    what did you shoot at ? f2 ? it's a bit soft to me on the skin but if shot at f2 this is normal or maybe he is moving on this shot, some distorsion too on his face but hey this is a 24mm and it isn't bad at all. colors look good. waiting to see the footage not just an image. for 20 bucks this is a steal i like it, retro looks nice bokeh and finaly not perfect and that is why you are gonna love it.
  4. https://www.wd.com/products/internal-ssd/wd-black-sn750-nvme-ssd.html#WDS100T3XHC the good news: new m2 ssd from wd comes cheap compare to previous ones and is pretty fast. will be great for 4k or even bigger files. supposed to be 3 470mo/s in reading mode and 3000 mo/s in sequential writting mode. comes also with an optiona l radiator. 249$ for the 1to i think is a fair price for new product
  5. there's always something new arriving main reason for never buying anything ?
  6. too bad he doesn't test it with the bmpcc4k
  7. it is a great camera. especialy if you shoot images too like me. i have shot some film during my LA trip 3 weeks ago, only night shoot as i didn't have a nd filter and the only one i wanted wasn't available. need to edit and grade as soon as i finish building my new pc. can't compare with bmpcc4k for image quality but for what i've seen it is different in the way that i think you can use the xt3 with less accesories than the bm. you also have good af and slightly better baterie life. cons is the menu that is too much for me in the xt3 but hey the camera can do tons of things. cons is also 422 external and no raw. but so far everyone find this camera to be fantastic for the price so... also will test soon the vintage lenses i've recently bought, i know you like vintage lenses
  8. the thing is, if you follow his advice, that you would shoot 1200iso in daylight and 400 at night. so why constructors spend time and money building dual iso cameras ? as most of us need high iso to shoot at night and low to shoot in daylight. people doing photography are used to zone system, at least the one that shot print film. you just need to set the exposure for the result you want more than for standards exposures. with film we used to expose as wanted and we processed the films with order in order to complete the process
  9. Fous peaking Is good on the xt3, as long as you chose the right color. Forget about Red. I used red all the time on my 5dmkii and can barelly see It on the xt3. High yellow Is actually ou choice and then focusing Is easy

    car shoot

    i might not be the only one but i live cars, mostly vintage ones. so i plan to film some in the future. and of course you need some special equipment to do so. so i wanted to create a subject where we can add all the equipment, gears, tricks that are usefull to film cars and people in cars. thanks to all that will share their experiences
  11. it's already been posted but at least he is testing both the moza air 2 and the bmpcc4k

    too bad you didn't use a tripod and shot exactly the same image. but i agree, your feeling is influenced by the colors and not the "qualities" of any lense. but isn't it what we all look for, being attracted by a "look" more than cold technical informations ? if you look into pure technicals specs then the russian lenses would never sell

    I am thinking about declicking my vintage lenses like the tokina 17mm and helios 44-4. Did some of you did it ?
  14. moza air 2 is 3.53 lb / 1.6 kg (with Battery) so in between. strange how few people seem to talk about this gimball that looks like being at least as good as the ronin s if not better and cheaper
  15. lighter than the ronin s but it seems that light means less strong motors and for the bmpcc4k you need stronger motors than the weebil has. that's too bad as i wish it was a light gimball with strong motors somewhere. in the future for sure
  16. tom antos prefers the moza air 2 for the bmpcc4k

    got lucky i guess, bought the 17mm rmc tokina yesterday with fd mount, wasn't really happy to finaly get a fd mount but got lucky again as i found another one with nikon mount which looks even better and same price. guess i will resell the fd one to get even and maybe even get a few bucks out of it
  18. stop complaining and buy yourslef a proper photo camera !!"? loved that

    so far the issue seems not to be the quality of the lenses itself but the mount which is a pain...

    Eos r is... Sh...t expensive and has many downsides. Huge crop factor in 4k etc... Forget about canon, the are stuck with marketing and product lines. The still think like 10 years ago. Don't have gh5, might get bmpcc4k ; )

    Forgot to mention that none of them works with af lenses keeping the af working in case of ef lenses
