I last did some screen grabs in resolve 18, when i bothered to dl 20, i think they changed how you grab frames as nothing i did seemed to grab a frame. 20 was new at the time and there were no tutorials that i could find More by good luck than good management i figured it out. I do think its easier / faster in to do in 20. Just letting you know so you avoid some hiccups. -
The C100 would suffer from the same problem that all workhorse cameras suffer from - the best images from them are made by people who are so good at making images they don't post to social media and/or don't list their equipment if they do post. I wonder how many big budget productions have C100 shots mixed in with the C200/C300 main stuff but used the C100 as a higher-risk or mounted cam due to its size and relatively low cost if something happened to it. I've got the occasional beautiful image from my XC10 when the stars aligned and the location and lighting and composition were all working together, and that had a tiny sensor and 10x variable aperture zoom lens. The C100 almost matched it in pixel-peeing terms despite being 1080p and In similar situations the much larger sensor and ability to have nice lenses would be game over. -
VLC has a feature (available via a hotkey) that saves a screen grab as a PNG. It's not a very good player though unfortunately, on Mac anyway. It can't play backwards, and the feature to advance a single frame works at first but seems to get bogged down, and after you've advanced even a few frames it seems incapable of going back to playing again. I know you said you were editing in Premier, but (IIRC) the free version of Resolve does timelines up to UHD and can grab screen grabs relatively easily. It would require a bit of setup where you pull the clips into a timeline, then the grabbing would be like butter, then the export of all the grabs takes a few steps, but the ease of finding the right frames might be worth the 30s to setup and export at the end? Both are options though.

I’m not sure how much of this ARRI log C3 is over-hyped… Having looked at some of the footage shot side by side with standard log, very little difference and with some samples, I prefer the standard log. And anyway, the Phantom LUTS by Joel F are designed to ‘mimic’ various versions of ARRI. I’m more than happy with those and think they look better than the standard log…which itself to me looks better in most cases than this new cost option download. None of these things will turn your $3000 mirrorless into an actual ARRI camera, but then how many can afford, never mind need an ARRI 35? Not a fan of subs either. Pretty sure it’s not for me. -
Very logical, for my specific needs anyway. I had even considered going back to the S1R and never wanted to part with my S1H, but both would have been a compromise in my current and future workflow. And yes, for the kind of work we do in the conditions we do, the S5ii (or X) is a better option. Well straight out of the box anyway as there are some workarounds such as dummy batteries, recording to SSD and in some folks cases, simply having the right fan settings on in the camera in the first place! Or even do what I do and that is if I am going to have my static’s outdoors in direct sunlight for any length of time, prior to switching them on, I chuck a white handkerchief over each with an elastic band. Makes a HUGE difference. Costs literally nothing except the thought process in the first place. It does seem though very much a case of the user error stuff aside, having these mega sensors, writing to CF Express (which tend to get hotter than SD) in a body that has not increased in size, has resulted in a big chunk of post-release negativity which has the diehard Sony Boys laughing and pointing. 99.9% sure that it won’t affect me due to my intended use, but I guess I’ll find out over the rest of this Summer eh? Also, the launch price put me off. That coupled with the fact they did not take the body as far as I hoped they would, but I picked up an open box unit for £2700 which is not far off what I have been offered for the A7RV, so even with my next 2 lens purchases, with my 2 body plus 4 lens sales, depreciation aside (I’ve had my fair working use out of my kit), this whole deal is not really costing me anything. And the icing on the cake for me is that I get to keep and use the S9 alongside it as a sidekick. I shall call them Batman & Robin.
