OzNimbus got a reaction from filmmakereu in Sirui anamorphic
Shooting on the 50mm 1.6 on an S1H open Gate 6k as per Tito's suggestion... this lens is GREAT. Even for "talking head" stuff.

OzNimbus got a reaction from Andrew Reid in EOSHD is back, and a Merry Christmas from me
Welcome back, Andrew! Been a fan of this blog since 2012! Keep up the great work!

OzNimbus reacted to TheBoogieKnight in Canon EOS R5 overheated in my fridge! After just 60 JPEGs! (4 °C ambient)
Same and I'm gutted to say that as I had such high hopes for this one as my perfect hybrid. A7S III it is I guess. Even Thor's hammer couldn't inflict this level of cripplement.

OzNimbus got a reaction from webrunner5 in Will the Sony A7S III have a 48 / 12 megapixel Quad Bayer Exmor RS sensor?
The correct answer is: who cares? The only thing I want to know is: will it have a flip around screeen? I need to get content out the door as quickly as possible, and the Sony screens with the exception of the A6400 are a stumbling block that just slows down the entire operation.
i dicked around with the a7s for the first 3 years of my show, then switched to the GH5. ...a far more practical camera for YouTube. Would love to shoot on Sony again, but not if it’s going to be a pain in the ass!

OzNimbus got a reaction from Juank in Photokina 2018 Part 1: Panasonic S1 and S1R full frame 4K/60p and Fujifilm GFX 100MP 4K Medium Format. WOW!
No articulating screen? PASS!
Specs are meaningless if the body isn't practical. I've had enough of dicking around with "solutions" that just add complexity. If I can't flip the screen around the camera is useless.
I do over a million views a month on Youtube and need to get shit done.

OzNimbus got a reaction from Shield3 in Photokina 2018 Part 1: Panasonic S1 and S1R full frame 4K/60p and Fujifilm GFX 100MP 4K Medium Format. WOW!
Static shots, yes. But still have to get the camera into tight spots in the studio around drummers and whatnot. A monitor needs cabling & power. That's extra work.
Dealt with a Sony A7s for three years and various "solutions." ..all of which required extra work. Got a GH5 last year & wondered how the hell I managed without it. Mainly because of the flip out screen!
Never switching back to a non-flipping screen, I don't care what the specs say. Practicality trumps specs.

OzNimbus got a reaction from austinchimp in How to get GREAT AUDIO in your videos
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum.
I do a Youtube show that generates roughly 1 million views a month on audio production & one of the questions that keeps coming up is, "how the hell do you get your voice to sound so good?"
Here's my approach:

OzNimbus got a reaction from IronFilm in Sony a6300 4k
Well, this is a pleasant surprise! I do a YouTube show that averages 800,000 - 1.5 million views a month, and shoot roughly 3 episodes a week, all on the subject of music production. The A7s has been my go to camera over the last 16 months. "Autumn leaves" mode gives great color & skin tones right out of the box with minimal dicking around. I simply can't afford to waste time grading. (more power to you guys who are great at it) I've been looking for a B-camera for the A7s for the last little while, and the A7rii was looking like a serious (but damn expensive) contender. The Blackmagic Micro even looked pretty good too, although I'm none to impressed with vaporware. But the a6300 is a total game changer! I really need a multi camera setup, and for this price, I might just buy two!

OzNimbus reacted to Gregormannschaft in Investigating Cine and SLOG on A7s
Found this on dvxuser and thought it was really interesting. Tells a lot of us what we kind already know but in a lot more depth.
Article: http://www.inventome.com/Blog/2015/8/a7exposure/Sony-A7s---how-to-expose---cine-or-log?
dvxuser: http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?339113-A7s-detailed-breakdown-of-the-gamma-curves-slog-or-cine
Basically, SLOG2 is mostly great but overexposing correctly and bringing it down in post but will generally crush the blacks.
Cine 1 is great for when you want to retain detail in the highlights.
Cine 4 is when you'd like to keep detail in the shadows.
I'm a big fan of Cine 1 for bright outdoor conditions so this makes sense to me, I know a lot of people are also Cine 4 fans. But recently I've been using SLOG2 more and more and the general aesthetics are beautiful.

OzNimbus reacted to Andrew Reid in SLR Magic Rangefinder footage - kiss goodbye to focus breathing / Kowa anamorphic goes single focus
It fits over anything provided you have the means to attach it. No idea what the thread is on those. You will probably have to clamp it like I did with the Kowa. It's no fuss.
