   a broadcast video camera and the fx6 is a general  purpose video camera what makes the fx9 a broadcast   video camera things like the legacy codecs, the  ability to record in the wonderful interlaced   and be integrated into a broadcast infrastructure. the fx6 has no legacy codecs or ability to record   in interlaced it's not designed for broadcast  but of course it still can be used in broadcast   it can also be used for most things like the fx9  can too, both of these cameras would work really   well in cinema productions most likely being used  as b cameras but totally capable of being the main   camera they both shoot dci 4k in dead on 24p  they both shoot in 10 bit 422 and can do 16-bit   raw out, although the fx9 does need that rather  big extension on the back to do so the fx6 doesn't   so that brings us to the fx3 this is the cinema line fx3 it certainly looks the part with the lovely nice  gray color introduced with the sony venice, it's   a gorgeous design so much slicker and more  modern looking than the rather tired and   outdated alpha series of mirrorless cameras but  it is still an a7S III within that lovely exterior   and the a7SIII is not part of the cinema line  despite being essentially the same as the fx3   confusing isn't it does it really  matter what a camera is called   does the naming really matter well no of  course not but it does muddy the waters   making it really quite confusing for  people who are looking to buy a camera it certainly looks like a mirrorless stills  camera right down to the hand grip with the   shutter button yes this camera takes photos too  it has all the same photographic performance as   the a7S III, it has the exact same connections on  the body as the a7s iii we have the full size hdmi   3.5 mm mic input and 3.5 mm  headphone out usb-c for power delivery charging   and connecting to your computer and a micro  usb for things like time lapse triggers   although it does have a nice interval mode  in the stills menu which works really well   if you want a really simple way of shooting time  lapse you can go into s & q mode and go as low   as one frame per second, that looks really nice  it has the exact same fully articulating lcd   screen as the a7s ii which is a shame as  it's not the best i wish the screen was   bigger brighter and at a higher resolution  in fact we have the same quality screen   on the alpha one their flagship camera. it really  is time to improve your lcd screens please sony   and this is even more important on the fx3  because the single biggest difference to the a7s iii  is there's now no evf they've lopped it off they've decapitated the a7s iii so you can now only use the lcd screen unless  you connect an external viewing device obviously   now personally this is a big problem for me the  a7s iii has the best EVF used it's an absolute   joy to use yes it is fixed in one position  because that's what stills cameras evs alike   yeah so it's not that much using the tripod unless  it's exactly your height but for handheld shooting   it's so great when it's too awkward  to use for a specific angle or shot   then you do have the articulating lcd screen by  losing the evf there's now a totally flat top   of the camera which is rather reminiscent of the  aps-c line of stills cameras like yeah the a6500 etc   and also the new a7c although they still  have a little evf in the top left-hand corner   on top of the fx3 there is the usual  multi-interface shoe but something new   is three quarter 20 mounting points two of them  are used for the included handle pro audio unit   this is very much based on the XLR K3M device  that you can buy for sony cameras with mi shoes   gives you two xlr trs combo jacks which are  switchable from line to mic to phantom power   in addition there's a 3.5mm stereo mic  input which can be used on its own or to give you   up to four channels of 24 bit audio, having this  integrated so solidly into the handle is a really   fantastic part of the camera and something i can't  imagine being made available separately due to the   very specific way it mounts onto the fx3.i've  always worried about the XLR K3M style devices   because there's been lots of them over the  years because the mi shoe connection isn't   the most robust thing in the world, but on this  handle with those screws feels pretty solid   unlike the xlr k3m unit you don't get an included  microphone or the extension cable for the mi shoe   not having these is not that big a deal  on this camera i mean the microphone was   really never that great but better than none, the  extension cable i really do like but there's no   use for it on this camera with the handle  because you can't relocate it unlike you can with   the k3m. there's also a quarter 20 mounting  point on the grip which i think is for that   really lovely thing called vertical video my  favorite but maybe there is a secondary reason   there is also a really bizarrely placed 1/4 20  just above the hdmi port, if you attach most things   onto it you will block that port. you could use it  for an hdmi clamp though as there isn't any other   hdmi protector that comes with the camera unlike  with the a7s iii, but maybe that mounting point and   the one on the grip and underneath could be used  with the upcoming air peak drone... speculating i   don't actually. know there's quite a few changes  to the positions of the dials and buttons. the top   mode dial of the a7s iii is now a button on the rear  of the camera and the exposure compensation dial   has completely disappeared it's now purely done  through menus and shortcuts. the power switch   by the shutter button on the a7s iii has now  become a servo zoom controller although there   are currently just two full-frame servo zooms i  think that work with this, but you can also use   that servo zoom with clear image zoom. the actual  power switch is now on the rear of the camera too   there's a nice big record button