AF is greyed out in video mode on the A7SIII with the Metabones EF-E IV with all of my Canon glass. AF will work with the same on my FS7 but it's pretty much worthless anyway...

I've gotten to know some of the sales people at BH as I'm a regular walk-in. The consensus from the employees is that they're being pushed hard by ownership/management who has cut staff...

Yeah same here. Last time I worked for ABC they wanted 720...TBH Netflix should worry more about their content (or lack thereof) than gear fetishism (not referring to your work JPNola which I've...

Wow, sounds like a really open minded producer...

Are your films in Dutch or English, Peter?

I wound up picking up a mint Canon 70-200 F4 IS on Ebay for $500. AF works on my FS7 but no-go on my A7SIII with Metabones IV. Common issue I've heard. Not that AF is great with Canon glass, but it...

Thanks, Abe. That's about the ugliest thing I've ever seen ;)... Hey, but if it works...

Trying to find a lens hood that will fit my Tamron 28-75 with 67mm-->77mm step-up ring + 77mm black pro mist filter. The original one won't fit any more. Suggestions?

Nathan,

I used the units (latest update installed) for a couple of hours over the weekend and neither TX had the issue you described. If your problem persists I would exchange your system if it's...

Good question. I know that wired mics can sometimes get RF interference from poor cable shielding but this scenario is different. You might want to post this in the audio section and let the experts...

Luckily, I sold mine a few months back ;)

Sounds like RF hits to me but maybe someone with more audio expertise can chime in...

Hopefully 32bit float will come soon...

How does the Sony 70-200 F4 stack up against the Canon 70-200 F4 IS? Is the Sony focus by wire and how is the AF on the newer Sony bodies i.e. the A7SIII?

Thanks. I have a Canon 55-250 4-5.6 IS STM currently. Would the above mentioned lenses be significantly better optically? I'm guessing so...

Thanks. Leaning towards Canon 70-200 F4 IS. They can be had for around $600 on Ebay. IS probably a must at 200mm. Just wondering how an older AF system will work on the A7SIII...

Can anyone recommend a good telephoto lens I can use for both my FS7 and A7siii? I was looking at the classic Canon 70-200 2.8 or F4. For traditional telephoto uses but also to create a shallow DOF...

Actually, I think I loaded the film too tightly...

Some of the reviews on the F2 have mentioned issues with the mic connection. Might be worth investigating... BTW Tentacle tipped me that Trew Audio has a few E recorder units available now:...

So, just a follow up on my reaching out to Rode re: 32bit float. They responded thus: "Thanks for the message. The Wireless Go II can operate in WAV 32 bit float: This gives an upscaled 32 bit float...

The ME-2 is a serviceable but ordinary mic. When I first emailed Tentacle about the E recorder's specs they said it included an MKE2 equivalent mic. I was doubtful then and now I know it's not true...

I spoke to Jules at Tentacle and they're taking a "wait and see" approach to Rode and Zoom's challenge of the Zaxcom patent. As you know they're a small company and the last thing they can afford is...

I'm going to contact Rode about 32bit in a future firmware update (if it's possible from a tech standpoint) If Zoom can do 32bit @$149 Rode can @ $300 (albeit for two TX + RX). That would make the...

It's great -- I love my track E. No issues yet and I've paired it with an Oscar 802 and it sounds great. Be aware that US models have the headphone out disabled...

When you say out of range do you mean you exceeded the 200m range or the subject was out of line of sight? Also was the TX with the lav mic on the front or rear of your subject?
