You're an inspiration to all of us with GAS, Norbro - you made it to the other side.

Image-wise the Blackmagic cameras are on par or even better than the fx5, but for my type of work (one man band run and gun doc) all of the BM cameras are non-starters for obvious reasons.

Good to hear. It's definitely a similar image to the Burano. I'm assuming you meant "image quality" not "sound quality" but the DGO is one of the reasons I'm purchasing it. I absolutely love the DGO sensor in my c70...

Probably purchased at the same time?

This may be a generalization, but it seems like prices are rising on just about everything, but quality is staying the same or declining.

Sorry, maybe you have to be logged in to facebook. Just a guy that bought 3 fx5's in Mexico and all three had the screen issue (unit separating from bezel)

This is not good... https://www.facebook.com/reel/1037116369365273

Your videos look very "cinematic" for want of a better term. I'm very hopeful that Sony has finally given us an image with excellent color, highlight rolloff and motion cadence. I've owned the a7siii, fx3, fx30 and fx6 and while they're great cameras I could never get an image I was one hundred...

Really jealous that you got a working fx5. Sony keeps pushing back the release date and it's super frustrating!

Thanks, these look great. Why is the first shot so fish eye if it's a 32mm?

Yeah, I have a buddy with a pyxis 12k and it has a great image, but in terms of how I work a total mismatch.

Saw that. Blackmagic definitely helping out low budget filmmakers... Blackmagic and Nikon are smart with their timing given the fx5 delays. They will definitely lure some people away...

That’s per month and for a one bedroom apartment not a house ;)

Thanks, most of the symptoms are gone except the fatigue and shortness of breath which are a PITA when you're lugging equipment. With my documentaries I work at my own pace and try to choose subjects that are a match for my stamina. I also have good days and bad days but three years on it's hard...

Hey, Rob. I don't do any production work any more. I was laid off from my full time TV job in the 2008 recession and the pandemic pretty much killed the freelance work I was getting and shortly after that I got long Covid and my health hasn't been the same since. At this point I hold a part-time...

You would think they'd have an option to overlay the OSD. My c70 even has this option...

Yes, and to your point gear has become much smaller and more accessible to the masses. An original AVID system was upwards of 50K if I remember correctly. I live in NYC and rentals and homes are ludicrously expensive in just about every neighborhood. Average rent is about $3700usd here... I do...

I don't disagree with you but the problem is most people's wages have not kept up with the rate of inflation.

Yeah, definitely hanging in. Also, who knows if Sony will increase prices - at least I’m locked in price wise. Did you see they just increased the price of the fx6 from $6998 to $7298? Crazy given Blackmagic lowering their prices
