Which camera are you most excited about? What did I get wrong? Let me go first: 24mm on GH7 (Micro 4/3) = 48mm on a Full Frame, my mistake! Also the Fx6 & GH7 does not have MINI XLR but regular size XLR.... Also also I hate Mini-XLR
No Fujifilm xh2s 🧐
Lumix s5iix!!!!! Need to add that camera to the list honestly. Cant wait for the new flagship release from Lumix, it's been agessss
I just want a light affair, a Lumix S9, Full-Frame, IBIS, 6K Open Gate, Anamorphic Dee-squeeze with the sexiest Image that fits inside a pocket (no skinny jeans) for $1,500
Never Nikon...
@Boss you miss Arri Log in GH7
24mm x 2x crop factor = 48mm not 65mm. But also lumix has an awesome 12mm f1.4 lens with Leica that gives the 24mm equivalent. 👍👍 I don’t plan on getting a GH7 but just wanted to put it out there that you can get an awesome 24mm field of view with the MFT system.
yeah i think i was referencing 1inch... ooops!
also, Gerald Undone's video was due to the S9 launch, not the GH7. Also, he didn't really say M4/3 was dead but that its peak image quality had been reached (when reviewing the GH6). That was the statement he retracted.
@@markboneLike I said, pixel snob that can not even count.😂😅. Stop hating on m4/3
Exactly! I was like- where's he getting his info..
We're all looking at the super car engine and then we get into our mini vans and drive the speed limit home.
"but I need my internal raw, 8k at 120fps no crop for my CZcams shorts! also, primes are always better and you're a fool for not zooming with your feet."
Mark is legit, but there's so many content creators out there that have no clue what is actually useful or necessary on real projects and just latch on to buzzwords. People need to be reminded that most of us aren't close to working on projects like Mark and that we don't need cameras any more fancy or expensive than what he uses for our relatively simple purposes.
@@stevesdead You meant to say that we don't need cameras as fancy or expensive as he uses for our relatively simple purposes. He's the "king of overkill" imo. But his information is solid, not knocking his talent or knowledge.
GH7 MFT against cinema line cameras from another brands? This says a lot from Panasonic.
Yeah that they are stuck in the past.
@@ethanmitchell7753 😂
@@ethanmitchell7753 lol, if you went to the theater instead of watching Netflix, you're stuck in the past.Yeah?
@@ethanmitchell7753😂 - lol NOPE - LUMIX always pushing the limits and with such a small sensor they deliver epic results. I own a GH5 s - and a C300 mkiii
The 5 year old GH5 s - still holds up as a powerful camera 🔥🔥 the GH7 is wild!
@@ethanmitchell7753 name any MFT camera that gets compared to cinema line cameras. ☕☕
For someone starting in the wedding, event, or corporate space, the GH7 is an amazing choice. It's small, light and super capable. Plus you can find fast MFT glass on the used market for a fraction of the cost of the other options.
You can also get a speed booster...
A couple thoughts/clarifications
1. Crop sensor cameras (s35/mft) offer a couple of unique advantages over full frame in the adaptability of lenses and the ability to have a more compact package overall. A lot of cinema lenses were made specifically for s35 so adapting them to like formats is a lot easier, especially considering that when adapting s35 lenses to full frame, you are losing resolution. Crop sensor formats also have the unique ability to use focal reducers and achieve looks very similar to full frame with .71x adapters for s35 and .64 adapters for mft, while also gathering a stop more light. This isn’t to say crop sensors don’t have downsides, because they absolutely do, but there are a plethora of reasons a discerning videographer would choose these formats.
2. Mft crop factor is 2x so a 24mm becomes a 48mm not a 65mm.
3. The pyxis, though great, can only shoot in full frame formats up to 30p and can only achieve up to 60p in a s35 crop 4k. If slow motion is your thing, don’t get the pyxis. (Edit: yeah, this is wrong, I think I misremembered the tech sheet. Apologies for misinformation)
4. I honestly have doubts on the fx6 ii. Sony’s probably been developing it for a while now, and they may be too far along in development to produce a proper response. I hope I’m wrong though.
