SRV1981

Great point, I don’t have the technical knowledge to know how to do it but I’d imagine there would be a creative way to do it

Looks great! Making the fx30 shine

Immature reasoning

So you run a forum and can just change the content of a thread because you dislike the source? What an odd culture

Give the 2-3 cameras to iPhone and a single 1” sensor for the iPhone pro

Ricoh GrIIIx

*as my sole

This is why I love using my iphone with log and sole my mirrorless 😜

Give me all your money for bad decisions and I’ll do a lot to help you liberate 🙂

I’d love to see a side by side supporting this argument. I don’t see much of a difference. Also, where are you displaying your photos? Psychology is pushing people to spend nearly $10k on a photo only camera. What’s the return on investment? What’s one’s annual income.

Who needs shallow DOF?

The sequel sucked. Plot armor galore. I saw it in the theaters. That said this thread is about the beauty of film from the 1980s/90s. And now I truly get what cinematic means again.

I don’t see an image improvement over a Ricoh or x100v

What a joke

So, I’m an amateur with zero training, but I saw the sequel and it was abysmal. Michael Keaton kept it alive for the duration but man the writing and PC culture behind it was bad. anyway, I’m watching the original and I’m BLOWN AWAY. The rich pastel colors, the detail combined with soft images etc, make the original so much more appealing than the sequel visually! Cinematic and filmic are real terms worth using daily. I can’t think of any digital image that rivals what I am seeing from the original Eastman film stock of Beetlejuice. id love to Get this pastel softness with deep colors and image on my log footage (iPhone and dlogm)

I may check beastgrip - I’m looking for an ND filter for the iPhone 16 but easy to use.

I’m an n=1 but I don’t know anyone with a dedicated camera

I found the article silly. There’s no data or stats to support this.

Do you really enjoy his Channel and analysis or is it confirmation bias

Fair points - I guess I’m liking the iPhone log over osmo in YT videos because that’s where I watch all videos that aren’t TV shows. Are there other platforms you’re posting videos on? If so, send a link and I’ll check it out. I love the pocket 3 as well and may invest in one but I have to say I do think comparing these images to a mirrorless body is certainly valuable and closer than what you’re saying in most conditions. All cameras sucked in lowlight prior to the a7S line and nobody seemed to think it an issue until then. I’d never argue, currently, that you folks who do this for a living should be using iPhones and osmos for work - but for your daily driver? Your family camera, your travel camera, your YouTube channel - yes the pocket 3 and iPhone log solutions are very good quality and desirable due to ease of use and ergonomics. At some point a 3rd party vendor or manufacturer of these products will be able to use larger sensors in these small products and combine it with attachments and software to rival mirrorless. Physics always wins so maybe it won’t eclipse mirrorless body sensors but man it’s getting so close to the human brain not being able to tell the difference to most observers and if you can be happy with it then that’s what matters most to me.

I’d be curious for you to watch the clip I shared and have you comment what about the pocket image you liked better. Ha - not sure what you mean exactly but I do think the iPhone log images are good enough for many situations as an A cam (holiday, non paid work) and a B or C cam in other scenarios. I don’t get paid to record video so it’s an easy solution for me and I’m interested in a pocket 3 but it feels redundant when I have log in my phone - turn on airplane mode if messages annoy you is my take. the tracking of the pocket makes it a good pairing on the other hand. We are so close to a point that photo and video will be good enjoying for the vast majority of situations.

May 6:30 I believe the iPhone is far superior to a pocket. Pocket wins with ease and portability while retaining a phone as a phone but image - iPhone
