Reddit reviews Sony PXW-FS7M2/ FS7 Mark II 4K XDCAM Super 35 Camcorder Kit with 18-110mm Zoom Lens Basic Bundle

>If you read that list and thought something was missing we’d really like to hear your thoughts.

u/Ou812icRuok - it looks like you might be missing a video camera with 10-bit codec for broadcast; 4K/60p; better dynamic range than a still camera; built-in shoulder mount, NDs and XLRs - and a solid tripod to handle it.

With your existing Sony setup, I recommend an FS7 Mark II bundled with the 18-110 lens (that you're already planing to buy) for $11,898 ($100 less than the price at Adorama or B&H).

I also recommend a tripod with a 100mm bowl if you ever want to put the camera on a jib. A Sachtler FSB10 with aluminum sticks will cost you $3263.25.

We use Sachtlers at work and they are the best value for money tripods you can buy - better than Miller, Vinten and Cartoni - and much better than Manfrotto and the rest of the prosumer brands.

Here is a great video from ProAV TV called 5 Reasons why our customers choose the FS7 MKII that explains why this is the best pro video camera in this price class.

And this short video from Newsshooter explains What's new on the Sony FS7 II ? The quick guide to what you need to know.

Hope this is helpful and good luck with spending your 2019 budget!
