Andrew Long time, anyhow I went to the canon launch in Germany and must say there is a massive jump with this organic grain structure they used seeing the footage was shown on a proper massive cinema display. There is s a new trend in the industry that says there is too much numbers gibberish we only want proper pictures. Now working for a rental co as you know VMI, we have immense problems with the fs100 and external recorders. If you put the numbers together the c300 and a fs100 with either ki pro mini or nano flash will be the same where the post workflow could also become an issue. The price is not a massive issue for rental companies but it is a chunk for individuals and that is where the problem sets in seeing we have invested more money in optics than in cameras. They are both great machines but I would not recommend an fs100 with its dodgy hdmi out ( yes no bnc hdsdi) out with an external recorder.The hdmi is capped at 8bit and bnc is capped at 10bit so who knows what will happen in future firmware updates btu being a more reliable connector I recon the canon wins hands down. The stills from the Bloom looks like square pixels so there has been some post work done on it. I have seen it on a big screen and I can tell you I was blown away. Im sorry to say that in my personal view the frenchman with the black cap images which was commissioned for this launch the out of tunes clip Sara has is not my cup of tea and he had a lot of work done to make it look very digi beta at least it looked like that on the big screen but it is the short films which really stood out and was an eye opener as to what this camera is capable of.
