IronFilm reacted to lucabutera in Samsung NX Speed Booster
After much work and many sleepless nights, I have almost finished my work and I think I have brought the lens NXL to the point of being sold to the public.
I thought if the test this week will be positive to produce it with Canon EF mount dumb to which you can add a Nikon adapter with iris aperture control.
At this stage it allows to mount all Nikon and Canon lenses, in the future I will continue to work to enable the electronic control of the lenses.

IronFilm reacted to Cinegain in Best Camera for Low Light for 1000€
There are some contradicting reports on the 'hack' that puts PAL systems into NTSC system default with 30p and 60p modes as well as no region 30m limit. That might work...
I also mentioned a site of which I'm not sure, eglobalcentral, that sells imported cameras in the GX85/80 thread. But mainly the site of which I know people have good experiences with... they don't have the GX85, but they do have the G7: http://www.onestop-digital.com/index.php?dispatch=categories.view&category_id=192&sl=en¤cy=USD . Just be aware that depending on the country you need to ship it to, you might have to keep in mind the import charges/custom duties that apply (One Stop Digital policy: 'VAT Free guarantee only applies to orders shipped to Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom and United States').
I guess this weekend I'll figure out the 'hack' and try it on my GX80 and G7, see what's the deal, what works and what does not.

IronFilm reacted to HelsinkiZim in Has anyone seen this... It could quite possibly be the best indie film ever made...
Laugh. But this is what your next movie will look like to the rest of us. But it will be in 4K.

I stumbled across this interesting article and thought I'd share it, something non-gear related for an odd change! ;-)

Enjoyment of trash films linked to high intelligence, study finds:

Birdemic 2 was shot with a Sony FS100 with a kit lens I see (I could tell you to skip forward a couple of minutes to spot the camera's close up... but don't! Is all worth watching):
Ha, jump to 3 minutes in and you see the classic camera operator usage of the mic pointing straight up into the sky! :P lol

IronFilm reacted to sanveer in An adventure into the Panasonic GX85/80 begins - and a look at the Leica Nocticron for Micro Four Thirds
I was actually checking the same thing (whether the PAL to NTSC hack also gets rid of the recording time limit). It appears, that, unfortunately, the 30 min time limit remains:
(Check the answer to the first comment, on his video)
Post Script: I saw another video, that says in the comments, that it Removes the Time Limit. If it really does, then its gr8 (I wonder if the buttons order, for pressing, switching off and switching on the are same?).
And here is the Reddit discussion about the same thing, and they too claim the 30 min time limit is gone:

its a totally different camera to the GH4 which is why I chose it to shoot the movie on - its a totally different sensor in the G7 , alot cleaner in low light and very usable at 800 iso

IronFilm reacted to andy lee in Best Camera for Low Light for 1000€
all the footage I shot for the movie is owned by the film production company , they have released some low res saved for web images to me so I can share them on EOSHD . Film companies dont relase any hi res stuff until after the film is released ,
So look at the lighting grade composition low light levels etc etc but remember these are lo res saved for web pictures you are seeing not UHD 4K uncompressed frame grabs. there is no micoblocking on the actual footage I shot .
I shot most of the movie at 800 iso f2.5 I lit the sets for that stop and ISO , I did shoot some scenes at 640 and 400 maybe 20% of the movie but most was at 800 iso
the G7 is very clean and usable at 800iso PS the entire film is shot at night there are no daylight scenes in the movie

Now all they need to do is make a Cine Zoom lens and they'll have a perfect line-up of manual cine lenses.

IronFilm got a reaction from sandro in Rokinon Cine DS 20mm T1.9 is coming at last!
Yessssssssss! Been eagerly waiting for them to fill in the gap between 16mm and 24mm, as that gap was just too darn big and was rather annoying (even worse if you needed full frame, was a leap from 14mm to 24mm!). Now I just need to save up the US$600ish the lens will cost.

If you want raw & HFR and your budget is around US$13K then look at the KineFinity Terra 5K/6K, you could get two even for that budget!
Or a FS700/FS5 with an Odyssey 7Q+
Probably because until very recently owning an Alexa was prohibitively expensive for the vast majority of owner ops!
But with older secondhand ones showing up, and the Alexa Mini, the situation is changing to make it kinda affordable for some.

Take those listings with a MASSIVE grain of salt, unless you first dig deeper into it.
Often a movie can be listed on there merely because a RED was used to shoot a few 6K VFX plates, but 98% of the rest of the film was shot with Arri Alexas. Or perhaps just a few seconds of aerial shots were done with a RED (which of course they'd now use an Alexa Mini for instead).

If ultra compact size is what attracts you, then check out the even smaller KineFinity Terra 5K/6K or Sony FS5

Does he hack the newer cameras that gets sold on via his site and is that why those don't have the recording limit??
