Not really the car shots and so on that I'm thinking about - I quite like them to be a bit jumpy. It's the huge number of really impressive buildings I saw in the city that just cry out for long, considered, pans/tilts/combinations that you can really only achieve with a tripod and a good head.

Being lazy, my Sony 18-105 f4 (love the power zoom!).

As far as the FX30 goes - well it's an excellent little camera. Very easy to use, produces a nice image and with the latest update even has shutter angle! A few of the lower light shots needed some NR adding in Resolve, but nothing outrageous. For the video above I didn't use Cineprint. CST, NR, Balance, Contrast, A dab of Film Look Creator then out through the DVR Kodak 2383 D55 LUT, via a CST to Cineon.

Thanks. IBIS and AS in camera, then some stabilisation in post. Like I say, I'm taking a tripod next time!

Nice! Did you use IBIS or gyro for stabilization? I definitely see some catch-up jerkiness in the pans and some of the tilts so assume IBIS.

Looks great! Making the fx30 shine 

Nice!
I think the FLC is a bit of a game changer for trying to get higher-end looks with non-cine-cameras.  You could get most of the same results doing things manually, but it makes it so much easier and faster to do that it really unlocks it.
What lens(es) did you use?

Went to Manchester for the firs time (at 60!) and it's very photogenic - I will definitely be returning (with a tripod).

If this was shot with a hybrid cam, people would rather comment. But like that, nah.:) But yeah, awesome cinematography. Yesterday I watched "Don't come knocking", very stylized, almost too crafty and obvious camera, with some clumsy acting and cast but as a whole a satisfying experience and a day later after watching, I must say, a masterful film. With hybrid camera test videos I am getting annoyed by the supposely pretty girlfriends doing supposely cinematically indystyle things with senseless pushins and gimbalibis galore and smeary netflix lighting.
I love a lot of the test videos with big fat "vintage" cameras. Maybe that's because some of the people who are foolish enough to bust their backs with these heavy oldtimers, they might be cinematographers or people who aspire cinematography with great passion and sincerity.
Yeah, discussing cinematography beyond youtube shills is fun. I remember when Tony Zhou was all I cared for, of all the cinematography and cinema related channels. On of the very greatest video essayists and a legendary contributor. Let me check if he did an essay on PTA. Thank you for sharing and putting it on the map again for me. Definately a great film. @Tim Sewell
 

I've given the topic a proper title which may help.

Watching this again. Great cinematography, great acting, completely fucing nuts.
(good antidote to the current unfortunateness with which Joaquin is currently associated).