The Pyxis notes is incorrect. The camera can shoot 6K up to 60fps. It’s only up to 36FPS in the 3:2 mode.
@@JamesJacksonFilmz you’re 100% correct, I must’ve misremembered the frame rates and tech sheet from the cinema camera 6k
@questioneverything680 the bmcc 6k is the same fyi and can also shoot 60fps outside of open gate.
@@Jeff_Lathrop yeah, I know the formats are the same between the pyxis and CC6K, I was saying I misremembered the tech sheet. I could’ve sworn when it was launching that it was stuck at 6k 36, but clearly I’ve had the wrong information this whole time lol.
The Lumix S5 ii because it's the camera that I own.
Same! Let's go!
I have the S5iix and it has exceeded my expectations on quality and usability. The Autofocus and stabilization is amazing.
@@TimNovotney-ui1rr Right!? Open gate has changed my ability to quickly turnaround higher quality work with better framing and options alongside how great both the regular and high e-stabilization is. The high stabilization is pretty much a tripod whenever you move the image.
@@TimNovotney-ui1rr #IBIS FTW
How does the GH7 stack up
After joining AOD, I've really leaned into the camera doesn't matter as much aspect. I think we've reached a point where many cameras from different brands are really good and you can't really go wrong with your choice if it was for yourself. As someone that really enjoys customization and deeper colors, I enjoy the Lumix color science and recently switched from Sony to Lumix after joining AOD. I'm excited for the films I'll be able to make thanks to the skills I'm learning over waiting to buy new gear just to feel like I'm making good films. It starts in mastering the basics and craft, not the gear you have.
Love your perspective CK! Choosing a camera is a wild world that really doesn't matter much in the end as long as you comfortable with the one in your hand!
@@markbone You, the team, and AOD community are teaching me that, appreciate it!
I’m happy with my S5iix (although I’d love the 32-bit float of the GH7). Timecode, OLPF and built-in ND filters would make it the perfect camera for me. Looking forward to seeing what the S1hii has to offer.
I’m stuck between the S5IIx and the GH7. Any advice from an S5IIx user?
Both are great cameras. GH7 has less rolling shutter, better slow mo options, a wider selection of cheaper lenses, 32-bit float (with the XLR accessory), internal ProRes recording with CF card, and ARRI Log. S5iix has the advantage in low light, dynamic range and shallow depth of field (and is preferable for photography).
I previously had a GH5 and am happy with the change. Petapixel has a great review of the GH7 if you want more info. Ultimately it depends on your use-case. I’d say GH7 for pure video, S5iix for hybrid (although I’m hoping the successor to the S1h will have the best of both worlds - but this will probably come at a significantly higher cost).
What about that XLR adapter from Panasonic? Can’t you get 32bit Float on the S5iiX with the adapter?
@@kazlepek6552 the XLR2 adapter is currently only listed as compatible with the GH7. The best alternative for the S5iiX is the Zoom F3 (although you can actually buy the Zoom F6 for the same price as the XLR2).
Nikon s6iii?
A7S3/FX3 is already 4 years old, and still is almost perfect tool for any job.
you mean fx3
Just goes to tell u gear aquring obssesion has gotten out of hand. Like every new camera braging about 6k,8k etc and everyone needs to have it and then 95% of that footage ends up on instagram, tiktok or youtube lol. 4k is gonna be viable for at least 5 more years, and even tho cameras advanced the equipment required to show that camera work has not.
Doesn’t matter if its 4k or 1080p where most content are consumed aka phones, they pretty much look the same, it doesn’t even matter how high res the screen is.
Where it matters is in post, 8k would probably save money in terms of lenses.
For the desktop background, it is from "Happy Together" by Wong Kar-wai.
Legend. Thank you!
No Z8/Z9? Internal Raw, 6k60p plus every other codec/frame rate you can think of. Now if they only added shutter angle and waveforms...
