You could shoot in Aperture Priority, just shoot wiiiiide open! (the rest on auto) That will help keep shutter speed high and ISO low. If you feel that comfortable handles the conditions then you might want to carry on with Aperture Priority but with your lens stopped down by one stop, so that the lens performs better and you get more of the subject in focus. Or you might make a different tweak by for instance by capping Auto ISO at a certain max value which is the most you'd ever feel comfortable with (as you'd rather trade it off for more motion blur instead). Or perhaps you learn that say for instance 1/300th is the average "optimal" shutter speed for your type of shooting, that gives a nice balance between a sharp face but with some blur of the limps to help convey effectively the emotion of "speed", so you might just shoot everything in Shutter Priority instead! (perhaps tweaking it down to 1/200th or up to 1/400th if you know particular performers are slower or faster paced) Anyway, you see the gist of what I'm saying, experiment with an auto mode then tweak the other settings to nudge the result into the outcome you want.

If you're looking for very high performance sports photography gear but on a tightly constrained budget then it is hard to look past the Nikon D500. Especially as they're going for such attractive prices secondhand now. Plus the Nikon 85mm f1.8G is an exceptional buy as well, a very good lens for quite a low price indeed secondhand.

Would be amazing if the old old G7 gets a 10bit update, but I very very very highly highly doubt that! Doubt even the older lower end G85 would get it (and anyway, a G90 would get it first).

Another thought is to buy both a Fuji X-T3 *and* X-H1 for the shots when IBIS is really needed. At least until a X-T4 arrives with IBIS Otherwise go for a Nikon Z6 or Panasonic GH5 If you don't want a mirrorless camera, then consider a Sony FS5 or JVC LS300 For sheer extreme tininess and cuteness the new MixPre3 Gen2 is a good choice for the solo operator, otherwise get a Zoom F8n, MixPre10 Gen2 or a secondhand Sound Devices 633 (they're going dirt cheap now!) if you want to specialize in sound but you've got no real budget. (or Zaxcom Nova / Sound Devices 833 if you're going pro)

The YouTube compression is so extremely bad on that video it turned it black & white!! :-o

Not even the FS5 can do 10bit, not unless you wish to be restricted to 1080

Sound quality is six of one, half a dozen of the other when comparing Sony vs Sennheiser. If you want an improvement in how the audio sounds then upgrade the lav mic used But in terms of design / features / ergonomics then the Sony is streets ahead of the entry level Sennheiser G3/G4

That is why the mk2 for the FS7/FS5 were basically nonexistence with their updates, because they were "too good" DItto why it is so long for a D750 / a7S mk2 / etc sequel to come out

Seems like it is just a name Watson gave their third party batteries? Which are compatible with NP-F systems

Ah right, so basically is at a hobby level for you at the moment ($4K/yr revenue). Are you doing shooting at work? You should be talking your boss then into buying more gear! ?

If you're able to charge full rental rates for an HMI and get even only semi regular work, then that chinese 1.2KW HMI will be paid back in a matter of months, not years. Yup, the hot heavy tungsten lights were the standard for many many many years, but people are in the midst of moving away from them now, which means we've got opportunities to pick up those kits for a song if you've got the connections!

Opportunity to use a reshipper then?

Nope, missing my point HMI lights are common place on even quite small shoots, where 1080 / 2K / 4K is completely normal. (I don't think I've even been on a 6K shoot at all?? And I'm pretty busy working on all sorts of productions) Nooooo..... not at all! Getting exposure right is but a small part of using lights, it is for crafting the look you want.

Wasn't B&H advertising the JVC LS300 only last week for just a few hundred dollars more? I'd take with its 4K 60fps 422 over a C100

Finally, someone gets it. In fact "insane" bargain might be more accurate than huge bargain. This is from Came-TV's "economic" line though, which I think means its ballast is a lot noisier than their more expensive ones? Not too sure, wish there were more than a small handful of reviews out there of them

Have a listen to each for moderate noise reduction too, for more light handed work, see which seems best at the job?

No real benefit of getting the new entry level G4 over a G3, so you might as well save your pennies and get a secondhand G3 instead. Except... I reckon the Sonys are better value than Sennheiser, for around the same price. So go for that instead. (either the latest UWP-D21, or the older UWP-D11) Story matters to porn too! Just the "story" is not the plot.

I dunno.... it isn't unusual to see that kind of gear on small corporate gigs.

Plenty of reasons for the GH5: Waveform monitoring XLR accessory compatibility Anamorphic desqueeze etc These might not matter to you now, but who knows, maybe it will in 6 months or 18 months time? Plus in a couple of years from now when maybe you will sell it, I bet the GH5 will hold up better on the 2ndhand market than the G9 (just because the GH series is more famous) Remember for many years the GH series was the best of the best that Panasonic offered for stills photography, I wouldn't be too worried at all about this aspect. Another year survived! Phew I'd like this, definitely affordable if lighting is something you need/use: https://www.came-tv.com/collections/hmi-light-kit-economic/products/hmi-fresnel-light-1200w-220v-electronic-ballast-dimmable

For sure, the vast majority of his subscribers won't be rushing out to buy an ARRI. But if only 0.5% of his watchers now have decided to consider buying an ARRI that will put a big influx of buyers into what is a very small market, and thus an inflation of prices. (wellllll, perhaps not an *inflation* but it will stop the steady decline of prices for a good chunk of 2020) Yes, the Sony F3 is a big increase in size compared to a GH2/a6000/T3i etc! Over the F3 compared to an ARRI Alexa Classic / RED ONE MX, then an F3 is very small / lightweight and only barely sips power! Don't worry, you're not overspending on a tripod at all! Still only scratching the surface when it comes to costs for a tripod

It is also perspective, as he is holding the ARRI closer to the camera taking the thumbnail pic. Unfortunately I reckon this video from Potato Jet is now going to help keep up higher the prices of cheap ARRIs for 2020 than otherwise, as he has massively raised the profile of these cheap cheap cameras which was otherwise slipping by unknown to most people. Doesn't ARRI do that merging dual gain approach which has been patented? (like Zaxcom's Neverclip)

You can adapt manual MFT lenses to E Mount And E mount can support up to FF, while MFT can support up to S35

1" 6K?? 4K 120fps?? Wow

Not unreasonable.... I'm on shoots now and then with an ARRI with lens sets which cost even more than the camera body cost! Isn't at all unusual. Ditto, I was recommending the G7 to people for ages as well. But now the G85 has fallen so far, it is hard to not recommend the G85 instead of the G7 Yeah it was funny how the a6500 had WORSE 1080 than the older a6000 Ditto! Was quite freeing once I accepted my main #1 focus now is the sound department. I shoot on average maybe one paid gig per month as a "cameraman", and I don't actively seek that work. All my other shooting is casually for myself / social media, or vlogs for my YouTube channel. Honestly my Panasonic G6 could last me YEARS longer..... it is just the selfish side of me which wants a new camera ? AND AUDIO!!!! If I ever get serious about jumping back into the cinematography side of things instead of sound, then I will invest first more into lighting modifiers and support gear, such as: cutters / diffs / C stands / foggers / etc etc As even if you're using only "natural light" or just a couple of lights, then how you can tweak those lights can make a massive MASSIVE difference
