What about the clar 500? I dont seem to be able to find any review for it.

Gvm doesnt seem to have bowens s lights. I want something powerfull where I can place a lot of multipliers on. Spotlight, fresnel, softbox, striplight. And godox is missing the effects on their lights that nanlite and aputure are offering.

I have no use for a reflector, but will use the light dome or fresnell or the aputure spotlight. Too bad these lights arent available, so there could be a comparison video. Gaffer and gear is great, but I guess he wont upload before 2021. And I honestly dont get companies that release stuff in the beginning of the year when everybody needs to buy stuff for tax writeoff. So has anybody any insights what the best lights are price/quality. As going by specs, it might not be the best idea.

Hmm seems the amaran 200d is brighte then the fs300. Why is that? I would think 100 extra watts would give it a lot more punch. Hmm still looking for a forza 500 deal. If anybody in europe is selling some new or used, let me know.

So wait, its an even better deal the amaran 200d. Can you pre-order? I need to make purchases before the end of 2020 for tax write off.

I think the panasonic s5 is the best price/quality hybrid atm.

But there are only a handfull watchable netflix original films. Only "the irishman" and "the devil all the time" come to mind. So if we become reliable to only netflix original content we might be in trouble. Hbo for instance isnt even available over here in Belgium. Most netflix content looks like easy consumable content for netflix and chill and you forget what you watched after a day.

Gotta say, I hope they all got fined for not wearing any masks. Pretty weird sight for 2020.

Hello @Sage how does the lut compare to Resolves color transform tool? Does it have any benefits over the color transform tool? Isnt the color transform tool less destructive cause it isn't a lut(not sure, not a pro colorist)? thanks,

Nice, what about post workflow?

What impact did closing the video rental shops have on movies? 20 years ago I would rent about 5 movies a week. Suddenly all video rental businesses closed up shop because TV line companies were offering renting out movies over digital TV boxes. (Since then only rented about 5 movies in 20 years, it really took out the experience for me)

Def could live without all those movies, but the shit netflix is producing is even worse. I def see value in the fact that cinema plays movies at a certain time. There is no pauze, everybody needs to be quiet, so the movie has your full attention. While at home there are thousand distractions (please pauze I need to go to the bathroom or I need a snack, oh I forgot to start the dishwasser, smartphones, kids, friends/wife/kids start talking when bored, or commenting and the list continues)

So finally received the sigma mc 21, so I took the s5 out of the box. I set up shutter angle, everything in V-log. mov c4K 25fps to C1, mov C4K 50fps to C2. - About V-log: do you guys all shoot in V-log, are do you create a custom profile with contrast and noise reduction down? Looks like I get quite a bit of grain in V-log (coming from blackmagic film log) - I left stabilization on default with IS boost on a fn button to toggle between those if needed. On screen it isnt that clear to me what mode is on the body sign is default I guess and the same symbol without "body" is the IS boost I guess. - But I noticed you can only access the high speed stuff on the S&Q dial. I see the options are very limited mp4 1080p 8bit. But does quality go down the higher the framerate? What is the max setting you would use? Looks like 150fps is the fastest full frame option. So I guess I stick with that. - Did not test any of the AF functions that much yet, but what settings work best? - I often shoot manual lenses, but double tapping the screen is a bit annoying for getting the magnifier glass for checking focus, is there a other option where it turns on with a fn button or while focussing? Thanks!

Are the panasonic s5 h265 422 files similar to those of the canon r6/r5?

Luckely I live in Europe and its all 25fps.

I might have missed it, but he did not state what codec these video files were right? If it was prores or RAW or any other decent codec it doesnt really matter, I can edit fluently 4K with playback on all my hardware. But what about H265 422 files is the ryzen still faster?

hmm looks like the tilta solution might be the real deal. Its taking them a long time though to release it.

I dont think so, but only panasonic knows. But I guess they already would have contacted you in that case. They told me they are shipping lenses over 2 weeks.

Actually I am getting one. Not because of low stock, but because of delivery problem and now the deal with sigma has passed, and they cannot deliver any sigma's anymore. But as I could not help it, panasonic stepped up and is sending me a pan 85mm 1.8 instead of the sigma 45mm. 85mm is not a focal length that I use much, and 45mm was more up my alley. But the sigma 45mm did not look that appealing to me, so I am glad I am getting the 85mm just because I want to test the AF(as the sigma was manual). Too bad it does not have IS though, but hopefully the ibis will sort that out.

Whats an MV shoot? What did you like about it more then the S5? The AF? (I got an S5, but the R5 is so expensive)

I just wished it took stills as well( with flash hotshoe)

That looks great! Makes me want to buy one. (But im going for a hybrid solution for now)

Hello, Has anybody compared AF with EF lenses on the A7S III and the S5? Which one is the best? And how good is it? As I have no intention in buying E mount lenses or L lenses. Thanks,

They could have gone way beyond a7s iii specs. Pro codecs(prores,...) + even some sort of internal raw + Anamorphic mode.
