  1. anybody know when we will be able to order these in the US again, its been on back order forever
  2. i haven't tested the 8k yet but 4k for 4k I found the a7s3 to be way sharper, to the point my clients knew I changed camera when I sent them raw footage
  3. DEFINITELY, the sony 24mm just locks on the subject instantly and never loses focus until the subject isnt in frame whilst the zeiss 25mm is good but it loses focus here and there, its still good but nothing like the sony. The zeiss image just looks better tbh
  4. I had the a7s3 and now own the A1 and so far I think the a7s3 image is sharper straight out the box. When I had the a7s3 I used zeiss 25mm an now I'm using the sony 24mm on the A1
  5. hi andrew i bought the pro color 5 and i have yet to receive it

  14. I need a machine for editing videos only, nothing fancy. I edit on a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009), 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB. When adding effects and doing color correction play back in FCPX isn't smooth, my laptop struggles a bit. I just need something thats better than what I have now that will just make my work flow run smoothly when I start adding effects and colors. I don't need the latest and newest components and the parts could be used or refurbished,not trying to break my wallent. Any suggestions?
  15. hi Andy, which 50mm lens for sharp night time vids and is the 25mm lens sharp?

     

    Yashica 50mm F/1.8 AF Lens

    Contax 50mm F/1.7 Planar T* MM C/Y Mount Lens

    Yashica 50mm F/2 ML C/Y Mount Lens

    PENTAX 25mm f1.4 F/1.4 c mount lens

      andy lee

      Contax 50mm F/1.7 Planar T* MM C/Y Mount Lens

      Yashica 50mm F/2 ML C/Y Mount Lens

      these two were made in the same factory and I have both and they are optically identical - both superb lenses

       

      the Pentax 25mm F1.4 is a great little lens and ok  at 1.4 but very sharp and usable at f2 - I use mine at f2 always

    can anyone help.. Camera - GH3 Lens - Panasonic lumix 12-35mm Problem - I film alot of night scenes with a led attached to my camera. If I'm filming people wearing colorful clothing my lens/camera works fine, everything is nice and bright on my screen but if I move to people wearing white clothing the people and screen tends to get darker. I'm filming in manual mode so I don't know why this is happening...

  21. there is no hope for that lens unless its on a tripod or something to stabilize it smh..
  22. ​majority of my work is handheld and i'm trying to find a way to use the sigma
  23. the sigma 18-38mm f.18 doesn't have image stabilization , the GX7 has in body image stabilization, if you were to use the sigma lens on the GX7would it work just as good as if the lens had image stabilization? .. been reading such great reviews about it but its downfall is has no IS..
