      Ouch! I think there's also a difference in approach of what you shoot. One on end of the spectrum there's this idea that you have a camera with many limitations and you either create the shots you want or you look for the shots that work.  This is the idea of shooting with only a prime lens.  A lot of people who use cameras that are limited have this mentality. You either get what you get but you get enough good shots that it's worth it (like a photography walk) or you change what is there to make sure you get the shots you want (directing a scene). The other end of the spectrum is you shoot what is there.  This means the camera has to capture what is there, like wedding shooters have to get certain shots, ENG crews have to capture whatever is happening, etc. For me, my priority is capturing what happens, so I want the camera to fit the scene, rather than the other way around. This aligns very much with the cinema vs video camera priorities, but it's a different way of looking at it. Either way is fine, but the differences are a big source of why people from the first camp give really dismissive and condescending advice to the people in the second camp, like "just use a phone" or "who cares if your image looks like crap".

      If I could only have ONE CAMERA

      By IronFilm · Posted

      Yeah in the context of what else existed back then, then Magic Lantern was amazing. Especially for the cost (if you couldn't afford a RED Epic).  But in 2024???  You need to either be insane, or doing it purely for the fun of the process, or have zero clue whatsoever about the bigger picture needs.  As we're spoiled with so many choices today that could be a better fit for your project.     Yikes!!! He badly needs to upgrade from a Zoom H Series to a Zoom F8n.    I think rather than dealing with a ML raw then if I wanted a hybrid camera that's weather sealed I'd go instead with a Canon 1D C or a Nikon Z8 or Panasonic S1H / GH6  or Sony FX3 / FX30 (or perhaps a7Smk3) or Fujifilm X-H2s or Canon R6 mk2 / R7 / R8 etc Because raw is over rated, and 10bit is good enough 99% of the time. Especially if you're working in an environment where weather sealing / low visibility / run & gun / etc matters! As you likely don't have a tonne of card space with you, along with a 1st AC, and DIT on set, to handle the data offloads and to be checking the footage.  Rather you want something simple, reliable, and fast. Which isn't what describes ML raw, but does fit the use case of the Canon 1D C / Nikon Z8 / S1H / X-H2s / GH6 / FX30 / etc

      If I could only have ONE CAMERA

      By IronFilm · Posted

      I've been toying a little with buying another camera, a CCD one for the hell of it and the unique look.  Seems like the Nikon D200 was the best ever CCD DSLR? And it's almost being given away at how low the prices are now.  Either that or go nuts for "the best" with the Pentax 645D's massive medium format digital sensor that uses CCD, but that's still well over $1K secondhand    Good point. A camera can come out that's 10% better than an ALEXA but if there is even a one day learning curve for the editor and grader to get up to speed with handling this new footage, then it's not a good deal for them to go with.
