    Geoff CB reacted to Josue Nunez in Sony PMW-F3 with 2500 hours on it. Should I buy it?   
    I did it guys. I went back to the Sony F3! Finally found a descent deal on it. 2.1k for all this. Since I don't need the 4k I was between this, a canon c300, c100, Sony fs5 and fs700. 
    The F3 with 444 has 850hrs and the pix e5 came with 960gbs of storage.

    Geoff CB reacted to Video Hummus in Sigma Fp first shots - how does internal 8bit RAW compare to external 12bit RAW?   
    Someone needs to make a device with a USB-C port that takes the CDNG from the camera and outputs compressed CDNG to a T5 SSD in realtime.

    The 40mm and 28mm along with the 20mm 3.5 and 90mm 3.5 is my favorite set of lenses. Great separation, smooth rendering, and extremely light. Highly recommend them. With low light performance getting better and better I think they will become more and more useful.

    Geoff CB reacted to tupp in Canon Cinema EOS C70 - Ah that explains it then!   
    Yes, but it is less light on a proportionally smaller area.
     
    So, cropping-in on an image circle doesn't change the exposure.

    In terms of visual post effects that can effect the image. "Sharpen & Soften" effect in Resolve and a slight drop in exposure.

    Sony has an excellent 16-55 2.8 for E-mount.
     
    It will look completely the same, but you WILL get a stop better lowlight performance. Sensor crop DOES NOT effect the light level hitting the sensor. 
     
    Don't think these really show how highlights behave, it's clearly a overcast day.

    Hopefully they don't go the Nikon route on quality and pricing. Nikon's 1.8 optics are perfect, but that causes them to be wildly expensive. Hope the Panasonic ones are "good enough" and affordable.

    In most settings outside of studios and other insider gigs, the more complicated the rig *looks* the better. It’s an external way to project a sense of mastery to your client, and if you deliver as promised, then the equipment helps make the price easier to justify **in the mind of the person paying the bill.** That’s good business. 
    And if the work looks too easy and uncomplicated on the surface, then no amount of verbal explanation to the uninitiated will get them over that hurdle. Complicated looking equipment also tends to cut down on stupid questions from those who don’t know better. There’s lots of weekend photographers out there who know what an SLR looks like and does, and seeing one on the sticks will tend to invite curiosity. Turn up with a camera that looks like it came out of a studio (even if the capabilities are essentially the same), and you will tend to invoke awe, rather than familiarity, which will tend to keep your smaller budget clients out of your hair on set.

    The RAW shooting Sigma fp with the Baveyes 645 medium format speed booster is a little powerhouse.
    Particularly when you can now add ToF autofocus to that manual Mamiya 35mm lens.

    The URSA Mini Pro is so much better in numerous ways, not least having built in NDs, and better QC. 

    Although personally, the FS7 is very close in pricing to a UMP, and you'd get far more work to pay off the FS7 than if you got a UMP, so I'd recommend a secondhand FS7 instead.

    While that is a beautiful video, with a fantastic grade,  I really dislike that these things are labelled "Dolby Vision." Youtube DOES NOT support Dolby Vision, only HLG, which is worse than HDR10 format in terms of image quality. It may have been graded in Dolby Vision but it is not Dolby Vision display on youtube.

    What focal lengths and sensor size are you looking for?  and what 'look' do you want, ie, the modern look with lots of contrast and sharpness, or a softer rendering?

    So would I if the hardware costs involved in providing real time AI face/object detection combined with 3D depth sensing allowed it.
