    Canon XA50

    Yeah but a C100, C300 has had DPAF forever.

  3. Yeah the C200 is down to 6400 bucks now on ebay. Pretty good price for new and what you get. But if you Need the middle Codec then you are kind of screwed unless you buy a Atomos lol.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Canon-EOS-C200-Cinema-Camera-2215C002-Lens-Cleaning-Kit/323606537783?epid=14012373817&hash=item4b5873e637%3Ag%3Ao54AAOSwsRVcGNpr&LH_BIN=1 Dave did this comparison a couple of years ago. Kind of interesting. Although he may be Color Blind lol. ?

    Canon XA50

    No DPAF, even on the XC15 is a bummer though. Why the hell would you put DPAF on the M50 and not on the XC15 lol. Crazy company.
  5. I don't know the 1DC has a hell of a good bit rate for a camera. Well actually for storage it is terrible but.. It is possible the 1Dx mk II could match it I guess. But way out of my price range. I admit maybe a Fuji X-T3 might do it? But for as old as they are the Canon sure is special. Canon was on a roll back then if you had the money to buy what they had. They were leaders than, not so much now.
  6. Just go out and buy a old Canon 1DC and a box of C Fast cards lol. They are getting pretty cheap. Probably all I would need. I still can't get out of my head this frame grab someone posted on here from one.
  7. I would be afraid of buying the C300 mk II now that Maybe a C100 mk III is due. But the 300 would be nice now with the 200 screen. Man big boy video is not cheap even now. But not many Cine cameras have AF so you pay the price.

    Canon XA50

    Yeah 8 bit and weak Codecs, not counting a left handed joystick, 80% DPAF coverage for that money, hmm. I guess it is nice to have a pick it up and go form factor but.. The Sony PXW-Z90V 4K HDR XDCAM does 10bit 4.2.2. Seems a better deal to me. I don't need 4K, so a Canon C100 mk II or a C300 seems more my style for nearly the same money. It depends what you are going to use it for though for sure.
  9. Yeah but right now if you own multiable camera company cameras, and want a somewhat one stop solution with editing, and own Apple computers, you are going with Apple ProRes Raw. And that is the good thing about it over anyone else as of now. It's Only been out for a little over a year.
  10. Weddings are so predictable on what they do it's crazy. I would think it would be easy to do AI on them on average. We are just at the tip of the iceberg on this stuff. Wait till Robots build Robots. Then you better grab your ass. What we can dream up is nothing compared to what AI can dream up.
  11. FedEx must think it's a good idea. One of the biggest company's in the world. 450,000 employees. Imagine getting rid of just 25% of them overall cost savings. https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/smart-cities-delivery-robots/?utm_source=sendgrid&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-brief
  12. Well one big advantage of ProRes Raw is that it can be used on a lot of cameras versus the Canon Raw Light is never going to be a industry standard like Apple ProRes Raw will. Plus the file sizes are smaller also. I mean if you have a Canon C200 sure you are probably going to use it's Raw but.. Good video on ProRes Raw. https://www.proav.co.uk/videos/prores-raw-exciting/ Some good pictures of the C300 mk II with the new touchscreen. Wow it sure makes it a LOT more compact. You had to be 7 foot tall to shoot with one on a tripod lol. https://www.newsshooter.com/2019/01/07/canon-c300-mark-ii-now-available-with-the-c200-touch-screen/
  13. YouTube is the new Vaudeville of the 21st Century for a lot of the "Presenters". Everyone hopes to make a buck, why not. And it is a conglomeration of everything under the sun. Sort of a Mistral show on Steroids.
  14. Wow that is just embarrassing to be honest. How can you be that bad in this day and age?
  15. Well I am not saying I am going to die tomorrow, but I sure got a lot of ways to accomplish it I never knew, well might have guessed, that can happen. My sheet of what is wrong with me at my Doctor is getting pretty long as of late LoL. Lot of stuff I can't even pronounce, and don't dare to even want to look it up on Wiki! ?
  16. I am telling you it is starting to get scary for more than one reason at 72. I am now on about the 4th thing to go LoL. ?
  17. Your starting to show your age. At least you are still funny.
  18. Quit acting your age. God I am probably older than you are and you are coming off acting like some old geezer in a rest home. Good or bad YouTube is what it is. It is a reflection of society as a whole in this time on earth. If you don't like what you see go to ones you like. These channels would not be popular if everyone hated them. Apparently tons of people Do like them. Seems the crazier they are the more popular. Our parents probably thought the end was near when we were young. Life will go on whether we are a grumpy ass or not. Downvoted, what a silly ass Girly act. That option should not even be available on here. Get real. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
  19. We are Easily replaced by AI Robots as we are creatures of habit. So we are predictable as hell, so easily copied. And a lot more of our jobs are more repetitive than we imagine in a period of a lifetime. Also easy to copy. Our Goose is cooked down the road. I just seen a few weeks ago a short story about one of the Auto Plants, I don't remember where, like Michigan I guess where there where only like 325 people workers in it. The rest of the operations were Automated. That is like a1/10 of what they used to have people wise when I was young. There were Robots doing stuff as far as the eye could see. Probably a 1/3 of the people there worked in the Restrooms for the other people when they shit it up lol, and another 1/3 to drive the cars outside and park them, and the other 1/3 programming, repairing the Robots probably. The other 10 people were Bosses I guess. It is some scary stuff long term.
  20. Yeah you can only cram so much stuff on a sensor. The smaller the stuff the more you can do.
  21. Well some of these people do a video a day, and I would imagine it would be pretty hard to come up with decent content day after day unless you worked in a Emergency Room or the like lol. Even then it would be too gory to watch every day.
  22. Well I guess poorer, less educated people are Always eagerly willing to listen to some dumbass to make them all rich. Elizabeth Warren in this country running for presidential office is a great example. Talk about a shit stirrer.
  23. Ergo, why Tyrants rise to the top. There is Always some shit stirring person that fires up the Masses.
  24. Oh I agree a lot with your original post, but not many are going to go by you suggestions. Yeah if a lot of people just polished it a bit it would be a huge plus. But some people don't fair well on live TV, I would not I think, so a lot of dumb mistakes are presented. But you also have to figure most people doing it are pretty young, and as we did at the same age, we thought we knew everything, when in reality we also were dumb as hell lol. Innocent little Lambs. Sad to say at my age I think I am regressing! I will become a Dumb Black Sheep, or tits up. Probably both at the end. ?
  25. Well the Canon 300nm process versus the Sony 90nm process is what is pretty telling to me. That is pretty far behind the curve in this day and age. Canon must spend about 50 Dollars a year upgrading their Fab plants. Their big problem is Sony, selling their sensors to everyone, has Tons of money to modernize their Fab Plants.
