  1. The a7s and REDs are not 1080 though
  2. Bit slow for the music, but the shots look great!
  3. I tried that plugin the other day on a7s footage. Its indeed very effective at reduce rolling shutter effects on pans, but not so much for general movement.
  4. Sneaky fellow :P Incidentally I am also about to send a camera from the UK to Germany which should cost only around £30.
  5. The a7s and RED cameras both produce images as sharp as the GH4. I know they're several times more expensive, but it still demonstrates that a technically good video image can be attained with larger sensors. As for that lens.. Well I think wide lenses have a particular application. The shots you took are wide but not necessarily interesting. And they are not as impressive as what you get from the gopro.
  6. Tempted to make the plunge but they haven't mentioned anything about the quality of the glass, which makes me suspicious.
  7. Not a big fan of how it was shot, but the camera seemed to do a good job. The exposure is pretty spot on and the colours are as good as can be expected from a h264 camera. I can see a clear IQ improvement from when you were shooting with the NEX
  8. The grading looks odd there imo. The light coloured building sticks out too much and the sky looks really fake. The process is also a bit clumsy. You would be better off doing a direct link into Speedgrade. Not digging at your work btw; I think your other videos look very nice. Especially the Adidas advert.
  9. How does the 6d compare?
  10. Do you have any proof? Because the fixed pattern noise happens at the sensor level (ie. it appears in RAW files too). I doubt a different bitrate could fix that.
  11. Am I blind? What is it about the colour there that is not achievable by the a7s?
  12. Tokina 11-16mm, Sigma 18-35mm and the Tamron or Sigma 24-70mm. Sounds like a good kit to me :) I envy your buying power.

    I saw that once today and thought it was strange. But haven't really seen it happen before..
  14. (Look at the video page to see links to his tests at other frame rates and APS-C mode) 60p does indeed look better. So the simple solution is just to film everything at that rate then?
  15. You're just being pedantic. Everyone knows that it's only the FoV that really changes, but it's easier to talk about in terms of 35mm focal length.

    Lenses

    Anyone have experience with manual focusing on the Panasonic Leica 25mm f1.4? Is the speed constant? As in, it doesnt focus faster or slower based on how fast you turn the ring? And what is the degree of the throw? Also I know that a 24mm lens on APS-C has the same field of view as a 35mm on full frame, but does it have the same compression? Also, is there any way to create a hard infinity focus stop for modern lenses such as the Sigma 18-35mm? Also, how does one add a follow focus gear to a lens that has grooves on the focus ring? eg. '>
  17. Recently came across this Looks very pretty :) You should check out the guy's other stuff too. It appears that before he had the GH4, he was using the

    *EDIT* Sorry this was meant to go in the Lenses thread.
  19. Your calculations are correct :) But keep in mind that when considering the DOF, you must also multiply the aperture. So whilst 85mm f1.4 Zeiss will gain a stop of light gathering (to f1.0), the DOF will be more like an f2.0. This is why I personally sold the 12-35mm f2.8. Because the DOF was more like f5.6, which is not shallow enough for me. I don't use shallow DOF all that often, but I like to have the option of it.
  20. I love taking still photos at night. And as a video camera, this has everything I could want. If it had shutter angle control, less rolling shutter, sideways flipout screen and OIS, it would be a dream camera. Not sure why everyone is hating on the colour. Looks fine to me! Only thing is that it was kind of creepy to see all these teenagers making out and drinking in their assumed privacy!
  21. Canon APS-C looked really soft to me even before I knew anything about HDSLR filming. I still don't understand why it was bigged up so much :/
  22. I think you're hyperboling a bit there sir. This is from my GX7 with shitty Variable ND that creates a bit more noise than there should be. And here it is with an Auto Light Balance effect. if I used a better filter and graded it properly, the tones and colour would look better. If I had the option to use a better codec than the 28mbps 50fps then the result would look better again. Still, the A7s no doubt pulls off very natural looking DR. But the GH4 isn't a camera that "cant even come close" to getting nice range. Unless youre telling me the GH4 has a worse sensor than the GX7..
