  1. And make all their lenses obsolete?  I can't see that happening.  It would be nice just to have a multi aspect sensor like the GH2 with no crop for 4k.  That would be a 1.8/1.9 crop and still alow their lenses to be used.   There would still be pleanty of options to entice:  Global shutter, 10 bit all I internal/ raw.

    If GH5 did transition over to a S35 sensor. It would be great if they can do an mft mode where the sensor crops to mft, to utilize mft lenses. Then you'd have use of both systems MFT and S35. Then mft lenses won't become obsolete, cool idea if this happened.

  2. I'm curious about the uncompressed HDMI out 4K. Anyone know if it's 8bit 422 or 10bit 422? I have the Atomos assassin, so this is an awesome combo.

    If low light sensitivity is comparable to the A7S. This can surely be on my to buy list, over a second hand A7S.

    More info and testing please! ?

     

  3. You can get an A7S classic for less then $1500 if you're willing to look.

    yea seen quite a few go for that price now a days 

    A used C100 with DPAF is a good deal these days

    Tempting for sure, but prefer the c100 mkii but that's already a $5K cam

    What lenses do you use? The C100 is a good option and offers a lot of features that compliment the GH4, but no use looking at that if it doesn't take your lenses.

    Also, FF would be a bigger difference from your MFT crop in terms of look, which would give you more flexibility in terms of different aesthetics you can create. 

    I got a set of Nikon Nikkor primes 24, 28, 35, 50, 85. And another set of different vintage lenses ranging from Minolta to Super takumar.

    I had a 5D2 years back, so I'm familiar with the look and feel a FF has vs a MFT.

  4. If you are going to use the Assassin without a doubt then you will not be needing the most important updates of the A7sii which are IBIS and internal 4K, so your best bet is an A7s.  RAW quality is great but I am not fond of the ML/RAW workflow. 

    And is the low light performance between the a7s and a7sii significantly different? Then there's the a7s slog2 vs the a7sii slog2/slog3.

  5. Ahh i missed that part about your BMCC. What are you wanting out of the 3rd camera that your others don't do?

    I want much better low light capabilities, which my GH4/BMCC doesn't have. And the resolutions 4K/2.5K/1080-raw is not so much my concern cause they all look great in that aspect. 

     

  6. The A7Sii doesn't output 10 bit so the Assassin wouldn't be a good combo with it. I would pick up a 2.5K BMCC (MFT) with some accessories.

    I'm aware of that it doesn't do 10-bit, just 8-bit 422 through the hdmi which isn't too bad. Is it worth using it with my assassin, I don't know.

    And I already have a BMCC 2.5K EF, so that's out of the question. And low light is no better than my GH4. 

    And I want a better low light capable camera 

  7. Currently my main setup is the GH4 w/Atomos assassin. No complaints with this setup so far. 10-bit 422, etc. what's not to like. 

    So I'm trying to stay within $3K USD or under for my next camera setup. 

    I don't shoot live events or concerts, so my typical workflow is music videos, shorts, etc.

    I do plan to continue waiting on upcoming camera releases for 2016 before I make a decision. But my budget probably wouldn't cover any of the new upcoming cameras anyway.

    So I'm on the fence between the 5D3 w/ML Raw, A7S w/assassin or A7SII w/assassin. And I also have a BMCC 2.5K, so that's out of the question. Lol

    The 5D3 and A7S can be had for around $1,500-$2,000 on the used market like craigslist, etc. While the A7SII is still at a premium of $3K. And of course I would be using the A7S/A7SII w/assassin without a doubt.

    Of the 3, which would be best for overall image quality and workflow. They all have pros/cons but one of these I'm sure is at the top. 

    I appreciate any info and feedback from users with experience on the 3.

    Thanks!

     

     

     

  8. Luma/chroma curves and three way colour wheels correctors for me! Just adjust you contrast to taste, then adjust your colours and saturation to taste using any plugin/node. Go all complicated with masks, keys, feathers, tracking, selective saturation, noise reduction, etc as the scene needs! no ''settings'' one can give really, at least I can't

    I think there's an official De-Log Lut for those who don't want to manually do it, does anybody know where we could find it? The official Panasonic one? Should be a cool starting point.

    Sounds good I will keep that in mind!

    Also, sorry I was a bit unclear, in the project settings under the "Camera Raw" tab, on the top right drop down list there's cinemadng, arri, etc. And "Color Space" and "Gamma" there isn't any option for V-log. 

    I'm trying to figure out what project settings to use. Hopefully I'm making sense.

     

    Thanks!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  9. Since this is somewhat on topic about v-log. For the ones that use davinci resolve. What settings are you guys using? I know there isn't a v-log option or anything. Just want to know what you guys setup your settings.

    Thanks!

  10. Definitely not an attractive price, although still cheaper than other true anamorphics. As stated above, you can snag all kinds of other anamorph adapters along with the SLR RG/Rectilux and still have money left over versus a set of these anamorph primes. If these were priced around $2K or under a piece, then it would have my attention, maybe that's just me.
