ntblowz Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Finally got a7iii, took over a months wait, the shop said it will be in short supply til Xmas time. so far colour is not my cup of tea, gonna take while to get used to it Also ordered MFT to E mount adapter so I can use Laowa 7.5mm on A7, its my fav UW lens! Much tinier than Laowa 15mm f2 or 9mm f2.8. And also gonna see if olympus 9mm fisheye body lens cap would work it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So only just saw this and, whoa, that lav in the opening scene is massive compared to the top she is wearing! The lav is almost giving her more coverage than her clothes.

IronFilm Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Yes, that is what my eye was drawn too as well! Out of curiosity I researched some of her other videos too, seems to be a common theme of not just exposed lav (kinda sort of forgivable for youtube vloggers) but even exposed wires!!! :-/ Sigh.

heart0less Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 @Geoff CB I really dig the colors. Was it shot using the EOSHD v4 or your GFILM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple things: 1) I'm not a Sony hater. LOVE my A7 III! This isn't a deal breaker for me shouldn't be for you either. 2) I posted this for science. Not to dis or promote any brand. I found it very interesting. 3) Some say this was a pointless or click bait loaded video. Do you think Sony messing up aspect ratios is a big deal?

Stathman Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I think this is related to the blinking pixels at the bottom of the screen issue and how Sony fixed it... Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. The a7 III's got fine color and detail. Screengrab below no color correction at all in post. screengrab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kye Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Can someone clarify the debate around the colours for me? There seems to be two kinds of comments.. the "Sony colours are bad" type comments, and the "colours look fine to me" comments. The A7III colours look fine to me, but I'm definitely not the biggest connoisseur in that department. Do the "Sony colours look bad" comments include the A7III? I have seen comments around the A7III having the Venice colour science, so perhaps it's other Sony cameras that these comments are referring to? Thanks! @jonpais thanks for that upload - the amount of detail is really impressive.. downscaling 6K seems to be a winner! jonpais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I know a lot of people Hated the original A7s colors. I love them. They have a Grungy, Cine look to me. And I think they are easy on a woman's face and that to me is a plus. But on the other hand if I was doing Corporate Interviews, Doc work than that is where a Canon C100, C300 shines. I think it is more what you shoot determines the camera need. I personally think the new A7 mk III looks as Canonish as a Canon! They may have gone too far LoL. I don't think any one camera can do it all for all jobs. But it can become your signature look if you try, and I think that is what sets the big boys apart, Their look. And you can't keep switching cameras and Luts and keep that feel. And you can never get the best out of it unless you know it like the back of your hand. kye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
