  • FS-700 Vs EX-3

    Posted by Milo Sumner on November 7, 2013 at 10:25 am

    Hi,

    my organisation has been using a Sony PMW EX-3 for several years. It’s been used around the world and in general all results have been great and it’s proved itself a handy and concise bit of kit. The time has come however, to move on and we are considering Sony’s FS-700.
    My question is this: What are the pros and cons of the FS-700 compared to the EX-3 in terms of ease of use in diverse environments (e.g. At sea, in the jungle, etc). Does it lend itself to shooting on the go?
    The main benefit of the FS-700 is its cinematic quality compared to the EX-3, but will we have to find endless attachments in order for it to be fit to send out with a one-man crew?

    Please don’t hesitate to ask if any questions need clarifying.

    Thanks
    EJF

    The slowmotion is ofcourse a big plus!

    Disadvantage of the 700 is that you can’t put it on your shoulder because the viewfinder is in a stupid place, in my opinion.
