Gear We Use
SONY FX3 CINEMA CAMERA
This camera is stunning!
It has a full frame sensor and films in 4k at up to 120 fps .
10 bit color makes for vivid images, and the incredible focus features make it easy to track any subject that's on the move so the shot is always in focus!
Above all else, we just can't get over the superb
cinematic image quality of this camera!
SONY A7S iii
This camera has the same exact internal functions as the FX3, and the image looks identical. It has a few variations to the external body such as a built in viewfinder which makes this camera a perfect match to go with the FX3. Our favorite thing about this camera is it's sensitivity in low light. Although we always light our subjects well, this camera gives us the ability to capture a beautiful image even with minimal light. The dynamic duo of the SONY FX3 and the SONY A7S iii helps our team capture any film shoot in a beautiful way!