I dont own that camera, but its really hard to deny how awesome it is. I have this weird feeling nikon is going to be dropping strait heat from here on out
8K60p* 😊
As a 4/3rds user, the GH7 is my next camera. But I use a BMPCC4K so I’m already in the system. Adapting lenses is so easy!!!
The equivalent focal length on the GH7 is 48mm and around 43mm on the GH5s/BGH1 when using a 24mm lens.
Hi Mark. I agree it's a great time with new innovations. It can be a little confusing for me being new to these types of cameras. Last time I shot actual film was 16mm in 1972.
Threw a like for those Final Thoughts - that image of people talking about a car motor and not driving was wonderful
Agreed!
I don't understand why people are so scared of BRAW. You get so much more flexibility and the data rates are way smaller than prores. The only small drawback is needing the dedicated player for playback on computers outside of an NLE. I think everyone is just misinformed and still thinks it's unmanageable.
Maybe for shooters who edit their own content. But for some of us who we have to hand over footage to clients in most cases this isn’t really an option.
Because those people don’t use resolve
@@JojoJoget I mainly use premiere still. Only use resolve for proxy generation and color.
When it comes to Blackmagic you gotta mention that they are brutally honest when it comes to the advertised dynamic range compared to Sony or Canon for example.. you'llreally get those 13 stops outta that camera.
Sparking a BBQ debate for your outro… you’re a brave man 😂
Nice video thanks for sharing, I for one love the image that comes out of the Blackmagic cameras and the sony cameras.
The $25k Burano only has XOCN LT, so hard to see how Sony will bring XOCN to FX6 anytime soon and still justify price of Burano
Waiting for the updates for Panasonic S series and Sony FX6/3
Hey Mark, great vid! Just wondering what lens was used to shoot the shot at 2:02? Need those flares in an upcoming project! Thanks mate
Pretty sure it's a Helios
I actually recently bought a used Sony Venice. Great package at a great price (way cheaper than a new Burano). Of course one could argue if a Venice is the ultimate doc camera... the biggest downside is that it's really heavy. But the weight also helps to keep the camera movement really steady. It's also kind of power hungry (especially with the raw recorder attached). But the image.... wow! Just wow!
The gear obsession is real out here lol..yeah, its hard to get a bad camera nowadays. A large percentage of people believe they need the newest camera to create "cinematic" images (it hurt saying that word) but they are mostly shooting for CZcams, or the marketing hype sells them on a camera they dont need at this point in their career. It is a good time to be in the industry though due to accessibility!
It's a horrible time for the industry of filmmaking with way too much content and fewer and fewer places to market that content. So spend 7,000 to 10,000 on a camera and try making back that money of a good movie or mini-series or anything that might gain more traction than a festival. Find out what kind of time we are really in.
6:14 Isn't Pyxis connects as a web cam via USB? As BMCC6K Full Frame can in its 8.6 software.
I’ve been shooting on a GH5 for years and JUST rented the S5iiX and I am blown away! Fixed everything the GH5 lacked
Under the Pyxis a better note would have been " 3:2 Sensor ". Didn't hear that mentioned. Love this comparison! Canon C400 is gonna be an absolute unit.
Good thoughts, mate! Being afraid to “drive” when comparing specs is something that continually hits home for me. I see stories slipping by while I’m studying test charts and whatnot. Thanks for keeping it real.
The reason these topics are so tasty is it makes you feel,”if I only had THAT camera, I could make something great.” Then I remind myself some of the greatest movies of all time were shot on film and they had no clue what they were actually shooting because there wasn’t even a viewfinder then.
Sean…just go make shit
never thought I may want a m43 again but this is tempting and small lenses. also a nice welcome.
The GH7 and other M43 cameras can be used with most lens mounts with adapters. When running a Metabones Speedbooster we are getting an extra stop of light, better clarity and a unique look with our Nikkor primes for example. The "crop factor" becomes about 1.25 on our version, putting it between full frame and S35 so you can get decently shallow depth of field. We run native M43 lenses when we want a smaller and lighter package or greater depth of field. Very versatile. We have the GH6, GH5s, and EVA1; they color match perfectly in Vlog. We're also a Red shop. Thanks for your excellent videos Mark!
