  1. Streaming BTS is a good idea. Hmmm... I wonder if I can convince the director of the current film I'm working on to do this
  2. My view is never ever buy Samyang/Rokinon in a mirrorless mount (if another option exists). As all the lenses are identical across the range of mounts they're offered in. Because lenses should last you a long long time, across many camera bodies. This you want a mount which is as adaptable as possible to the maximum extent, which is why I went with Nikons for my Rokinon Cine DS set: http://ironfilm.co.nz/rokinon-cine-lenses/
  3. Remember, you can use all Veydra lenses on the Terra 4K! And on Kinefinity's other cameras, such as the newly announced Kinefinity MAVO 6K S35 https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2018/03/veydra-cine-mini-prime-mtf-optical-bench-tests/
  4. I think you two should both just mute each other if possible... so you never see each other's posts for a while. Maybe after a six month cooling off period you could revert it back to how it was before. First step, go here: https://www.eoshd.com/comments/ignore/
  5. Yeah from memory Tizen kinda grew out of what the LiMo (Linux Mobile) project used to be?! Thus I wouldn't completely rule out the possibility that MATLAB could "run" (with some issues) on a Samsung camera... :-o But even so, even *if* possible, it strikes me as an extremely odd thing to do! Edit: As yes, I am right: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tizen_Association
  6. MATLAB runs on Linux as well. But yeah, would be a totally weird choice to run on a camera. (even though I'm a fan of MATLAB myself! Spent many many many many many hours with MATLAB. Not quite sure what was the earliest version I ever used of MATLAB, but it must have been at least MATLAB 6, maybe even MATLAB 5. And now I'm starting to show my age.... Edit: heh, I just remembered many years ago I even used a super ancient version of MATLAB, maybe was MATLAB 4 or even MATLAB 3?! Because I was running a physics experiment which the program for gathering the data only ran on a particular PC which only could have that much older MATLAB installed on it. Fun times)
  7. DR can be a tad subjective, depending on how you measure it, and RED are well known for overstating on the generous side their DR
  8. Wow, through product testing beforehand by them! :-o Not :-P
  9. And that is exactly why the Alexa LF came out
  10. It is not just about frequency, they still need to offer something in terms of content. A person could upload hourly just white noise, and it would get them nowhere fast
  11. Hopefully Nikon enters mirrorless with a bang this year Agreed! So glad that finally finally FINALLY Nikon updated the D300. About time.
  12. Yup! Some YouTubers punch is so extreme is must be like 240p or worse!
  13. What about the new Kinefinity announcement?
  14. Sometimes I'm surprised the a7S isn't banned from being exported because it has military technology in it :-P What huge beard? I didn't see one in the video If the price is a "bit high", maybe he has one he can sell us cheaper? Why don't people on dpreview rip into him every time he posts?!
  15. Thanks Mark, lots of solid points there for Godox Illustrates how time and experience with a camera can matter even more than the camera itself.
  16. And RED is no longer alone in the "greater than 4K" market, as Panasonic, Kinefinity, & others have offerings in this niche as well.
  17. I did buy my Nikon D5200 mainly just for video, and I'd half sort of consider the D7500 too (once its price comes down).
  18. All Nikon FX cameras (unlike Canon...) have a DX mode. haha
  19. C1200/C300 are a different kettle of fish to Canon's HDSLRs
  20. The reason is Canon NEVER intentionally sparked DSLR filmmaking, they stumbled onto having the crown of the #1 choice for DSLR filmmaking entirely by chance it sometimes seem. Remember how the Canon 50D was a whisker away from having video in it. But was only thanks to Nikon introducing video in the Nikon D90 that Canon felt that they had to respond with their own HDSLR camera. (because Canon and Nikon watch each other like a hawk) That crop is waaaaaaaaaay worse! As the 5Dmk4 has no way to easily handle this crop, as the EF mount means no access to native mount lenses designed with that crop in mind, and also no focal reducers can be used. Canons (unlike Panasonic) have historically been known to overheat.
  21. I was hunting for a Neumann 185 for a while, got close a few times! But ended up with an AKG Blueline in the end: And now since then already upgraded to the mic above it from AKG! But still waiting for it to arrive from Oz
  22. And that is why it could be a good thing to point out the flaws in Canon and drive away potential buyers from Canon. As likely Canon will only come screaming kicking to the table to offer us more, if their bottom line gets hurt. That is what is need for them to jolt awake and pay attention. Indeed, and that is what allows a greater variety of companies to thrive rather than just one monopoly.
  23. They have sold in past cameras for as cheap as US$2.5K But going "mass market" opens up a whole new can of worms, so they might not want to go down that path of radically cheaper prices than even that. As it is, Kinefinity is already very very cheap! Their most expensive camera is more or less the same price as the cheapest new RED.
