    • Hi Friends, It's been another busy week creating music for clients, but I did manage to get some new tracks done to share with you all.  They're on my Action page: "CAR THEFT 101" (LoFi) "NIGHT TIME ESCAPE" (LoFi) "GRUNGE STREET GAME" (LoFi) https://soundimage.org/action/ Speaking of custom music, if anyone needs some help, feel free to email me. You'll find my contact information here: https://soundimage.org/custom-work/ See you in July!  🙂
    • The 2nd and 3rd are the most extreme, but I think the third-last (with the plant and green chair) is the best as it shows the image being sharp but also having a painterly quality to it.  It depends if you're interested in photography or videography.  People seem to love lenses to be enormously distracting in photos but for video they are often way too much, like this lens was for this subject. These are frame grabs from a C4K Prores file on a 1080p timeline. In scenes without a strong light-source that blooms, it is just a lower contrast softer lens.  From memory, it sharpens up substantially at F4, but if that's what you want then you may as well use a kit lens!
    • You mentioned the 50D, so here is a ML RAW video test I shot with that camera in 2013, just using the 18-55mm kit zoom lens. The location is Weymouth Harbour, which I have often used for other tests so I can compare different cameras. The CinemaScope frame size was 1584 x 662, then enlarged to FHD for YouTube. I bought the camera secondhand purely for ML RAW shooting. Although I was using a battery grip, the camera still got very hot (really hot -- sometimes you couldn't keep your hand on top of the pentaprism hump). Also, as I'm sure you know, the camera is not capable of recording sound, so you'll have to make a separate arrangement for that. With all that said, the images have a retro feel, and (unlike with plastic cameras) just holding the solid body made it fun to use.      
    • I haven’t forgotten, I’m just a bit of a lazy bastard. I’m now in sunnier climes but normal overcast drizzle will be resumed when I get back in about a month so I will do it then. With the new PYXIS monitor upgrade for the Studio 4K G2 it might well be shot on that.
    • It was indeed. Was waiting for the firmware update before buying the monitor obviously but won’t be back in range of a dealership for the next month so it will have to wait. No, it’s the Micro Studio G2 so it is to all intents and purposes a cinema camera too just that it was lacking some easy control and monitoring for standalone use which has now been addressed with this monitor. Not completely because it is still missing the BLE control but it is now more or less a modular P4K. Which everyone claimed to absolutely need but judging by how little interest this camera gets didn’t translate too well into reality. Like Panasonic’s box versions of the GH5 and S5 didn’t either.
