  1. C100mk2: 60fps FHD C300mk1: SDI, genlock, timecode, better codec, cheaper (? arguably, or at least easier to find secondhand), and more. Seems like an easy choice! But here is an even easier choice: C300mk1 vs Sony PMW-F3 F3 all the way! Here is a trickier choice: Sony F3 vs Sony FS700 FS700 gains some notable advantages (super slow motion, and 4K external), but also has some disadvantages, plus is significantly more expensive (but still easily cheaper than a C300mk1!). For the 4K raw obsessed, but who don't care about having a very "quirky" (read: flawed) camera: RED ONE MX or URSA Mini 4K, both similar (or maybe cheaper! If lucky) prices as a C300mk1 And I'll finish off this post with one last candidate, which is an oddball wild card suggestion: the JVC LS300! 4K internal, a tonne of fancy features such as streaming, a very versatile mirrorless mount, extremely affordable, but it is a JVC which no one knows.
  2. Meh, I was writing up a long response..... but then thought, nah! Not going to bother. But there is no way to delete posts in this forum :-/
  3. Just get rid of them the Canadian way:
  4. Yet another reason to worship at the House of Nikon! ;-) Long may our Nikkor Overlords Rule. Maybe because the D850 is secretly a small medium format camera? :-P
  5. An extra 4MP means little, they could have just stuck with the sensor and seen how they could have otherwise improved the camera.
  6. Bit depth and DR are two different things. I don't see why you expect one *must* change just because the other changes. (yes, they might, but doesn't mean they're always connected)
  7. Only non-Canikon in the top 10 is: a Sony P&S (at #2) + a Kodak P&S + a knock off accessories kit for GoPro (ha, not even a camera! Seriously, it doesn't include the GoPro itself) a6000 and a7Rmk3 are the only mirrorless in the top 20. Wonder if this is ranked by volume of sales or value of sales? Guessing by volume. https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Electronics-Mirrorless-Cameras/zgbs/electronics/3109924011/ Hmmm... a5100 is #4! :-o (& a6000 is #1) Impressive for such old cameras. Darn pity they never updated the a5100! (I just wanted a mic input on mine.... ) A better comparison for the Canon M10 would instead be the cheaper Sony a5100 (which like the a6000 is also a 4 year old camera :-/ ).
  8. To me it was obvious what ARRI's #1 focus of their demo reel for their new camera: skin tones.
  9. Agreed, neither the EVA1 or a DVX200 is an "AF200" :-(
  10. Or even quadruple! ha Knowing RED, the sky is the limit. Not on price. Which was at the core of the BMPCC's popularity. This I would like to see. Also I would like to just simply see a stand alone compact point and shoot with a 1" sensor and a prime lens like the CM1 is. Or like a RX100, but without the zoom, so it is even smaller, cheaper, and more robust.
  11. In between those two you should have put: 1.5 We're getting yet another new smartphone with an "amazing" new teeny sensor in it! Oh wow! Probably is the mostly likely option after "nothing" as to what Samsung means (if anything). GH4 to GH5 was a bigger leap than the GH1 to GH2 or the GH2 to GH3
  12. I missed out on a cracking good deal tonight because I paused too long to think about it :-( Got the email notification but rather than buying it immediately, I waited until I got home because I was busy working right then. A Sanken CUB-01 for only US$250! :-o https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sanken-CUB-01-Boundary-Microphone-TA5-For-Lectrosonics-CUB-01-PT-GY-Film-Sound/183050552610
  13. Who is to say it is a one off? The "DVX300" might have it, who knows if another stills camera might use it (such as the GH6S? Not unusual to reuse a sensor across generations), or maybe a MFT camcorder below the EVA1 but above the GH5S. Lots of way they might be able to use the sensor again!
  14. Not anywhere near as skeptical as you I'd say! ;-) And much more curious. But with now my focus instead on sound for the last few years, I highly doubt I'll be making a big camera purchase any time soon. B&H doesn't seem Zaxcom or Sonosax.... must not be any good?
  15. Errr... it wasn't like they finished the GH5 and *THEN* started on the GH5S, rather it was started waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before
  16. It just seems strange you'd take Philip Bloom at face value when he makes a statement about say the GH5S, but you won't if he says the same about the Terra 4K Very unequal! He is still the same person.
  17. Maybe another NLE will allow you to use any frame rate at all that you enter Also, bring this up on their own BMD product forums as they do monitor this. Might get lucky next firmware update
  18. Check out the NOISE on the fan with this light: But then again it is a FIVE HUNDRED WATT LED light!! :-o Heh, you can buy a 100W LED chip for only five bucks: https://www.ebay.com/itm/161473769064 But has a horrifying CRI of 72! :-o However, kinda tempting. There are better ones: https://store.yujiintl.com/collections/frontpage/products/bc-series-cob-400hs
  19. So you're saying only gigantic companies get the benefit of the doubt? And the smaller ones get looked down at because.... they're small?
  20. Oh hey they have a V mount version as well: https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-led100d-mkii-plus-daylight-balanced-led-studio-light-with-v-mount-battery-plate/ Pity the price pushes me just over the GST threshold for importing Oh come on! They list Australia but not NZ Damn you essentialphoto.co.uk
  21. Nice! Her older one by the other guy basically had only three shots in it: 1) stairs (which I kinda liked the look of, but waaaay overused! As they did't have much else to do) 2) outside by the car 3) the black backdrop (the worst of the three)
  22. Jelly! Because... why not? Because it needed more cats in it? This I want to see. Sure to be an internet hit! Because it has cats in it.
