I've always liked the F35/F65 organic look but was unaware that the F3 shared so many similarities with these cameras. The camcorder feel of it is both a bit awckward (it reminds me of my first Video8 cameras) and fun. kye 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pascal Deshayes 10 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Hi, I'm learning the F3 and I can't find a better way to set the white balance to a desired value than using auto white balance and hope that it somewhat works. Am I missing something here? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dogtown 28 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 You can find that adjustment in the picture profiles. Select a picture profile ( you can find profiles on Ablecine website and how to load them) you can then go into the matrix on that page and select the white balance temp.

Pascal Deshayes 10 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I had just received some FD lenses yesterday when it started to snow so I took the F3 for a first stroll. BenEricson, mercer, PannySVHS and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PannySVHS 984 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Looking great! @Pascal Deshayes Is it the internal codec? From a test I must say its internal codec gives a C300MKI a good run for its money with better dynamic range and latitude in SLOG. Second shot from top is pure cinema! Show us some magic in motion, please! What lenses did you use? Need to get a FZ to FD adapter! This week my Blackmagic Video assist arrives from the bay, 5inch powerhouse giving me 10bit 422 60p with my F3! It even comes with smallrig cage and mini sdi to sdi cables. Cannot wait to test all the F3 awesomeness! This is by far my favorite thread at the moment. Whenever someones is posting here my heart beats from exitement.:) cheers IronFilm and Pascal Deshayes 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pascal Deshayes 10 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Thanks mate! Congrats on your Video Assist, I'm looking forward to see images I don't have that much to show as these were my very first tests and I basically toyed around with focus and stuff but I managed to salvage a few stills that show the texture of the combo. Canon FDs S(S)C 135 and 28mm. Slog internal codec. About 6 sec. per shot in Resolve. Really, this footage grades so easily it's cheating! I like that smooth and dry feel.

Pascal Deshayes 10 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 By the way, would anybody here have a copy of the firware 1.4, by any chance? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pascal Deshayes 10 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 A few more FD stills. The internal codec shows its limitations pretty quickly, though (artifacts). Next stop: ProRes 422 external. PannySVHS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josue Nunez 10 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Hey guys, are any of you interested in buying a Pix e5 recorder? It comes with the box and all the accessories including the sun hood and the D-tap cable. Also, It comes with a 960gb Drive and like 4 old NPF batteries. 800$ I still plan to keep my Sony F3. But I have some unexpected expenses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
