MushroomDude Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Has anyone tried a DC coupler into the X-T3? Was thinking about picking up a monitor w/ Sony FP support to help supply power out to the camera as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking about picking up a monitor w/ Sony FP support to help supply power out to the camera as well @MushroomDude I haven't used a DC coupler (battery dummy) in the X-T3, but I have used a PD-compatible power supply into the USB-C port, and it seems to power the camera. I shot about 20 minutes of 4K video over an hour with the camera on the whole time, and the battery still showed full charge. That's normally enough to drain the battery. I guess in the upcoming firmware update they are adding a different icon to show when it's not running off the internal battery, which will be nice.

Hene1 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I just received X-T3 and I can't find any way to record simultaneously to both SD cards. Backup recording seems to affect still images only. Is this the truth or is there something I'm missing? 2 card slots are a waste if there is no way to use them for backup recording.

Yes, for stills you can select the two slots to be used for the RAW/JPEG splitting, backup or in sequential mode but for video it is sequential only. The sequential process can be set so that stills will go to one card and video to the other though, which is a worthwhile function for a hybrid. So, yes, for video there is no backup option unless you have an external recorder and use the internal SD with simultaneous output to HDMI setting.

Also, if it means using the same ISO value among different sensors, then sensor performance is generally going to be better on the larger sensor.

thephoenix Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 depth of field is the same at the same length just the framing isn't the same due to crop factor, if you frame exactly the same then depth of field is gonna be the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thephoenix Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 compare same length glasses 70mm is 70mm no matter the sensor size. the field of view changes but the length are the same for two 70mm for example. this is gonna help you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thephoenix Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 actually in this article he compares different focal length of course depht of field isn't the same if your distance to subject isn't the same, but if you move closer to the subject to have same crop (background will look larger though) then depth of field is the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontfocus Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 when did the topic change from X-T3 to equivalency? Is there nothing about the camera worth talking about? How is everybody finding h.265 10 bit to work with? For me it works without any problems. Only exporting h.265 10 bit is impossible. Not literally but it takes ages (literally).

Even 120fps & 4K60 looking amazing.. I dont know man, It doesnt look bad at all. But have not seen anything that has that true cinema mojo (maybe because its a fairly new camera, and no one actually used one on a decent project). But it does look better than most dslrs or mirrorless camera's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why regardless of how good these cameras get most users will continue to put out amateur looking footage. deezid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocool22 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I found one, not sure if its been posted in over these 55 pages. Looks pretty good, but often feels way too sharp and digital to be truly great. 57 minutes ago, DBounce said: You have to bring the "cinema mojo". There is no preset for this.

I feel like the 5D III RAW has some kinda voodoo mojo, offcourse the Alexa has it, and all film camera's(have not shot with an actual film camera before though) deezid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontfocus Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 it has been posted. Properly 3 or 4 times ? To be honest, every time I watch it, I am shocked how Youtube destroys nice material like this. There is quite some banding/posterisation.

thephoenix Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 lens is important too, but most of the people now shoot too sharp or add too much sharpness in post, social networks illness. for my part i am still looking for a good canon / fuji adapter as i don't have any fuji lenses and have all set of good canon lenses and don't feel like selling them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess its a easier sell to the masses, so they can shoot and say, look how sharp this looks."Amazing huh" Sure whatever floats your boat. deezid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on my GH5 I can't get rid of that oversharpened look even by using a strong diffusion filter and setting sharpening to -5... lol The X-T3 is better in that regard. -4 looks already quite ok. But nothing comes close to a RED, ARRI or BM camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
