Its worth every penny and never has disappointed us. We own four of these and travel extensively on reality TV assignments. Built rugged enough and reliable for what we do. Sony was good about a problem we had with the HD SDI output outside the 90 period due to our production cycle.
I've only had the camera for two weeks and out on four shoots: White House multi-cam, interviews, March for Our Lives. Overall I am very pleased with the camera and its image quality.
We shoot documentary, narrative, commercial and corporate so we needed a versatile 4K system. Love the image quality. The variable ND is a great feature. The 18-110 is a solid lens. I wish it were a little faster, but for the price - it's excellent.
Intuitive to set up. Easy to use once you understand all of the settings (watch Youtube tutorials!). Image is amazing and shoulder rig is a huge improvement over Mk 1.
Lots of youtube videos needed to work every feature but well worth it.
First off, a little background. I have never used the original Fs7, and before using the Fs7 ii I was using Canon systems primarily. Like a lot of people turned off by Sony, I had internalized the usual myths: poor ergonomics, poor menu design, poor autofocus, bad button layout, lens mount system...
Wow, what a great camera. We use these for everything from reality tv to corporate video and live multi-camera events. They always get positive reviews. I like the menus and wide variety of settings.
Does everything we need in a 4k solution
The competition didn't stand a chance of getting my money on this purchase.On virtually every spec, this camera shines. Ready to run and gun straight out of the box - ergonomics are workable without any further purchases, although you can of course greatly improve things that way if you want to.
Before making this purchase, I owned the previous model, the FS7. There were a couple upgrades that worked marvelously: namely the Electronic Variable ND. Though the Auto function of it doesn't really expose properly, especially when shooting S-LOG 3, manual mode has been really valuable in outdoor...
