review

By Hogan on 1/02/18

I  travelled  all the way from Germany to Singapore to get myFS7K Mark 2, As I Have a Job in Bali.
Back home in Germany for the same price I paid in Expandore I could get only FS7K mark 1.
Expandore is the real shop offering a lot of professional video stuff, it is a real one stop shop where I could get most
of the Video Gear I need. I am lucky to find your shop in Singapore, Great Saving for me

Sony PXW-FS7

The Sony FS7 is by far the most versatile and cost effective camcorder solution in the market today. As a company, Pacific TV, was searching for a system to fulfil our varied needs for the longest time. Not only must the camera have great capabilities but ergonomics is a very strong factor in our decision. I will be honest, the ergonomics is not perfect, but its a far better than anything out there today. We do a varied portfolio of work, ranging from documentaries for Discovery and National Geographic to corporate films for Volvo to TVCs. Here's the thing, in more than 90% of the cases, the FS7 fits the bill for the jobs. Here's where I mentioned versatility, we got one camera to provide solutions for a wide range needs. The FS7 is of course modular, enabling us to custom fit the camera for each project. But again, without spending a bomb, the FS7 is good to go with minimal modifications. Unlike, a brand I shall not mention where the cost to retrofit and gain a semblance of ergonomics will set u back almost the price of an FS7. For us anyway, the functionality, cost and ergonomics are hard to beat. That's not to say its perfect, far from it. But as compared to the options available today, its by far the best. And it takes a fair bit of beating as well! Our shoots bring us into some pretty tough situations where the camera has been abused and after some heart stopping moments, carries on working as normal. We at Pacific TV have a philosophy in our acquisition process. We are out to buy a capability or capabilities, not a toy. And if im honest, the FS7 has provided us with a fair few capabilities.
