When people like this scriba here are used to buy the most spread lens mount option to fit the more number of different cameras as much as possible, this is also something to have in mind such as the Megadap ETZ21 adapter to couple E-mount lenses to diversify the setup towards those new Nikon camera releases without losing AF capability. Other than that, better IBIS, higher resolution 5.7K @50fps and open gate recording are neat GH7 advantages. That said, first contact with this guy.

And they work brilliantly because this was my approach for the first half of this year, - adapted E Mount glass on Nikon bodies...except there is one potential flaw and that is the lack of in camera lens correction. Sony bodies correct for it, Nikon bodies do not. It has not been a major issue with stills though sometimes, even with lens profiles in Lightroom and some manual adjustment, it has been impossible to truly straighten certain things and a bit of hard cropping is the only option. With video though, it would be a bigger concern. AF and image quality though, superb and it's my opinion, Nikon image quality is nicer than Sony image quality with your typical hybrid camera. And ultimately, it means that Nikon Z users have access to more glass than Sony E Mount users. But I have switched to Sony for stills because ultimately, I did not want the niggles of lens distortion and the AF is as good as it gets and those 2 factors counted for me on the basis that the image quality difference is negligible. Actually, regarding the latter, the image quality of the 61mp Sony files is better than that of the 24mp Zf files, but the Zf is better in low light. Without question.

eatstoomuchjam Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 14 hours ago, IronFilm said: I thought it was kinda a genius marketing move. As making a short film to a high level is expensive. But this way they spread out the costs via a bunch of supporting sponsoring companies, and got out a bunch more content pumped out vs normally just the one or two videos made. Oh, sure. That's all fine. I just meant that people here might not want to waste their time if looking for actual comparisons between the Arri and the GH7 since that's what I expected to find after seeing the title and watching the first minute or so. Their short film had more than 10x the budget that I plan for my first feature this Fall. If I could talk about how great Hollyland, et al are for 10 minutes and get $100k to pay cast/crew/locations, I would absolutely do that. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PannySVHS Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Some anamorphic goodness. Splendid shortfilm with jojo players performing and offscreen statements about their art and what it means to them in living their lifes. I found the bts on youtube which linked to the actual video. Filmed in HD 240fps with a 20mm Laowa Nanomorph, in Arri C. Davide DB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTheDP Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 GH7 always looks noticeably different in these tests. I'd imagine the white balance isn't the same as an Alexa's. Maybe it's also IR filtration. mercer and zlfan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
