And that's when you use two same cameras. I shot with two rented FS7 cameras last week for an interview. If I had an FS7 and an RX100, that RX100 would've had a too big look difference. A6300 would've been on the edge too (color wise, we were slogging the shit out of the fs7)

I've shot with Canon 5d h264, raw, sony rx10ii, sony a7s (mark i and ii) and the sony a7rII in the same shoot. Also with the canon 5d mk iv that intercut with a dji osmo and the older 5d mark iii. You make it sound like you can only shoot with Sony or Canon cameras together. That's not true.

People still shoot Alexa's as A and B-cameras in films.

So first you bash the XC10 (that's fine) but then you say that the RX10iii is great. What the... The RX10ii is shit (except for the slowmo's) and the RX10iii is basically the same camera with a different lens and no ND's. So it's even worse really.

That doesn't sound practical at all, but have fun with that haha!

I don't buy your reasons. People have shot with RAW enabled cameras for years and don't get me even started with 35mm film (somehow they could shoot long improvised takes with 35mm too, weird). Blaming the DP on the post-workflow...well I guess yeah. You need to get out of the low-budget rut where people will shit on you no matter what. If you can't DP on a Red, BM with RAW, Alexa (with arriraw) or the C200 because your client will blow up then you are definitely doing something wrong.

So if the gh5 beats the c200 then it will also beat... Well every single camera out there. True holy grail.

So... You have one client? And no one you shoot for has ever asked for REDraw?

And you shouldn't. But... but but but. If you newer go beyond the "I'm shooting for fun", you will miss out a lot of learning opportunities, working with other people, forcing yourself to see other perspectives. Without goals, with just "shooting for fun", a lot of people will stay there. And they will be shooting for fun 10 years later. Not that there's anything wrong with that (there isn't) but sometimes people don't see the possibilities from the trees.

Did you just claim that the FS5 is a better camera? The FS5 is shiiiiite.

I had a transcend card fail and all of my Lexar cards still work. Don't take out the card when the camera writes on it, jesus... p.s what's the name of this local store?

Just some weird shots. I have begun to mix cameras more. H264, raw, rx10ii and 5dIII mixed together, doesn't matter. Sorry for the language.

Because of the 30p crop, this most likely has the same rolling shutter in video as the a6300/6500. It seems they took the RX10 models with their "stacked sensor" advantages and just smacked them into an a7 body. 1/32000 shutter? Same as in rx10 ii.

That depends on a couple of factors. Are you increasing the voltage how much? And is the chip stable at the speeds you are pushing it? A lot of the cheaper CPU's (and GPU's) are deliberately clocked lower at the factory. The actual chips inside are usually identical to higher clocked models. A 2.8ghz model overclocked to 3.5ghz model is usually the same as buying a 3.5ghz model in the first place. There are binning differences but all else being equal, that's just how it goes. Sometimes manufacturers fuse off parts of a chip to sell for cheaper but sometimes that overclocked model is exactly the same as something that is bought from the factory as is. I've been running an oc'd 4ghz 5960x for a couple of years. Works great, renders well too. Risk of CPU or motherboard failure? Just don't push the limits too much, don't OC the memory (it's usually quite pointless) and be smart.

Here's a radical suggestion: Get a fullframe camera. Just save up for a used A7s or 5dmarkIII/iv. That extra look will give you the boost you need to really up your game instead of sidegrades (a bit more resolution, who cares?). That does entail more work in learning a new camera, lenses and how to focus with them. But a fullframe will reward you more than pixel peeping 1:1. Your doing weddings, they need to be BEAUTIFUL right? Especially portrait shots of people (as the sony colors can be a huge pain, that's why the canon is there as a suggestion).

Is anyone actually buying a GH5 to use on A BUDGET (a real budget, not music videos) shoot? I'd expect normal clients (i.e people that actually pay) to run away from you haha. I have no budget in my own short films usually so a lot of stuff has to be creatively done. Also sometimes even for paying clients it works, we shot a music video for an artist (it was paid but not much) which featured two A7s shots done at 25,600 at moonlight (and an iphone). Those are the exceptions to the norm. But still, minimizing the size of lights you carry is quite significant in no-budget shoots. If I'd take out all the "less than 1600 ISO" shots that I've ever done, I'd probably miss A LOT of extremely cool looking things. Though I do live in Finland which is in perpetual darkness.

Well what I've realized is that those content creators go "farther" (or more sideways) in life and the filmmakers get stuck in technical jobs. Content creators become producers, writers directors. Filmmakers with a technical eye become... engineers. They do the nitty gritty that the content creator asks. Even in the "bizz" (not the vlog environment but actual tv-production side where technical skills are really needed) the production value varies A LOT depending on the production. It's not like everyone working for telly/cinema is doing hugely creative and/or very high production value things where as vloggers are not. Sometimes I see better production quality in vlogs than on tv. If you guys wanna work "cinema" then the route is really small. High budget commercial ads are for some people "the thing" but even landing those gigs as a director requires a shit ton of creativity as in "I'm gonna type a thousand treatments".

No wonder talking about politics is filled with unverified facts and fake news if even A GODDAMN CAMERA AF can be this confusing.

Upsides - full frame RAW (how many cameras can offer this?) - great look - no moire (the bm 2.5k does some moire occasionally) Downsides - hassle - Though theres only one extra step compared to the BM 2.5k raw and that's the conversion to dng. Usability of the 5d is many times better than the bm 2.5k.

It's after ISO 3200 when it goes digital.

Check that you don't have "scale to frame size" on. Use "set to frame size" instead.

Eh? It's really not that hard. A) Fast and big CF cards and B) station to offload material and back them up. It's like shooting with any RAW camera.

Wrong. It would look actually 100% the same (excluding the resolution difference as you scale). As you can see, there is no difference in "look".

That is temporal noise reduction. The reason that it's more visible in v-log is apparently because the GH5 applies noise reduction as one of the last steps of the image. V-LOG = less contrasty so you will see more of those double lines (in temporal noise reduction there is a cut-off point but that depends on the contrast, as the noise reduction engine sees the double images easier on more contrasty images). Not 100% sure but it seems that's what is happening.

The original so no zoom.
