Seems like they are confident their mirrorless lenses will sell. Maybe they are counting on the new guys buying it while the DSLR users slowly die out. I don't know. Sony certainly was the front runner for mirrorless as well as Panasonic, though they got into the full frame game too damn late. The Pana S1 is definitely nice though I feel like Canon and Sony are both cooking up something big.

Seems like Canon or Nikon could just find a way to make mirrorless cameras using their old mounts.

I think hybrid cameras are definitely more suited to narrative film making. If you got them on sticks, or a gimbal or dolly they work perfectly. Not so much for handheld. That said I am really impressed with what I can get from the XT3 plus OIS 18-55. For B-roll its almost an ideal setup. I think for anything critical I want a 1st AC focus pulling. That said if I am going solo switching between AF and manual focus is just a matter of hitting a button. For certain shots you can't go wrong with AF.

The Hoya ND's are pretty reasonably priced especially used.

They'll release a 1DXMK2 mirrorless version that will probably become the go to pro camera. Nikon could go under water but if they release a mirrorless sports APSC camera that could be very popular. The EOS R sucks tech wise but its a nice reliable body and people like that. The R is just the beginning IMO.

If you want to use primes handheld definitely get the XH1. I am happy using the 18-55 when I need stabilization, the OIS is pretty amazing, better than GH5 IBIS imho. That or you can use Canon OIS primes with an adapter, but than your auto focus will suck. The XH1 continuous auto focus isn't near as usable as the XT3. The XT3 has reached the point of it being pretty darn good for many situations. XH1 is still usable but definitely less reliable and more limiting.

I'll stick to my XT3. Most people getting into photography/video now will be buying mirrorless. Canon and Nikon are really just beginning to take mirrorless seriously. I think once they release some really good bodies in the next year things will really rapidly change. The EOS R and Nikon Z were just the start.

Fuji GF lenses of course. Some full frame vintage lenses will also cover medium format, like minolta.

come on I bet you got some fun out of pulling peoples strings, you still do it on here?

That makes sense. There is definitely different types of activism videos one can make. Take someone like Nas daily, which is pretty much all positive stuff.

Why would they be heated towards the people making a video for them tho?

The crazy thing is you can put a metabones on and get a crop factor close to full frame. Not much like it for the price.

Still happy with my pocket. The ability to just shoot in prores LT and get small files as well as RAW if I want it is great. Its nice that the RAW can just be put right in Desolve and edits like butter. The XT3 and XT30 are great though. Eterna is really nice and of course the 10 bit Flog on the XT3 is just really easy to work with.

Regardless of the softness I still love the BRAW. Wish they'd put it in the Ursa Mini. The ability to shoot low bitrate 12 bit is awesome.

Wheelchair or cart plus gimbal and post stabilization. As long as the ground you are shooting on is decent you'll get dolly like shots that way. Otherwise not sure of an easier way other than a real dolly. Obviously a slider can work for certain shots though.

The Sony F35 is also tempting at its current price point.

The BM Micro is really nice. I have the original Pocket camera. The internal prores 10 bit is really nice to have. Its not a low light performer though and of course no auto focus.

Would have thought that was shot on film. Very nice The XT3 seemed to have sold well but yeah there isn't a lot of buzz around it on forums and such. At least not like there usually is for Panasonic cameras.

I'd go with the Nikon Z6. Having no log is annoying but you can upload custom picture profiles like Andrew Reid's Zlog. I am personally happy with my XT3 though.

Lots of college degrees aren't worth much. Really just have to pick a lucrative field or be content barely getting by doing something you love or actually want to do. The whole college situation in the US(can't speak for the rest of the world) is a racket. I am not saying that degrees are worthless, but the system in place is terrible.

I think it just has to do with how reputable the business is rather than where their products are made. So like in the case of Fuji even though they switched manufacturing to China you could assume their products haven't dropped in quality.

A of course Of course its also a stereotype which like any stereotype has some truth or at least once did

Dang that sucks. I believe the sandisk card I just bought works fine in my BMPCC

I'd expect prores like the E2

Same dynamic range as Fuji XT3 video? Thats a bit disappointing.
