  1. If video AF is good enough and IBIS is much better I dont mind dumping my A7III to Nikon, at end of the days it just all tools to me. I am still waiting for Canon FF Mirrorless to upgrade my m50.
  2. There is always a middle budget too, we sometimes shot with team of 4-5, not big enough for Alexa but more budget than low budget lol. We always have external sound with it, pre amp from external recorder is so much better and cleaner than build in camera like canon C lines
  3. Ergonomic should be pretty good, I guess that the 24-70 f4 lens?
  4. Did a corporate shoot yesterday, focus peaking and magnify while works but not great, Canon one is much better implemented and magnification show much more detail than Sony which is just enlarged blurry screen. But I use AF most of the time but there are times where you want it fixed (like revealing shot and stuff). The battery life definitely improves a lot, still have 50% battery life left at end of the day, with a7sii I will need at least two batteries.
  5. Well otherwise he wouldn't put this disclaimer up
  6. A7III seem to stretch video a bit, but man that attract swarm of Sony fanboys at comment section
  7. 11.8 stops according to DJI 12.8 for X5S
  8. Finally got a7iii, took over a months wait, the shop said it will be in short supply til Xmas time. so far colour is not my cup of tea, gonna take while to get used to it Also ordered MFT to E mount adapter so I can use Laowa 7.5mm on A7, its my fav UW lens! Much tinier than Laowa 15mm f2 or 9mm f2.8. And also gonna see if olympus 9mm fisheye body lens cap would work it
  9. Agreed, I came here to escape those YouTuber stars... don’t want to see their name mentioned at all!
  10. Latest leak, Mavic 2 Zoom with 2X Optical zoom (24mm-48mm) and Mavic 2 Pro with 1" sensor, with 44mph top speed
  11. Each to their own, I hate to change batteries often or worry about battery management in an all day shoot, or worry about overheating because the body doesn’t disperse enough heat, to me camera is a tool for me to make money ?, I want my tools to work to their full and not like a diva.
  12. It can't move too much since the edge will be blocked by the lens mount, so that why it was limiting how much it can compensate for movement, of course it can move what ever behind the mount but it have to be within certain axis before the light aka image get blocked by the lens mount. Perfect example will be GH5 with Speedbooster XL and Sigma 18-35mm, doing slow movement you don't see vignetting, but any big action stuff you can see dark corners because sensor is moving bigger distance to compensate big movement, but that is over the image circle provided by Sigma lens. Similar thing to Sony's IBIS, the sensor movement distance is limited by that mount, it can't move big distance to compensate for big movement like walking for example.
  13. Look at this photo, how much space can sensor move around without being blocked by the mount?
  14. Actually larger mass should be able to stable much better than smaller mass, look how smooth Ronin is vs tiny Osmo.. no up down walking bounce for starter. I think the small diameter of E-Mount is the key to blame, look at how much space can it move around vs M43 sensor inside their mount (like literally touching the border of the mount for E mount), hence I have a feeling Nikon Z mount will have good advantage here for IBIS. I am waiting to see how Nikons mirrorless will offer, if it have good IBIS and video spec/quality is not too far off I will be ditching my A7III pretty soon!
  15. Pretty good chance there will be 8K for M43 by 2020.. smaller sensor size do have advantage on readout speed and thermal management.
  16. I was looking at 85mm 1.8, but now saw a batis 135mm at not too bad price.. decisions!
  17. Since all my lens are really quiet with AF and fast so when I tried the 50mm FE 1.8 (want to save bucks too) at store it stick out like sore thumb, well i guess we all have different standards. (the Rokinon is too noisy for me as well.)
  18. Same for Olympus 43 system... I guess this is the beginning the end of F mount? Nikon FT-1 works like using native lens on the Nikon 1 7 years ago, so they already have the technology to do that.
  19. Sony FE 50mm 1.8 is POS.. slow AF and loud noise, I think you mistaken for the Zeiss 55mm 1.8 which is slient and fast.. for just 4X the price.
  20. Yeah, consider bigger mass should be more stable than smaller mass you would think ibis should be piece of cake for Sony but noooo. (Gimbal on ronin is much more stable than osmo, but opposite on stabilising on camera sensor? That doesn’t make sense) I think the small diameter of the e-mount actually hurt Sony in the long run.
  21. Man pretty excited! A bunch of my Nikon photoshooter friends will be really excited about this.
  22. Yeah, telephotos lens much smaller, cheaper and lighter on M43 system. ($12K 400mm FOV lens anyone?)
  23. FS5 looks like can be had for $3000ish.. so that only 2x the price. The electronic ND is really helpful. This guy really utilize his FS5 to the best potential But it does come down to what you need and what not.
  24. The voice sounded like male pretend to be female?
