@Anaconda_ DUDE!! THIS WAS AWESOME!! It felt like a TV show. Really amazing! I will say, YouTube is a totally different type of medium and needs to be treated as such. The format and layout are totally different than TV or Movies. All I would add to this video is a call to action at the end if doing this more often is something you want to do. I disagree with @fuzzynormal The length was great! You have to remember, youtube's motive is to keep people on their site as long as possible, so if you can create engaging content and keep peoples watch time up, then you will win. The film never got boring or stagnant. I loved all of it. Don't change it and make another one! Just bang it out. ALSO, side note, I'm thinking of picking up the new Canon XF400 for YouTube. This video really made me love the camcorder look that you can get using a good camera.

@markr041 I’m shooting a review with the RX0 as we speak. I’m aware of other competition. But when you review a new iPhone, you compare it to the previous version. That’s all. Gopros vs Gopros. I’m sure YI is great but that’s not what most people care about. I’m trying to get views and clicks and people overall don’t care about Yi as much as GoPro. Just like people who use iPhone typically don’t care about android as much.

IS and color science alone justify the hero6

Finally got to play with this! First test with a6300. REALLY love this. Restores hope in the Sony platform. Great work andrew!

I just got my GoPro Hero 6 vs 5 comparison video finished! I shot the non GoPro stuff with my 80D using the EOSHD Cinema 4 profile! No color grading at all.

Sony and Canon just don’t mix. Wouldn’t recommend it.

I agree with all that but we don’t have any real clue on when it’ll come out. NAB 2018 makes sense. Or CES 2018. Idk

Prediction is a7S iii at NAB 2018

I have 1DC and 80D with EOSHD CLOG and it’s a great B Cam with 1080 60p plus the AF is great

I think I’m selling my 80D for Youtube and going to switch to the GX10! https://***URL not allowed***/canon-xf405-review-sample-footage-and-first-impressions/

I didn’t realize Resolve had a pixel fixer! Cool! I edit in FCPX and it doesn’t like MJPEG. Plus ProRes LT is slightly smaller file size so I don’t mind it. I like converting to ProRes LT because when I hand off files to people I work with, they all seem to really like how it looks and plays back.

I had a pixel issue but then it went away.

Edit Ready 2.0 is best. I’ve also just imported MJPG footage straight into FCPX and turned on “convert to proxy” and just edit using proxy files. But still my computer gets jumpy doing that when I switch back to “original” codec.

I think this thread is getting off topic. Let's rain it back into a7s 3 talk. Looks like Sony Alpha Rumors was off these last few times, but we should see something Oct. 25th. https://www.sonyalpharumors.com/fool-a7iii-fool-twice-a7siii-will-not-fool-now/

I have had mine for over a year now, and rented it back when it first came out for a documentary in haiti. I had to get insurance because it was so expensive at the time. Crazy how things change. I think there is a lot to talk about with it. The Super35 mode is great for when you just need quick and easy, and the 4k on it is better than any of the other 4k dslrs from canon.

Nothing in print, but at NAB this year I spoke directly with a Panasonic rep who gave me some juicy stuff. I recall him saying this to me: “Most years when all of the reps bump into eachother on the airplane or at the airport the Canon and Nikon guys act as if they are the elite and look down on us (Panasonic reps). This year (2017) is the first year that they told me that we along with Sony are eating their lunch when it comes to video and mirrorless and Canon corporate has taken notice.” Also, I remember when I was at NAB was when Casey Neistat announced that he was shooting his vlogs on the GH5. The Panasonic rep told me that the amazon orders went up 20% within those 24hrs when Casey announced that.

Well said @Andrew Reid unbelievable that the 1dc was $12,000.

@Ollywood88 yes. I use edit ready 2.0 to transcode everything to ProRes LT. For fancy projects I do just standard 422. I edit on a base model MacBook Pro 13” so I usually start the transcode at night and wake up with it finished. @Ty Harper I used to shoot 5d3 raw but it’s been several years so I don’t think I can speak to it. You’d want to I guess go from BMD film to Canon Log LUT or something in resolve. That’s what I would try. Or just use film convert. I’ll make some extensive 1DC reviews for you guys. It’ll be fun.

1dc 1080p 60 is not good. Super soft

Oh no it doesn’t go on the focus monitor. The Zacuto z finder goes on the camera LCD the kinotechnik LCDVF3C is the best deal and best quality. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/887720-REG

Soooo here’s my experience. I actually own the gratical but I don’t like using it with the 1DC. I bought a loop for the screen and it’s SO much better. You can have a rode mic on screen and the way you hold the camera along with holding the lens for focus. So I recommend the focus monitor, and the Zacuto Z Finder type of thing. I bought a cheap off brand one and it works well. Side note, I haven’t seen anyone really talk about this camera much recently. It was a forgotten camera really. Much like the Digital Bolex. Would you or anyone else on this forum like to see a thorough 1DC review/ tutorial?

Screw the DP4. Seriously. Focus is where it’s at. So intuitive and super bright. I use it daily on my 1DC for YouTube videos and it’s dabomb.com

I own 1DC and have been considering selling and going 5D IV with Canon Log. The crop and lack of the great super35 mode and the 30 minute cutoff on the 5div made me stick with 1DC

Depends on codec. Same here. I used a MacBook Air for over a year and FCPX worked great on it with 4k from compressed footage. My 1DC footage was not good. But gh4/ GH5 8 bit handles great

Just did an extensive review/ tutorial using the Anamorphic app! Had fun making this
