Your wife looks scared :)   I'm not a big fan of the ML Raw, but indeed 50D pushes very good images. Anyway i like the G6 most (but shadows looks a bit too crunchy to me), easy and fast workflow, and very amazing results. What lens did you use?

I dont get the point about complaining for the lack of "artistic" shots. It's a batch of TEST shots, and it's meant to show off the technical aspects of the camera, not the ability of the director. I like em, that's what i need from test shots, you can focus on things like DR, moirè/aliasing, and something like that, without too much eye-candy effects. Pure and simple.

Thanks SuRu, it's a good way to start.   To Hans Punk: I got your point, but Stereo will be my main content, and 2DtoStereo is very different from "native-shooting" 3D, workflow and pipeline wise. Maybe i will start hiring and trying to build up a more consistent budget for the tasks.   Anyway thanks again :)

Hello everybody,   First i would like to thanks this forum and Andrew Reid for the quality of the reviews. It really helped me a lot in learning photography, so i will not thank you enough for this.   Regarding my topic, I'm a Visual Effect Artist starting a career in the industry in London. My main skills are in 3D (stereoscopic) post-production, and I'm establishing a new small studio for this particular tasks.   Our budget is approx 10k-15k $, so i would like to ask to you guys, what do you think it will be the best buy for this kind of range?  We need to buy at least 2 Camera (same type obv) and a Stereo Rig for future jobs. Red Scarlet is way too expensive at the moment, so what's about the new Blackmagic 4k Production Camera? Does 2x 5D MkIII will be a good bet for this kind of work or do we need to focus on something else? The main aspect concercing this choice is the quality of the image. Keep in mind that we need to work on shots in post too, not just grading, but putting in it a variety of digital Visual Effects (mainly with Nuke, Maya, After Effects).   Thanks to all