Hi Mark, very interesting video! I am a videomaker from Italy and I’m a Sony FX3 and FX6 owner. When I shoot with FX6 (cine EI log 3 cine) the image is more noisy than the FX3, do u know why? I know that the noise reduction is always enabled on the FX3 unlike the FX6 who is manual (I keep it off) but with the same exposure the FX6 is noisier…
Do you have any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
If you post this on Reddit in the videography forum or maybe the Sony fx3 and fx6 forum, I think a lot of people will reply to you
FX9 for a Zoom call, Mark Bone that is a baller move. Great video,.
Terry Black's barbeque is really good.
Red sold licenses for internal compressed raw to all of the major camera manufacturers. The former CEO mentioned this in a live stream. He even said they can use R3D. So far the only ones with no mirrorless offerings with internal compressed raw are Sony and Fujifilm. Hopefully they will offer it via a firmware update.
What about Nikon and RED
You wearing a Terry Black's BBQ hat threw me off for a moment. Glad you got to experience some Texas BBQ at some point! Cheers!
Honestly I'm still a happy camper with my a7s3. There's clearly better cameras out there but for what I shoot it's been good enough.
In a year or two maybe I'll be more likely to look up a new camera. If I were looking for a new camera now I'd be looking at either the FX6 or the Canon C400.
Regarding the lack of HDMI on the PYXIS, there's the SDI as you mention but also the front USB-C with monitoring capabilities. BMD is rumored to release affordable USB-C monitors. Great camera but wish it had less rolling shutter (though that can be fixed in DaVinci Resolve easily).
love the car analogy!
Less than a minute into the video….wait, is that Chris Williamson of Modern Wisdom? Are two of my favourite corners of CZcams coming together for something!?
Fan boying pretty hard right now
I own a RED Komodo, an URSA 4.6K G2, a Sony A7sIII and a Canon R5C. I just love to try stuff. I think it's important to keep an open mind, they all have pros and cons. And I have PL adapters for all of them, so I can use all my PL lenses no problem! I would have LOVED it if Blackmagic had announced a third camera to fit between the 12K Cine and the Pyxis. I feel like the gap is pretty big.
S5II and X are worthy in this lineup. 6K open gate, no internal ND or SDI but the ND is mitigated with the drop in filter PL adapter I have. I’m about to do a build on the channel with my new Rigid Pro Cine Back. It makes it feel like a whole new camera. I appreciate your video though as it was very insightful and you always give the best value. Thank you Mark
At 12:51, that's what I need in my life 😊 Just someone to care!! Yea cameras are just too crazy anymore. All I need is to make my fx6 heavier so theres less shake. I find myself using an A7siii if I don't need good audio just for form factor. I'd rather just use a smaller camera with image stabilization. I know I know I'm weird. I've thought about selling my fx6 a few times, but using it makes me feel cool.
I think one of the important tech stats that matters is the ability to shoot in 10Bit or higher.
For the start this might not be a big deal, but I'm getting to the limits of my A7c when editing. The 8-Bit Colour kinda fells apart fast when Colour grading.
Most Cameras these days can shoot 4k and you can get nice lenses and audio from various brands.
overall I feel like that you should choose a brand that you feel good with. I LOVE the feel of my A7c with the smallrig cage. I hold it in my hands and want to shoot something. I think that matters more than having the best stats on paper. Worked with an BM 6K and it was pretty bad ergonomic wise, the footage quality was good though.
Beautiful share 😊😊
How is 24mm on MFT equivalent to 65mm? It is equivalent to 48mm
micro 4/3
24mm would approx be 65mm on a 1-inch type sensor. Or he’s just really bad at math.
@@MattParson i realize my chart i was referencing was a 1inch sensor. MY BAD. Shows how much i use micro 4/3
@@markbone I’m sure the flange distance wouldn’t work, But it would be amazing if Panasonic made a native speedbooster for full frame L-Mount glass on M43 bodies to get closer to full frame and have Phase detect AF.
