Very nice. Added an Osiris LUT with no other changes. Looks great!

They will listen and will react, but only if you are moving away. Historically, C and N had made most of their money with cheap plastic bodies. No real innovation? Even better, as long as the people during the DSLR boom were running for overaged technology, there was no need for expensive - and maybe risky - innovation. It was a winning team. Sensor and chip producing is about quantity, mass production, 'quantity even having its own quality', to paraphrase Stalin. Run as long the casting moulds will allow to form the plastic and if worn out, make a relaunch of the same stuff with a slightly different design. A lot of, maybe even most of the customers would even never ever chance their kit lense... For a good reason, because a lot of them would not distinguish the difference between bad and good glass, at least not in their own pictures with the artificial boosted oversaturation. How many really good photogs did you know? :-) As said, most people never ever even touch the movie recording button. How many Cine Cams did C sell in comparsion? Did you know one personally who own one? Why not? An expensive tool, and if not needed everyday it's better to rent one. What profs would do. Art is expression. Don't tell me you can't communicate with your D5H4 or whatever. It's not the gear nowadays.Look at the sh1t quality of tv. Not even full HD. And thanks God that is the standard. YOU see the difference, but not your customer if you could make him proud with your footage. It's all about emotion, the story you want to tell. Yes, a certain camera brand is like a love affair... Yeah, I know: the endless hours, the experience, the hard work, to get exactly this look. The search for a lense which could transport exactly that feeling. And oh, why they did not hear me? Get rich of it, if she/he don't listen. The only lingo they understand is money. They are stupid, ugly **** - they did not deserve you. If you really need a cine cam today, rent one. Or steal one. To expensive, to dangerous? Then you did not need one probably. In history, film has always been one of the very most innovative trades. Like war. The innovation must come from you, not out of the box. If you don't make it now, it would not happen. You want this fcking cinecam? Earn it.

Aaron, that does look spectacular. Any video clips showing how that looks?

Hi everyone, Here's my suggestion: Might suit those quick camera test films ;)

fav? it has to be the Chicken stabilization Camera

I've been using it with the G6, it's a lot of fun so far. I'll try to post some tests in a day or two.

Interesting discussion with the DP for American Horror Story on how he's using film to do in-camera effects. Technical specs: Arriflex 16 SR2 Arriflex 16 SR3 Arriflex 235, Panavision Primo Lenses Arriflex 435 Xtreme, Panavision Primo Lenses Panavision Panaflex Millennium XL2, Panavision Primo, PCZ and Angenieux Optimo Lenses Digital Intermediate (2K) (master format)

Heck of a rant, but I'll agree with it. The tech to realize cinematic art is cheap and easy now. Almost anything you can buy can render a great image if you know the craft of it all. However, when one is overly involved with worrying about the tech, they're missing opportunities to be artistic. Being artistic is hard though. Buying cool camera stuff is easy.

I definitely have a knee-jerk reaction to bullshit when I read it!   I thought the girls loved your 5D Mark III Michael, why the sudden change of heart? Are you trying to impress a Micro Four Thirds lady?

I will be testing this with some Atomos gear before too long.

If you need an empty city for a postapocalyptic movie, you can do this with this camera at night :) Great footage.

Metabones GH4 Speed Booster Release date: “ When the Brown Bear of the North spies the Golden Fox chasing the Pink Rabbit down the Burrow of Discovery and the Earth is at 31.446% of it’s Sun orbit, then the Pin of Withholding will be pulled by the Black Badger deep within the Pink Rabbit’s domain. The Blue Balloon of Revelation will ascend into the misty morning skies before us all. We will look up in wonder and apprehension as the Blue Balloon rotates slowly to reveal at last; .. the Release date of the long-awaited GH4 SpeedBooster. Alas, .. If only permanent ink had been used! Baz

Or maybe it makes the most sense. The stills camera market is much bigger than the pro camcorder market so there is the most profit and the best ability to reduce costs with much larger production runs, and dont forget they didn't even have to design a new body for this, they just re-used the A7/A7R body. Why build 5 cameras at different tiers at 5x the R&D cost and greater production costs for several smaller runs, when you can make one amazing product that does 10x the business because it beats the competition and caters to many markets. Why do extra R&D to build so many different cameras if they can build a camera head that no one doing photo/video can't afford not to have. I mean it's a FF35 body that costs less than a 5D3 body and can take pretty much any lens ever made and has a proper XLR audio option and 4K output, not to mention possibly the best image quality to date? Plus there is the added benefit that they might actually start to create exponentially more demand for E-mount lenses and other camera accessories if they capture more of the market. I'm afraid if it ends up being too good it'll be tough to justify holding onto my FS700 just for 240fps HFR... But you are right to some degree, there are a lot of claims that have yet to be verified and there may be limitations on what they were able to stuff into the small form factor or what they attempted to do for video if it has to also cater to the stills market. We will know in a couple weeks.

Hello EOSHDers, I would be open to having my stuff used, at the moment I'm making dreamy Brian Wilson-meets-Morrissey stuff but I experiment with different styles: Really liked the Poplin track but I couldn't see any mention of or link to them on the Vimeo or Youtube videos...

Absolutely love your music!!! Gives the feel of a very Basia/bossa nova sound... would definitely like to work with you on future projects. You've got a huge new fan here, would love it if you got in touch with me.
