Sony FX3 – Full Beginner Setup Guide

1 year ago

Congratulations on your new Sony FX3! Or if you are just here for informational purposes, welcome! I hope this video provides you with the tools you need to get up and running with the Sony FX3 so you don't get frustrated with the extremely dense menu system. I know when I first transitioned from the iPhone, the menu depth was a bit daunting but I hope this video gives you some clarity.

If you want my settings, you can purchase them to help support the channel on my website here: https://www.jackofmanytradesmedia.com/store/p/sony-fx3-setting-profile
