Sony A7R VI - What Does This Mean for the FX3?

In this video, I break down every video feature on the Sony A7R VI — from 4K 120p with 5K oversampling and a stacked sensor, to the brand new Dual Gain shooting mode, custom video settings, dual USB-C ports, and improved battery life. I also look at what this camera's video capabilities could mean for the future of Sony's dedicated video line, including the FX3. 00:00 The A7R VI is surprisingly good for video 00:29 4K video specs — 120p, 5K oversampling & full pixel readout 01:45 8K video — 10-bit 4:2:2 and 8.2K oversampling explained 02:16 Stacked sensor & rolling shutter improvements 02:41 Dual Gain shooting — better shadows, less noise 03:47 Super 35 crop modes & getting extra reach 04:45 Custom video settings — up to 10 programmable modes 07:09 32-bit float audio with the XLR-K3M handle 07:48 Dual USB-C ports — power & monitoring at the same time 08:43 The new tally light 09:08 Illuminated buttons for low-light shooting 09:39 Thermal improvements & longer recording times 10:10 New NP-SA100 batteries & dual charger 11:42 Final verdict — is the A7R VI a video powerhouse? 12:40 What's missing — waveforms, anamorphic & open gate CAMERA GEAR + EDITING TOOLS I USE ▸ How I add Film looks + Halation - https://geni.us/filmconvert-cb ▸ LUTs I use to grade - https://geni.us/phantomluts (get 15% OFF with code 'Chris') ▸ Music Artlist (2 Months For Free!): https://bit.ly/artlist-chrisbrockhurst - My favourite platform with a huge variety of songs + SFX and unlimited licenses. ---------------------------------------------------------- CAMERA ACCESSORIES TO TRY Super fast card reader - https://geni.us/progradecardreader Better than a pro mist - https://geni.us/blacksatin3 Solve WB issues anywhere - https://geni.us/expoWBdisc ---------------------------------------------------------- CAMERAS I USE ▸ lowlight vid cam - https://geni.us/S-FX3 ▸ camera for cinematic photos - https://geni.us/sonya7cii ▸ old vid cam - https://geni.us/sonya7siii ▸ high MP stills cam - https://geni.us/A7iv ▸ cheap cinema cam - https://geni.us/tSeiY2 ---------------------------------------------------------- FPV & DROME ▸ Avata 2 - https://geni.us/YpoQd ▸ drone with zoom - https://geni.us/IUJpID ▸ best travel drone - https://geni.us/djimini3procb ---------------------------------------------------------- BEST BUDGET LENSES ▸ 50mm - https://geni.us/sony50mmF18cb ▸ 24mm F1.8 - https://geni.us/viltrox24mm ▸ 85mm F1.8 II - https://geni.us/viltrox85mm ▸ (all in one -) Sigma 24-70 - https://geni.us/sigma2470 ---------------------------------------------------------- LENSES I USE ▸ start with this lens - https://geni.us/sigma2470 ▸ crazy wide lens - https://geni.us/qsHt ▸ Real Estate Lens - https://geni.us/Sony1635F4CB ▸ cinematic 24mm - https://geni.us/Sony24mmF14CB ▸ The BOKEH lens - https://geni.us/50mmf12 ▸ Close up lens - https://geni.us/sony90mmmacro ▸ Sharp budget lens Lens - https://geni.us/Sony55mmF18CB ▸ Zoom + Macro lens - https://geni.us/sony70200f4ii ---------------------------------------------------------- MICS I USE ▸ Best Sony Mic https://geni.us/ecmb1m-cb ▸ Other best mic - https://geni.us/ecmb10 ---------------------------------------------------------- BAGS ▸ 35L bag I use - https://geni.us/nomatic35l ---------------------------------------------------------- LIGHTING ▸ Main Studio Light - https://geni.us/aputure120dcb ▸ Studio light Dome - https://geni.us/lightdomecb ▸ Budget Light - https://geni.us/godoxsl60 ▸ Budget light Dome - https://geni.us/neewerlightdomecb ▸ Battery powered Light - https://geni.us/aputure60xcb ▸ Spotlight Zoom (for pattern on wall) - https://geni.us/spotlightminizoom ---------------------------------------------------------- All gear I use: https://geni.us/amazoncb Wedding Gear I use on Kit: https://kit.co/chrisbrockhurst ---------------------------------------------------------- AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE Some of the links used in the description will direct you to Amazon, as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you. ---------------------------------------------------------- SPONSORSHIP/COLLABS If you are looking to do collaborations, offer sponsorships, or any other requests, hit me up here: Chris@craterr.com ----------------------------------------------------------
