I accidentally bought an OG C100 during lockdown! This is my first outing with it - although there's not a lot of action around at the moment!
 

Nice work! Very calming to watch

Their website is from 2014, and their webshop is dysfunctional - so I'd expect them to be old tech...  Quality of LED lights (particularly color rendition) has dramatically improved in the last couple of years, so I wouldn't buy an old light.

Nice work on your edit.  The image holds up quite well, and the music was definitely a good choice

I know this is probably not anywhere close to the real quality, but if anyone wants to watch the video on a phone i shared it on instagram. Feel free to have a look or if you want high quality screengrabs tell me or alternatively I can upload it to vimeo. 


 
 

It's not bright at all in RGB mode and huge in footprint. Do not recommend. 
I went with Vijim V-2 which is 50$ on Ali, 200 gramm, compact, has 3 hour fast charge battery inside, various effects and freakishly bright for its size. And yeah, you can stick it to metal as it has a magnet back. I do recommend this one

I have this one, very cheaply made, I haven't  use it much, but the wow effect is there, and for cheap.
I believe there are newer versions out now, II and III but I do not know anything about them.
For the price, is good value I believe.

I really like it.
Feels calm and soothing.
Great work on the grade - it definitely helps sell the above.
 
How do you like the camera?
What made you consider and finally buy it?

I haven't bought or used any video gear for over a year, but yesterday I accidentally picked up an OG Canon C100 for GBP500. Oh well.

Happy accidents. 

This new X-T2 firmware will be like getting a new camera. Top marks to Fuji.

With how excited people are getting, hopefully at least splash resistant. 

Jon you know what dude... screw you. You are single handedly ruining this site because you can’t have a civilized discussion with people. You do what you want. But don’t act like other people are wrong for bumping up ISO because your Leeming LUT rules tell you otherwise.
There are a lot of impressionable beginners or people that don’t have your disposable income and need to raise their ISO because they don’t have access to whatever lighting kit you’ll spend thousands of dollars on. 
I could give two shits what you set your zebras at... real filmmakers use light meters anyway.
Good point on sLog2. But there does seem to be a pattern with Log profiles and higher ISOs.
Traditionally DSLR’s and DSLM’s base ISOs were at the lowest setting but once Log profiles were introduced, those base ISOs were bumped up. I assume it has something to do with each individual Log curve and how the information is stretched on the curve? So some curves need the additional brightness of the higher ISO to get a cleaner image?

Yep. Works particularly well with teh SLR Magic Rangefinder, or so I hear.

Your aggression and unpleasantness is starting to seriously impact the enjoyment that others derive from this forum. You derail thread after thread with your deeply insulting scattergun imprecations. We get that you don't like what Fuji have done with their new camera and we get that you don't like Mattias. So why don't you do the adult thing and leave both this thread and his posts well alone.
Edit: for the avoidance of doubt, I'll be using the ignore feature from now on. I shouldn't have to do that, in a generally respectful forum.

54 pages on this freaking camera. (Or any) Why is this particular camera so controversial here? I feel bad for the people that actually bought and like this camera, I'm sure they came to this thread to enjoy talking about it with others that like it too. I wonder if Andrew can close this one and start a new one for those that actually care about it? For those that don't, simply disregard it, it's really not that hard. 
I have to say, it's been a long time for me where I've seen people so vehemently debate each other's opinion and preference, as if that were even debatable. It felt like I was reading an Android vs iOS or Windows vs. OSX comment section. 
I'm officially checking out of this one fellas. Seen you on the flip side of the moon.
