Potential to be great!
Bought a few weeks ago and loving it so far. If it just had DCI and true 24p it would perfect! Other than that, a great camera

Latest updated killed possibility to use V mount
The first and only Cinema camera which doesn't allow to use of V mount batteries or any other batteries. After the last update, you can not use V-mount batteries (any production standard) or any 3-rd party batteries, therefore it is useless for big production when you need your camera to run all the time and and use V-mount batteries.

Excellent - questionable firmware update / app
I have used the FX3 for some time now full-time in corporate and short film production and it is simply awesome. The Camera had performed well and until the latest firmware worked flawlessly. Since the latest firmware, said it only had to do with the new app, it has been getting a battery error, never had that issue any time beforehand but the second I installed the firmware to the app update it started happening. Linking the app to the FX3 has never worked and it causes the FX3 to crash, meaning it becomes non-responsive and you can't turn it off. Sony wants me to send in the camera and all my batteries, but that would mean valuable downtime. So not sure what to do yet. Back to the camera, before the app firmware update, and even after this, ignoring the incompatible battery thing and flaky battery readings after the warning the FX3 is just fantastic. perfect for everything, gimbal, black arm, Tilta Float. So no complaints about the camera itself.

Amazing Do-It-All Pro camera
This camera is the most useable camera I ever got. You can shoot almost all types of content thanks to different codecs - Intra and also HEVC, you can use autofocus for quick projects but also use manual focus lenses for bigger productions.

False color
After the shutter angle announced to be included in the upcoming update please make sure we have an embedded false color instead of us using external false color luts that often arent as accurate as an in cam false color can be

Worst Camera I ever have
I bought this camera 8 months ago in Dubai, and now the power switch don't work, I have to remove the battery and re insert it to power it. Many times the camera freeze, I should restart it. I didn't expect that. Now I have to pay an air ticket to bring it in the shop I bought it in dubai to repair.

The Perfect Cinema Camera
I got the FX3 for long-form videos and never had experience with a cinema camera before that. I wasn’t expecting anything too different from my other Sony cameras like the A7IV, and while the menu system is similar, the FX3 is really fun to use for video. I love the A7IV, but if you want something designed for video with a similar form factor, the FX3 is incredible. I love that it’s full-frame and I can use the same lenses across my FF cameras. The video quality just has a certain look to it that’s not as digital looking as other cameras. It’s easy to use and the tally lights on the front and back are awesome to have. The build quality is top notch and button layout is smart. I love the handle it comes with and the XLR inputs work really well. I also was able to add to the handle and rig it a little bit but still keep it simple. I’m also really impressed with the photo quality! Genuinely surprised by the photos. They look like any other Sony. I thought they would be softer with less resolution but they look amazing. Unless you’re printing big physical photos, this is fully capable of photos like how 99% of people view them on digital screens. The FX3 is AWESOME!!
