LOL kid, you're delusional. If you seriously think even 1% of 1% of his traffic converts, I suggest you try it yourself. LETS FLATOUT IGNORE THE FACT I CAN BUY THE GUIDES, TELL PAYPAL I WANT MY MONEY BACK AND KEEP THEM. Because it's fucking PayPal and as a seller/merchant/piece of shit you have 0 recourse to being defrauded by your "customers". I averaged not even quite 4ish% for 2016 which blew my fucking mind. (When I started I used to project monthly revenue like: oh shit! If I hit 12 percent, I can retire and hire people to do this for me!) And that's in a crazy good niche with people who WANT to buy products. LMAO @ 100k selling PDFs. Ayyy Andrew would be churning out silos and milking that SEO if money rolling in. Itd be all cinema5d I here: we so poor plox and do this for free...... also he are some camera prices for c300 and fs7!! ;);) -plz-not-noticing-affiliate-tag Thanks for the laugh. PS: Half a point is for like shitty adsense CPM calcs. Just imagine how infinitesimal the number of DIY dslr shooters that are willing to spend money is. ... I'm not shitting on your mythical world where EOSHD is making millions. It's just that this niche (video) is shit and Andrew's call to actions are poorly placed. If he wanted to make bank he'd be writing about handguns for women and raking in like 30% commission on $1200 items.

Unfortunately, I don't think you can adapt Canon or Nikon lenses to the CY mount. If you want a focal reducer for the cine lenses, your best bet is to get a EF to MFT model as that will allow you to use your CY lenses with an adapter, along with Nikon F/G and other mounts. My only issue with EF adapters is that you'll want to get an electronic one that can operate the aperture as virtually all of them do not have a mechanical iris. (I'm not a fan of electronic lenses, they tend to be prohibitively expensive to service so I prefer PL or Nikon F/G. Not that matters with the DS lenses as they're fully manual.)

LOL what? So many contradictions. You rig the bmpcc, a camera that literally fits in a pocket, and then complain about the size. You rig the camera with a third party battery and then complain about the camera when the battery fails. You use a camera that's purpose is 100% to produce raw DNG or ProRes, formats that everyone knows are data heavy, and complain about file size. You think a production camera around the same size as the FS5 is somehow more portable than the bmpcc. Your complaints smack of self inflicted trauma. You picked the wrong camera to shoot with. The gear is fine... you can't blame the camera for your mistakes.

Due for a refresh at NAB. :D I made a post a while back about this: The Pocket was announced April 2013, the Micro was announced April 2015. Wild speculation: the next Pocket or Micro camera is coming April 2017.

I hypothesize it will either: punch an interdimensional hole in the space-time continuum and collapse our universe, or, be totally benign to the camera sensor. Difficult to say for certain.

It's too bad right? In the past having expensive gear like a 1DX and macOS basically meant you were a filmmaker. Now that the tech is a commodity, a passionate 6 year old can have more YouTube views on a single upload than that filmmaker will ever have.

Egads. This is a great video to show why EIS is terrible for movement. You've got motion blur galore (from excessive camera shake) and yet the software has aggressively locked off the frame. It looks completely unnatural and the human brain can pick it out without any knowledge of why it looks "wrong". You should read up on some technical papers on how OIS works. The TLDR implementation of most manufacturers is that it offers 1-2° of correction, which means you have to keep the lenses pointed in the same angle while capturing video. Even excessive handshake will cause the OIS to hunt and create that ping-pong effect you see from most people who complain about OIS not working. This shit ain't magic. At the end of the day it's using data from a gyro and some code to predict what should be happening. Plop a clueless human into the equation and you end up with...

People who can't adapt are dinosaurs. Your skills should be platform agnostic. I still remember using iMovie on a Bondi Blue Mac. Anyone remember lusting over the XL-1s? <3 MiniDV and so many CCDs! Now I couldn't give a shit if I'm using FinalCut, have a rig with RAID SSD scratch discs, or use MS Paint to quickly build a matte for tracking. Fuck it, I'll cut a video on my phone.

Can also be mounted as a filter on the front of a lens. Keep in mind if you use a fillament to create flares, bokeh will have lines.

Not to be rude or detract from the conversation, but I never noticed the "character" or colors change when they went Sony. Shooting on Leica glass for Youtube is just as nonsensical imho. Compression kills whatever IQ advantage you may get.

It's simply a matter of time before Canon, Sony, Panasonic, as we know them today, will cease to exist. Will take less than a decade, guaranteed. Market for cameras will become extremely niche and majority of consumers will have needs met by next gen smartphones with better optics and sensors. And that's just the tip of the iceberg as changes go. We're living in the twilight of captilism. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera. Bonus points for them being Aussies too.

Jimmy pls, the average viewer actually ONLY cares about DoF, dynamic range and how heavy the rig was.

Haha, ok dude. You want everything and the kitchen sink for no money. Good luck with that! Edit: can we see your work? Are you delivering to theaters or perhaps IMAX screens?

I don't get it. If you want good IQ and reliable AF, Canon has the 1DXII and C100. What's the problem with those cameras?

Really? Motion module is so fucking loud. I ended up dumping my copy on a docu shooter who literally begged me to take it back, I think near the end he was willing to pay me almost $500 to take back the plus+motion+target combo. Have you tried your slider on sticks? After a few months the timing belt fucks up and there's this were rattle at center when travelling. And the target head has so much play and backlash, it visibly wobbles at focal lengths greater than 35mm.

Sorry to be shitty but that's not a lot of views. I did over 1.2 million this year with just 6 videos. (I'm not counting the views my channel accumulated over the last 12 months from videos that were released prior to 2016.) No ad monetization, made a little under 40k USD. Didn't spend a single cent on hosting costs. I have garbage SERP on Google. All my traffic comes internally. SEO-wise, all I did, besides make awesome content I know will convert, was to ad subtitles so my videos ranked faster. Anyway, long story short: YouTube is awesome, yes there are spammers, keep your head down, produce great videos AND (most importantly) target a segment you know spends money and is low competition. That said, sorry for your troubles this year. Getting bogus DMCA claims is awful.

My wallet is ready!

Got a link to share? I'm always curious to see Canon's C-line produce cinematic pictures.

Only worth it if you need 4K60. Otherwise an insane waste of money, need new: cards CFAST, glass STM, batteries. Not to be a shithead, but we all know the gear doesn't do anything. Production value is all: sets, lighting, camera moves and gimmicks. Too bad Blackmagic can't fucking ship a solid product yet. I bet the UM4.6K is almost the perfect cam for you.

www.jukedeck.com Pretty wild stuff.

Just purchased a few Aputure LS1S panels. I'm fairly happy with the price-quality ratio but have about a week to decide if I want to keep them. Are there any alternarives you would recommend using?

You made a thread about the Inspire 2 drone. The X5S isn't specific to the Inspire 2. https://m.dji.com/product/zenmuse-x5s?site=brandsite&from=buy_now_bottom Looks like the camera will be available to purchase separately. Might me compatible with the original Osmo. So not just for drone shooting.
