Skip the Ninja 2 completely, as its screen is so outright sh*t. The little tiny extra cost for a Samurai/Ninja Blade or BMD VA is totally worth it.

If using a focal reducer just use the next step up in sensor size coverage at a minimum Thus if using a focal reducer use FX lenses on APS-C sensor Or DX lenses on MFT sensors if using a focal reducer But yes, if just using a straight adapter then a DX lens will be fine on an A6300

BMCC EF is a no no due to the hefty crop. Skip the BMCC MFT in favor of the BMMCC which is a lighter form factor and gives you 60fps slow motion

As you rarely shoot raw, you thus are not taking advantage of the 2.5K that the BMCC can do anyway. As in ProRes the BMCC can do at max 1080, so by switching to a BMMCC you'd gain a more friendly small sized *AND* gain 1080 60fps, a double win!

Don't get the A7.... only go for one of A7s mk1 / A7r mk2 / A7s mk2

Worth quoting the comment from that latest Vimeo video shared:

Good take on it spencer6891! Would like to get an A6300 one day as a B cam to my Sony PMW-F3 (but in no rush, will wait wait and see what the A5300 offers. If it does s-log 4K ok then I reckon the A5300 will be an even better value option, just like the A5100 vs A600 was) http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr2-first-a5xxx-spec-rumors/

Wow, an amazing gift for your kids and their kids to appreciate!

I imagine it restricted you to mostly just doing tripod shots? And not much focus pulling during shots. Now you have 6x 4K cameras you've got the perfect start to making a 360 degree rig!! :D

I haven't done internal cabling with it yet. My plan is instead to get a wireless XLR plug in once the Saramonic UwMic10 XLR plug in transmitter starts to ship. But I haven't be often using it, is great, very lightweight! Going to later this year buy the Came TV boom pole as well, so I've got an even longer ball, and to act as a 2nd back up pole to my main Miloboo pole. http://www.came-tv.com/cametv-carbon-fiber-microphone-boom-stand-5-meters-164ft-p-739.html

They're both an HD camera, I'd go with C100 mk1 secondhand at the cheapest price you can find, as once you get up to the level of C100 mk2 band new pricing it becomes hard to argue against spending even more to get a Sony FS5 instead.

Ah I see, you used "just" 3 cameras for most shots. That makes much more sense. As I'd struggle to see how it makes sense to use six for most shots!

Sadly no... Otherwise I'd buy one! The big upgrade via firmware that the A6000 got is XAVC-S

Ohhh..... well we do at least have in common the view that the kiwi bird looks cool! :D

Jello party... does that mean there will be girls in bikini there? Sign me up then!

I always use my F3 with the external monitor for its features, thus always getting 10bit 422 as well As for ergonomics... that can be very subjective, depends on what the person is looking for. I think the ergonomics of the F3 is rather good, I certainly prefer its ergonomics to cameras such as the C300 or BMCC.

Yeah is a damn pity the Nyrius Pro went up in price! Nyrius Prime is similar in price but much worse range than the Nyrius Pro

I really really wish the X70 had the same 23mm f2 lens as the X100 series of cameras instead of the wider and slower 18.5mm f2.8 As the faster f2 would be really nice, and 23mm is much more usable as a general purpose lens than 18.5mm is :-/

RX 100 IV / RX10 mk2 / X70 / AX100 would be my top votes for you to consider. Many mirrorless cameras would be good choices too, but sounds like you're a much more casual shooter, so I'd recommend one of the ones I just mentioned above as suiting you better

Wow, wow, WOW!! Why did you shoot a feature film with so many cameras at once?? :-o ***SIX***?? I could under stand as many as 3 easily enough, maaaaaaybe even having four, but it boggles my mind as to how come I'd need 6 to shoot a feature?? Was it a documentary perhaps???

A radical but not so crazy idea.... as you're already using FujiFilm for all your stills, why not for your video too? :D As wait a little while and see how this turns out, it seems it might just maybe be quite awesome:

@DaveAltizer, I just noticed your profile pic is of a Kiwi! :D Are you a NZer too? Let me know when you're next in Auckland and we'll have a beer/coffee!

Just got an email from my local major chain of computer stores about this interesting looking device (is going to be going on sale for only NZ$309+gst, or about US$200ish): http://www.pbtech.co.nz/index.php?z=p&p=KVMATN0809&utm_source=WatchListenPlay0708&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Retail&utm_content=0709_watch-listen-play-A_37&qr=ec_0709_watch-listen-play-A_37 https://www.amazon.com/Aten-VE809-HDMI-Wireless-Extender/dp/B00B7FSDLA Is meant to do 1080 at up to 30m! Can be DC powered (and even USB powered perhaps?). http://www.aten.com/global/en/products/professional-audiovideo/wireless/ve809/#.V38x0bh97RY

Niiiiice dynamic range in this raw stills http://petapixel.com/2016/07/07/fuji-x-t2-raw-files-crazy-dynamic-range/

Now even FujiFilm (the brand for a hipster's purest photography) of all people have got an affordable 4K camera!!!! Says an awful lot when even FujiFilm is beating Canon in the filmmaking stakes.
