Hi fine folks of the film!
I have been lurking on this thread for a while.
I am in the market for some kind of cinema camera and stumbled upon the JVC-GYLS300, would it be okay to ask for your opinion?
I found a guy locally who was selling his almost new for about 900 USD with all the bells and whistles (mic mount, charger, extra swit battery and Slr Magic lens), do you guys think it's still a good deal in 2020 at this price point vs similarly priced DSLRs? I was hesitating between this and something like a Sony A7S2 for the low light capability, or maybe the newer A6400 for the great autofocus. In addition to be able to shoot actual movies, I wanna be able to easily live stream without an additional cameraman. I know, different goals mean different cams... Can't have all at once!
Oh and I noticed the JVC seems to have a very singular look. It seems kind of softer than some of these other cameras I mentioned but in a nice way. It kind of looks more old school, I don't know how to describe it. Also how do you find the 120fps slow mo quality with this thing? I heard it was not great for some reason.
What do y'all think?
There are so little reviews on the JVCs compared to Sony, Canon, Nikon etc...!
