Shooting internal, compared to Ninja V & BMD Video Assist shows clipping at different levels... but none go full range.. why is this? I thought the HDMI out and internal were both full range when in V-Log? Same exposure / same scene for each clip.. ProRes Internal 5.9k BRAW

Hey Marcio, could have been Andrews own 88mbit hack. I can still download it here from Andrews site: https://www.eoshd.com/gh2-patch-vault/

Is it to maintain consistency across different models of camera? IIRC C-Log is like this, with clipping of their lower-DR cameras reflecting their lower clipping point compared to the higher-DR cameras, which allows the same settings on different models to generate the same exposure in the files and therefore allow compatibility in post.

Massive Leica SL2 upgrade for video with free firmware update to 3.0 was released yesterday. 1. Internal uncropped 10 bit 50/60 FPS with L-Log. (External recording with Atomos is no longer needed to do this) 😲😲😎 2. Preset follow focus for smooth focus pulls 3. Live waveform 4. LUTs preview and other stuff Clever move by Leica to enable 10bit 60p by moving to H.265 encoding and presumably save enough bandwidth to record 10bit. Downside obviously is H.265 is still a delivery codec, not easily editable and not prores from Atomos. But I’ll take log slomo without a bulky external recorder any day over prores for my non professional needs.

Second that, amazing colors. Do you remember what hack you was running in this one, @Andrew Reid? Still have my GH2 here, when I have time to use my cameras again, want to try it again.

The RC was on my short list before I found the dirt cheap Canonet 28. It isn't fully manual like the RC, but it's definitely a fun camera to shoot with. I'll have a look at the Ricoh. Thanks.

I think film is a great exercise from digital photography and I enjoy the slower process and the space between time photo was taken to development and viewing. I own three film cameras. For 135 film I use the Nikon FM2 with 50mm f1.4 lens. I vastly prefer the FM3a metering system but the prices are insane for a 35mm camera so I settled for the FM2. My second two cameras are for 120 film. I have the 6x6 Yashica-Mat 124G TLR camera. Small and light as far as medium format cameras go and a unique square format and a solid, built-in Yashinon f3.5 lens. Third, and my favorite medium format camera currently, is my Mamiya 645 Pro TL. Excellent meter, packed with features, 90s nostalgia design. For me, the perfect balance between size, weight, interchangeability and negative size for landscape photography. Love the 645 format: 2.5x larger than 35mm film, 4:3 aspect ratio, with a few more extra shots per roll (15 shots) for bracketing compared to 6x6 (12 shots) or 6x7 (10 shots). Sekor C 45 & 80mm f/2.8. There is also a 80mm f/1.9 available which I hope to snag. I believe it is one of the fastest medium format lenses made.