on the top as  well as one on the front a very welcome addition   the shortcut buttons are pre-assigned and  labeled you can of course change them but   we now have a white balance and iso shortcuts  up on the top of the camera and the rear dial   also has marked preset functions. i really like  the new tally lights which you can turn off and   on depending on how you want to use them, there's  a small red one visible from the front the record   button on the top lights up and there's a really  bright one above the lcd screen on the back and   in the menu you can choose to have a big red  border on the lcd screen when you're recording   there really is no way you are not going to  know when you're recording on this camera   the last major physical difference between the  fx3 and the a7siii is there's now a physical   fan to avoid overheating. the a7s iii could  overheat in certain situations but very rarely especially when you have the power of temperature  set to high on the camera in the menus   don't worry about engaging this as  it has no effect on the image quality   and does no damage to your camera whatsoever  it just makes the body warm up a little bit   what's that smell? i did some really rather  unscientific overheating tests for this video both   with the screen folded to the body and flipped  out, you definitely get much longer with the screen   flipped out with both cameras. despite having the  fan i still did get overheating with the fx3 in   the 4k 120p mode i managed to get just over an  hour at 22 degrees celsius ambient temperature   and when i was at 44 degrees i got about 25  minutes, this was with the fan set to auto so   it kicked in when it needed to the a7s iii with  the screen closed obviously didn't get as long recovery available for both cameras is super  quick for the length of time it's going to   take me to tell you about the sponsor of this  video skillshare you could keep recording for   well i'll tell you just after this...whether it's  waiting for your overheating tests to complete   which is highly unlikely because  that's just a weird thing to do or   more likely waiting for your edits to render, but worse than that finding yourself struggling   to just focus on work, it's so easy to use that  time in the way that isn't the best use of it i   find if i don't keep my brain stimulated i'm not  the focus and productive person that i should be   i really am not myself and that's where  skillshare comes in, an online community with   thousands of classes covering a huge variety  of subjects. FROM VIDEO "where do you find joy in nature and art? are you feeling joyful right now or are  you anxious?Or maybe just tired? when you face the blank page are you filled with ideas or is  it hard to know what to do" learning new skills which are something different for you or  improving on things that you've always meant to be better at and for me that's photoshop and this  brilliant practical course by daniel scott has   set me on a path to finally master this software  that i really should have done a long time ago   the first 1000 people to use the link in the  description below will get a free trial and   after that it's around 10 a month. So literally.  in that short rest period for the camera you can   record for almost as long as you did before it's  shut down the fan definitely helps when things   are really hot how much i can't say categorically  as i couldn't do any testing in the real world   outside under a hot sun as it's winter here. why  anyone would need to record 4k 120p for this long   in one continuous take i don't know but if you  really want the longest recording in this mode you   could use a dummy battery into a v-lock or mains  power adapter. whilst editing this video i did one   final test using a dummy battery with the  a7s iii as the fx3 had gone back by then and   in that setup with the screen out temperature  of about 22 degrees i managed to get over six   hours of 4k 100p that is a lot and it would have  kept on going but i needed to stop it to get the   camera back to do some other things. most times  in the real world whatever that is in these days   you will be using the fz100 battery though but  with either camera if you ever do experience   any overheating issues you could use a dummy  battery solution and a v-lock battery and you   should be able to keep on going much longer. the biggest thing that the camera had over the a7s iii or me when i first learned about it was it  had S cinetone but as i've mentioned the a7s iii now has or is about to have it via firmware. now i didn't know about this until i had shot   all of my tests of course, i spent a few hours down  at richmond lock doing some side-by-side tests   with two cameras i shot in s log 3 on both of them  an fx3 in S cinetone and the a7s3 and the fake   s cinetone which is the one created by paul ream of  the extrashot YouTube channel. "but the real test   is with let's move this stick out of the way" fun fact for you, paul was actually my old boss when i   first started at sky news when i was just 18 years  old. anyway that s-cintonel tone was programmed into   the camera via the picture profile settings and  it's actually really good looking very close to   s cinetone, of course now with the real one on  the a7s iii you don't need the fake one but i was   really impressed nevertheless, but if you want  the best dynamic range you really should shoot   in s log 3 s gamut 3 cine as s cinetone does  cost you about two stops of dynamic range   i think it's finally time to address the big  questions of what's the point of this camera who's   it for and what could they done differently to  make it better, well in my opinion, by losing the evf   but giving it a very nice professional audio  solution it could definitely appeal to people   more than the a7s iii, who exactly i'm not sure.  one thing about losing evf which could definitely   appeal to certain people is