No zebra's and a histogram that disappears after you press record?? Did not see anyone else mentioning this up untill now. Canon crippled the camera just enough to make it clear their c-line is for video. Kai also again mentions RS and shows it, better watch quickly before he ninja-edits it out again.

Only if you need controlled motion, in my case it's not worth the extra cost, I only use it for a few slides troughout the weddingday and then it's just fine to manually move the slider. That only works in the beginning of the day.

I use their slider one with a flex tilt head because it's so small that it fits in my backpack, the travel length is shorter but good enough for my needs.
-
The main reason why most don't bring extra wheights or sandbags to a wedding to secure tripods is that it's just another thing to drag around all day, it's hard enough to keep up with everything that is going on, with slider shots you place your camera, make a quick sliding shot and move on and then it's much easier just to hold down the tripod yourself.

Are cameras without IBIS and AF useless for shooting video in 2018?
dantheman replied to A_Urquhart's topic in Cameras
For most vloggers they are. -
I have a Laowa 7,5mm f2 which is permantly used on the gimbal, a Panasonic 15mm f1.7, Panasonic 42,5mm f1.2 and Olympus 75mm f1.8 but also a 12-40mm f2.8 and 40-150mm f2.8 from Olympus. The 12-40mm I use the first part of the day when I shoot handheld, I shoot documentary style and work alone, a zoom is in such a case the most versatile to quickly get the shots I need, during the ceremony and speeches I have more controll and start using primes. Primes force you to move to a point to get the composition you want, that's fine when you have the time but especially during the first part of

Your film is out in the open so why don’t you want to share a link? We could comment on his film and link to your film questioning why he stole it from you, unless he has comments disabled?

That was shot in 2013, I particulary liked the skintones the em-5 produced but I often saw the codec fall apart with visible pixelation on high detail scenes while he was moving his camera but that was on the em 5 mark I which had lower bitrates then the mark II. His shooting- and editing style however made you forget about that

I think you are refering to Vadim Action? I also liked his work, he has some recent weddingvideos on YouTube, here is one of his em5 videos from a couple of years ago, not sure what he uses today.

I have the first generation zhiyun crane (bought it in aug 2016) and have been very satisfied with it, had a beholder ds1 before that for a year which I liked because of the small size but it did not perform well as I got jitter in my footage, something that is not the case with the zhiyun. what I most like about it is batterylife, it just keeps going Currently I"m using a Panasonic gx80 with a laowa 7,5mm f2 and I use a quick release plate so I only had to balance once and then never again. Today there is so much choice and prices have gone down considerably, I don't think you can go wrong w

I would just buy a electronic gimbal that supports the weight of your 5D, they are a lot easier to operate for beginners and can be used in windy conditions. Mechanical steadicams like a glidecam requires much more experience and are trown off balance more easily outside. A true horizon gimbal head would be interesting if you allready own a glidecam (and vest/arm) but if not save yourselve the trouble and get a gimbal instead, gimbals will allow you to quicker achieve controlled movements.

Much depends on who your clients are and what you use the camera for, I mainly shoot weddings and 4K had given me nothing but advantages: I am selling a 4K file to my clients since this year (for 2018-19 weddings) as a paid option, About 7 out of 10 clients takes it, not because all are able to benefit from it now but they will in years to come. 4K might not be "standard" now but it eventually will be. Some of my clients do have a big 4K screen, I have one too to showcase 4K, 4K on a big screen looks much nicer then 1080p does. I often get the question if it's not possible to take fr
