So on the surface it seems like Sony wins this battle with the FX3’s dual base ISO of 800 and 12,800 ISO. Canon on the other hand has a dual base ISO of 800 and 6400. The difference of 6400 and 12,800 ISO is one stop, and while that could make a big difference 1 stop is probably not that big of a deal…until it is.

Sony’s battery is great, but now there are some really good affordable options in the aftermarket space allowing you to shoot longer for less. Add in USB-C charging as a relatively standard feature and you’ll be shooting all day long and packing less chargers around with you.

I think when considering your first lighting kit for your camera, whatever the brand may be, you first need to determine the main application for the lighting.