it's gonna be much  better on gimbals because it doesn't have that   evf to get in the way and it is lower so  you've got a better rear clearance for heavier   lenses but you want to put the xlr handle on  at the same time as that will get in the way   this is the dji ronin rs2 with the sony a7c and a 200 to 600 mm lens and it's balanced why? because it felt impossible. will i ever use  it? no. maybe it's for vloggers as they pretty much   just use the lcd screen as they are mostly filming  themselves there is a front record button after   all so that is perfect for them but the camera is  more expensive than the a7s iii despite losing evf   but you do get the xlr handle but then is  that of any use to vloggers because they   hold the camera at about an arm's length from  their face so a shotgun mic on the xlr module   will be too close to them and pointing over  their head and there's no way of angling it   down which is how you'd have a shotgun mic  pointing at a subject in the case of the a7s iii vloggers tend to use top mics that go into  the 3.5mm input of the camera like the   rode videomic ntg or the really lovely mi shoe  cableless microphone the sony ecm b1m, both of   which are great and a much better audio solution  for vloggers so sony, thank you for sparing me the misery of having to review this thing that  i already had, for more money, the xlr inputs   nobody uses that we use lav mics tethered  like a school child would. if it's me I'd but the Sony A7S III just for the on off switch  and it's slightly cheaper slightly lighter   there you go clearly part of the price you're  paying for the fx3 is that xlr handle but if   you wouldn't use it and even if you don't use  the evf the a7sii makes more sense as at the   time of the making of this video it is much  cheaper and is the same camera, you cannot buy   the fx3 without the handle again at the time  i'm making this review maybe that will change   look i know i am of a different generation to most  people out there filming, i'm in my 32nd year of   this business which is longer than most of you lot  have been alive. i did wonder if my love of the evf   was misplaced and i'm just old-fashioned and maybe  people just used built-in lcd screens these days   so i did a poll in a couple of facebook groups  asking people how they used their a7s iiis there were different results in both groups  in one the "i only use the lcd screen" came top   in the other group most put  that they used external monitors   only using the lcd screen came in third  now i don't know how many of these people   put down external monitors because they record  with the ninja v prores raw, i should have asked   that question really because that is the only  way to record in that format. so people clearly   do like to shoot using the lcd screen a lot i do  too but i also love using the evf and it truly is   an essential feature for me when i was shooting  these shots with the manual sirui anamorphic lens   to make sure i was in focus initially i was using  the digital punch in getting it right there but   when i was rolling i had to rely upon peaking  which has never been great to be honest and even   in the evf but much worse on the lcd scree, at  least with an evf i would have had a much better   chance of accurately putting focus and after i'd  done this shot i couldn't even check the shot back   by looking in evf to make sure i've got it  because there isn't one, in playback mode on   the lcd screen you cannot zoom in on a shot to  check your focus only in stills. with an evf you   have a nice big image so you can see if you've  got it or not. the fx6 doesn't come with an evf   either it doesn't even have the loop that the fx9  has, so i added my own evf the zacuto graticall eye   so i tend to use that and the lcd screen  which i've moved to the back of the camera   but i also frequently use an external monitor  when i'm on a tripod when i'm filming interviews   the problem for me with not having an evf is i  found i was shooting my handheld stuff way lower   than i normally would, yes i am quite tall being  six foot two and when using evf shooting handheld   maybe i'm a little bit too tall at times  but i could easily squat down a little bit   i just found that hand held with the fx3 everything  was much much lower because holding the camera up   to your face to get that same sort of height  is really uncomfortable, so by default you   do keep holding the camera much lower. when i first  found out about the camera it was via presentation   and one of the things that was said was it  has a cage built into it so you don't need one   i would certainly recommend getting one if you  buy this camera and intend to mount a monitor or   an external evf like the Zacuto gratical on it alongside the xlr handle. i did try to set it   up to show you what it would be like but i would  not shoot like this because it didn't feel solid   at all or robust, it also did look rather silly but  a big part of that is the size of the evf, i don't   know of any external evfs out there that are as  good as the Zacuto gratical hd or the graticall x   that can be powered by a battery on the actual evf  all the other ones need external power and there   is no power out on the fx3. just like the a7s iii  there's only one tripod mounting point underneath   there's no additional locating hole so your  tripod plates will start to come loose and spin   a cage will fix this as it will give you many  mounting points on the underside of your camera   just be aware that you will need to buy a brand  new one for this camera as no previous cages   made for sony cameras will fit, trust me i've  tried because of the way that handle sticks out   also the camera isn't as tall as the a7 s. one thing that i would love sony to make is something   that i first showed in my fx6 review. it's an  mi shoe tilting evf add-on. the one i'm showing   here on the fx3 is the one made for the sony