Af100 vs FS100 vs F3 (and 5dmk2): Part 2

[@philipbloom]

@kleyon11 lost me on point 1, F3 cannot shoot at 30db....point 2. That was shot at Christmas 2010, if you search my videos you will see the whole piece. It was a pre-production loan camera.

[@philipbloom]

@ScaryHands little but if friendly advice...always read the video description. :)

[@motionman0]

Damn! The 5th time that I have watched this video. But this time I sit here watching with my new Sony NEX FS100. Thanks Philip!

[@majorvisionproductions3531]

thanx for the download That was some vital info esp. for a beginner . I just bought this camera and its AMAZING! ALL my content on my page is shot with the fs100..

[@islandboystv]

Just a thought for some of you. The FS100 can be shot upside down with the view finder under. I myself and many others have done that in a pinch. I also invert my view finder. Don't forget to flip in post.

[@pedrosttau]

Definitely reminds of me of the epic, too, and I have a hunch we are starting to see a standardization of this "shape" by the industry, and ergonomically it makes sense.

[@danpoleon]

The 3 cameras are fantastic... but your review was Super Fantastic! Thank you... Going for the AF100A best combo for my GH2!

[@briantuohy1773]

anyone else expect a murderer to pop out and the whole thing to turn into a short horror film when that door opened? maybe thats just me... haha

[@hackstone]

One thing I notice again and again is how the AF100 has more of a film look than the other two. They all have shallow DOF and 24p but only the Panasonic looks like film while the other two look like 24p video. Not sure what it is but Panasonic has always done an amazing job with the film look.

[@pstchaseki]

Killer DSLR....the next version of the 5D??? Wondering if Canon is going to increase the price. Let us hope NOT, or not by much!

[@Emiliovstheworld]

would you still recommend getting this camera. for like $1200?

[@JediFarce]

Philip does the best reviews.

[@AliHmza14]

I have the same camera and I want to put this lens Possible detail and where I find on the net and Adpetr

[@SilverioCampagnaFilm]

hello what is the difference between ag af 100 and ag af 101 unfortunately I can't follow your words because my English is not very good :) thanks Mr. Bloom

[@ajmedia1274]

Am I right in saying that if you have vfr on in F1 on the AF100 it won't record audio? Even though sound bars active and audio through headphones?

[@dkbiketrialchannel]

it's pure therapy watching his reviews!

[@elton590]

Phillip stop at 11:26 looks like the guy with the slr is using your pocket dolly am i right or wrong ?

[@luismiguelsilva9903]

Hi Philip. what's the name of the music used in the begining of this tutorial? It's not the Stardust Nathalie from Nat King Cole as you say in the end of this tutorial !!! Thank You.

[@ShuPortraits]

no hd-sdi output? so my outdated xh-a1 has something this fancy-pants new camera doesn't?

[@RavenscreekPictures]

Great job. Your reviews are really supurb, thank you for taking the time! I have one question. I have a number of Canon EF lenses and wanted to know if these will work on the Sony FS100 or the AF100 with an adapter. Meaning it is possible or just a simple no. Thank you in advance

[@TheShockwave44]

Plethora of holes we can screw...

[@MEM90s]

Is the 24p firmware (for the FS100 UK version) already out ?

[@roodick85]

😍😍😍just got my F3 with an Atmos ninja for 900 dollars

[@megamattzero7348]

How to liking the combo? I saw a F3 for $800. Im looking to do narratives with heavy VFXs

[@SoundSpeeding]

Ditch the Ninja!!! It is only HDMI

[@mammadreza_najafi]

hi , Whats the best Metabones for the Canon full fram lens to sony fs100?

[@namsseff]

Love the bolex in the background! Which one??

[@nomanoki]

After my mk II and the nx5, I think the fs 100 will be my next baby. Great video! Thx. Greetings from Austria. Martin

[@Dominion-1]

PMW-F3 Video? 1. Philip I love the video using the Sony PMW-F3 buuuut, I noticed for the Sony FS100 & Panasonic AF100 you placed subtitles on the video which basically says I shot with this camera at this setting but with the PMW F3 you don’t specifically say that the video was shot with the PMW F3 it just says “SHOT AT 30DB.” 2. How did you shoot a woman decorating a Christmas tree in May/June with the PMW-F3 yet the camera was not available until 2011? I’m not saying….I’m just saying ;-)

[@sugars01]

can u plz advice what the best direction to go for a cam after watch ur review i think i shot stay with dslr. i presenty shoot with hxr ncam 5u but it does give me a cinematic shot. can u plzz help me with this decision??

[@TVperson1]

I'm not convinced by CMOS, I'm thinking of a second hand f900 with SDI adapter.

[@diegodimas]

Dear mr.bloom would get your hands and your review on A99 ? Tq

[@rtleeson]

how's the depth of field indoors with 27k tungsten ? Is it larger than Canon ?

[@Superfoot]

What did you record the sound with? What brand of lavs? etc etc lol

[@JoshuaBeeLoved]

Why did your door open up by itself at 2:08.....

