so since my last post, I shot as a 2nd/helper video in 3 weddings and 1 bar mitzvah and learned quite a lot. I learned more on the technical aide and also shooting and moving slower and less shaky. I am trying to grab all my gear purchases for summer work in addition to my mostly stills work...

so looking to buy a a7riii for video work as a gimbal camera. whats its max iso youd suggest to use with it? so saw this video comparing side by side a7iii and a7riii with the exact same gear. a7riii no crop in 4k, seems to be sharper too in 4k, very sharp in S35. I think its max decent amount...

I am a complete newbie for video. but what if the camera doesnt have responsive or snappy full time af? how can that work with a gimbal? I saw a friend shoot video with his 5dIII and he doesnt use a gimbal. so hes using this shoulder rig or monopod or handholding unless you have a follow focus...

Hey folks is there a product that can tell me how good a battery is? I need a better checker that can tell me if a battery is worn out or what condition its in. basically assess and tell me if it has some life in it or should be tossed. I use many AA nimh batteries for my flahses in weddings...

thinking about getting a used D800 for video AND stills, or for D750? is there such a huge difference in IQ? high iso noise..I dont plan to pass 3200 and mostly will be around 2000 minuses for the D800 in video? no aperture control in live view?

thanks for the reply. I realize there will be compromises. lag being one of them. im sure though itll be a ton better than using the dslr screen, no? im sure the more I invest the better the product. I cant afford a $500+ monitor as much as id want. not when starting. thats how it goes. you...

I used the transcend 600x 32gb SD cards when I was with my D600 and I read a post that it would hiccup at times because it wasnt fast enough. not sure how true this is. I currently have a D3 and D3s. selling the D3 and getting a D5300 and D750. the D750 will now be my main camera for stills (if...
