What are some of the attributes you like about the F900?
Also, Charles, you at the helm of any camera is cheating, you bring a lot of craft and style no matter what gear you are using.

Sorry, don't miss it!
Sensors are so clean and shooting raw, we hardly even have to black or white balance. We have it pretty good.Last edited by James0b57; 03-27-2019, 06:00 PM.

Until the HDX-900 came out and you were a freelancer shooting HD in the broadcast/network world, you owned an F900 or VariCam.

Guest repliedBlack magic and Red are not going to be considered classics at this time. Good cameras, for sure, but just going to single them out to keep things manageable.
They are cameras that have been pixel peeped and fanboyed into stigma. The brand name has overshadowed any specific model, and they would be going up against cameras from Arri, Sony, Canon, and Panasonic. So the waters are pretty muddy. Red brought 4K, and brought the price of cinema to an affordable level, and BM furthered that trend, but... hey, look, Toyota made the camry. A good car that can outperform a Ford Model T, but... yeah, you get the idea.
They can be considered reference or counterpart cameras, so if we can get our hands on them, we’ll throw them in the mix. If you can think of a digital video camera that I missed, but you think we should celebrate as a classic (even something forgotten and overlooked), share your thoughts about.
Just wanted to throw that out there before anyone wanted to start recommending black magic or red, as i am sure there are good arguments for both.Last edited by James0b57; 03-25-2019, 08:33 AM.

Guest repliedA couple candidate cameras:
1. Varicam
This was possibly the first and perhaps only “mojo” digital video camera.
2. DVX100
Because of this forum and what it meant to would be film makers.
3. F35
Because it is the only discontinued digital camera to make a comeback based on image quality alone.
4. Alexa
Because it has been the best since it was released in April, 2010, 9 years ago!
5. 5D mkII
Perhaps because it was all an accident, this camera stayed relavent even after the mkIIi replaced it. Later it would be the Magic Lantern camera and get raw recording. Ergonomics and being the first full frame video camera, and the poster child for the so called dslr recolution eclipsing the dvx100 not just in popularity, but in it’s effect on the art and industry.
I have access to all of these cameras, except the dvx. I may pick one up if no one has one available.Last edited by James0b57; 03-24-2019, 10:38 PM.
