  1. 645 original is dirt cheap secondhand so if a person wants to try film it is a good idea Pentax in the digital era has always had the cheapest medium format cameras. Thus is appealing purely on that point alone. & they're good cameras too, Philip Bloom is os a big fan of the Pentax 645Z That just illustrates how DSLR stills performance has hit a plateau for many people A Nikon D5200 (& sometimes a D90!! :-o ) is my main stills camera
  2. Good news / bad news: Hi, it's the SSD module. And I'm sorry but we would be uncomfortable declaring a lesser value than what it sells for. Happy bidding!
  3. Not even with a few strategically placed O rings? Another factor, is some dead cats are designed to work on top of the foamie or and others have it built in. Perhaps yours is the first kind? If so then keep the foamie on underneath it while putting it on otherwise it will be waaaay too loose
  4. Nah, but in the context of 4K recorders that seems quite affordable. Paired with a $1.5K FS700, that is an impressive value 4K camera! Heck, very recently it was normal for HD recorders to sell for that or more!!
  5. Although hey, in return I'll share this cheap Lectrosonics pair which is about to end: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lectrosonics-UCR201UM200C-Wireless-Professional-Microphone/202209140782? Bet a person could get this for the no reserve price. (note: it is block 26, this is fine for me, but might not be so for your city, so check first)
  6. Yup, am watching it already but taxes and shipping would kill it for me :-/ Also, ssssssshhhhhhh....... don't post links here! ;-) Sharing it will lift the price too high! :-P
  7. "Gaffer tape" is the answer to any question asked ever. Edit: Ok, I might take this a little more seriously and give a longer answer: If the gaffer tape over the opening end of the deadcat doesn't keep it firmly in place to stop the deadcat slipping around, then try putting a few (3? 5?) O rings along the length of the VMP before pulling on the deadcat, this could increase the apparent diameter of the mic within the deadcat leading to a firm fit.
  8. They'll hold time accurately down to the frame all day long from start to finish! Very very accurate, that is the entire point of time code boxes. Your recorder is TC capable, you should for sure get some time code boxes! Sub $1K feels very cheap to me? https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_ItemCondition=3000&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&_nkw=atomos+shogun&_sop=15 Even sub $700!
  9. Eh, the price is fairly competitive alongside other 4K monitor/recorders?!

    NX2 rumors

    True point @Trek of Joy! Was just reading about how the Women's Ice Hokey team is is a combined North/South Korean team! Which is nice.
  11. Unfortunately YouTube is turning pretty bad. Google ditched their "Don't Be Evil" motto a long time ago :-(
  12. Or Tentacle Syncs, seeing as they're so dirt cheap now (or even cheaper secondhand the older model): https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1372226-REG/tentacle_sync_te2_sync_e_standard_set.html Or my personal favorite, Ultrasync ONE: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1336977-REG/timecode_systems_tcb_ultrasyncone_ultrasync_one_timecode_sync.html Which recorder do you use? (with what mics?) Ah true, I forgot for a moment my BMPCC needs the "cheaper" Extreme Pro cards (back in the day they were the most expensive version!!). Well, a secondhand Atomos Shogun is very cheap now, get that and load it up with cheap and huge SSD drives :-D
  13. Sadly there is only the Video Devices (same company as Sound Devices) PIX-E5 Which lacks features the competition has, such as FS raw

    NX2 rumors

    Unfortunately, I predict that due to Samsung "abandoning" NX system in the past, that IF they released a NX2 in the future it would get less market traction than the NX1 did :-( What about those in the middle ground between the two? :-D I've never owned a NX1, but I do own another NX system camera (sitting right here next to me as I type! Closest camera to me at the moment, only because the BMPCC is on the other side of the desk. Oh wait, does the iPhone on charge count instead as the 2nd closest camera? :-P ), because I got it cheap on eBay as a potential future B cam to the NX1 which I was seriously considering buying as my next "main camera".
  15. Was not unusual for C300mk1 owners to be shooting with adapted Nikon lenses, and the original C300mk1 didn't initially have DPAF I though there was a third party or two who made one, one of those chinese brands
  16. Check out the drop in my dogecoin: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dogecoin/ Ouch That wasn't the original GoPro
  17. Heh, not saying it is, but just prodding other people to share their thoughts too ;-) As half considering one myself....
  18. Yeah, I know of a guy here in New Zealand who made a feature film with a NX1
  19. The $75 B4 lenses however would be SD quality, not HD lenses SD cards are super crazy cheap now in 2018: Microcenter in the USA is having a sale on 128GB SanDisk SanDisk Extreme Pro SDXC UHS-1 U3 Class10 for only $35 http://www.microcenter.com/product/482383/SanDisk_Extreme_Pro_SDXC_UHS-1_128GB Man I remember spending a small fortune on Extreme Pro 64GB cards for my BMPCC, so dirt cheap now for you lucky Americans!
  20. Noooooooo..... another one withuot a mic input :-(
  21. I'm trying to burn up your bandwidth by having to download extra characters on the webpage. No idea, it was just a wild thought I had.
  22. Camera Store TV thinks it is crap? Perfect! Now if everyone else in this thread can shut up about how good it might be, and instead go on about surely how total shit this camera must be, then @Mattias Burling will be certain to come along and review this camera with lots of reasons to convince us why it is an awesome camera! ;-) The last missing part of the jigsaw! I'd take a Pentax 645Z in a heart beat if offered at the right price! (already own the original Pentax 645)
  23. What the hell, for a RED ONE M? (not MX)? Good grief. I haven't seen it quite that low anywhere yet. $2K yes, but not sub $1K! Is nice, I watched this first over on reduser when it was shared
