I'd give even money on him doing the same with a Chocolate Brownie. His XH-2 stuff is very good. Tim Sewell and kye 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I ruined a lot of shots just because I thought a $10,000 camera setup would transform my bad lighting and framing into something cinematic." Flawless quote. I've used mine as the A camera on 2 short films so far - one for Four Points Film Project and one for a local short film festival called Z Fest. My favorite modes are the 5.8k 2.39 mode that uses full sensor width and the full size 4k mode where I can choose between decent RS and high dynamic range. I also like the 8k mode, but less for the resolution and more for the crop to vary up my prime focal lengths. It also doesn't hurt that the Fuji 110/2 is probably my favorite lens that I ever used on any format/camera. Going in for a any sort of close-up with that lens feels like you just typed a cheat code into your monitor. For most shorts that I shoot, I'm way more likely to just grab the C70 or the K-X. The Fuji can make some amazing images, but I'm always having to think about which mode I'm in and which positives/drawbacks that mode has... plus the big sensor can create some problems. Like, if I put on a fast manual lens with character that I like, I might need to stop it down to f/4 to get enough working DOF to keep the talent in focus while they move (or to have the tip of their nose still in focus while their eyes are sharp) - and by f/4, a lot of the character that I like in that lens vanishes. This objection is reduced a lot with native or EF glass, though, since the eye detect AF is really decent (back to the 110/2, did I mention that I love that lens?). That said, if I'm traveling and can only bring one camera, it's a no-brainer for me. The GFX 100 II is by far the best all-around camera I've ever touched. I've taken it to Turkey and Brazil since getting it and never found myself wishing I had another camera with me. There's a reason that my answer in the "If you could have only one camera..." thread was simply "GFX 100 II." 😁 kye and zlfan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Hello! I have been looking for GFX 100 ii F log video files to download and grade in Davinci Resolve but I can't find anything online. The above Wetransfer link you have provided has expired also. Can you repost it please? That would be amazing :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatstoomuchjam Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Here are a few short and uninteresting clips in f-log2. They're still uploading, should be done in about 10 minutes. I'll leave them up until I remember to delete them or need to free up space. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wXDZ0j8JvTxejzKbjjnEYq0XWv1qZJ30?usp=sharing PannySVHS and Davide DB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Thank you so much!! I will download these and check them out. Do you have any clips of people by chance? 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatstoomuchjam Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 I just poked around - most of what I have with people is either for short films that I shot for others or with friends who would be upset if I shared their image to an internet forum. If it's OK for the people to be a bit out of focus (just for a skin tones test or something), I have a few from one of my own short films with people in the foreground or background. kye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is always my challenge. I have a project that I use for colour grading practice and testing that has two main sections, one with private images that are absolutely full of skintones, and the other section for images I can post publicly that scarcely has any because people don't want to be posted publicly. eatstoomuchjam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten before that I had the GFX 100 II when I went to Turkey last year. I added a clip of a bunch of people fishing from a bridge in Istanbul with tourists passing behind them.

The poor-shooters Alexa 65? one of the best camera introduction videos. fuji should hire him to promote the cameras. I feel that the still photos in the video are much more eye catching than the video clips. kye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
