Yeah realized that the hard way that it comes down to lighting , composition, grading then gear. Any links to the EM5 guy's wedding videos? Been looking at some wedding videos lately and it seems that they just follow a pattern. Nothing really stands out much

Thanks! I'll look into the Sony 35mm f1.8. I was looking into the Sigma 16mm f1,4 before but it's too high for the budget plus I think the Sigma 18-35 gives the same results, image-quality-wise.

Why did you order a C100? For work or hobby filming? Vimeo is very cumbersome for me. I think it requires very high internet speeds just to play optimally. I don't like Youtube because of how they compress videos, but YT plays immediately. Unlike Vimeo that would suddenly pause after playing for 2seconds. I like Vimeo from 2-3years ago, don't know what they did with their architecture

Hi i'm also looking for my first anamorphic setup with the Gh5/ GH5s. I am set with using a Helios 44-2 as a taking lens but from there I'm at a loss about the next stuff / correct stuff to buy. I don't want to buy an anamorphic then realize it's too heavy for a GH5. Any suggestions or a thread, where I can start building up an anamorphic setup. So now I'm gonna buy a Helios 44-2 then a clamp, then a Sankor 16c? And then i assume are 15mm rods for rails.. Sorry I did my research but I do not want to buy an expensive premade anamorphic setup by anamorphiclenses shop. Thank you for any advice!

I'm also a recent A6500 shooter but still have my Panasonics. Bought it from a friend for cheap just to try and use it as a C-cam to the GH5/s. I have a Sigma 18-35 to pair with the A6500. What lenses are you using? Any recommendations?

That's what frustrating with this Sony series lol so just have to workaround the limitations

XT-3 is really amazing and would love to test in in the field. But since you're used to the GH5, it won't be difficult to adjust to the GH5S. How about adding a Ronin-S or Zhiyun Crane 2 to your budget plus an Atomos recorder or SmallHD Focus. The gimbal will help with the GH5S since you're gonna miss the IBIS i'm sure. I always had thoughts like 'Why is this damn cam so shaky?!' when using the GH5s lol. Also the Atomos recorder / Smallhd focus for better focus peaking. If you're going for the Atomos Ninja/ Shogun or Ninja V, you'll be glad if you want unlimited recording since the SSD drives can store much more than the SD cards

Nothing yet vs other competition like the Sony A7III but I've found these vs GH5s: http://tide.film/blackmagic-pocket-cinema-camera-4k-first-impressions-and-comparison-against-the-panasonic-gh5s/ vs GH5: So basically image quality wise, the new Pocket 4k is near the GH5

The guy who uploaded this is a pretty well-known commercial director in the Philippines. So I'm not surprised about the grading and the kinds of shots that he got from the P4k ?

@Sage have you encountered gamma shifting after rendering in Premiere. I was using the Emotive Color lut on Lumetri>Creative like what the manual says, and like what I see on my screen on Premiere. But after rendering and, i get washed out colors on Quicktime. But playing on VLC looks fine. Problem is, I think after uploading to Youtube / Vimeo, it will follow the Quicktime desaturated look. Any advice on this? Thanks
