Exposure help

Hi everyone! Earlier this spring I sold my A7S3 to upgrade into a FX6 and I love it so far. There’s just one thing that I struggle with consistently that I never did with the A7S3. I either underexpose or overexpose very often and find it very difficult to find the sweet spot. I realise that it’s also skill and knowledge that factors in but if anyone has any tips or tricks on how to nail exposure more consistently I would really appreciate it! All love 🙏

Really enjoy shooting football with this camera

Using a Fujinon 22x ENG Lens for my shoulder rig. Shot in 48fps in S-Cinetone. Since the camera body is light, I noticed the setup is front heavy and had to constantly adjust where the shoulder pad is.

Atomos Ninja with FX6 question

I want to run a single monitor setup on my fx6, ideally a ninja so I can record in more codecs. I am wondering if this is possible without recording the fx6 settings and menus as I’ll be using this as a display monitor and recorder and don’t want to attach the stock fx6 monitor as well. Thanks!

Top Handle

Been having to use the kondor blue handle because I can’t seem to get my top handle to work. Doesn’t seem to get recognized by the body. I’ve made sure it’s connect properly but still no luck. Nothing works, the buttons nor the inputs. Has anyone had this issue and figured it out? Is there anything I can try to troubleshoot? Wish someone near me had an fx6 so I can try their handle on my body but I don’t.

Fx6 broken?

UPDATE: Just going to return to B&H.

Bought used fx6 with 3 hours on it. No scuffs so doesn’t appear to have been dropped. Any ideas what’s wrong with it?

Sunrise timelapse tips?

Hey friends!

I am looking to timelapse a sunrise with my FX6 on Friday morning and looking for some tips.

I do not have very much experience with timelapse photography or filmmaking, so all advice and tips are welcome!

What settings usually work the best? Anyone use the Auto ND feature to account for the shift in exposure?

What am I not asking that I should be asking?

Accessible lenses:
Sony 24-70 f/2.8 GM II
Voigtlander APO Lanthar 50 f/2
Voigtlander APO Lanthar 28 f/2

NEED HELP!

I just bought a used fx6 off B&H. Was bought new and returned within 30 days.

For the life me I cannot find how to fix this artifact/banding issue.

Am I missing something?

Hoping the camera isn’t defective and it’s something silly. Been trying to figure it out for hours.

Thanks!

Best Travel Bags

What is the best travel bag? I know there isn't truly a best one because that's all personal preference, but what is a bag that you personally like and think is the best for the FX6 to travel with? I have seen two that I personally like, but I am not sure how they hold up on a plane. One of them was the schlep dr. Bag. The other one was the sakk pack do any of you have any of these? How do you like them? I haven't traveled with my FX6 yet. Normally, I use my FX3 in a Pelican. As a carry on

FX6 not working with Monitor & CTRL

I’m in the newest update. Whenever I try to turn on wireless LAN this happens, so I haven’t been able to connect my FX6 to the app.
