Too many factors to consider..... is $100k just the camera budget? :-P haha Or the total film budget? What portion is for camera? Could be anything from a couple of Blackmagic Micro Cinema Cameras (excellent choice!) to a Kinefinity Terra 5K (great choice!) to an Arri Alexa Mini?? (fantastic choice!)

IIRC it has the standard 30 minute limit?

You already have three really really great cameras, don't waste money and mental energy on bothering with anything else for low budget wedding shoots. Just use it!

Remember most of us won't be filming in 4K for 4K deliveries, but there is benefits for 4K capture for a 1080 delivery (you can crop / zoom / pan around).

Holy caramba, check out the price on my dream (semi affordable) DSLR: http://www.ebay.com/itm/322237187093 Had quite a price drop lately! Hopefully it means a D750 mk2 with 4K is just around the corner

"Easy"?! Depends lot on the person, for some a UM46 would be a poor decision and "easily" any one of Sony FS5 / FS7 mk1 / FS7 mk2 / Canon C300 mk2 (almost kinda fits in the price range) / RED Raven / Kinefinity Terra would be a way superior chose of a camera for that person's particular circumstances.

If you're not going to use an external recorder, and you don't need 96fps, then 95% likely that the best choice for you is a G85

Rapid fire response off the top of my head just because it is fun: I'm only considering large sensor ILC here, thus I'm ignoring quite large markets and notable cameras such as GoPro or a Sony PXW-X70 or Panasonic FZ1000 or Panasonic LX100, which are all great cameras themselves and worth considering for many people. And now onto the answers: • Up to $500 Panasonic G7 • $500 - $1000 Panasonic G80 or BMPCC • $1000 - $1500 Sony a6500 or Nikon D500 or Nikon D750 or BMMCC or secondhand Sony F3 • $1500 - $2000 Hold off and wait for the Panasonic GH5 • $2000 - $3000 Sony a7S mk2 or a7R mk2 or secondhand Sony FS700 • $3000 - $5000 Sony FS5 or Kinefinity Terra 5K or BMD URSA Mini 4.6K • $5000 - $10,000 Sony FS7 mk1 or FS7 mk2 or Kinefinity Terra 6K or secondhand Sony F5 if you're lucky • $10,000 and above... This is a very very broad category as the sky is the limit! Thus it covers anything from a Canon C300 mk2 to Panasonic Varicam LT to an Arri Alexa Mini to a Sony F65, and lots more between those listed, and lots more both above and below!

That chart you made is quite a damning commentary about the direction cameras are going.

Indeed, VK is the only person who did the actual hacking and he hasn't done anything recently in a very very long time. Yup, certainly no chance we'll be seeing another hacked Panasonic camera any time soon. (and yup, I saw that too about him advising a person not to get a GH1 or GH2.... kinda odd, yes the G6/G7 is so so much better! And they're dirt cheap now. But for some people even a GH1 can be a stretch.... )

Yeah this is the #1 reason I wish that hacks for Panasonic cameras still existed, as I'd love to turn them into unlocked world cameras which can switch from PAL to NTSC and back again!

Yeah. I really deeply hope all those people predicting Trump will be a horribly bad President will turn out to be horribly wrong with their predictions! But I'm not holding my breath.

This is what the Trump presidency will mean for future cameras: https://fstoppers.com/originals/five-photography-predictions-which-could-come-true-now-donald-trump-elected-153075 Probably, I expect Trump will not serve out the full 4yrs of his term. Mike Pence will be the next President of the USA. Very true, but also Israel is an extremely extremely *tiny* country, a mere small spec on the map. USA would need a massively larger wall.

I'd use the RX10 for only the telephoto / close up shots, as at 200mm f2.8 you should have quite nice shallow DoF

If you're shooting APS-C (or smaller) sensor, then you really should go with an APS-C UWA lens (such as the legendary Tokina 11-16mm f2.8, or its 11-20mm update) if you want any chance at getting good bang for your buck.

The reason why it is not included could just be as simple as a) it is an old OS & b) BMD is a very small company and doing testing for every possible software/hardware combo takes time and is expensive

I'm very tempted by these: http://www.newsshooter.com/2016/05/10/nab-2016-spot-lights-on-a-budget-aputure-launch-ls-c20-led-mini-fresnel-for-199-us/ I think these are what I'll order next for my lighting kit, once my next few audio purchases are sorted out.

Only three times more expensive per light?? Holy crap what a bargain! (still)

I'd say the handle is so dirt cheap extra, why not get it?!

Is only saving 12% :-/

For those looking at an alternative to the Zoom F8, I noticed that B&H has a "New Arrival", refurbished Rolland R-88 units selling at nearly half their launch price (I guess Zoom is providing some serious pricing pressure! They might even be new units, and only "refurbished" in name only?!):https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1286630-REG/roland_r_88b_r_88_8_channel_recorder_and.html

Dedolights are normally way way more expensive than redheads, so if they're the same price and you can't make up your mind.... then it actually is a no brainer, get the dedolights every single fvcking time!!! :-D

How did you get that?
