Popular Post Ed_David Posted February 20, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2017 I saw a film, swore to myself it was shot on 16mm nope it was shot on the red dragon. (Dayveon) Then I thought it was shot on zeiss ultraspeeds. Nope it was Canon K35s, which I think are similar to Canon FD glass. I saw another film, swore to myself it was shot on the alexa, nope it was shot on the c300 mark i (motherland) I was sitting 30 rows in the back, in the front, all over the place. I couldn't tell anything After all that, after everything we do, and say, at the end of the day, none of us can tell. kaylee, Gregormannschaft, Zak Forsman and 13 others 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 If you cant tell, I'll take your F65. Who wants that heavy, expensive old thing anyway. In trade, I'll take you out to Walmart and let ya pick out whatever camera ya want and then I'll buy ya dinner at Applebees. bunk, andrgl, IronFilm and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ND64 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Your eye is not trained enough. To my ears, all fighter jet engines sound same, but there are people who can hear the difference. Does it matter? I don't know. Adept, IronFilm and Ed_David 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregormannschaft Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm always amazed when I see work projected in a kino environment, instead of on a monitor or a screen. Mushy, crap footage you thought looked bad can take on very natural qualities. Footage you thought looked great, now looks stunning.

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted February 21, 2017 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2017 Shame I was out of town when you were in town Ed. A friend had a film in the festival, and I also missed that! He shot it on the 5D Mark II with Magic Lantern RAW... apparently looked just like film on the big screen. If anything, the small screen is more critical as you're sat so close to every pixel. What did you think to Berlin? Weird isn't it?

Ed_David Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Berlin is amazing! It feels like NYC from like 20 years ago. The people are great there. There is a renewed experience, to make the city something, after everything that went down in the 20th century. It's really something amazing to be apart of. Nice guys on all your comments. SAM, yes, you can have my F65. I will go back to shooting on a t2i sam, webrunner5 and mercer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a music video nominated for a Metal Hammer award, they played it on the big screen for a bit. I was blown away by the quality. It was shot in a GH3. Sat back, I also saw a test clip on Vimeo I thought was the Alexa. No, it was actually the 8-bit A6300 in Slog3. I'm also gobsmacked how much better my videos look on an iPad or iPhone. Noise is gone. Images I thought were soft actually resolve brilliantly. Most is low bitrate footage. We all know that content is most important. With cameras, they're all good enough to realise that content. The skill is choosing the correct characteristics for that content and maximising a cameras capabilities. I've got little interest in the "camera race" at the moment, it's extremely minor in the scheme of things. elgabogomez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a game changer with progressive frames. sam and kaylee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been having issues with the jog dial on my editing deck, so testing has been taking longer than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogtown Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Sony EX1 -EX3 and Letus 35mm spinning adapter, or the SG Blade, these did suck up a lot of light but looked great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisaha Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 @Dogtown we did a tv series with thus setup a lot of years ago EX-3 with a Letus adapter! Was a nightmare to light but back then it was the best budgeted workflow for a small market. I still use the EX-1 for some plain events coverage, it has started shown its age, but still quite competutive for a cam corder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
