I sat down with my friend Dave Maze for a podcast recently. We talk about the origin of EOSHD 10 years ago, and the start of the DSLR video revolution, my filmmaking adventure in Berlin, recent controversies and edgy camera opinions.
Big thanks to Dave for taking the time to let me ramble and for listing to my waffling!

I think Panasonic will jump straight into LiDAR in combination with their existing DFD technology, and I wouldn’t be surprised this is going to be introduced next year. LiDAR is free from nasty Sony patents and I have seen really impressive results utilizing this technology so far.
DFD will remain really important for ‘understanding’ the image; LiDAR is just ‘depth information’ so they’ll work together to provide (continuous) focus.
Shot on the S1 with a 1/8 black pro mist (side interview shot is GH5) and some 16mm grain added in.
Heavily graded but if you have a bit of color grading knowledge then the S5/S1/S1H is a big step up from GH5 (not to mention low light capabilities). I think the v-log on the S series has a more organic quality than any of Sony, Canon's, Fuji's current offerings (less sharpening).
Just bought the S5 as a 2nd camera so look forward to testing that out.
Really enjoyed this, from the nostalgic storytimes at the beginning, through the gear talk, to the little grilling Dave gave you. It felt candid and effortless, and it left me entertained. Thanks. I’d sub to your podcasts.
Logically, you'd think they'd put the R5 internals in the C70 style body, whack on an EVF and even double the price if they wanted to and serve up a powerhouse that still undercuts the Sony FX9 by 20%.
Then you wake up and remember who's logic it is that we're dealing with.