Or if metabones updated the EF to M43 booster with phase detect AF motors!
This whole “I like wide angle so MFT doesnt work for me” sentiment I’ve seen from multiple CZcamsrs is so weird to me… makes it clear they don’t really research and try these cameras before talking about them.
Thanks for the video
Hi Mark!
Have the Gh6, will get the Gh7. Sirui have the Nightwalker series(T1.2) Leica have both the 10-25mm and 25-50mm f1.7 OIS. And then there is my all time favorite Leica 12-35mm f2.8 OIS, tiny and buttersmooth. I suggest on trying it on the Gh7, I can imagine it being the ultimate handheld combo paired with the XLR module.
A9iii with a Ninja V+ tbh. I think Sony missed a hit by not using the A9iii sensor in the Burano, 6k XOCN with AF and IBIS with a global shutter and maybe cranking up the FPS options beyond 120fps because global shutter
When people ask me about cameras, I always tell them that Sony has the best ecosystem. Low point of entry and relatively similar experience up the line.
My exact thought on the GH7
No Nikon?
I'm gravitating to the Pyxis 6 because of the price at the moment. My FS5 is simply too old, and i need an upgrade, i dont even use my sony for work anymore, it doesn't meet my client's needs. I now use it only for skating. If only i could afford the C400, this camera is very compelling. If i had to choose between the Fx6 and C400, it would definitely be the C400. But like i said before. i cannot afford anything above 4k.
With a GH7 you can use two types of Speedbooster and get an equivalent to S35 or FF, it's pretty versatile
Fujifilm GFX100 Mark II is not on the list?
Wow! Bark Bone, Talking bout more than a camera phone! Mind Blown! 🎶
Boy that MFT can be tempting with all those features packed in it, especially for Panasonic fan boys.
But yeah, focussing on how to tell stories better is my priority at the moment.
Just wanted to point out that on the Sony FX3 (I don't know if the FX6 has it) has native ISO of 100 and 2000 if you don't use Log.
I like this. Just found you channel, and you are on it, home-sauce
Pyxis can be L mount and fit all your vintage glass. Come join the vintage medium format crew!
Forgot to mention that ARRI LOG C3 in the GH7 now
oOOOOOoOOoOoooooooooo LOVE ME SOME LOG-C
@@markbone never got to use it, but from what I heard it’s on point with matching alongside ARRI cameras especially in risky situations for example near water, near a cliff, or for small tight spot or on a drone those kind of situations you don’t wanna risk a +$100,000 camera vs just a $2,200 smaller camera 😂 I think it’s super clutch it’s the ULTIMATE B CAM can be an A CAM if you’re an up & coming budget filmmaker can definitely get the job done especially with a large availability for cheap lens options 🎥🙏
If you opt into the MFT format you'll probably only end up having a small selection of native MFT lenses. For a large part you're adapting up to canon EF which gives you loads of cheap APSC and full frame options.
The great thing with mft is that you can adapt s35 or FF lenses with a vocal reducer. Then one, is able to reduce that 2x crop to 1,5x or even less.
Exciting times, and yep, spot on with your final comments Mark ;-)
I wouldn't hold my breath on Sony adding Burano/Venice codecs to lower-price models - heck, how long did they leave between announcing an fx3 firmware update with shutter angle and actually releasing it?
One advantage of stepped ND’s like on the C400 is that you don’t have the polarizer issues which you encounter with the Fx6 e-nd
Every time i see a new camera releasing i get fomo. But as a parttime filmmaker who also shoots photos there is no way i can justify a FX3. So i got my XH2S and XE4 from fujifilm. One for professional work and one to take pictures in the weekend and on holidays. And honestly the footage you get from these camera's is mind blowing if you know how to shoot and light.
Best video ever. You start with Cowabunga and end with the car engine (so true) comment. Cool and saying it like it is😅😅
haha thanks man
Panasonic ProRes RAW internal should not cause litigation. A bird told me an agreement exists with Nikon.
