Hi all I thought I would just point out something that might be plain as day to some, but perhaps a bit of a revelation to others. Coming from a Sony F900 and knowing many people on here are current or recovering RED owner, one thing that always narced me off was the expense of buying HD-SDI...

Hi all I am interested in any good 35mm film, re-cans, short/long ends or just leftover stock that's about to go out of date or has just gone out of date. I don't have much cash but happy to pay a reasonable fee + shipping. I am based in the UK James

Continuing my old-school theme, I appear to be moving backwards. Anyone got any short-ends they are willing to donate?

Hi all I have a spare Hawkwoods V-Lock plate, which is currently XLR out but I am getting modified to 8-pin F35 use. Anyone want it? £100 James

Hi guys I am getting Hawkwoods to wire me up a new 4-pin XLR > F35 lemo connector. Does anyone else want one? They do a great quality job. James

Hi all Selling my viewfinder, it is an extremely rare "Accuscene" finder which was developed at the same time as the Panavision F900/Genesis and was built to be much better than the Sony unit. It is basically a 720p DLP projector inside a fairly large housing - think of it like the RED...

So, it seems there are a lot of questions from both owners and potential owners about the F35's low-light capabilities. As has been mentioned countless times, the F35 is designed as a film replacement camera - complete with all the issues and benefits that entails. It has never been touted as...

SJX, I posted another thread some time ago where I put in images of the F35 with very minimal lighting. I think you may want to start another thread with specific questions, to stop diverting other posts. I can share with you this pic, no lighting involved other than what you can see. My eyes...

My rig, not pictured with the viewfinder (Accuscene VF1280S)

Hi all, I wanted to share with you a bit of footage I took when teaching the F35 to a class last year. My aim was twofold: 1. To prove to students you can light something nice very easily 2. To show that ISO 800 isn't necessary to deal with low light situations. Although we were in a studio...

The advent of the RED has meant that there are now more owner-operators than ever before and the price of cinema quality glass has skyrocketed. However, for those prepared to live with some compromise, there are a few options out there for "reasonable" lenses. I'll post some suggestions here...

I will include here also things shot with the Panavision Genesis, as the two cameras are very very similar. Please tell me other shows/films you know of and I will add them to the list. FEATURE FILMS: 2012 (Genesis) A Woman, A Gun and a Noodle Shop (F35) Alice in Wonderland (Genesis)...

The first time you lay eyes on an F35 your immediate thought might be "well, that's handheld out the window." It certainly was one of mine. I was replacing a Sony F900 which, for those who don't know, is a camera that uses the shell and basic layout of a 2/3" broadcast camera. It was designed...

For those who are looking at the F35, probably the most obvious question is "what the hell do I record onto?" The answer is the somewhat evasive "whatever you want!" The camera was designed to dock with an HDCAM SR deck, known as the SRW-1. It's fairly chunky, but remember - the F35 is a "35mm...

I thought it was worth making a post about the sensor on the F35, as it can be confusing if you're not familiar with it. The F35 is a derivative of the Panavision Genesis, a camera which Panavision and Sony developed together jointly. Although much of the cameras is different, the overall...

Hello all, I am distilling information gleaned from my own experiences and those of others into some beginners threads. Hopefully anyone else getting in on the F35 bandwagon will not have to trawl through the beastly 180+page post that most of us have been living in. Anyway, the first post is...

Wahey! A new forum! I will see about creating some posts to help anyone who might come looking for info, this thread is a bit of a beast. In the meantime, some gear porno. Compared with my old F900, this is a VERY compact setup.

As promised, my camera setup - now Mark III. Integrated the interface box into the plate for my cinedeck. All works fine. I ditched the power and audio options from it as I don't need them.

Hi, I have a set of Zeiss Standard Speeds (T2.1 16/32/50/85) and ARRI accessories - MB-19, FF5 + filters which I am interested in renting out to productions. Anyone interested, let me know James
