ok i have found, i get confused with Function FN settings, i found the rear dial there and i thought it was there to configure..and it was not..but i don'tunderstand then how this relate to the proper settings which is in COMMAND DIAL

and the rear dial, i go to Function FN setting, i go through the various Fx, and i reach R DIAL. Is set now on CUSTOM SETTINGS, if i want to set it to SS, can't find the SS item.. SOrry it is few month i don't use it and it is like i never use t before

hello can't remember anymore how to setup the front dial to manage the aperture. . I go in the command/dial setup, and COMMAND dial SETTINS, i set F..but don't work..

you right i write wrong i meant not new as it s about a couple of year if i remember well...for sure not the latest. And yes...based on your count i can say "rarely" 🙂

that's true, though xt4 is not anymore the latest. With xt3 i have shot 6 project in 2 years..more than what i was thinking when i wrote "rarely" 🙂 but i feel it as not used a lot. The wish for XT4 is the wish for IBIS...i was thinking of it since almost 10 years ago , when i had my first camera, and i use to dreram about stabilizer and a very good AF...Now i could still sell xt3 at a good price (included smallrig cage and a couple of extra battery) and if i found a good price for a used xt4 i might make the upgrade with no so much money. I would not do it for 400 euro..not at all. For 200 it can be reasonable. That said, honestly i have realized, by doing it, that most of the time i like the camera doing it s natural shaking rather than having an innatural stabilization. I would like the stabilizer only to simulate the "Camera tracking" (i am not sure that is the correct word in english)

that's true!the point is how much more i should spend..for a little monmey why not, otherwise you are absolutely right

i see...about the rigging, i always try to ave less rig as possible, don't say none, but minimal, let's say a smallrig cage, an external mic and perhaps a monitor. In these conditions blackmagic and ezcam should be almost the same isnt'it?

Yes quality of image for what i have seen i very very nice (though i don't know how much post production was on it, when coming to color) and it is what i am actracted at most. don't understand if prores is only via hdmi or if, in any case, the internal code is good for a smooth edit. The downside is what you said, it is not a quick camera, and this could stop me, because often use it in a kind of run and gun. Perhaps for this better black magic?i read it is the same sensor, so the quality should be the same? Do i have to buy battery also?does it have internal mic?

Hello, while i was searching for a XT4 to possibly replae my XT3 i came across some description of ezcam. Of course i knew it before, but i did not consider because its too basic setup, meaning that i would need a monitor at least and i don't know what else. Going deeper in to some articles i am realizang that it must be a very good quality camera. I have seen a sample video and it seems amazing. I am getting really interested at it, but i would like to have opinion from real users, first of all about the minimum setup needed. For my budget i think i would not go beyong the M4. Wait for your opinion, i was really excited after watching a video

i have 18 55 and 55 200 both with ois..when i think at ibis i think on walking with the camera and simulating the "trolley" movemnt..don t know if it is the correct word in english..it is a literal translation The autofocus, i say again could be a real game change

Forget to say... the biggest improvment i think i would need is the Autofocus, XT3 is not bad at all, but i think there are also much better one..then the ibis, but only if it is a real good one

I have always the need to be able to shot in run and gun mode. That means, for me, vvery good autofocus, and perhaps IBIS..but for this i can't tell for sure. I never had an IBIS, i had a panasonic GH3 before and i could not wait for the next camera to have IBIS..but i discover XT3, which did not have. I like he camera a lot and i did take it anyway..if i use gh3 without IBIS i could do the same with XT3, i thought. Actually i use it anyway. Ibis is still appealing but don't know how really is good for video. I read many opinion that for video ibis on xt4 is not that good, producing unnatural movement. I choose XT3 because of quality of image first, and because it have good specs talking about recording options. Also for autofocus, because when i bought it it as much improvemente compared to Gh3. That said i think that an evaluation could roughly be done because of the big differences in prices and because the 2 camera are not 2 different world. For example 400 euro woth for the xt4 ibis, is it so good or much better to get a gimbal if i really need ibis? That's what seems to me, those 400 euro are not a small amount, for me it is quite big amount. Is the xt4 a big upgrade?It can be nice to know what are your opinion about also, not completellyrelated to me,

400 euro to add seems a bit to much...250-300 i would do it probably

Hello, need your suggestions. I have a XT3, rarely used, so in very good conditions and i am thinking to sell it to buy an XT4. This will cost me 400 euro to add, as i can sell mine at 900 and buy a XT4 for 1300. The reason for the change will be in order 1) Ibis 2) Articulating screen (though i am getting used to the xt3 one) 3) longer battery (though i have 2 extra battery with my xt3). I also have a smallrig cage for the XT3 and i would give it with the camera. Do you think is a good idea? For what i know there are no other differences between the 2 camera and perhaps what is more important would be the IBIS. I use the camera for video 90%...but for what i have read the ibisi is not that good in video. Acutally what i would really like to improve is the autofocus, but i don't see in that price range better possibilities..even in other brand. Am i wrong? Please give me your opinin, if the upgrade worth 400 euro. Thank you

rode go seems more a reasonable, though the 2 version is gonna be higher in price while the first versione can be found second hand also. Am i wrong or the 2 is not out yet?

well i understand what you say, that said sometimes there are situation where a compromise is required. That means, trying to get the best you can with your possibility, and this is what i was aiming when writing this post. I am sure there are compromise solutions in addition to best and horrible ones 🙂

why the 3 is so unreliable?

well...if i could do 1 and 2 i would not be here asking these... 🙂

i have an idea I have got a tascam dr05, which has one of the 2 external mic broken, actually i completelly take it off the device I could use teh tascam as recorder connecting to it a cabled lavallier? the tascam is not that big, so the person could haeve it quite easily somewhere...

if i use a cabled one and a need to stay away from speaker..how do i record the sound?

ok but those are out of my budget.as i stated on first post was looking for some cheaper and acceptable alternatives, that's why i mention synco!

or do you have other suggestion?

ok, i am convinced that itis not worthy, while the other synco, ts seems better, according to Trankilstef

?

it is more expensive than rode this model..how it compares?
