Chris - thanks for input. I always though PD were a china off brand but it seems maybe they have support in London .. which is appealling to me thanks SMM

Thanks for this. Am I completely off the map or are the designers just folk that never did a job? 1) automatic .. Ive never used auto anything as a light car/teeshirt etc will innapropriately darken the image. 2) blue tooth.. ive never used or had reliability from bluetooth anything 3) no...

the link doesnt work for me - ill check it later. but in general owning a 400 2.8 and 50-300, 14/2.8 -and a bunch of telescoping poor mans zooms I know that matte boxes are not functioning univerally like an internal ND.

Overall, once again DVX, unlike face book or insta or the manufacturers have enabled me to straigten my thoughts. The value of the site remains!

I think that is full circle .. that the 18-105 f4 pz and a small (fx2, fx30) sony could indeed be a great solution. This just leaves the ND problem. As I was driving to test the FX30 it was a particularly sunny morning with very deep shadows as the leaves are sprouting on the the UK trees...

Chris .. No mention of how canon control that lens.. or if the 1.5x can be remotely engaged. Juat more evidence that the 'consumer' 24-105 2.8 and zoom solution are going the way of the 18-80 canon ef And the app is not ready for the real world --- Re your 2/3 lens setup, it is manuial...

To continue on the FIz.. sony 28-135pz = some thousands, not actually wide. sony 24-105/4G + nucleaus one motor = about the same or less cash but actually almost wide enough 20-70 sony + nucleus motor = actually good coverage! nucleus one motor works on .. 24-105 sony 20-70 sony panazonic HVX...

Thank you for taking time to respond. This is good info. Im well into checking out USB now :) The rental house and (sony Basingstoke) advised not usb but,, usb->cat5->router->cat5-.dongle-> ipad (this provides theoretical multicams from one ipad) This setup was not stable and fkd my last...

Yes. the C400 monitorUSB is a great concept... if that monitor worked with the C80 they could sell a bucket full of them. The c400 is a little heavy and costy but thats a concept. (the FX3 and C80 may move to an RS5 and be workable??) I think the c80 will work with cat 5 - which im sposed to...

What do you want to control? Absolutely everything? I want to handle a stuation where the sun might go in or come out. and to zoom to change shot size between 24 and 70 when the camera is 'somehwere' it cannot be physically reached. Id like this to work in busy places that are RF dense. I...

Im not looking for the perfect cameras (1000FPS 6k raw, $3000, 500g 20-200T2 zoom) Im looking for a maker that has some form of strategy that hangs together. To me a (corporate event doc) larger format camera system probably sits around 16-35 24-70 and 70-200 - a basic trinity as old as.. some...

This thread should probably be moved to 'cafe' this is my latest chart, if cameras with AF and ND.,. (Have I missed any? sube £10k??)

So I drove to a shop today - lovely early summer day to the thed FX30. Trying to clear the head. OK I want a camera for a jib that has control (including ND) and a 24-70 And it cam to me that 'cludging' an ND filter is the hardest thing to do. This focuses priority on.. 1) camera with ND 2)...

Maybe I have a gear syndrome. I think I want a remote control camera with a 24-70 2.8, .. not that hard I would think! Maybe I just want to try and verbailse what I actually want. I like AF and I like low mass. (this rules out alexa/varicam/vewnice) The C200.. its perfect.. until you own it...

OK so I did a shoot with the FX6, mounted on my car. for the bbc. -the app control did not work in a solid manner after testing by a reliable rental house (not shonky me) -examine the PZ lenses that sony make.. they are mainly 35 coverage.. a mode which the FX6 works in HD only. (ok there is...

Or fk it? Just get a C80 and a remote zoom motor! (ive already got a 24-70f4 which is 'ok' as a jib lens Im lost.

Im worried about going S35 and worried about going Sony!

The only thing is the FX2 .. but how is it in crop mode. Im interested in crop mode because I want this camera on my jib and there are very few PZ lenses that cov er full frame

So I have been going around the houses wanting to replace my C200. What do I want the camera to do?? Have functional AF, have 10bit log, Not overheat, have XLR.. are these the main specs. and ND . Im I thinking straight.. the Fx30 is super cheap it wont overheat it is low mas and has some...

the reflection gag..
