Hopefully it has an option that isn't overly sharpened. 10 bit log should really be an option too.

I think the hype has died down but its a hugely popular camera. I see it being used a lot and I know a lot of people who are planning on purchasing it. I usually tell them its a good choice. I personally am thinking about getting one as well. The Pocket 6k had my attention but now that I think about it the Pocket 4k is probably a better option. Longer battery life, larger FOV with a speedbooster(1.34/1.24 crop depending on speedbooster, compared to 1.6), being able to mount a speedbooster also means a stop more light making it superior in low light, 4k RAW without crop(6k is not always wanted). I am thinking about an S1 or S1H as well but the Pocket is such a good deal at $1000 used. The internal RAW and beautifully easy menu system on Blackmagic is hard to beat.

Sigma has come close to offering an affordable package that gives you everything you'd need. No compressed RAW or good auto focus though or intermediate codec. Full frame is cool as it gives an edge in low light. At some point that will no longer matter and sensor size will become pretty irrelevant. Once someone comes out with the equivalent of an S1H with Canon like auto focus there won't be need for much more for most people, especially if it has compressed RAW as well. In terms of more professional filmaking there really isn't a huge drive for better cameras. Its really this one man band stuff that is pushing the innovation imho. There will come a point when the one man band has everything he needs and that will drive down innovation as there simply won't be a demand for more.

Camera straps worked better on heavy DSLR's, though I guess that isn't an issue with something like the S1H seeing its weight. An A73 tho or Fuji gets jittery real fast.

Of course but we are reaching a point of diminishing returns. We've had 10 bit 422 for a while now(GH5), we've had great low light (A7S), we've had RAW(Pocket camera) but nothing has combined all of them together. Sigma has come close, the S1H comes close, the Pocket 4k/6k come close. They are all missing on of the ingredients.

I need that EF mount adapter now!

color grading 😅 Andrew does make color profiles for the Sony cameras... hint hint

It was because they dropped the XT3 so soon after. I think it would have been better to do the X-H1 with an XT3 sensor right off the bat. But those marketing guys probably know better than me.

Yeah but it costs about $400 and never comes up used! I got the Canon mount for $100 and the camera itself comes with a PL mount. I am cool with an adapter as I'll only use Nikon lenses for cheaper jobs where it doesn't matter as much. Bigger projects adapters can be a little cumbersome but its usually PL lenses or EF for big projects. I am really excited to get it though!

Sony is stupid for not doing the same style camera with 10 bit, new AF, and Venice color

The S1H is pretty peak in terms of image. It just needs better AF, 5" screen, and internal compressed RAW. Pretty excited to see this new Fuji camera. The Canon's are going to be tough to beat with their awesome lens lineup. I am guessing they'll be twice the price of what Fuji is putting out.

That was a typo as I always get confused about which is which. Internal ND's and BRAW would be nice but I am perfectly happy with prores and am used to using ND's with my SLR's so its not a deal breaker. Kind of forgot about the IR pollution issue, but thats an easy enough fix. I didn't think it was possible but it seems like you can mount Nikon lenses to EF with a thin adapter. That might be the way to go for me. Just got one of those cheap CFast to SSD cables, I am gonna go that route for storage. Got an NPF to Vmount plate too. Its going to be a bit ghetto for now but it'll work.

Well I just got an URSA mini 4.6k, kind of an impulse buy but I don't think I'll regret it. Just watched a video comparing it to a C300 MK2. It sucked at high iso but the dynamic range killed the C300 and that was just shooting with Prores 422

That's a really helpful test! Kind of wish I shot my last thing with natural now haha. Selling off my GH5 again though, this is the second one I've owned so far.

The A7S has great 1080p. Color science is very meh but if you are good at grading then its not a worry. The A6000 1080p was nice too, low rolling shutter, low moire. Not great past 800 iso though and poor dynamic range due to the lack of log.

The GH5 was the medium shot. Fuji was wide and close up

I've done it on other lights. I plan on doing it on my Godox 200 tho

What is special about classic neg?

The Godox SL60 used to have a noisy fan but recent versions do not. Also you can replace the fan, its actually really simple.

Shot this with an XT3 and GH5.

Shot and edited this for an IndieGoGo campaign for a short I am the DOP and co producer on. Pretty happy with it. Used the Fuji XT3 with an 18-55 and a GH5 with a minolta 50mm and metabones.

I wish I had that drive!

This is one of my dad's favorite films. A bit cheesy but well done. Is somewhat haunting and beautiful.

you'd be looking for a color shift I assume? I could shoot it against a grey card

I could test it for you, what would be the best way to test a quality of the light? I don't own the Godox 60w though. My LED's are all mixed haha, makes for lots of fun in post.
