Looks like someone has made the ultimate A/B tool for your matching experiments. https://www.cineluxcinematools.com/sixteen

New cinema camera...?

Well it looks like they really need these new models to be a hit. Full story here… https://www.redsharknews.com/gopro-8k-going-concern-warning

Your mileage may vary for your particular speed booster but if you look at the options for MFT on MetaBones versions they are transparent about which lenses may have restrictions with their products. For Nikon lenses, for example, there are limitations for their modern E range lenses (as distinct from their older lenses for their E Series cameras). This is a typical set of available options for the manual only lenses. Fungus optional. https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/bn_16098984 For completeness, here is a rated list of fast Nikon AF lenses. https://phillipreeve.net/blog/the-rated-list-of-the-fast-nikon-af-s-f-1-4-f-1-8-f-2-0-f-mount-primes/ The EF Art ones are excellent but are chunky fuckers.

As you aren’t bothered about the AF aspect then Nikon F mount lenses adapt easily to EF so you could open up that path. The issue is that with the f1.4 requirement you’re looking at fairly pricey options in both vintage and more modern versions. Similarly, M42 and C/Y to EF adapters open up other paths for you. To be honest though, in my view, the path of least resistance to get fast manual focus glass on to MFT cameras economically probably lies in native MFT lenses from 7Artisans and TTArtisans. More size appropriate for what you have in mind for them too.

There are actually good answers to the 10x question for each FF mount. Sigma 20-200mm is an answer for E mount and L mount. Sony has their own 24-240mm too. Nikon have a 10x near miss with their 24-200mm and an over the top 14.2x 28-400mm. Canon has their 24-240mm too and if you don’t mind mimicking trombone playing while zooming then their old 35-350mm EF is a great bargain. I actually have one of the latter and the range is great.

Yeah the Fp stuff was my gateway to him 😂

I thought the title was slightly clickbaity but I’m glad I clicked on this one. There are a lot of “Arri look on your xyz camera” videos but I think this is a far more interesting take on it. The question is are you doomed to never match it because it is baked in (not least the IR cut filter) and it can’t be reverse engineered in post? Can anyone who has bought the Arri license for their supported Panasonic camera chime in with their thoughts?

I originally read the title as “This Guy Makes Any Camera Shite” and thought my cloud account had been hacked. I enjoy watching Brandon Li’s stuff, particularly the self shooting ones. Self shooting as in shooting on your own as though someone else is shooting rather than self shooting in the vlogging context. Tripods basically.

I’ve also had an email this week trying to get me to rush down to London for the MPTS broadcast show lest I miss their headline speaker…..erm…. Michael Gove The irony/shamefulness of having him as an expert speaker when his most famous contribution to political discourse in the UK was this.

Turns out I didn’t dream it. https://www.shutterdial.com However, what I did dream )or maybe they’ve removed the function) was that you could search by specific camera on addition to the focal length/aperture.
-
I may have dreamt this but either in Flickr itself or an external site that used it’s data, you were able to search by EXIF so you could look at the extremes of the lens range and in this case it would be to display all LX100 images at 24mm f1.8 and 70mm f2.8 which was a more informative way to do it. People can fuck up the composition and the processing but even they struggle to overcome the physics. Welcome to episode two of the series! Fixed. The EIS is an additional crop as far as I can recall.

So there are indeed some details in the video specs that will be of note to some. Internal RecordingH.264/H.265/MOV/MPEG-4 AVC 4:2:0 8/10-Bit 5674 x 2988 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/48.00/50/59.94 fps (200 to 300 Mb/s) 5184 x 3888 up to 23.98/24.00/25/29.97 fps (200 Mb/s) 4352 x 3264 up to 47.95/50/59.94 fps (300 Mb/s) 4096 x 2160 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94/100/120 fps (100 to 300 Mb/s) 3840 x 2160 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94/100/120 fps (70 to 300 Mb/s) 1920 x 1080 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94/100/120/200/240 fps (16 to 200 Mb/s) H.264 ALL-Intra/MPEG-4 AVC 4:2:2 10-Bit 4096 x 2160 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94 fps (400 to 600 Mb/s) 3840 x 2160 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94 fps (400 to 600 Mb/s) 1920 x 1080 at 23.98/24.00/25/29.97/47.95/50/59.94/100/120 fps (200 to 400 Mb/s) Interesting to note that Panasonic have sidestepped the Micro HDMI bleating by just fucking it off altogether. Although it was playback only on the original anyway.

The Leica variants of the Panasonic cameras like the RX100 always hold their value far, far better so the initial premium that you pay is offset somewhat when you sell it. Join me next time for another episode of “Flimsy Justifications I Present To My Wife When Buying Cameras”. The good thing about a fixed lens camera is that you can just forget about all of that. What you’ve got is what you’ve got. When the full spec for the L10 comes out then I would look for some devil in the detail regarding this as well in the video modes. I saw something regarding it being 4.2.0 in some modes and 4.2.2 in others for example. Not sure about numbers but the Flickr pool for the LX100/ii should give you plenty of visuals to evaluate it. As with most pools on Flickr for older cameras I’d recommend going back to closer to the end and working forward as the advent of faster internet has led to a proliferation of any old shit being uploaded. People were a lot more selective ten years ago 😂 https://www.flickr.com/groups/dmc-lx100/pool/with/55214982443
