The C70 has the same sensor as the C300 MKIII so that could be why. But then you question why isn't the A7s III or FX3 approved when the FX6 is approved and they all share the same sensor.

My guess is that it's what they've been asked to approve and upon which they've done their due diligence.

For Netflix Originals, I would assume most productions are done on rental gear. The difference between renting an FX3 and an FX6 isn't going to be significant at production-budget scales. (And if you had a real burning reason to use something off-list I would bet they can write you an exception.)

That's what I'm curious about as well, as I'm looking at the FX3.
