    Nice edit.  Simple, but mostly friction-free.  The dialogue was free-flowing too, so perhaps the subject was relaxed and concise or you made some nice edits.  Either way is a good thing, being able to interview properly is a skill I know I don't have!

    I do all family oriented photos and videos. The last few months I've mainly been using the Motioncam app on my Pixel 6a to shoot full sensor RAW video @15fps. For photos I've been using my newly acquired Panasonic Lumix GM1. But the love is equally shared with my GX85 and G85.

    I gave you a like for your unusual choice @Rinad Amir of camera. Noooot:) But for the Konica 35-100 F2.8 which you might have combined with it, which a I got because of your recommendation. Best direct lens recommendation I got, besides my 8EUR Tokina 25-50 F4 from @andy lee, one of Eoshds lens connoisseurs.
    I put my Fs700 to a bit of use for some additional income, in HD 420 mostly. S1 got a little share of that. GX85 my eternal love, awesome beautiful image taker and camera. Sony PMW F3 waiting to get any use:) BMMCC used for some camera enjoyment. 5D2 and 3 to test which one is cooler for raw video and hopefully not collecting dust with the F3. Second FS700 never used, collecting dust. BMPCC og collecting dust. I am a dust collector like my lenes. Don´t start me on lenses:) Still got a G7, Oly Pen EP2 and E-PL1 🙂 
    Looking forward to see some (moving) images from your beauties. 🙂 @Ty Harper @majoraxis

    Well, I'm assistant editing with ARRI footage.  [name drop!]  
    Seriously though, filming our own thing this month with a XPRO2, EM10III, iPhone, and a GH5.  I even used the old Canon 5DII the other day.  All over the map.  I guess you can throw in GoPro and DJI while we're at it.  7 camera manufactures, one project.  Also, all the different lenses we've been using are ridiculous.

    Very awesome kit!  The GH2's are so killer for the price!  GH1's as well, you can get them for under $100 if you look hard enough!  Such a nice 1080p image from those older Lumix MFT cams, back when I used a Panasonic G7 as my main camera I always liked the mojo I got from the 1080p image, despite it being pixel binned and a low bitrate it had surprisingly good detail and held up well all things considered.  Would often use it instead of 4k to save filespace, and I always was happy with the results!

    I am using a Nikon Z6 with either an Atomos Ninja V or an Atomos Ninja Star. Mostly shooting oversampled 1080p out of the HDMI port. By setting the rec setting to 4k and HDMI out to 1080p. I use the ninja v when I am doing interviews or lighting stuff so I can take advantage of LUT monitoring and waveforms, etc. For run-and-fun BROLL though I usually use the Ninja Star. Keeps the setup light and small. 
     
    As for lenses, to be honest I currently only have a Tamron 45mm 1.8 F-mount lens using the Nikon FTZ adapter. Looking to explains, however, and am strongly considering the Viltrox 24mm 1.8Z. Or maybe I will go with an f-mount Nikon 16-35 f4 as a nice affordable autofocus-capable ultra wide.

    I can rattle off about my Z6 but the only problem is very few people if any use that camera on the forum besides myself.  If anyone has questions about that camera though I'd be happy to answer, I've been using it very consistently for over 2 years as my main video workhorse.

    Welcome back dude, and stay around!
    Image is like my 3rd job in the industry, so I spend a lot of money for sound mainly, but recently I worked with A) GH5 3 cameras setup B) A7Siii and A7iii setup C) last night we worked with 2 C300mkIII and 2 C70s, I love the latter..
     
    Personally, 
    I still using my fleet of NX cameras, mainly because the lens collection is amazing. I bought this past summer the R7 and a couple of years ago the BMP4K. I am relatively set for the moment, but I am eyeing the R8 now, mainly because I have so many EF and RF lenses that makes perfect sense to just have the option..
    As I said, it isn't my main job, but I want to stay relevant somehow (that is why I have the Pocket for braw, and the R7 for the run and gun..

    Thank you! You can go ahead and assume that there was neg on everything except the super wide shots. I’m a bit lazy when it comes to scrimming, so no. The scene in the park was actually shot before golden hour, which is why the light on them is so hard in the wider shots, but i like the edges that you get from that. For the closeups, the sun was already behind the trees, which is why it looks so soft in comparison.
    We had a tube light which was intended to emulate the hard edge, but obv it wasnt powerful enough at all, but i still liked the slight extra level it gave on that side of her face.

    Let’s share our work guys!  I’ll start. Here is an interview I shot and lit the other day, featuring a congresswoman from Indians!  One camera was a Nikon z6 recording into an Atomos ninja v.  With a Tamron 45mm 1.8.  The other was actually the ancient, cheap Canon 7D fitted with a Canon 85mm 1.2 shot at f/2.5!

    My argument was that we all didn't start with the equipment we now use..I am not sure that this makes this camera less capable for what it was made for..there are half a dozen Sony cameras one can choose (for around that money) and I choose noone, by the way! For me it is not a big deal, for some people this camera is a dream, and I get it..

    I'm still using my 5D Mark iii with ML Raw as my main camera for hobby narrative filmmaking. I recently bought a Sigma FP which I like okay enough. I also have a BMMCC all rigged out but I never use it. I think I'll sell it soon so I can hold onto the FP for a bit longer.
    I'm still unsure about the FP. I like it, but it doesn't feel like an extension of my arm like my 5D does. Here's a frame from the FP with the Nikkor 35mm 1.4 ai-s lens that I took recently while working on a short film...

    Otherwise, I have a few film cameras I enjoy walking around with when I'm out and about.

    Hey Kye, hope all is well!
    This is a great thread and I feel this way a lot. I haven't bought a new camera body in awhile, just been refining the packages for what I have.
    I haven't been filming much lately, but don't have any of the latest or greatest.
    Currently own/use:
    Nikon z5, (2) Samsung nx1's, samsung nx500, Panasonic g9, (2) black magic pocket OG's, Panasonic gx85, Nikon d800, Contax g1.
    The z5 and G1 have been my primary stills/fun cameras.
    nx1's and the nx500 are still my main video package.
    Been building up the pocket camera package for a bit.
    G9 has been awesome while I've had it.
    gx85 is mainly hooked up to my computer as a way overkill webcam.
    D800 has been kept because it still delivers the goods and can take advantage or the older/screwmount Nikon Glass I have.
