  1. Not to be confused with the Nikon Coolpix 950! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon_Coolpix_950
  2. This! What @HockeyFan12 said x10 As much as I'd like to recommend MAGIX Vegas Pro and HitFilm Pro to newbies, the commercial reality is that if you want to make a career out of this being employed by others then if you want to aim for the big big time doing editing full time the Avid is essential to know, while if editing is just one of many strings on your bow as a "general videographer/editor/etc" then you should learn at least one of Resolve/Premiere/FCPX (although if you're just approaching this as a casual amateur then give HitFilm or Vegas a serious look at instead!). https://***URL removed***/opinion/3313009578/why-davinci-resolve-16-is-the-best-video-editing-software-for-beginners
  3. Will that be happening before or after 2030??
  4. A good reason to have a new kid every year. Maximize that copyright potential!
  5. Your entire post shows utterly utterly and completely fcvked up copyright laws are across the world! And the USA has a large amount of that blame! Forcing their stance onto other countries. And Mickey Mouse constantly being extended (2024 will be a year to watch!). https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/01/a-whole-years-worth-of-works-just-fell-into-the-public-domain/
  6. An interesting combo there! Am guessing the GH5 is only being used for a very very small proportion of shots for specialty scenarios? Such as shooting in a tightly compact bathroom, or on a car rig, etc
  7. So yay, 10bit internal FINALLY for a Canon DSLR! </s> But who knows what weird and random "GOTCHA" they're going to give us with this? A massive crop factor? No DPAF in 4K 60fps 10bit? A far too low bitrate? Or the exact opposite and an overly stupidly large bitrate? Something we haven't even thought of yet that is weirdly bizarre and inexplicable, such as omitting audio recording if doing 10bit internal or only allowing it in B&W???? People should have been disappointed enough times now by Canon to stop getting excited by any new Canon launch. Wait until any new Canon product is shipping, and in the hands of independent reviewers, before starting to get excited about it. (I'm more interested in knowing what the Nikon D780 announcement will be next week) BOOM! I predicted it. No AF during 4K 60p or raw, and hefty heavy bulky files. To easy to foresee, is typical Canon behaviour! Everyone should promise to end this abusive relationship with Canon and promise never to ever return to her, never to give her a penny more. (& definitely not US$6,500 more!!) It feels like YEARS people have been saying "another six months until the a7S mk3, I'll just wait...." Kinda agree with @wolf33d , Sony is turning into the new Canon. Let's support Panasonic / BMD / Z Cam / Sigma / Kinefinity / Fuji etc instead! (we're spoiled for choice, no shortage of options to choose instead of Sony!)
  8. Nothing new here, and the only "good" news is what we already know that is: So yay, 10bit internal FINALLY for a Canon DSLR! </s> But who knows what weird and random "GOTCHA" they're going to give us with this? A massive crop factor? No DPAF in 4K 60fps 10bit? A far too low bitrate? Or the exact opposite and an overly stupidly large bitrate?

  9. Is now 2020 and I'm still filming in only 1080 Heck, my last two YouTube uploads were in 720P!
  10. Don't bother with an external recorder with the Sony mirrorless cameras, as they're only doing 8bit external anyway! They're more useful (but not essential) with Nikon / Fuji / Panasonic / etc mirrorless instead. Ditto, don't really bother with external batteries unless: You want to use it mostly as a counterweight for your shoulder rig, or you're needing to power lots of accessories as well at the same time.
  11. It is on IMDB, but otherwise I've got no idea what is going on with that Panasonic G7 shot feature. Huh?????? Are Andy Lee and Brandon Li the same person???
  12. Wonder where I’d fall under? Professional: because the vast majority of my income comes from working in the film industry ....or.... Non-professional: because only a tiny proportion of that income is due to me operating a camera. And this is after all “a camera forum”.
  13. Government official: “But wait doesn’t that defeat the point...?” Kubrick: “Do you want quality or not.”
  14. Ohhh... That would be a surprise, but also quite possible that DJI could put out a RED beater As DJI has already made their large sensor RAW drone cameras Next step is for them to take that same camera and turn it into a more crew operation friendly camera for when using it purely on the ground
  15. I reckon 360VR has better chances of coming back as a delivery format than 3D, there is still much more life left in 360VR than 3D. You've actually living in 2039, having a vintage 2019 experience. You've actually living in 2039, having a vintage 2019 experience.
  16. I’m skeptical about gimbals dying out, but yes that’s might happen with steadily improving IBIS (however some companies might struggle at this, such as Sony who are trying to shoehorn a full frame sensor into an APS-C mount) however the really big change will come from integrated motion sensors into the camera to read back hyperaccurately for EIS with a sprinkle of AI magic Wonder which Chinese brand will deliver the killer blow, Kinefinity or Z Cam? False, the Nikon D90 “accidentally started” the HDSLR Revolution. And as the Canikon dulopoly watch each other like a hawk, Canon went “oh shit, we’d better add a video feature to our next release” (the 5Dmk2). If Canon gave the slightest damn about their users they’d already have put video in their Canon 50D, or even earlier. And then shortly after, a few years later, those niches died out. And are no longer in peak fashion
  17. Poor GH3, it's the forgotten middle son left out in the cold.
  18. It was 2014?? Time flies, that does make me feel old
  19. The ARRI ALEXA Classic does barely squeeze into fitting within the 2010's decade, came out in April 2010 Hmmm... good points! I was too much just thinking about cameras, but undoubtedly focal reducers and gimbal have had a MAJOR impact upon the past decade of filmmaking
  20. Easy, I'm choosing the original BMD Cinema Camera 2.5K Was groundbreaking for its price and quality. First camera with raw for anywhere near that price point. And was the entry of BMD into the camera market, who are now major player, which makes the BMCC 2.5K especially notable.
  21. I'd give a recommendation for the Zoom H3-VR as well, is crazy insanely cheap. Every VR hobbyist should have it. Although if you want to take it more seriously at a semi professional level, then get a Rode NT-SF1 / Zoom F8n kit instead, which is itself insanely good value for money as well, and will be another level above the H3-VR Yes, the usual platforms (Facebook / YouTube / etc) all support ambisonics For decades ambisonics was "a solution looking for a problem" Well it has found its problem, VR! Perfect match.
  22. When I saw the thread's title, I was fully expecting to click on the link and find this thread to be dedicated to porn
  23. But the less adapters used the better. And what about other mounts, X Mount / FZ / etc?
  24. I believe the Meike lens is fixed with the mount it comes with, you can't change it :-/
  25. They've forgotten the most important part of the Veydra recipe ? Swappable mounts!
