Sony FX3 vs Sony FX30

“People like me that are hybrid shooters and clients require both video and photography in the same shoots. An EVF is essential for photography so the fx3 is useless to me. We already must each carry at least two cameras for different lens options/backups. Imagine if we had to do the same for video, we would need 4 cameras per person. By the a7s existing, that cuts it down to 2. If the fx3 had an EVF, then maybe I would agree with you, but until that happens, I hope the a7s line never goes away and instead they make an a7siv with 24mp so that the photos have more resolution and it can do native 6k.”

““…it is important to note that where the FX30 falls short – it’s the “stills mode” when compared to the FX3. Some features and functions are not provided with the new camera. There is no mechanical shutter, continuous still shooting, or uncompressed RAW. Also missing is the image sensor “anti-dust function” and AF illuminator. If you are into photography, you will find that the camera is not compatible with an external flash and NFC communication is not available.””