CAPTURE THIS BIRD AND GET THEM ON MY CHANNEL
Mark, RAW doesn’t get you any more dynamic range. It’s only giving you more colour information.
Interesting approach to ISO they're locking yourself off to the base ISOs. Something to think about.
I own all canon gear and was super pumped for the c400 since it’s actually good and I think an fx6 killer unfortunately I don’t think it’s an fx6 mkii killer which it kinda needed to be. My company just bought 2 Buranos and XOCN is INCREDIBLE. It’s incredibly efficient for RAW and the downsampled 6k sensor format is perfect. Love the format. If they release and fx6 mkii with xocn and internal audio I’m sold and swapping to Sony. If not might give the c400 a shot. The rf 24-105 2.8 is my new favorite lens
Gh7 is great for its size. Very versatile. Great for Documentaries, one man productions, run & gun and travel.
idk why everyone's obsessed with full frame, and when you say that a 24mm on mft is 48mm, that's just the reach...it's still a 24mm lens with the same amount of distortion, dof, compression, etc that you get on any other 24mm. It just has further reach.
I appreciate the comparisons.
Though, it was odd that the only non-full-frame was the Lumix, when the Lumix S5Xii exists and is a pretty popular camera currently.
It seems like comparing 3 apples and 1 orange.
It’s a look at new cameras compared to what Mark is already using, the FX6. Does that context help you?
Ah. Yeah, he does say cameras “coming out”.
well, if dont like gh7 go to s5iix with full framebut no prores raw
12:45 its the cutes thing fx6 with helios lens love it
Call me crazy but the Panasonic s5iix is more appealing than the gh7. They have some new features with the gh7 but to me mft vs full frame thr s5iix has it for me.
Naw I agree with you
Was the GH7 used purely for marketing reasons as there's no way it's the Lumix choice over S5iix. Poor comparison.
Love my S5iix but the GH7 has some great new features. S1hii is the one to watch in my opinion!
I have a couple of Pocket Cinema Camera 4Ks as well as a Ursa Mini Pro G2. The Pockets with a speed booster will give you close to an S35 look plus you also gain a full stop of light. I've shot lots of stuff with them with both M43 lenses and S35 PL mount lenses with a Metabone speed booster and I'm getting similar results. Now this said, I get your point about M43. Maybe Lumix should move away from that if they really want to get in the filmmakers' market and not stay in a hybrid photo camera/video camera state. By the way, I use Tilta cages on my Pocket Cinema 4Ks with a side handle that has a follow focus wheel. The handle houses a Sony NP-F970 so the battery life on that camera is quite good. The BRAW codec is really great on so many levels. Yeah, Prores is fine too and I sometimes use that depending on the gigs/client needs. However, lately, I've been editing everything I shoot so I always choose BRAW in those situations. You can change your white balance and ISO after the fact so very convenient when you're doing colour correcting/grading. One day I may make the move to Sony though. I love those FX9, FX6 and FX3.
What if you can’t afford one of these cameras? What if your budget is around $2k-$2,500 including one lens? I’m currently saving for the Sony A74 maybe with a 35mm lens. Any advice?
I'm a blackmagic fan but the c400 is a killer. By the time you rig up the pyxis it might be around the price of the c400.
1:09 of course let’s excuse Sony for the miss opportunities on their cameras
Right?
What about the new Z6iii or z9, those cameras have N-Raw, 6k/60p no crop. And a good hybrid still. Nikon keeps being sidelined and im no nikon fan.
MFT + Speedbooster
MFT is bad low light but you can shoot f1.4/f2 let that light in and have an f2.8/f4 DoF, so because of the format you win 1 stop of light vs FF.
For a videographer, or someone who doesn't do big budget or cinema jobs the GH7 seems unbeatable. Like you get around 60-70-80% of the bigger name cameras for quarter of the price
X-OCN is basically the same thing as B-RAW... They are both compressed RAW files.
