Yes, i ordered one and will let you know. Question also is wether the 27mm pancake that is unavailable most of the time will be available as i believe everyone will want it for this camera...

True, X100 V did not have ibis though too. My question would also be wether there is a lightweight Gimbal available.

27mm …

Really interesting! Is it possible to put a moment anamorphic on that 28mm pancake?

I am not sure i understand what kind of movie you actually have in mind. I am with you that due to the recent streaming wars the market is oversaturated at the moment and this boom is over but on the other hand my watchlist is growing longer and longer with great films and series. And of course that's not the fault of the EOSHD Forum - but the forum has been a great documentation of the change that has happened in the recent years.

Back when i found out about this forum everybody wanted democratization of the filmmaking process (f.e.: 3K for 3K). And now we have that and we find out that the medium has become worthless and filmmakers are even more like musicians were. In my opinion it was much harder to reach mid level (f.e. shooting 35mm) back in the days, but easier to move from mid level to top level... Now it is easier to move from nothing to mid level. Overall i guess the amount of jobs and the overall money in the market has risen considerably since 2000.

I also went for the analogue route this summer. Feels so much nicer to have a 50D and a 150 Euro camera with a nifty fifty on the beach than thousands of euros of equiptment. Manual Focus though...

What's your opinion on the R?

Yes, that was actually my hope. 😅 Thanks for the input and the ideas!

Hello everyone! Check out this little musc video we shot on A74 with helios 44 and a 24mm Samyang Pancake. As the song builds up: if you do not have much time please jump to the third part of the video as that is the most energetic part. We shot three videos in 4 hours, so for this one we used approx 90 minutes. It was a lovely warm evening in Hamburg, something that is not happening very often. Nevertheless the song is really nice so i want to share it here. As always feedback and youtube comments are highly appreciated. P.S. still not loving Youtube compression.

Yeah, i was Yeah, i was hoping someone in the forum would have experience in either one or maybe come up with another idea...

Hi, as the technical side is becoming cheaper and cheaper i would love to get some insights wether anyone in this forum is actually making money with their creative endeavors: I am less interested in the typical booked gigs business (ranging from a one man army videogproduction to full blown DOP on features and commercials), but more in the realm of micro budget features, youtube, and other creative ideas... So everything that is kind of outside the typical system... Yes, i have just read "Rise of the Filmtrepreneur" by Alex Ferrari... 😉 Would love if anyone here would share their insights!

Yes, the streaming wars are over and at the moment the market is oversaturated with content. On the other hand there was always an up and down in the market - lots of people remenissing about " the glorious DVD years" (Indie film hustle podcast). Now is a great time for indie filmmakers to create their low budget projects.

Just remember the ultimate ADHD Film was shot on XHA1 https://youtu.be/t2koYVqwzT4?si=I-D4pVCKAktGxSWa