rx1. it's old, it's not the best evf and it isn't even   compatible with the camera but it's there to show  the concept and i think it's a really solid one   yes it does mean you couldn't use the xlr handle  and that at the same time but having a tilting evf   would be much more preferable than even the  built-in evf of the a7s iii and clearly i'm not   the only one who thinks this way as blackmagic just announced their pocket cinema camera 6k pro   which supports a $500 add-on tilting oled evf that  they've made and it looks really nice for the fuji gfx 50s and the original gfx 100 you can add  a tilting avf to that camera, it's using the same   evf but you just add a bit in between you can take  off the evf from the camera sliding the tilting   part and then put the evf on, and it isn't  just tilting, it also moves left and right   or angling left and right and it's absolutely  amazing.if they did make it they would need to   sell it with something like the mi shoe  relocating cable that comes with the xlr k3m   so you don't just have it on top of the camera  if you don't want to, you can put it in different   positions which will be very important when using  on video cameras like the fx6 because the mi shoe   is on top of the handle which is a dreadful  place to put an evf...top or the handle at the front   the fx3 is a fantastic camera but should it be  part of this cinema line? does it have the features   that make it really part of this lineup?don't  forget this lineup has the sony venice in it but   does it matter is it just marketing is it just a  name it is very confusing though.in my fx6 review   i was equally confused as it had many things  that were better than the more expensive fx9   the things which were worse than the cheaper  a7s iii and likewise the fx9 has things which   are better over the fx6 but things which are worse  than the fx6. the fx6's advantages over the s3 were   much clearer the main thing being the incredible  variable nd, s cinetone which was not on the a7s iii  at the time, and the ability to control the  noise reduction with the ability to turn it   off as well as three strength settings. that's  one of the biggest downsides to the really high   iso performance of the a7siii and the fx3. the noise  reduction cannot be turned off and it can become   really aggressive making the footage look really  quite ugly this made the fx6 the best 4k low-light   camera in the world. whilst the noise is still  there at the high isos the detail is also there   and with post-production plug-ins like neat video  you're able to get some really fantastic results   in my fx6 review i did complain  about the somewhat clunky way   the camera operated it is more or less identical  to the fx9 which i was fine with, it's just that   in between those two cameras being released  the a7s iii came out with a whole new menu system   and a touch screen function shortcut menu which  made the camera an absolute joy to use and also   the fx6 autofocus is a step back from the a7s iii because there's no touch screen tracking   i wish that some of the innovations from the a7s iii had made it to the fx6, which would have taken it   from being a great camera to an incredible camera. i still hope that maybe they can in a firmware update the fx3 has gone too far the other way  well it's gone completely because it is an a7s iii i'm not sure if i've mentioned that. it needs  to have a few key things to come over from   the fx6 and fx9 to really justify its name  and inclusion in the cinema line. i know some   people would have wanted to have variable nd  in this camera and yeah it would have been   amazing to have it but it would mean something  would have to go and that would be the ibis   because you can't have both and because you don't  have an evf you are shooting in a different way   you need some stability and the ibis gives you  that so not having it wouldn't be a great idea   so i think it needs to add the following as a bare: manual control over noise reduction, shutter angle   waveform, dead on 24p mode after all this is a  cinema frame rate and it's a cinema line camera   and also dci 4k. right now for me the fx3 sits  in the sony lineup in a rather awkward position   i'm very happy to be proven wrong and it  could well sell like hot cakes it's just   the loss of the evf makes it a no-go for me but  i really love the design and i love the handle   but then it would simply be a replacement for  my a7s iii, as you know it's the same camera   just without the wonderful evf. i think the price  of it plays a massive part of this awkwardness   being more expensive than the a7s iii it needed to be more than it is   and the xlr handle isn't enough not when you've  lost the evf because you can get the exact xlr   features of that without the handle with the 600  xlr k3m module. if the camera had the additional   software features that i mentioned i can imagine  it's selling really well at the launch price   if the camera as it is right now was the same  price of the a7s iii, i think it would still sell   but you know definitely would still sell, if it was  cheaper than the a7s iii, yes it would shift loads   i don't know it'll be really interesting to see  how many of these cameras sell i just don't know   why anyone would sell the a7s iii as a loss to buy  a more expensive version of it with no real actual   benefits camera wise. if you're looking at buying  an a7s iii would you pay more to get the fx3 knowing   was the same camera internally just to get the  new body fan and xlr handle and happily lose the evf i don't know, quite possibly, i mean let me  know what you think down in the comments below   i normally feel like i'm pretty good at  knowing if a camera is going to do well or   not but this one has just left me so unsure and  considering it's such an incredible video camera   and still a really great price for what it  does it is a really bizarre thing for me to say
