If you’re here wondering if you should purchase the FX2 or the FX3a, you can learn a lot more about those cameras here. When it comes down to it, the higher native ISO on the FX3 is going to be the deciding factor. As a production company that does everything from working on sets with controlled lighting to covering events in all types of lighting situations - we will always pick the FX3. If you are a run and gun documentary style shooter than you should be picking up the FX3. If you are always finding yourself in a controlled lighting environment, or focus mostly on stills and want to get into video - the FX2 is probably the right choice for you! Whereas the blog I linked above is a really good overview of both cameras, this one just focuses on what I think is the most important part- Native ISO.

That’s because no two video projects are exactly the same. At Bunker Hill Media, every project is priced out individually based on scope, creative needs, and how the final video will be used.

So let’s break down what typically affects video pricing, and what you can expect when working with a Boston-based production company like us.

So, you’re thinking about creating a brand video. First of all — good move. In 2025, video remains one of the most powerful tools for building trust, connection, and visibility online. According to Wyzowl’s latest Video Marketing Statistics report, 91% of businesses use video as a marketing tool, and 88% say video gives them a positive ROI.

But what actually makes a brand video great?

At Bunker Hill Media, we’ve worked with dozens of businesses in Boston (and beyond) to bring their stories to life on screen. Some brand videos land with impact, and others fall flat — and it almost always comes down to the same core ingredients.

Here’s what we’ve learned.

Cutting to the chase here- I think the FX2 will put the FX30 out of business. I’m confused by the release of the FX2 because of how close it is to the FX30… it’s just a tiny bit better where I don’t know why you’d purchase the FX30 anymore…then again I’d probably get the FX30 ONLY so I don’t have that annoying viewfinder in my way.

I think that these are both really good starter cameras, but if you’re seriously looking to start a career in filmmaking and videography know that at some point you will have to upgrade to the FX3 or higher.

If you’re looking for a quick answer - here is my take: If you prioritize photo and are looking for a camera that can take video get the FX2. If you prioritize video and take photos here and there, like we do, get the FX3. If you are a serious video production company - don’t expect to rely on that FX2 as your main workhorse to get your job done the right way.

There is no need to rush to the store to replace your FX30 with an FX2. I think there is no harm in doing that because I think there is a better case for comparison between those two cameras vs the FX3 - but that’s for another blog!

Today we are comparing the FX3 and the FX2 so you can make a really informed choice on which will be better for your production needs.

As a video-first production company based in Boston, we’re still team FX3. But let’s be clear: the FX2 is still a very cool camera with serious potential for hybrid shooters, content creators, and anyone who wants a powerful full-frame camera with incredible stills capabilities.

Also… I think the eye piece would drive me absolutely nuts.

As Sony continues to expand its Cinema Line offerings, two models often up for comparison are the Sony FX3A and the Sony FX6. Both cameras offer full-frame sensors, cinematic color science, and impressive low-light capabilities—but they serve slightly different types of shooters. In this blog, we break down the key differences between the FX3A and the FX6 to help you understand how they stack up.

A well-made testimonial video can be one of the most powerful tools in your marketing toolkit. When done right, it builds trust, adds social proof, and shows potential clients what it actually feels like to work with you.

But we’ve also seen testimonial videos fall flat—bad audio, stiff delivery, or vague praise that doesn’t actually move the needle. So let’s break down what makes a testimonial video great, and what you should avoid.

TL;DR - if you REALLY want your LCD screen resolution to be a tiny bit better then get the FX3A. Otherwise hold onto your FX3. One things for sure… we won’t be upgrading our already really awesome rig!
