slightly off topic, but i just bought a bunch of these (and all of them work?!) from amazon super cheap, uses all kinds of batteries including sonys and AAs, [somewhat] dimmable, gelable, lousy build quality but so lightweight you can tape them to anything, and hey theyre borderline disposable at $30~! i just needed a bunch of rim lights for an outdoor shoot i did recently, and amazingly, they worked out great~! everyone got a kick out of the box lol good to kno about the grip!!

could you post an example? i suspect that this is a subjective difference in opinion

i was banned from czwfans

v impressed but this. super analogue-y. excellent motion cadencemo disturbing how much i like this so goth

this is good feedback. i say: great, youre keeping the 5d3, definitely try magic lantern raw like these guys said if you havent before. see if youre as blown away by the naturalism and color as people like me are, and if not, all good, shoot video with a highly capable a7s~! i appreciate cost being an issue, so why not get that used a7s, spend time with it and see how you like it, and if you love it you could sell it and put that $ towards an a7sii in the near future~! who knows, after you use the a7s, you might not even be in a hurry to upgrade

i like all your ideas. after some contemplation, i would say that ecstasy isnt particularly visual, but its something you feel very deeply, in an emotional and moreover physical way, and so an aural approach to this sounds good to me (sounds lol) im not suggesting that the visuals shouldnt get "trippy", cuz they should, but id really play with the sound design as far as deeeep resonant sounds, where you can feel the vibrations through a good sound system. p much try to make a $400 pair of beats headphones explode lol visually, i like where youre going like i said, my thought there is that if it was my piece id experiment with after effects to create a bit off a buzz, a vibration, focused around the focal point of the shots, particularly intense when people are speaking... something fairly subtle, but a visual effect that gives a sense of vibration... a pulsing, humming... buzz. hmm im at a loss for adjectives atm but hopefully that makes some sense??

Hi Rand!!! omg just to be clear those comments totally werent directed to you at all~!!! just the first one im with you 100%!!!! when i was brand new to this and i was like LUTs what are LUTs? i was confused by reading stuff where users would refer to luts as a thing like an instagram filter that just colors your dslr footage - not that theres anything wrong with that lol - versus a log conversion process that is of course very different. confusing if all this is new to you! thats what i was talkin about in goth news i just finished a new fine art piece thats basically a four foot tombstone with my name on it. it came out p good!!! its not 100% done actually but the couple people who have seen it both said "Beetlejuice!" and thats totally what i was going for so thats great. anyway it was raining outside so i had to bring it indoors and its next to me towering over my bed right now in my room and its goth af lolol

i like how you mentioned sound bc thats huge, id really go deep with that have you ever been on ecstasy? do you want more specific feedback? i dont mind saying: the only benefit of surviving a life of drug addiction is that you can SPEAK ON SHIT LIKE THIS i have NEVER seen a film about heroin addiction that depicts that experience at all realistically smh. but, ykno, trainspotting was based on someone elses book etc etc

Hi Rand!!!! do we have a new goth?? hi???? yeah so, i feel like for new readers there could be some confusion after perusing this thread regarding the dichotomy between a discussion of subjective color grading, "looks" if you will, and the potential for pleasing color from the new a7sii [using slog3]. two totally different things, for the uninitiated also ~ a lot of these lut looks are reductive in nature in terms of color; fewer, flatter colors, which in my experience is definitely the case natively with slog2&3 relatively speaking, so the two have really gotten along swimmingly since the a7s blew up. not saying thats good or bad, thats another discussion that being said, im gonna take a positive stance on the new a7sii slog3 footage and say that it looks ~WAY~ better than slog2 from the a7s

YES!!!!! this thread is on fiyaaa RIGHT!!!!! imagine this: a civilization advanced enough to harness the power of a star. how smart are THEY? hopefully theyre nice, i wasnt very nice to the ants that invaded my kitchen recently if theyre anything like us that is definitely true lol i think people can handle the news now but undoubtedly not in the past. if i was president during the height of the cold war and a ufo crashed on the white house lawn id have a press conference where id march out my press secretary wearing a ridiculous alien costume to mock the whole thing and id call it a weather balloon and be done with it

WOW. wth 100% agree same same same!!!

THANK YOU FOR UNDERSCORING THE IRONY OF MY POLL AGOLEX

For those unfamiliar with the recent revelations surrounding KIC 8462852, here's everyone's favorite theoretical physicist Michio Kaku to explain... So, as the poll question states, IS THIS ALIENS? Or not? We may find an answer with a high degree of certainty in a matter of weeks

~subscribed! 2.5k for 1080p on youtube i like it yeah this is a rad camera. my friend has one, got to use it for a bit – loved the build quality, just fit in my hand really really well, surprisingly lightweight tho? and super for stills anyway the bitrate vs results makes zero sense what the heck is going on there lol also, @Mattias Burling - this is crazy~! wow??!?

thanks for sharing your experiences oliver. im on the same page true story... ::sigh:: its p disappointing... and i never go above 800 iso, learned not to quickly or the lens honestly when i first started using the cam i had this subconscious thought that i didnt rlly wanna acknowledge and tried to bury that was like 'Hope i can sell this thing before the lens or lcd breaks' of and fwiw ive been using rec709 for gamut w slog2 and custom settings... i fought with pp7 quite a bit and finally gave up. wish i had some awesome insight on slog2 color but sadly i do not smh

this is a country song guys

good to hear! would someone be kind enough to post/link to examples?

interesting follow up from stu foxconn? ive heard that name before lol.... http://prolost.com/blog/lightvisit

i kno rite?! so cool. the tech has come so far its crazy... i used to think of "lighting" as being virtually synonymous with heavy fussy stuff that gets really hot and can be legitimately dangerous. just the fact that these things wont burn someones finger off is still awesome to me lol yeah like me wth this is AWESOME~!!! something like this is def going in my dream art studio one day

what do you guys think about flexible LEDs like this? i like how theyre all bendy and u can roll em up and stick em anywhere no idea what im talking about here just wondering if flexible leds suck for some reason lol

awesome!!! great to hear andrew, glad youre well

you guys are boycotting apple too right

quoted in hopes that this will reach you nokker! i wanna learn more too! ive only run through these settings once to do a quick comparison with my note 5. ive gotten the most usable image information with the flat profile type on dark + light, the flat profile intensity on medium ('high' seemed to give the same image after post, harder to monitor on screen), and the noise reduction set to normal ꜛ hmm interesting, on my note 5 i havent gotten noticeably better results with the flat profile intensity set to high vs medium, 'high' seems like the same image with the contrast pushed down even more, have you liked the results of 'high' better? ill have to check out Cameringo~! has anyone else had a chance to use the cinema 4k app more? any thoughts/tips/tricks?

i have a friend who used to work for sony who might be interested i have no idea but i could ask him. a bit more info about your project would help if youd like me to do so what was your doc shot on? whats your vision of the grade? etc.
