    How do I access that 16:9 aspect ration black bar look on A7S II??

    Question is in the title. I need to know how to get that 16:9 look that a lot of people get from the A7S II?? Is that something done in post, or should it just record it like that automatically???

    Sigma 24-105 - how good is it for videography?? Honest thoughts and opinions please

    I'm seriously considering buying the Sigma 24-105 Art Lens for event videography. It's to be used on a Sony A7S. I always told myself that I would never use a zoom slower than 2.8, but I really feel that a high quality optic that's a fixed aperture and within that zoom range is a much more...

    Anybody favour primes for event videography?

    I've got a dilemma. With my budget and line of videography work that I do, I feel compelled to get a generic 28-70mm zoom and a 70-200mm zoom. The latter I would only really use at weddings, the former is for general events like parties and such. I already have an ultra wide angle lens, so I...
