Wow, that price let´s you rent an original Easyrig for a few days. Interested in seeing more tests.

Thank you! Yes, it´s a great classic. I wonder, if the GH3 would add anything due to its newer sensor and the 50mbit codec. Might be worth it to give it a try

Hallo friends, now here are the photos of my camera. I already revealed my choice in this awesome thread: the semilegendary Lumix G6 and the Fujinon 12.5mm 14. C-mount lens. Beautiful lens and awesome to hold with the G6. It does not quiet cover the whole sensor in 16 to 9, of course. I also used the 2x digizoom to really feel free from worries and creative limits. I think this setup is perfect for cinema verité pieces. Also, it was so enjoyable to realize camera movements without in body or lens stabilization, such a gratifying feeling. I think shooting 8bit 420 and with a rather slim codec was giving me some special kind of concentration during filming. A camera like the G6 or others put the focus on filming rather than to have to worry about battery life or 14 stops of DR. Handling is great and image feels very dear and unique to me. In 2x digizoom it felt like the readout was much faster. I was able to pull off some very steady camera movements. A bit of stabilization in post and sastisfied. Camera movement felt much more immediate than doing it with IBIS or in lens stabilization. Filming was done alot with 7000K in Vivid picture profile with contrast with everyting to -2. Grading and edit in Davinici. Like all of us I enjoyed filming and the results a very big deal and the write ups and crazy camera setups as well. Such a fun challenge and awesome two days of filming and editing! Let´s do it again, guys! Next challenge ahead with great anticipation and exitement!

@shijan Pretty as heck! That smallrig cage is the one and only version? Asking to make sure everything fits with your products onto the right cage. Wouldnt want to buy the wrong cage. Nor the wrong camera:)

@IronFilmWow, insane! Shipping to Europe comes with customs and tax, unfortunately. Never know how high they estimate value at customs. Friend of mine bought a used macbook motherboard for 120eu on Ebay US and had to pay 40eu taxes and customs! I got a question about Slog. Does the F3 have it from the start on? Found an auction where seller states, it´s without SLOG. From what I know, there are versions with 10bit 422 output and SLog, just without 444 output. So 422 SLOG 10bit would already plenty. It´s really weird, I bought a FS700, didnt get around to buy a lens adapter and to film something with it, rather hunting for low Shogun and Inferno prices. And, though looking out for that F3. Weird indeed.:) How could you!:)

Just coming from the 444 F3 hack thread:) See the similarities, my friend? Another camera I am keen on holding in my hands. Vintage lovers, vintage vine, vintage cameras, vintage film. It would be THE perfect digital super8 camera! Would love to have one and film with it! You must feel me as a camera lover! I mean you are the greatest supporter of the beautiful F3 after all. Now, that 300USD in the auction you posted in another thread, insane! Too bad as European they make as pay custom fee and tax as it would be a brand new item somehow, so might double the price. @tktagmedia Congratulations again and good luck with your Andromeda beauty! Did you get it to work rather flawlessly? Looking forward to seeing some footage and pictures of your setup. You wrote, you have two of them now? You lucky!:) Are both of them working?

The G9 has only low bitrates in HD. Maybe now it has legit 100mbit in HD. Cheapest Lumix with 100 and 200mbit would be the GH4. Did anyone have the opportunity to test the 100mbit on the GX9? How did it turn out? Would be great to film something in rather rash conditons and compare, doing a stress test in grading.

Oh, and thanks to my friend Glenn @mercer for "making me" get this lens. This lens has given so much joy like no other one has before. And images to see and to film! Thank you, my friend for this and for so much more. See you in the next Eoshd filming rally! best, Marty

