  1. Thanks for this!! I ended up finding one that had the upgrade and it wasn't that much over my budget. Thanks for the input guys. I ended up going with the S1 only because of ergonomics, the full size HDMI as I use a monitor and having no record limit. I know in the S5 you could just start and stop again but when shooting interviews in a multiple camera shoot the no time limit just makes things a bit easier. It gets here on Saturday and I got a couple of Canon FD primes ready to go. Really excited about this. Thanks so much everyone
  2. Thanks so much guys! I really dig that image quality isn't really a factor in your answers - can't really go wrong either way so that takes off the pressure. I will ofc compare recording time limits and see what works better for me and have a thought about ergonomics as you pointed out! Definitely! I work in post-production and it's mainly unscripted TV run and gun...natural light all the way expect for interviews. So if I were to talk my way into a shoot MFT would not be the way to go. Can't believe I didn't even think about this! The GH5 was only because I already had the sigma+metabones but when I saw the S line price I was like hold up now might be the time to jump to the S line. Specially because I am only shooting for myself now so I can ease my way into the system without too much pressure 🤑 and for my personal work which is the plan for the next couple of months, I like to use the Super Takumars, Helios and I just got a Canon FD so there's really nothing stopping me from making the change. Thanks a lot guys!!
  3. Hi guys, Back in the day you helped me make a good decision by buying the GH4 when it wasn't a popular camera and everyone only talked about Canon! I am now looking to go all-in in getting back into shooting and I need a new camera. I have the Sigma 18-35mm + Metabones combo and a couple of vintage primes that I'd be happy to use while I sell the Sigma+Metabones combo to buy FF glass if I decide to go that route. I am looking in the used market (£800 limit) and I almost pulled the trigger on the GH5ii but I saw that the S1 and S5 are going for the same price. If lenses were not a factor and the content would be scripted/unscripted tv which one would you go for? I've been through the specs and the S1 with the new firmware is looking very appealing! Really appreciate your opinions!
  4. wow guys, THANK YOU so much for all your answers and your grades!!! I will take in consideration all your advice!!! I noticed that i tend to overexpose because I'm always afraid to underexpose and then I'm in trouble but I will set the zebras a little lower for 70% for scenes like this! DaveAltizer, you even made a video!!! wow, thank you so v much!!!!!!!
  5. Hello. I've been following this blog since last year and it was such a big help to decide which serious video camera to choose! so, thanks guys. I have a GH4 and today I got my first video freelance interview and that is something that my film school just isn't preparing me for. The job is to cover outdoors events, focusing on people. So I went out and grabbed some footage outdoors in direct sunlight. Now, how would you, experienced people, grade this? I've been reading a lot of books and experimenting but just seeing your colours would really help mainly because of the skin tones. https://www.dropbox.com/s/know5akvpklxzqv/P1010768_teste.mov?dl=0 GH4, internal 4k UHD and Natural profile.
