  1. I pretty much only use a 24mm 1.4 and a 50mm 1.4 for everything haha Definitely great! Would love a 10bit log nx1 mod
  2. That's a sweet deal 😎 I think the s1 will be a reliable and relevant camera for many years.
  3. Honestly, I bought the s1 used "like new" for $1600 earlier this month. It came with v-log too! If the new s5 is $2000 (assuming) new then I still think the s1 was a much better buy. I like big camera bodies and it's one of the reasons I got an s1, although a small reason, it still mattered to me. I wanted a tanky daily driver work horse of a camera! Something with great battery life, a bright screen, big body, good evf, So after thinking about the s5, it honestly doesn't really sound like the camera I wanted anyway, the s1 literally is the camera I wanted, so I'm happy with my purchase. I learned I'm able to return my s1 if i want but I'm choosing not too. 4k 60p 10bit is neat, but I hardly even care about 4k 60p, even then, 8bit 60p looks fantastic! I still think the s1 is the nicer more professional camera overall and its used prices are so good that it wins against the s5 when it comes to cost. Again, assuming the s5 will be $2000.
  4. Nope! This was shot like a few weeks after the NX1 released. It took a bit to finish because of all the VFX. Man do I wish I knew about the nx1 mod! (just did a quick search to see what you were talking about) This is the first im hearing of it! The NX1 isnt my main camera now but I still use it all the time, Will definitely put the mod on it!
  5. I've done everything from music videos, documentaries to short films. I've worked on features as well. Only used raw once, that was purely because I thought it was necessary but it turned out it wasnt. The workflow was not worth the hassle at the time. 8 bit 4k/1080 is still probably good for 90% of content creation needs, buuut if you can swing a 10bit 422 4k codec then that should be 100% usable for any job. Raw is cool, but overkill for most things.
  6. Yeah it was pretty difficult not gonna lie! I've since jumped full force into blender since the 2.8 update and it's been a truly amazing tool! Highly recommended for any filmmakers out there. Element 3D is great, but obviously its very limited in comparison and more designed for 3D motion graphics. BUT! It was the best beginner 3D tool out there at the time.
  7. If this is cheaper than the s1 then they really should add a firmware upgrade to the s1 to give it all the recording options like 4k animorphic 24p. 4k 60fps 10bit 420. And have VLOG be free. The Panasonic s1 isnt that old and as someone who literally went all in on an s1 last week specifically for video this announcement is kinda worrying me.. will the s1 suffer a price drop? Did I just get ripped off? Or depending on the new cameras price, will the s1 get an update to match specs? This is my first time using panasonic as I've switched over from sony so I'm not too sure how they handle these things as a company.
  8. It's actually really funny that you picked up on this. Originally when we started filming he wanted a playthrough style video with static shots, about halfway through the shoot I suggested maybe going a bit more artsy with it. So in fact half the time spent filming was dedicated to getting playthrough style shots. The black and White look was planned from the start, I did have a colored version graded just in case he wanted color. I appreciate the kind words and yes, he has some nice guitars
  9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXRCi6zxBFE I had one hour to shoot a quick music video, the A6300 did the trick. Let me know what you think
  10. thank you so much! I appreciate you sharing and checking out my other work I hope you enjoyed them! Means a lot and thank you everyone for watching!!! :D It really means a ton
  11. It took waaaaaayyyy to long lol, I did everything VFX related on my own, hence why it took so long for me to complete, I also had little to no knowledge of 3D animating prior. I used element 3D inside after effects for 98% of it all. Used blender for some modeling. Id be getting close to finishing when I'd suddenly have a cool idea for a sequence and figured it would be a good time to learn. The original script for this film was 4 pages, ended up being a 15 minute film, yikes! got a little carried away haha, I couldn't imagine working with #D animation a few years ago. Thanks for watching! :D THANKS! I appreciate the viewership
  12. Here is a VFX heavy short film I shot on the Samsung NX1 years ago, finally decided to finish it and get it online so here it is! The last scene is the canon T3i all lenses used are the rokinon 24mm f1.4 and Canon 50mm f1.4 Watching in 4k is strongly recommended as YouTube loves compressing things
