    Lenses

    In: Cameras

    Posted

    Bit the bullet and finally just bought a used Voigtlander Nokton 25mm.  I've really liked renting it in the past and found one at a decent price.  I thought hard about the SLR Magic version, but I keep reading they're hit or miss on QA and I really don't have the patience shipping things back and forth in case I get the bad penny.  At least there's a local Voigtlander dealer I can work with. 

    ​I have that one and the 17.5mm. Really nice lenses. Only downside for me is that I can't use them on my new NX1 which I will recive today :)

    Zoom H5 or H6 best bet on completing audio kit? Wise or stupid?

    But ofcourse you have to power the Art pre, forgot to mention that. I have the lanparte v-mount and battery to power my gear. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lanparte-V-mount-baterry-pinch-HDMI-splitter-Power-Supply-Adapter-V-Lock-DSLR-/370696262997?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_77&hash=item564f381555

     

    I think the art pre can also be powered with 5v battery, but I've never tried that since i have the lanparte v mount

    Sony A7s and the SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-II cards

    Does anyone know if the the brand new Memory Card SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-II will work with the Sony A7s in 1080p HD?…or..will this particular 64GB extreme UHS-ll card only work if using the Sony A7s for 4K  - to an external recorder?

     

    Thanks

    In the Atomos Shogun product description there is only mentioned the ability to use SATA to CFast adapter. I would find it strange if these cards don't work with the A7s, unless there is some defect or bug going on. 

     

    I was told by B & H that the SDXC UHS-II memory cards (which are the newest and most expensive) will NOT work on the A7s.

     

    ​If this is BS, from someone with personal experience I would love to know that. 

     

    I know they will work for the Atomos Shogun for 4K capture. I was just double checking to see if I could in fact, use the SDXC UHS-II cards for internal 1080p HD on the Sony A7s ?

    I don't understand. Are you saying that you know that the Atomos Shogun works with the Sandisk SD cards? How does this add up? There are no sd card slots on the Shogun.

    Signs of Spielberg's predicted "crash and burn" as Lone Ranger bombs

    I went and saw Lone Ranger last night with my girlfriend(only reason I went is that she is a huge Johnny Depp fan).

     

    I didn't hate it. Typical popcorn fest. Some ok humour and action.  But I agree that it fails in its attempt to please everyone, the movie can´t decide whether it wants be dark and serious or funny and strange.  And way to many familiarities to Pirates of the Carabbians like the Butch's possey, almost exactly the same as the dead pirates.

     

    But still, I did not leave the theater disappointed. (Maybe because I expected it to suck big time)

     

    P.S. I love Armie Hammer, I think he is very likeable and love his infectious smile.

    the new 'Man of Steel' film is designed for / aimed at fans of Transformers and Battleship........nuff said!!

    don't forget Zack Snyder made 'Sucker Punch' where they spent all the money on 'girls and guns and explosions'  and forgot to write a script ...

    visually it was very entertaining like watching 4 long pop videos .....but no story - sadly Hollywood is like that now .....

     

     

    Yeah Suckerpunch was just a wankfest graphics showreel.

    I disagree about Sucker Punch not having a screen play. Watch this video from the critic Moviebob, he says it best. : http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/6247-You-Are-Wrong-About-Sucker-Punch-Part-One

     

    Shows you how we often jump to conclusions because of outside appearances, some times we just need a another look :)

    SKIN - First short film to use 5D Mark III Magic Lantern raw, a guest post by Andrew Wonder

    In: Cameras

    I like the short for the most part. Made me uncomfortable, I think that is the artists intention. Very cinematic in many of the shots, but I have to agree about the noise, it is a bit distracting, but that does not make me think that something is wrong with the Mark III, I think it is a question of lighting for camera and maybe in some of the shots in "skin" could have been less noisy with more lighting and less iso.

     

    My two cents. Bottom line....I liked it :)