[@FerdinandKoestller]

Whats the viewfinder called ? IVF ? thx :D

[@megamattzero7348]

Hey Phillip. I know its 2020! But i saw the Sony F3 for $800 now on EBAY. Would you still recommend the Sony F3 for narratives? I knows its only 1080p but that 4:4:4 seems amazing at $800. I'm coming from a Sony A7iii and A7sii realm looking for a dedicated cinema camera.

[@SoundSpeeding]

"Depends" Can you put up with its weight and the hassle of external recording? Remember, you could get a BMPCC4K for the same cost as an F3 kit!

[@megamattzero7348]

@@SoundSpeeding More looking to use it for VFX green screening. 4:4:4 seems grand for thaf. Blackmagic or Zcam all the way for every day shooting.

[@SoundSpeeding]

@@megamattzero7348 you'll need to remember to get only an F3 that has had the paid RGB upgrade, and you'll also need a recorder capable of 444 as well

[@megamattzero7348]

[@verheul32]

Where do you get the music for your vids?

[@SomeLittleShoe]

Now the GH2 hacked and/or GH3 need to be included in these video comparisons. In about a year, the GH4 with it's super secret improvements I've heard a bit about, will blow away the GH2/3! (if what I've heard about GH4 is true) Also, I just read this morning a GH3 hack is a work in progress. CAN"T WAIT!! :-).... is that Driftwood I see coming ashore?!

[@Greatmotherofgod]

I shot timelapse with an adjustable slow shutter on my AG-AF100.... It works like a champ in low light with a slow shutter......=) I don't understand your comment about no slow shutter?

[@javelinxd44]

New canon 5D mark iii is a pretty killer DSLR

[@SunsetRC]

Wow, what mic are you using? Pre-amp?

[@elfivideo]

why on 22:49 and 23:07 movie is backward ??

[@paulandvy]

What lens do you have on the FS 100?

[@tophtml1]

Philip, I always visit your channel for the best reviews and this one certainly lives up to that high standard. I have the NEX-EA50 which shares some of the criticisms lodged at the FS100. As you stated in the video, expecting that some company will come up with the "perfect" camera is unreasonable and each individual has a different version of a utopian camera for which work arounds must be employed (C'est la vie). After establishing the 180° shutter angle, iris and gain, I leave the actual exposure to a variable NDX filter. A simple enough solution for a camera which meets my other needs at a price point with which I can live. While, admittedly, the APS-C sensor of the EA50 is no match for the Super 35 of the FS100 (and FS700), perhaps the EA50 would be worth a review?

[@georgielol]

Isn't super 35 almost the same as APS-C ?

[@tophtml1]

Đorđe Gajanin The Super 35 and the APS-C sensors are, approximately, the same size but that is where any similarities end. The Super 35 is optimized and engineered around video while the APS-C sensor began in still photography. The arrangement of photo sites and low megapixel count (3.43 MP for the FS100 and 8.3 MP for the FS700) makes the S35 sensor much more suitable for video. This allows the video stream to be removed from the sensor and processed accurately at a much higher rate than the APS-C and reduces such problems as rolling shutter and moire.

[@georgielol]

I know .I waa mainly talking size. I still dont know why its called the way it is (S35)

[@tophtml1]

Đorđe Gajanin Excellent article regarding your question here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_35

[@georgielol]

thanks so much !!!!

[@dustinkruisman]

RED Scarlet :) I know it wasn't out back then but yeah.

[@philipbloom]

why? World format people will understand. Let's cut through jargon and give facts.

[@albodoin]

Right now you can get the af100 used for about 1000$ compared to the fs100 at 2000$ ans f3 at 4000$. For my uses I'll get the Panasonic for low budget production and rent a Red or Arri for bigger ones.

[@simonfil2]

I made my own comparison between the fs100 and the 5DMKII. Tested a variety of different lenses in a studio enviroment just to test the general image quality in terms of sharpness and detail. You can check it out on my channel.

[@mycompasstv]

AF100 design reminds me of my old CP16.

[@BigAntVideo]

Really great to see objectivity in a review. I get so tired of fanboys; technology is a tool and as you say, they all have good and bad.

[@obogatic]

THAT IS WHAT I CALL GOOD NEWS! where did you read about GH3 hack?

You can try to message KZbin user named MacWarMedia2. He may, or may not, reply to you about it. He makes nice test videos of GH3's.

Hi there, are you familiar with "photo SFX art" (do a Google search for it)? There you can watch a nice free video showing the right way to create incredible photographs. It helped Joe to make photos that have a jaw-dropping-effect while you take a look at them. It might help you out as well.

I hate when companies charge for firmware, thats bullcrap i paid for the camera and if firmware can make it better it should be free!

[@derrickforeal]

Blackmagic cinema is giving all these companys a run for the money. Panasonic Sony will never be able to release a camera at their quality under 3000 let alone at 2000 with their software black magic land but, war is over everything looks good enough
