A good video showing real world ice cream.
Sorry, I meant real world usage.
 

This was at the top of my YouTube feed today.
Genuinely thought at first glance it was going to be Mackey’s review of the ZR.
Maybe the world has got so twisted around that Depp is now cosplaying Mackey.
 

And with the Techart Pro MZ adapter you can have them autofocus as well.

That’s the end of an era right there.
I’ll have to part ex my S5ii and some lenses to get the Z8 like I should’ve done two years ago.
Less the end of an era and more the end of an error.

I was exactly the same watching the CVP review.
And then right at the end they showed some Z8 clips.

 
The one I’m least arsed about is the HDMI port as no matter the size they can all snap off if you hit them.
Theres an argument to say the Micro version is preferable because it’s a smaller target 😂

In the CVP review, they made a point of confirming that the sensor can NOT be locked.

I like this camera.
The problem is I like about twelve other ones as well.
The indecision is saving me a fortune.

OK, I’ve managed to do spot it in a flash of a menu jn a non-related part of a ZR review.
They’ve gone for the weird to have it but then not mention it route.

If it is the z6iii underneath then that has wireless timecode over BLE from the UltraSync/AirGlu eco system.
The specs of the ZR list that it has BLE but makes NO mention of it using it for UltraSync/AirGlu.
Weird if it didn’t have it but also if it does have it but they have left it off the specs.
I’m sure one of the many extensive in depth launch day reviews on YouTube will clarify it.

Redcode NE?

While all the rumour sites sites try and flex about who was first with the leak about the C50, this guy is sat there quietly with a TWELVE YEAR lead 😂

It won’t be a subscription and what upgrade fees do appear in the future will be modest.
 

Oh…

On the surface this could appear to be the first step on the slippery slope but at least in this form it’s actually potentially a possible positive move.
Its difficult to get the detail as their link provides no further information but my reading of that tweet is that if you are working on something and need an additional seat for a collaborator then you can rent it for the time needed without having to buy them another full license.
Of course all of that still ties you in to having the paid version of their cloud account if you want to do collaborative working so there is an underlying subscription element involved albeit one with a useful every day function of storage.
Based upon the comments under that tweet, Blackmagic will be in no doubt from their users about any progression to a full subscription model for Resolve.
It might well be that this method of rented functionality tied to the Cloud account may be the way they go for access to what they consider premium new features in the future.
Time will tell.

Yes.
 
 

On the subject of the thread title of YouTubers fighting, it appears that two prominent ones have been fighting so much that they are getting divorced.
But sharing custody of the YouTube channel.

Casey Neistat and Candice?
Matt Granger and his 200/2 Nikkor?
DSLR video shooter and his entire camera studio attached to a rolling lightstand?
Gerald Undone and his own ego (or Sony?)?
Bloomie and his cats?
The Camera Conspiracies guy and his most 3d popping lens?
Snapchick and Raymond?
Cam Mackey and yellow-toned footage of cars driving around in the sand?
Pooter McCubbins and ugly poorly-made leather goods?
Potato Jet and his FPV drone?
Matti H and Pooter McCubbins' leftover views?
Mathieu Stern and other peoples' lens adapter ideas?
FroKnowsPhoto and his Canon rep?

Today might be an interesting day as apparently in a few hours time Viltrox will be announcing that they have now officially joined the L Mount Alliance.

Good news for L mount owners  in general but particularly so for those with an S9 as some more size appropriate (and low price) primes should become available.

Had a fun time trying out my X-M5 micro cinema rig on a low budget, 3 day music video shoot last week. No overheating or issues of any kind shooting 6.2k prores raw in open gate mode to an Ninja V+. Insane what this little guy can do for an $800 purchase (body).
