C100: Coming from a HPX250

[Doug_EX]

Does anybody knows if the C100 gives a more detail image than a GH3?

Does anybody knows if the C100 gives a more detail image than a GH3?

By far.
Look, I've shot with the HVX200A (same thing as hpx170), 5d's, Af100, the hacked Gh2, onto the Gh3, onto the Blackmagic cam, and have rested on the C100. The C100 is the best camera (for me) that delivers the fine balance of image, color, detail, lowlight and full package of having built in ND, waveform, XLR and great sound, ergonomics, and sensor size. Put a Ninja on it and you basically have the C300 if you "need" the 422.

I'm sure some will disagree here with the above. But I'm also positive that those that HAVE the C100 here will easily agree with the above.

Thank you very much for your response. May I ask you what lenses you use with your c100.

16-35 v1
17-55
35 1.4

Looking at the Sigma 18-35 and maybe the 24-105 if it performs better than Canons

Crap... I have too many lenses. Wait... No I don't!

Three day rental for $259 (that's how I tested the C100).

See if they ship to Canada.

I can't compare the C100 to a GH3 but before I bought my C100 I saw this comparison between the C100 and a 5D Mark3 as this was originally my first camera choice. http://hamptonroadstudios.com/for-filmmakers/2013/03/canon-c100-vs-5d-mark-3-comparison and I was sold on the C100. The detail is a big issue to me and this fitted my budget coming from Canon DSLRs.

Just ordered the combo C100/24-105 and a tokina 11-16. Can't wait to start shooting!

 

[Curnsie]

You will love it.

 

[Doug_EX]

I think I will

Just received my C100 with the 24-105 f4 (Tokina 11-16 will arrive tomorrow) and shot a bit just after unboxing it in the parking lot. Not a very conclusive test...but for now, I will just say wow!
