For any non-cine Canon camera, their codecs/sensor/camera was giving a trash image, that you had to be very very careful with. But their C300mk1 / 1D C / etc were very very nice.

FHDcrew Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Agreed. I think a C100 II would have been perfect for me, since downrezzed FHD is plenty for what I do. I was a little concerned I wouldn’t be able to push the 8 bit low nitrate c-log around much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I am talking Cine cameras. Believe it or not I have never owned a "normal" Canon digital camera other than a M1 for ML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little concerned I wouldn’t be able to push the 8 bit low nitrate c-log around much. If good 8bit 1080 is enough to make you happy, why not get the C300mk1? They're an extremely similar price now in 2022 The C100 is a little under US$1K, while the C300mk1 is a little over US$1K. As the C300 can record at 50 Mbps 4:2:2 XF codec, whereas the C100's highest recording capability is 24 Mbps at 4:2:0 AVCHD codec. a BIG factor in favor of the C300mk1. Not to mention the many extra goodies the C300mk1 has, such as timecode and SDI output. (or splurge out on a C300mk2, but they seem to go for US$4K? Or $3K if you are lucky) webrunner5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FHDcrew Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 The c300 ii seems like a 1080 beast with 12 bit 444!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Heh, you can get that out of a FS7/F5 for similar money as well. But they're doing 4K 12bit 444! Not 1080 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does exist a camera with those features under 1k euros? feature list: the camera don't overheat; at least "apsc size" sensor; the video is stabilized, zero colored moiré effect; compatible with vintage lenses; having a good codec able to recover darker areas in post producion (good for color grading). which is it the price for such a camera? thx for your attention The thing that stinks is that your specific combination is really only available in M43 in your price range. The R10 lacks stabilization, otherwise it would check most of those boxes if overheating ends up not being an issue (wait for people to get the camera and really put it through the ringer though.) The Lumix S5 is a little more than you're looking to spend, but it's a huge jump up and is a bargain. It might be worth waiting until you can save up a little extra and get that?

webrunner5 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Pretty much all the camera you really ever need. Amazing how little we really have gained in 10 years to be honest. I think it lacks nothing for the average person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