Since you included the Lumix... you should have included the Nikon Z8 into that list... strong code, raw format, with cinema lenses beautiful images, and a professional photography camera and it cost less than 4 grand. Nikon is back guys and hitting hard with their cameras. Probably Nikon could be my next camera.
Love the C70! I want a C400, although I'm not sure I need a C400...just want it!
Oh snap, glad to see you passed through Austin and tried out some BBQ. I with you on that. My BBQ is the best. LOL!!! S5ii, S5iiX and BMPCC6k all day for me.
Dang man! I’m sad to see the Nikon z6iii wasn’t in this video 😢
NIKON Z8! 😊
About MFT: You can use so many lenses on it like Canon EF or FD with the added benefit of an extra stop if you use a speed booster adapter. I use a Canon 24 - 105 mm, with a max. apperture of 4, which turns into a 2.8 appature on my GH5S. You have already corrected your mistake about 24 mm translating to 65 mm. 😊With a speedbooster, the factor is only 1.3. So it's really versatile for a low budget.
But because of the m4/3 sensor, an f2.8 would really be like an f5.6 full-frame equivalent, if I’m not mistaken. 😅
I think you are mistaken, a 2.8 remains a 2.8 no matter what the sensor is. More light is more light. @@stevenkralovec
@@falkiser2882 light transmission-wise I’m not sure, but depth of field wise I am correct. See Gerald Undone’s video on Depth of Field Myths
Mark is the man, and I am a long term AOD member.
And I totally disagree with him about the gh7.
Here’s why.
Full frame sensors just by the way of physics are going to be limited in terms of ibis. And while they give us great options on lenses and looks, they lack the ibis and focus needed for true handheld work.
The gh7 is simply an amazing b cam, handheld beast. I don’t think it is suppose to be a rigged out cinema camera. It’s suppose to be a vlog, documentary run and film beast.
I can take that camera, and then take my fx3 and go film the same handheld thing. And we both know which one is going to look better . (And be easier to color grade…. Cough … saturation.)
I love strong opinions! thank you for sharing yours! I still don't like 4/3 toooooooo tiny for my stubborn shallow DoF brain
@@markbone I hear ya mark:) don’t worry I still have my fx3 with way, way too many lenses. And a Helios 44;)- I know how you roll lol.
And when the fx6 ii comes out, I’ll be the first in the list. Sold my last one, just could not get over the sound and rigging.
And as far as the lumix, 32 bit in camera, ProRes raw, arri log, open gate,cfas type b, one of the best ibis ever made with Leica glass… that’s a beast of a rig.
And all that with a wee wee tiny sensor lol.
Btw all the new updates on AOD are rad. My printer is busy. So much good information
RAW is indispensable for any shoot where you can't control light. That means you have to shoot it when it happens, not when you and your crew are ready and everything is optimized. Lots of filmmakers fall into that and are saved by RAW
Mark primarily shoots docs. I also shoot primarily short form run and gun content, and none of it requires RAW.
All that RAW is, is the preservation of RGB instead of conversion to Y’UV in camera and reasonably high bit rate. Literally that’s it.
Highlight reconstruction is a software trick, not saying it’s not useful, just saying that RAW isn’t magic.
@@JeremiahBostwick I'm not disagreeing with you. I realize one can shoot very high-quality without using raw. We're both on opposite sides of the coin. For me, I struggled with 10-bit 422, even with a $5,000 Canon camcorder. Switching to raw on a micro 4/3 Z Cam quadrupled image quality. We're just different use cases.
I thought for the pyxis the USB C has the ability to do HDMI to USB-C, right?
7:05 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Comparing a FX6 to an Alexa is like comparing a Yugo to a Ferrari
🤦
lol
Yeah, but he's comparing 10bit. I match a c70 to Alexa all the time, but canon's color science is more on point with Arri's in my opinion.
@@MrMoviePhoneEx his words were that editor said “the colorist loved it, she said it was as nice as an Alexa” that’s bunkers to say when the industry knows that’s far from true. Sony users are delusional about their cameras.
Sticking with LUMIX S5iix.
