DriftProductions reacted to boxtree in Panasonic G7 and Metabones Speed Booster XL hands-on - Super 35mm 4K for cheaper
Hi Drift Productions, really nice vid. Can you give some more info, what lenses did you use, settings on camera, any colour grading used etc.

DriftProductions got a reaction from mike_tee_vee in Panasonic G7 and Metabones Speed Booster XL hands-on - Super 35mm 4K for cheaper
Best thing I have ever done selling my Nikon D750 and prime lenses and getting the G7 with Metabones Speedbooster XL!
Such a killer combo, thanks for the great review @Andrew Reid I'm new to videography this is my first video and stoked with the performance of this little cam

DriftProductions reacted to xzoticskillz in Sony RX100IV + DJI Ronin -m = Dolly Slow Motion Test
This is my first official test with the Sony RX100IV. I wanted to create a project that tests 3 things: 1) Slow motion quality 2) Dynamic Range 3) Slow motion with Dolly (using the ronin-m).
I decided to use my energized furry friend Simba as my talent. The dynamic range is incredible in 120p due to the high bitrate and I found myself having the best grades in post using this mode. Using the Dji Ronin-m made this setup extremely light and I was able to move extremely quick. I shot this video using only 120p, 240fps, and 480fps. Decided to get creative with the editing. Watch in HD and enjoy!

DriftProductions reacted to Oliver Daniel in Sony RX10 M2 - first part of my review and a mini-comparison with the A7S and Canon 1D C
My RX10 II's are from DigitalRev and they are fine.
Took one out for a quick spin as needed some pick up shots for a simple narrative in a music video.
First Impressions:
Good Stuff
- A lot of fun to shoot with!
- Steady in the hand, even at 200mm.
- Easy to use and change settings quickly.
- Lens is the best feature!
- Slo mo is great upto 240fps.
- Amazing "shot-getter", could be used as an A-cam on low budget stuff.
- Not too difficult to get some nice shallow shots.
- Very compact.
- Motion cadence is better than expected.
- Stills are good enough.
Areas to Improve
- Peaking and zebras seem to need a bit of firmware tweaking for accuracy.
- Zoom is slow when recording. And noisy.
- Screen is very flimsy, needs looking after!
- 2 seconds is not long enough for 240fps.
- Video thumbnails are pixelated in preview mode.
- Menu button placement is awkward.
- Should be able to use shutter button as record. (come on Sony!!)
- Battery life is terrible. (Sony should do better here!!!)
- No MLUT for Slog2 (judging light is hard in this mode without MLUT).
- Not good in low light.
- Difficult to seperate subject from background on mid-shots. (cant have it all).
- Can look sterile in 4k out the box (incredibly sharp!)
For the money.... it's a fantastic litttle camera.
