  1. But then he would be without a second / back up body. I reckon any of D750 / D7500 / D500 could be a smart and sensible move for someone in your shoes.
  2. Am still waiting on pricing... nothing yet about the LF, I guess it will be their most expensive one yet!
  3. I saw a demo once of two people talking into a mic, both talking over on top of each other, but the computer managed to process it out into two separate signals! :-o Zoom has a firmware update for the F8/F4 to support ambisonic decoding of the Sennheiser Ambeo

    Well then I hope it is a Nikon D5200! ;-) (another camera I also own....)

    Oh I dunno.... I find Keynesian and Marxian economics to be quite funny indeed! ha

    NX2 rumors

    Hope it works for the NX300! haha
  7. I also don't mind spam either when it is complementing me ;-)
  8. I wouldn't. I feel it is nuts to spend $3.5K on a DSLR/mirrorless camera to only use for video, only if I did a decent split of stills/video would I get the D850
  9. @mukeiei you are clearly a spammer! One of the mods should take care of you.... I haven't ever used a NTG3 myself
  10. It absolutely boggles my mind that people don't even just send out a mass email to share the final product. (or in this day and age of social media, bulk tag everyone in it when the film is shared) After all you make your film to be seen (what is the point in making it if no one sees it?!), and the easiest audience to get viewing it (& hopefully then share it themselves) is those who were involved in it! Plus filmmaking is a team effort, thus networking is so important, and an email to show the final result is an easy way to stay in touch with people and remind them you still exist. And even if it is just a lowly PA you're keeping in the loop, you never know what else they're doing or where they might be in five years time.
  11. It was my first ever shoulder mount, years ago, I still have it, and it still very occasionally gets usage when it is the right tool for the shoot.
  12. Almost never do that for vlogs Darn :-(
  13. Depends on what type of happy ending you mean? But yeah, have a CS1, and a CS3e now! :-D (plus many many more....)
  14. I am sure that was true of the GH2 as well! I bet at the low end there are some shoots which would have tried to stretch to an Arri Alexa, but instead now can go for an URSA Mini instead
  15. Recently worked with a director (for a long running children's TV show) who gave a call time of 3pm and also expected to start shooting at 3pm..... errr.... what???
  16. I was getting tempted until I saw that: Sony EXMOR R 1/2.3" CMOS https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1276833-REG/dji_cp_zm_000425_osmo_handheld_gimbal_camera.html Oh well. As I don't see the point really in doing that vs just putting my own cellphone on a gimbal?! Wow. Much wow. Much tempting! I think to complete this, we need someone based in Egypt as well to send all this to first for redistribution.
  17. The beauty of sound vs video is I have less to worry when it comes to storage space :-D But people used the GH1 and GH2 as well..... they're not unheard of?
  18. If you have a small minimal mirrorless camera then I totally agree with kye to use a Gorillapod and/or a monopod. Certainly two of my favorite ultra minimal approaches.
  19. Am reviving this zombie thread to say... I've got a CS1 now! Was at a price I couldn't resist
  20. I feel this is a complement of this camera! Has any new release got quite this response?
  21. Many vloggers use a LOT of punch ins, so higher resolution is very handy for that.
  22. I feel exactly the same way! Any great vlogging cameras needs this. Wish there would be 1" compacts with these simple features. I wouldn't mind that too much. But the G7/G80/G85 are kinda bulky ish, so I wish that say the future GF6 successor (which has has a flip up screen) would simply gain a mic input (and of course it would have 4K! d'oh) Been so many years and still the a5100 hasn't been updated :-( An a5300 (even if it overheats and has short battery life) with a mic input and 4K would be a sweet choice for vlogging with.
  23. You could dip your toe in the water with something even cheaper: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1337213-REG/yi_technology_360_vr_camera.html Has already been quite a popular choice to use the BMMCC as a basis for a 360VR rig, and probably BMD would rather let others take on the risk / R&D of that niche. It doesn't seem to be an area BMD has ever shown an interest in before. Personally I've been hoping a lot for the BMMCC would go on a half price sale like the BMPCC did! Then I'd be seriously tempted to buy up a bunch myself for that purpose.
  24. I'll admit one factor in my purchase decision of a NX300 was its 3D capabilities, but then again I never filmed in 3D...

    But HOW do you do it? Please don't get hit by a bus during the next week and take these secrets to your grave! :-o
