I will visit Berlin next oktober with young students (around 20 years old) for two weeks and I am looking for tips for visiting,

related to camera's, film history, film/clip/documentary making.

Any input is welcome, thanks

Woh, interesting.. and also the presentation I feel so much more connected to than the one from Sony (yesterday) 

I am in.

Love it because it's a interesting story and lovely images.

If your using S-Log in any form the screen dims while recording.

Ah ok, did not try that. Mostly using EOSHD color. Thanks.

Keep in mind that the A7r II dims when recording video, the A7 III does not. This might make it much easier and the punch in might be cleaner.

Are you sure of that? Mine does not

Hello again, more than 1 month later I have to say that I am in the same ballpark with a few new players. I did not pull the trigger for buying the 1DC as mentioned. 2499,- from a respectfull shop with full year warrenty. I was tempted but not shure. One month later to my suprise the shop still has the cam. Yesterday I filmed with a friend  at a club were to had a twenties style party and have to say both the A7s and the canon c100 mk1 did very well. I used the A7s for 50fps for some slomo and the c100 for 'normal' work. Colors of the c100 and also lowlight were that nice that it brought me back to rethinking the 1DC. But with the new sony a7iii as new kid on the block.  Stabilizer, E mount, autofocus, slowmo options, relative low price, combination with my a7s and a7rii. Very interesting.  But the1DC combined with my c100mk1 is also tempting. But can it if I use an external recorder record 1080p 60fps ? ( from down sampled 4k) What recorder would be great regarding battery live, brightscreen, lightweight? 

I am a little ashamed asking again but if you have some good arguments or idea's..thanks 

Is it possible to have the 1DC in 4K (1.3) and not record to the 1DC internally but only to the Ninja in 1080p.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.

It's pretty good, better than 5D3 internally, benefits from Canon LOG too.

In 1.3x 4K mode it does the best 1080p you've ever seen out of the HDMI to recorder. It's just... stunning.

More cinematic than C100.

Could I use a Ninja Blade for that?

Edit: It's a Atomos Ninja 2.

Thanks Andrew, 

Very good thoughts to consider.

What about the HD 1080, I heard it it quite good, should that be a nice match for the C100? 

And occasionally use the 4K and off course the still capacity. (compared to my A7Rii?)

Or is the 1DC than a 'overkill'?

The Nikon is so interesting but regarding my sony's the A7Riii would be a better choice I think.

I don't know, somehow I am tempted by the 'mojo' I suspect from the 1DC but maybe in the light

what has come on the market lately that's partly a fairytale?

Thanks

Is it still interesting?, I can buy it for 2499,- euro @ a respected foto/film shop with 1 year full support.

I recently bought a C100M1 because I was curiuos and I like it.

Colours, handling, ND filters, XLR audi, small files and so on.

After being so entousiastic I came across this 1DC offer and thought about seeing that one as a 'bigger brother'.

(I do own Sony cams: A7Smk1 A7Rii, 2 Rx10's and a RX100IV) 

What do you guys think about this GAS? What would you do?

Or should I look more forward..C200, EVA ..that's a lot of money.

For my studio I need a few cam's (music video registration) that's the place my sony's 'work'

Any input would be fine.

Is someone using these cams in combination?

I think of buying the 1DC and (amongst other use) combine the cams in my recording studio, for filming bands.

Any thoughts?

Yeah... talk to me about the stabilizer?

I can use acceptable clips out of hand with 600mm..

I use the RX10iii and love it for the lens reach (24-600) and quality (zeiss) , stabilizer and auto focus. And it makes a good combination with my A7Rii and A7s. The slow option in 100fps (or 120) in 1080 is supernice. Good luck.

What do you not like about the Sony A7S (classic)?

Andrew, please don't stop. I am visiting for many years already, can't miss it.

Thanks for posting, I like the song very much, but agree with DPC about the colour difference between the shots and that the focus is off at times.

Not impressed at all with the IQ. It seems that the videomic is lacking bass but like cantsin said before, that  could be the problem of the PA. But I doubt that.

For what lenses can you use this?

I got 2 GM1's ..I like them and use them next to my Sony cam's (A7S and A7R2) But now I can sell 1 of the GM1 and for only 250,- extra have a brand-new GX80. Is there anything I will miss in the GM1 compared with the GX80 (except the the GM1 is very small)

Olympus

Excellent job, thanks for doing this and you can expect my 'order' Cheers

I love it, very well done & thanks for posting.  The one thing I did not like was the comment of Mister Dbounce, telling you and us what the rules are...Behh!

I am flying Phantom 3 Advanced (2.7K cam)  for 2 weeks now, the first 1 crashed into the water ( Quality failure) I got a new one and just 3 days ago I made the mistake trying to fly under a little bridge were it lost GPS and I was to unexperienced  to fly in ATTI mode and react real quick. I thought about quitting..but I like it so much that I will try a third time..this time thinking about a Phantom3 Pro..(4K)  it has almost the same camera quality of the Phantom 4 and even the Inspire 1. Now I will take more time to learn how to fly (also without GPS)

If you want to know some more, just ask.

Here is my 'Bridge to far'

I love it, beautiful  shots, editing and color..You make this Sony's shine. Thanks for posting.

I just bought a A7R2 and was thinking about selling my A7S, but I kept it and use them both. It's still a great cam, even for pictures it has mojo. Look @ some A7S video's on Vimeo and You Tube.

I would recommend the classic A7S. 

Thanks Fuzzynormal
