Good Morning three years later! I actually bought my camera via GearFocus back in January 2021. Still have it and use it all the time. It was a barely used Fuji X-T3 with the 18-55 and other goodies. My favorite vintage lenses that I own are my FD 28mm f2.8, FD 135mm f5.6 and Pentax-M 50mm f1.7. Question: I've been looking for a wider focal length FD lens, like the 17mm or 24mm. But, the prices for those seem so much higher than what I paid for my others. Am I looking in the wrong places? Or, are those wider focal lengths really just that expensive these days? Thanks and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

I picked up an EF 24-105 to shoot with the R7 and the focus motor failed during production. Even though I shoot manual focus the lens became inoperable. I create a lot of sports video content so I’ve got to have a reliable workhorse and I just ordered the RF version. I should hope that a newer lens is less likely to crap out anytime soon. The 24-105 range is awesome for video production.

Someone just recommended this to me for shooting video for live theater. But the 30 minute video limit is concerning. How hard is it to get around that?

Thanks guy for the review, I think the wee bill 2 is not only better for what I Shoot it’s also the best value for the money!

That drone never stood a chance against Gerald Butler with a 12 gauge

Missed seing the SA control on a same picture.

ND filters?

Is this camera good for Astrophotography? I know it has a really good quality low light video but what about the low light pictures? Is as good as the videos?

Question the hero 10 black , my night lapse with an enduro battery goes 15 to 20 sec max with all timer setting at the min , any suggestions

Thank you! Really

I need for baseball video and photography indoors AND outdoors, but mostly at an indoor facility. I'm so lost and always get the zebra bars or too much blur.

Thanks bro

When pp of what the native Iso in Sony A7s mark 2 ?

t4 years later and I stile l use this! Sony FS5 + Metabones T Cine Ultra + Canon 24-105 F4, It's awesome!

u prob wont read this but PLS HELP ME I CANT FIND ANY GOOD TRIPODS :sob:

Why everybody complain about the weight, is too heavy BLA BLA 🤦🏻‍♂️

I’ve never had any professional camera but if I would buy one it would be this one. I don’t like all those other ones they feel kinda copy and pasted and they might work but this one for some reason is different to me and actually excites me to buy one

What really drives me nuts is when people don’t even tell the price

Still using it as my second camera with yongnuo lens 50mm 1.8 for dramatic deep color.

You can confirm no major brand is making a DSLR. *stares in Pentax* Go away

'Shaky uncontrollable look. IDK maybe that's your thing'🤣

PP11 open? Sony a6700

Thank you mate. My daughter is getting into film photography. So that she can one day use my entire collection of gears I accumulated over many years. I have assured her that a Fujifilm Extra 400 expired in 2020, will be fine. Your video has increased her confidence. Once again thank you and keep up the good work mate.

What mic you’re using for this video?

I have 2 of the 4k …plus other cameras but black magic are my favorite ❤

It looks retroooo I like

can someone tell me why there's no monitor in the video camera?

dang. No one mentions This as a B cam for night time. A low price Low light camera. No everyone goes "as a daily this is silly" I just need a camera at night time I dont want to carry lights. I dont even want it now

Make a bullet point?

I have never had the over heating issue. Don't mind the menus. The interfacing with the Sony imaging edge software is shockingly bad. NFC never connects Need to re-establish a new connection every time i connect the camera as it never picks up the previous connection. If you flick to another app whilst connected it will drop the connection. ...But it is a great low light camera.

So I have 2 in 1

I have had video cameras since the Sony High8 Handycam. Then hybrid cameras such as the 5D MkII and the Canon R6. None of those cameras made me actually feel like a story telling film maker. Yes they could record. Yes it could look nice. But the BM is a machine that changes the way you think and see. It respects a singular purpose. Its controls are all where you need them. It gives you confidence that it will catch the image while giving you ridiculous latitude in settings for you to bend later. Just point it and hit record! And the pro tips; put your hand back on the lens, use a strap, leave the gimbal at home, and turn it off between takes.

Is it worth to buy this camera for $600 in 2024? on ebay

How do these compare to the actual trekpaks?

I was ready. To sell my gh5 And by this Sony, until I saw the review.And now i'm going to keep my gh5

What lens did you use for this video?

SO I have 400 film that is 20 years old. I get that I drop it down to 100 for the ISO setting, but when I drop it off for developing, do I have them develop at 400 or tell them to develop at 100?

my dad gave me this but it's by tamron (103A), it goes with an adaptall2 nikon adaptor, i use it on my d200 n d610 mostly for macro shootings cheers

I’m hoping to get this for Christmas for my Canon 90D!

Great vid! I recently bought Minolta X700 for 80 euros. Works perfectly and is a true competior for the canon 👍

Unfair for drone to not allow to attack shooter.

I wanted to watch but no sound?

Wish they made it just a little longer. A 14-45 or 14-50 would have made it just the perfect everyday and travel lens.

This camera is perfect for parachute scenes. 1 battery per jump.

OMG this is exactly the video I needed lol I’m torn between the EF and RF version. I’m just a hobbyist and can get a used EF for a third of the price of a used RF. Seems like the difference isn’t THAT significant if you aren’t a professional. Thanks!

From everything that I have seen, it only makes sense to buy the RF version of a lens if it is your daily driver or the lens you use the most to make money with. So I picked up the RF 600mm f4 because that is what I use most of the time and I wanted to lose the extra weight. Other than that you probably can do very well with your EF lenses and I intend to keep mine until they break.

Great job Dan!!!! Very helpful tutorial. All the best to Gear Focus!

Thank you, Dan! This was the best and most straightforward tutorial I have seen in the creative space! I appreciate you taking the time to create this content to help us understand and set up this amazing camera. Do you have any videos or suggestions/recommendations for setting up the 6K when shooting indoors versus outdoors and the same question for low light conditions? Any recommendations would be great to experiment with as I am sort of new to BlackMagic 6K usage. Thank you!

I feel the AE-1, as good as it is, is also overhyped driving the prices up. I have found some old Minoltas and Nikkormats rather much cheaper n better deal for the price.
