  1. It's absolutely superb glass and with build quality like that for 998 you should take not one but two 🙂
  2. How do they do that kind of quality for for 78p You can't even buy water at 6 x 330ml for that!
  3. It will be a repurposed Tesco plastic bag, I am going to sell it for £100.
  4. Hair is fast beating a hasty retreat so I may well call the channel FLATCAP'S CAMERA SHOW
  5. I take a look at what's been going on in cameras this week, with some thoughts on the GFX 100, EOS R6, Panasonic S1H and other "goings-on". Caution: some strong(ish) language. For more on my Hasselblad adventures see my review of the H3D II with HUGE Kodak CCD sensor here (past article): https://www.eoshd.com/review/guide-buying-cheap-hasselblad-medium-format-camera/
  6. I like the way they took "designed" out. So it is not designed by Canon? I like the way they took "manufactured" out. So it is not manufactured by Canon? Developed could mean anything. I don't like the Petapixel article, it seemed to get hooked up on the fact I am "salacious" and stating stuff as fact which everybody knows is lawyer speak. So you have to wonder what the writer's real intention is with this piece, and whether he got in touch with Canon purely to drag my name through the muck with their legal department.
  7. Yeah, the image quality is better than A7S III too. OK, there's no 4K/120p (or 100fps for us in PAL land) but you can do a lot of creative stuff with 60p in 4K and 180fps in HD. 60p can easily be Twixtor'd. I'd prefer if it looked a little more cinema camera and less Lumix but the ergonomics are superb. Colour is better than Sony too. For manual focus, tripod and handheld cinematic shooting there is nothing better for the price and size, I'd take it over Blackmagic's shit any day.
  8. Can't edit Canon LOG 10bit Can't display Fuji H.265 right! New blog post: https://www.eoshd.com/news/when-will-adobe-fix-premiere-it-kills-fuji-footage-and-cant-edit-canon-10bit-c-log/
  9. Yeah the S5 is there really to compete with the Sony A7 III, offering better video quality for same price or lower. The S1H is where the real interest is for me
  10. Here you can clearly see the reason I got the H3D-II 39 megapixel Kodak beast. Brightened it up a bit so you can see the sensor size vs GFX 100... It is "only 39 megapixel" but that is enough for me. I have found my affair with the GFX 100 a bit financially draining and exhausting to be honest! Who the fuck buys a 10 grand camera 1 month before a global pandemic?
  11. Woman finds out man having affair with 7 medium format cameras. "As if one wasn't bad enough!" The self confessed gear slut started dating a Pentax 645D and his fascination grew from there. "He was away in the evenings pointing his zoom at birds, I knew something was up!" If you read the quotes in the monty python faux-lady voice it works better...
  12. I find Panasonic are leading the entire field when it comes to actually seeing the image you are shooting. The brightest and best screens. The biggest EVFs. (Well, apart from the S5)
  13. If you want to continue to eat, consider the Pentax 645D and stick to CCD stills! https://www.mpb.com/en-uk/used-equipment/used-photo-and-video/used-digital-medium-format-cameras/pentax-645d/sku-1129519/
  14. MPB have it cheaper! https://www.mpb.com/en-uk/used-equipment/used-photo-and-video/used-digital-medium-format-cameras/used-hasselblad-medium-format-cameras/hasselblad-h6d-100c/sku-1213921/ Put the wallet away and stand back from the screen 🙂
  15. Currently used for just £20k! https://www.wexphotovideo.com/hasselblad-h6d-100c-medium-format-digital-camera-used-1779458/
  16. I wouldn't be surprised if C70 and Komodo had a very similar Canon sensor.
  17. I'm waiting 10 years for it to come down to £2k like my Hassy H3D II with Kodak CCD sensor larger than GFX 100 🙂
  18. Sensibly Sony have included a 10bit 4:2:0 option as well as 10bit 4:2:2 for 4K at all frame rates on the A7S III. So it should be much easier to edit. Will be interesting to see what the image quality difference is like.
  19. Are you using Premiere? It is the same on the M1. They don't even play at half res from the internal 3000MB/s SSD I don't even think the Canon 10bit 4:2:2 H.265 is hardware accelerated in Premiere on Intel. But Fuji 10bit 4:2:0 H.265 is.
  20. There's something about the GH2 and Samsung NX1 that they got right, and it makes me want to just pick one up again and shoot. The instantaneous of it and the quirky charm. No fuss. Fuji's ergonomics feel like they are in a straight jacket and the controls feel brittle.
