Well, Paul - doggone it, thanks for ruining my retirement. My wife & I both have money stuck in a Roth IRA. Guess we're screwed. :angry:
One of the reasons we were told it was a good way to go - so...

100% agreed. I had lots of projects on sitting inside FCP that suddenly, really without much warning, became uneditedable if I wanted to upgrade.




I also think this is quite true. When I...

Wait. Now I'm confused. I've usually ignored these kind of a threads because, well, the way "around" this is to stop being an LLC or sole-prop and become incorporated - ie S-Corp as R-n-G has done....

I guess this condescending post was directed toward my post. All I can say in response is that you are preaching to the choir, if directing this toward me. And you are frankly assuming waaaaaay too...

Sam - you should try out the a7siii - if you can get your hands on one. Oddly an improvement over the FS7 in some important ways - like being able to easily WB while shooting Slog. (it's WB system...

Cheers to you JP - especially during Covid - that isn't my experience at all. Though I don't disagree on needing better clients...it's a constant battle.




Doug - you purchased your wife? How...

Charles - first of all, this post should probably be in its own thread because frankly it directly addresses the elephant in the room that is very rarely discussed in this forum or certainly with...

Chris - my apologies if I misspoke too soon or without checking with you first. I probably should have alerted you to my post. Just appreciate the work you put in improving something which was...

Welcome back, right Ben. (that's sarcasm) Try to post some helpful tests - which might be instructive to those considering and you get the "Video look" card.

The thing I get most tired of (besides...

Yeah, me too. :beer:

This is a great question, Jim. To be candid, I had pre-ordered the FX6 with my dealer when it was first announced - thinking it would replace my FS7. But because of the pandemic, I decided to hold...

I'm a bit confused on this release as well. As a FS7 & a7sIII owner... scratching my head a bit with this. The VF on the a7sIII is actually pretty darn good (for what it is). Not sure why Sony...

^ I'm assuming that was sarcasm ....

Ben - Cheers! It's good to see you back on here posting again! And certainly glad to read you are well and still active.
Footage looks nice. Thanks for sharing. And manual focus not-so-bad for this...

Absolutely. Just rather ironic - since Paul was the person who "hacked" the F5 to shoot 4k - when Sony initially said it couldn't do it. Now he makes a pretty darn good profile for S-Cinetone... and...

My A7sIII can already do 60p in XAVC S I 4K... so not sure what that's about.
I also don't get many requests for 60p... but believe this what all the young folks use to shoot those gimbal "slo-mo"...

I would venture to guess that Paul once again forced Sony's hand on offering something they were either going to charge extra for - or were gonna roll out in the next product cycle - or simply...

Hmmm.... Lenny... yes - something is definitely amiss. Are you sure you're in "video" mode on the wheel on top of camera and maybe not in Auto or something else?
There are nearly limitless options...

Well... they are getting closer to getting my $...
ND's ... check
tilting screen & easy add on VF... check...
newer, better CS...check
better battery.... ch...er, NP-F570...??? Does anyone else...

"Why It Was Easier to Be Skinny in the 1980's"?

Answer: Because I was in my teens and 20's all of that decade. :grin:

^ Is the FX6 E mount such that you don't need a lens support for that heavy lens?

I know my Video Devices PIX E can do this - but it is also discontinued. But highly recommend this little monitor / recorder if you find a good deal on a used one.

Accidentally upvoted this when meant to downvote. You don't think "Self Educated American" might be a tiny bit political?
