His story sort of reminds me of this.

If you are young, I am too old to do it for a couple of reasons, too old too dig, too old to live long enough for them to grow, start planting Hanging Trees lol. You will need them down the road trust me. It is Only going to get worse.

Sorry, no way I am going to try to read all of that in it's present format. Appreciate the effort though.

You do know you are allowed to use Paragraphs. Novel concept. Looks like you Did pass typing.

There is no such thing as a Small Cine lens lol unless you are talking 8mm film stuff. PL Cine Lenses are humongous. https://cameraambassador.com/collections/lenses

Half the whole damn world has turned into a rip off, knockoff bunch of Whores. Never make me King I can tell you that. The over population problem would be solved quickly.

Oh I am talking about the MF Cine lenses. For FF buy the 4 T1.5 lenses. Add a really wide one later one. You don't want the AF ones. https://www.samyanglensglobal.com/en/product/product-srch.php?category=D&camera_type=&sensor_size=&lens_type=&mount=201&best_for=&f_category[]=D&mount[]=201

Oh my God did IronFilm Trim his beard and get a Haircut!! He looks well.....normal lol. Grats if true.

Yeah and buy it from the Apple store. Even more than half the ones that say they are Real Apple ones on eBay, Amazon are cheap knockoffs. Huge scam on those sites.

This be true. For video work they can't be beat overall for the money they cost. They are what most people really need. That and a few Pro Mist filters and you are set.

D is the best of the bunch.

Nah I think you are wrong a some of your points. Right now I don't even Have a camera at all, because my stuff got stolen. But you know what even if I had insurance for it, or even won the Lotto not sure I would even buy a real camera now. It was just so much of a hassle to try to take something compared to just reaching in my pocket and bamm, it done. Is it as good, no, but for the average person it is More than good enough. And the average person is who your going to show the footage to to boot, even if you own an Arri who really is going to see it? Heck maybe 4 people on here even post footage at times. Here in the States there is just about Zero camera stores left. Wal Mart, Best Buy have nothing but cheap, useless P&S cameras. Even the average person know their phone is just as good except for the silly 400x lens on the P&S. 10 years from now you might not be able to give away a real camera. I don't have a clue how camera manufactures are going to even be in business down the road. Sure a few super high end Cine cameras dedicated to Blockbuster Movies might be left, but that is like a 100 cameras a year to sell If you are lucky. 10 years from now there probably won't even be real Actors. So you might not even need ANY cameras for movies or even Soap Operas. All done in computer. Nah if I was Canon right now I would pick up my marbles and just go home. I really don't think there is a future for what you call real cameras down the road. Why bother fighting the inevitable. There is no money in it anymore. Phones have just flat killed cameras like it or not.

I think you are living in a dream world thinking the young are going to embrace Leica, MF cameras. Smartphones are what they grew up with. It fits their needs. Social media, YouTube is what they know. They don't need Cine cameras. They have what they need in their purse or pocket. They will get better and better, and Cine cameras will be less and less desirable. A Smartphone IS the ultimate Hybrid. For the masses it already has been. We are already Dinosaurs on here. Stick a fork in us, we are done.

You don't Really think Anything in Australia is going to be the same money that it is in the US do you? On paper it Ought to be cheaper since you are a stones throw from China, Japan. Nah they can't do that. You don't think the Vat Tax had anything to do with it. Nah.

Hmm that might be hard to say. I have to pick the C100.

The A6500 is so thin body wise you can barely hold it. I am surprised it doesn't overheat in 1080p. It is an amazingly small body.

Sure on your camera using ML. But what if you are shooting Slog2 on a OG A7s the min ISO is 3200 ISO. Sure don't need a f1.2 lens for that scenario. You might have to use f8 or higher if you forgot your variable ND filter lol. Yeah if you want the sharpest you can get you want to stop down a bit from wide open. All these Logs in camera in general use a pretty high ISO. Photo and Video even on the same cameras now is a whole different Kettle of Fish like they say lens wise.

Great song , really good camera work.

All these lenses are old and outdated for the most part. They have probably been dropped 50 times. You can't say one lens is better than another unless you have a damn near perfect copy. And what you like and I like is totally different. So why even bother with tests on old lenses. I am not a big fan of super shallow DoF anyways. And if I want to do that I prefer a Telephoto lens to do it over a 50mm. That look has been done a million times. I wouldn't give many dollars for an f1.2 lens in this day and age. I doubt the average person watching a movie or short is saying, Oh God look at the Bokeh. Everyone acts like you can Only shoot at ISO 64, or 100 yet. The native video ISO in most camera is way up at ISO 640 or more. I really doubt anyone on here is doing Glamour shots. Olan Millls went out of business a Long time ago for a reason.

Seems like a perfectly fine video to me. About as fair as you can get with what he had.

Ah, you Finally get it lol. Peace and Serenity. Butterflies and well...Hmm, flying pigs. ?

I don't think there is as much obsolescence as we think. I believe the big camera company's artificially make it Seem like what you have is "outdated". There isn't a camera made in the last 5 to 6 years that isn't fully capable of making amazing photos and video for anyone with a bit of skill and desire. There is hardly anyone that really has 4K TV's around the world. It is more hype than anything. Used stuff now is a total bargain if you are smart and pick the right ones. 99% useful for 99% of the people in the world.

You don't know much about politics then. Any radical change is suicide. They might know they are wrong, but money and power is stronger than common sense. That is why it is so screwed up now. And the trend now for young people wanting everything for free is Socialism. We see how well that has worked out around the world. A middle ground well sure. Not extremes. Every 4 to 8 years here in the USA the pengelium swings the complete opposite way. Republicans versus the Democrats. Sort of kept it in balance in the past. Now all I see is hatred toward the other side. No good end in the near future for that kind of belief. Radical beliefs lead to Very bad outcomes. In this day and age 3 to 4 top economies can change the entire world. Not like it was years ago. Everyone is vulnerable now. Times have changed, probably for the worse. Too little, too late now. The Oh My God moment was several years ago. To me the EU put a heck of a lot of countries in harms way more than they have helped them down the road.

Speaking of the S1. Rolling Shutter test. https://***URL not allowed***/panasonic-lumix-s1-rolling-shutter-test/

Oh trust me EVERYONE pays. It's all about the money. On ignore, I figured it out. Have a nice week.