Hallo, congratulations to all filmmakers and to your great films! Thank you all who voted for my film. @Nordee, very beautiful film and images you created and edited. It was one of my favorite pieces, with visual grace, taste and soul. Please keep your camera! By any means! I filmed with a semi classic, one of my favorite personal cameras, the Lumix G6. I bought it four years ago with the classic 14-45mm lens for 240EU. Nowadays you can buy the body for 100eu on ebay! Once graded in Davinci Resolve, I like their 709 image better than from the much more recent G7 and even GH5 cameras. My lens was the beautiful Fuji 12.5mm f1.4 C-mount lens, which I bought some time ago for 40 EU. My approach was semidocumentary, with half a handful shots staged. The cat didnt bother the lighting, of course, because it was of the tungsten kind, WB all way up to 9000K I think. I used the 2x digital zoom a good deal to give me two focal lenghts in one. The aliasing was a fair tradeoff for convinience and immediacy of filming. I graded and edited in Davinci Resolve, with some stabilization and noise reduction. I feel a bit euphoric now and also a bit honoured! So, thanks everyone! Oh, thanks Andrew, for "making" me buy this camera.:) Shots of my setup to come of course, when I´m home. best, Marty

Hallo, does that mean, you own a G9? If so, wouldnt you just love to test out BTM_Pix' tool and check for some GH5 capabilities? 100mbit HD is all I am asking for. 10bit, too much to ask for, I think.:)

I am laughing, because a friend of mine and I are sitting over an edit and Premiere is giving us such a hard time with reconnecting, relocating files. I personally enjoy Resolve for its workflow and straightforwardness. Free version does not have most of the openFX like grain nor noise reduction, does not read some codecs such as the 10bit from the GH5. Needs a graphics card with cuda or open cl support from nvidia or amd.

awesome thread. always lovely, this tasty little threads for the small cameras and underdog lenses with the big screen image. thank you for posting, great reads you linked here! i think bmmcc shooters are like olympus xa photogs, admirerers of the tech, craft and art. their images express that thrill with exiting results. Wow, I always believed it had full HDMI. So I second that question.

voted.

They will be smarter than we are, if that really happens, meaning, we as general people would have been not that smart at all.

@Артем Your file has a 60p framerate and around 100mpbs. Cool. You take it very easy on your achievment and Артемs findings as well:) 100mbit with ibis and gh5 sensor has been a gh5 feature only for a mft lumix cam. Makes it quiet attractive. Would love to see a lowlight comparison between 100 and 28mbit modes. This sounds like AWESOME news! On the GX85 no such 100mbit HD mode hidden, right? cheers

My friend, it took you one year after I started this beautiful thread to ask me that question. I love the idea of 3ccd 10bit raw with a beautiful stabilized zoom lens and the classic ergos of this camera. So, cannot wait to see what shortfilms @tktagmedia is gonna shoot with it. I already loved the SD DV cam DX1 from Panny, 3 ccd beauty in colors but interlaced and DV compression. So call me anyone.:) No, Cine, you and me are already two, if I may suggest, that´s what you are talking about.:) the dvx is fully capable of 24p output. Never had one, but that´s what this cam was famous for back then. David Lynch shot Inland Empire with it I think. Now, render that beautiful footage of yours, please.:) You got the only legit digital super8 camera in your hands!

S35 + Lucas Speedbooster would make the 6k a "full frame" cine camera.:)

Insane, could you record a little clip in HD 28mbps and in 100mbps and compare file size? That would be super cool! HLG, wow!

Hold it, my friend, do I see HD 50p with 100mbit? That would be awesome, if truly working!

Hallo Andrew, wow, that is super cool! Best site to show my shortfilm!!! I will try to embedd and will send you a PM, so I don´t bloat this awesome thread. cheers

@IronFilm you were close, up the scale though. OG Shogun, how much would you pay? @BTM_Pix With the raw package it would be perfect!

And you are too humble to give it a try, avoiding even more gratitude of this community and beyond. No, seriously, I would not like to come across as too persistent. Anyhow..

not that super nice to say but too funny!

thanks for the question! I second it. Also, how is the 2.5k quality, bitrate and codec quality for grading? love the robust panasonic codecs. the 8bit 100mbit hd codec of the gh4 is really cool. interested, if nx500 would offer this, paired with an awesome readout speed, tiny rolling shutter. give me gh3 quality with a 7ms readout. Thank you!

@Anaconda_ beautiful shot and colors! would love to see that video. @Alex T beautiful stuff, you make your topics and subjects shine! the slomo is 48p mode in ML RAW? Love this thread! One of my favorites. Lots of examples of classic and classy camera work here, not even to speak of the beautiful RAW magic and the thrill of the hack.
