  1. ​Different horses, different courses. I've had the "priviledge" to edit some music videos here in Finland and I've noticed a funny trend. If it's shot on the GH4, it will most likely look like crap. If it's shot even on an old 5dmarkII, it will most likely look pretty nice. Funny.

    ​Funny as I own GH4 and 5D2 and I don't find 5D2 video that good at all.. too damn soft.  I prefer Blackmagic and Red footage much more

  2. Might get one when the price drop. Sony cam (except A7s) tend to overheat before their record limit so that a big no no for me.

    30 min limit will have to wait for the actual product I guess? the only info I see about record limit is the 30min limit for 4k photo mode

     

    Is it me or the low light seems better than GH4 from that promo video?  (they actually shoot at night unlike previous promo)

  3. I dunno why he have to write so many other stuff when a simple 10 stop dr when not using slog2 would do.

     

    A7s for me is also wow night camera too lol, for gun and run NX1 is my cam, 4K and 120p with full working video AF (daytime) means I just point and shoot most of the time.. on a gimbal lol, colour is nice straight out of the camera and subject is in focus, 4K means I can crop in post since you can't zoom on a gimbal. Man I am becoming lazy lol.

  4. Yeah, if you dont need them now you can always wait, while for those who do either one of them can do the job, and by the time 32bit comes out you already master the gimbal compare to those who still wait, and you gonna beat them since your brain and body knows how to "fly" those well, and you will know which pid works and what not.

     

    This one is done on Nebula 4000 with GH4 + Olympus 12 2.0, 25 1.8, 45 1.8, Sigma 60 2.8,  7-14 4.0, Nokton 25 0.95 and GH2 Samyang 7.5 3.5 on monopod

     

  5. I am waiting for DJI to release M43 camera module for Inspire 1, the ability to have total control all on pre-built package is what it set apart from the rest. The drones to fly all those camera still cost a lot of money and time, but no doubt they will come down in price eventually though.

  6. I prefer desktops (customized hack mac water cooled oc'ed), really fast and pretty quiet unlike whiny lappies, I can often rendering and play game (like borderland 2) at same time

     

    sorry don't have 1dc so no idea how it will perform, but it handle RED 4K RAW pretty well.

  7. I think some people fall in to category of going arms race where they spend a lot more than they can ever earned, unless either you are well known which you get a lot of jobs or have rich daddy that support you (I've seen some parent who will do anything to get their kids into the business) its hard to earn a living while constant upgrading at same time, let alone buy a house/form family/have kids which require a lot of money.

  8. I used to be GAS adventurer, until I got shoot arrow in the knee.

     

    Well the I work more I find that I am more of shooter than director, and gears is more than adequate atm. My friend is a lot more talented than me when it comes to shooting, his stuff was shown on many film festival, and he can think a lot of idea for shooting that I didn't think of, so while he was filming them on paltry 550D/60D still kick some people's work with more expensive gears (me included lol), but he did upgrade to GH4 at end with anamorphic lens to step up even further.

  9. I bet all this tech will be on 1DC MK II instead.  5D IV will be still first camera for photographers like 7D II. Why? Because they are Canon, and they can milk it as long as they can, hey it's business not a charity.

  10. Yeah Samsung make it inconvenient if you use third party glass, for example, remote shooting over wifi wont work at all if you have non Samsung lens attached.  Panasonic cam is so much easier to work with.

  11. Funny I ditched A7/5D2 for NX1/GH4 for wedding.. and don't miss the FF look, or "worse" low light performance, slowmo and aerial is the buzz lol.

    For most client they don't really care about the stuff at we care. they just want good edited video with the right mood/atmosphere that show off their day.

     

    For commercials they are much more picky, you can rent EPIC/FS7/C300 on the corner.

  12. I uses both, for fast turnaround project or co-op with other people GH4 is the way to go, especially if you have same day edits for wedding, no time for transcoding!  NX1 I mainly use it for gimbal  (AF is awesome!)

    GH4 can look cinematic if you know how to shoot and colour grade  (same for other DSLR type camera including NX1)

     

    Like this one is shot on GH4.. nothing docu look at all!
