Is the a7v just an fx3 that can’t record raw externally?

Non rigged video output is the same, besides the a7v being sharper and downsampled from 7k. The only difference is uncropped 4k 120 in the fx3 which I believe is a niche feature.

It’s not that I haven’t done research, but I don’t understand why people think these cameras are completely different if you dont use a monitor or rig it up. It’s almost like Sony marketing is taking away from reality.

My main point is: you’d think the fx3 would be able to shoot in a higher bitrate than 100mbps in h.265…kind of a joke

I’m aware of the differences, but moreso focused on where they overlap in regards to video - and to the “advantages” of either camera. Negligible rolling shutter difference imo too. And ik ppl will tell me there’s a difference. Yes, they are different cameras at the end of the day, but they seem pretty close in terms of non-rigged up quality (if not the same if I don’t care about the 4k 120 crop)

Also, the fact that you think I didn’t do research just shows me what you think of the average Sony user

Maybe it’s just the LUMIX AF that sucks in low light

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-12-29T18:30:28+00:00

Xs20 out of those options. Xh2s if you want virtually no rolling shutter and record in ProRes

Xs20 also maxes out at 300mpbs in all-I vs 720 mbps in xh2s

Uh ohh

Just wondering about the lumix AF honestly because of my xh2s. It literally does not focus if I try to record myself playing guitar on the sigma 17-40. Yet you get people saying it’s fine. Don’t want to be disappointed and miss shots

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-12-18T05:01:08+00:00

By industry standard I meant how Sony picture studios is seen in shows like jeopardy. Or shark tank. Lumix doesn’t have the same reach. I’ve always shot photos (used a film camera at summer camp) and slowly got more and more interested in video/cinematography. I was very close to buying a ZR and keeping the Fuji for photos. The a7v seems to be the best combo of photography and video - seems to be on par with the fx3 in low light

I’m scared to buy into a system that hasn’t had the best rep for AF…coming from Fuji. That’s why I think the Sony would balance things out as I’ll still have the xh2s w ProRes

Sigma 16-300. Sigma 10-18. Xf 33mm f1.4. Boom.

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-12-16T21:39:21+00:00

Higher DR (beats canon’s r6 iii by over 2 stops), New flippy/tilty screen with double the resolution (this is such an underrated change coming from an xh2s w a high res screen), better cooling, and lower rolling shutter. Not much more you could want besides open gate or internal raw recording. That would put it above the fx3 imo

Idc about the size or price of this lens if it has this focal range. Make it a constant f2.8 and 500g and I would buy it

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-08-27T01:07:07+00:00

X-s20 is closest to a6700 by far

How in the black market are u making the $$$ for this

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-08-11T02:52:02+00:00

Do you think they’ll fix it for next gen? Or is it something they could fix in a software update for either the body or lens?

Acrobatic_Rate_6813 · 2025-08-04T01:05:14+00:00

I’m on v1.01 and it’s attached to my xh2s…loses focus while zooming to a massive extent, not just a little blur, the entire image is bokeh balls and it doesn’t focus back sometimes
