Hey fellas. I have been tossing back and forth the idea of selling my A7SII and A6500 to put towards a couple of Canon cameras. I have had my eye on the 1DX MK II and the 5D MK IV. I only have Canon L lenses and have been adapting them to my FS7, A7SII and A6500 for a while now. I like the results I get, but I desperately want to have native autofocus for both photos and video, especially when shooting run and gun video in the mountains where pulling focus is hard for me to do by myself. I also really like the thought of having 4K 60p in the 1DX MK II and feel that I would really benefit from it.
My question is about cutting footage from these two cameras with my FS7. One of the reasons I'm having a hard time making this switch is that the footage from all 3 cameras I own can easily be cut together. I use S-Log3/S-Gamut3.Cine on the FS7 and can achieve similar color on the A7SII and A6500 making matching in post a breeze. The 1DX MK II and 5D MK IV both have excellent color (color I actually prefer), but I am not sure of how difficult it would be to match the FS7 to them, or vice versa.
Do any of you have experience cutting footage with Canon cameras like these to the FS7? Is it going to be a pain, or are there ways to make it relatively simple to match?
