    • Funny you should write this, I just got a A7v last week.  My reasons are a bit different, we were awarded a project once again where we shot the bulk last round on Sony cameras, and will be using some of the B-roll for the new shoots. I just wanted all the new parts I'm shooting on Slog 3 cine as well. It feels a lot more refined than the A74 I had a while back!
    • Of these only the Allied Vision Prosilica GT 3300 has the KAI-08050 sensor that the DB used. The Faux Bolex project was designed using Basler brand machine vision Gig-E cameras and uses Basler libraries but if someone is savvy with programming they should be able to change the code to make it work with other brands. Don't look at line scan cameras, look at area scan cameras. The FB project uses Gig-E for connection, (not USB or CameraLink.) The Basler model with the same exact sensor as the Digital Bolex is avA2300-25gc. The monochrome model would be avA2300-25gm. Other sensors also use the TrueSense colour filter and have global shutters so this might not be the only suitable camera. Basler cameras model numbers are easy to figure out. The av means their Aviator series, the A is area scan, the 2300 is the approximate horizontal pixel size, the 25 is max frame rate, the g means Gig-E connection, the c is colour (and m is monochrome.) If anyone makes one, please share your progress with us here. https://github.com/lafauxbolex  
    • Thanks! I didn’t see the other discussions. I haven’t been here in a while, as I’ve been busy installing solar panels on my roof and taking care of some other upkeep. This camera seems very quirky, which is a bonus for me. I’m looking forward to learning how to use it and figuring out what it’s good at. I’ve never had the ability to shoot at some of those frame rates, and 8K isn’t really my thing, but I’ll give it a try. It reminds me of the BMPCC OG days. Just so you know, I sold my GX800 (amazingly, a bigger and heavier camera) along with some kit lenses. I’ll probably let go of my Leica 15mm f/1.7 as well, since it won’t be of much use to me with this camera. I have a few plans for this thing, especially using some of my vintage glass, which could be a lot of fun. I’ll definitely report back once I’ve had a chance to play around with it.
    • I think we had some discussion about it! I'm very pro-Mission 1 ILS.  I've bought a couple of Backbone-modded cams over the years (well, the first one I bought as a conversion kit for an existing previous-gen GoPro, which I promptly screwed up and then sent to them to help me fix nice guys!).  The thing that's kept me from using either one is that monitoring is bad on them. The HDMI output on the older GoPro lags.  We're not talking 3 frames...  more like 1/4-1/2 second.  And the monitor output on the Insta360 One RS... isn't.  There's no wired display option for it and the wireless display to the phone is also laggy, even in an area with no wifi interference.  Neither was made for pulling focus.  And holding a wee little action camera right up to the eye to focus on its little screen (very little on the One RS) stinks - and tools to punch in, while available, are clearly an afterthought and are clunky.   So they're most usable for something where you focus once and then just roll - which doesn't fit a lot of my use cases for a smaller sensor.  Though they were great for the eclipse that came through the US a few years ago. Anyway.  The M1P ILS seems to fix that problem.  The screen is as big as you'll find on an action camera.  Wired monitoring is possible and (from what I've seen) low-latency.  Dynamoc range is, by action camera standards, good. The only reason I didn't buy one when I got the "in stock" notice from B&H was that... well, I just got a Pyxis 12K because the current sale is crazy.  That and it's GoPro - they'll be on sale for at least $100 off within a year.  That's how I got my M1P non-ILs.
    • I know we’re not supposed to talk about action cams, but this action cam is not! Why is no one talking about the Mission 1 Pro ILS? This thing looks so good. Have I bought into the YouTube shill hype? I just sold another camera and a couple of lenses to get it. Is anyone else going to pull the trigger on one?
