I just finished shooting a feature doc (one man band) and my breathing is often audible on the on-camera shotgun mic. I was using an AT-875r isolated on the top handle hot shoe with a Rycote mic holder. However, I have sinus problems and my breathing is a bit loud.
Is there a). Anyway to avoid...
Shopping for a used c70 I came across a unit at a camera shop for a great price. It was listed as being in excellent condition but with this notation: "Slight smudge/artifact on sensor. Does not seem to affect image quality." The shop sent me an image of the smudge which I have attached here...
How do you guys custom WB when you're solo run and gunning? I usually use a gray folding disc, but it requires me to have an assistant or place the disc down somewhere (propping it up) with the same light I'm balancing for. I've tried one of those white balance filters and found it wildly...
With the flood of new cinema cameras hitting the market (pretty much all taking aim at the fx3) one has to wonder when and how Sony will strike back? My wish list for an fx3 successor will have: 6K, open gate, triple base ISO, some form of raw, 16+ stops of DR, possibly global shutter, a larger...

Looks like Canon's finally making a "Canon fx3". Rumored to have open gate and a 32MP sensor, which strange if it's going to be a low light performer...
I'm planning on shooting a doc about alternative schools on my fx6. I already own a Tamron 28-75 2.8 and a Sony 24-105 f4. Would these two lenses suffice or should I add a third lens? Thanks
Sony finally raised their prices on some cinema cameras. The fx6 is now $6498 and the fx3a is around $4100. There was some talk of Sony raising their prices globally to offset price freezes in the US…Glad I bought in early

Did anyone else here go to BILD? This was my first one and it was way too overcrowded. Things settled down on the 2nd day, but on the 1st I couldn't get into one talk. Felt like BH superstore on steroids... I got into two talks on day 2 and the first was two twenty-something bros from England...
Sony has introduced the FX2. According to PetaPixel it reuses the A7IV sensor (33MP) and includes a tilting EVF. MSRP is $2700 without top handle/$3100 with handle. Also, uses Sony's newest AF system. I like the inclusion of the EVF, but Sony's sensor recycling is getting to be a bit much. Thoughts?

I had the fx6 for a few years, sold it, and then recently re-purchased. The fan seems a little loud on this unit, especially in “off when recording “ mode where it runs very high when not recording. I can’t really remember how my first unit behaved, but I don’t think I touched the default...
Excellent condition. Only 136 hrs of use. Functions perfectly. From later batch of cameras, so the LCD hinge is perfect. Beautiful DGO sensor with 16+ stops of dynamic range.
JUST HAD A FULL SERVICE DONE, INCLUDING DEEP SENSOR/ND FILTER CLEANING ON THIS UNIT
I’m including the CANON 0.71 FOCAL...
From cheap K & F variable ND filters to expensive Peter McKinnon I’ve never owned a VND that didn’t vignette or X at higher strengths on the wide end. Does anyone know of one that doesn’t behave like this or is it just inherent in their design?
Can anyone identify what this is? I've cleaned my c70 sensor about a dozen times and looked into the sensor block (ND filter lifted) with a flashlight and I cannot see whatever dust or debrus could be causing this (the spot is near the top of the frame, center right)
Any thoughts? Thanks
I was thinking of picking up an r5c as a b-cam to my c70. What attracts me is the lightweight form factor, full frame and higher resolution video. I don't shoot stills much. Thoughts?
