Panasonic AG-AF100 Introduction - MagnanimousRentals.com

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

Hello Slyndawg. The blur is a result of a slow shutter speed. The AF-100 can use a 180 degree shutter or adjust the shutter like you would on any other video camera. A high shutter speed will keep motion blur to a minimum. What you may also see is "ghosting." Ghosting is an issue with HDSLR sensors. To avoid the "ghosting" problem you should check out the NEX FS100!

Nice stock music! I dig it!

[@HollywoodConnection_LA]

hard to hear you....your background music too hot...

if i will be using Nikon lens for this camera, what conversion or adapter lens should i buy?

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

The AC160 and AF100 are two very different cameras with different applications. The AF100 has the option of interchangeable lenses, which is going to give you more versatility in image control, but lenses are going to cost more. We've seen great results with Canon EF and Ziess CP2s. The better the glass the better the results. The AC160 is going to be more inclined towards and convenient for events and documentary work, as you can move and adapt much faster with it.

Nice overview. I am looking at the same camera and I already have Canon L len's so the Adapter is a huge plus to me. 2 questions if you dont mind. 1st I am guessing the auto focus works with the adapter and keeps up when zoomed. 2nd what are you using for zoom control when on a tripod?

[@Mag1Pro]

Sometimes I'm with a client that wants to see a push zoom within the camera on a commercial shoot. Can you get a lens that will do that with this camera?

[@lfrohling]

great video :) How does this cam compare with the Canon XF300 (in terms of DOF) and Sony EX3/EX1r (in terms of low light)?

[@Rezaroth]

I'm learning about film-making now, would you recommend this camera over the panasonic ag-ac160? thank you for the most amazing review :)

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

Due to it's larger sensor the AF100 (4/3" single CMOS) will have shallower depth of field at the same distance, composition, and aperture as the XF300(3x1/3" CMOS) or EX(3x1/2" CMOS) cameras, due to different focal lengths required to fill and match the frame. The same would be true for the EX cameras when compared to the XF300.

hi there, excellent video! was just wondering about the motion blur i think i see when objects move by very quickly ie cars. I'm an event videographer (concert videography in particular) and my subjects tend to jump around quite quickly, so I'm pretty concerned about that. Any advice would be much appreciated : )

[@fourth1000]

is this camera as good as the Sony fs100? even if it doesnt have a full 35mm sensor?

[@wolfman8325]

wait, I thought the ag-af101 comes with a Panasonic Vario HD 14-140mm lense? So why are you using a lumix 14-140mm, or am i wrong?

[@PROFORMANCE]

Does the AF100 auto focus on the Canon Lenses?

[@jsmallz24]

I have recently purchased the a f100 and the 4/3 adapter for canon lenses for it also. But when I mount everything with the lense, my LCD screen is Black still. Is there a button I push or what? PLease let me know

[@HollywoodConnection_LA]

Hey guys this footage was shot all cinema mode I take it.... And it also shoots in regular 1080 60i ? How about 240fps ?

[@SilverioCampagnaFilm]

hello, I wanted to know what is the difference between panasonic 100 and 101 is just a matter of changing the number or quality of the images? between the panasonic 100/01 and 100 as the best sony nex? sorry for my english (by Lexicool) :) unfortunately for me I understand little of these reviews thanks for your attention

[@cbenpictures]

Hey man, what lens adapter is that? Thanks.

[@KlyzmTheFirst]

can’t see anything on mine

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

The Panasonic AG-AF100 does have a smaller sensor then the FS100, but we find that it holds up well against even the 5D MkII when used with the proper glass. We will be conducting a full test shoot and comparison of the FS100 with the AG-AF100 and 5D MkII. Stay tuned and decide for yourself.

[@cbenpictures]

Ok, thanks man.

[@bochnikov]

very interesting but we can't hear you properly... music is too loud !

[@SimplySmashingPro]

I........WANT ONE..........SO BAD!!!

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

@rzr219 We generally use a Redrock Follow Focus.

[@tueybooo]

They didn't make the AF100 to compete with DSLR, it just happens to.

[@will.bartlett]

The 5D is nice with it's larger sensor, but the 3 ND filters/ 2 uncompressed XLR with Phantom inputs/ Very little or no aliasing/ moire and rolling shutter/ Very clear flip out HD LCD/ view finder/ 2 card slots/ Really long battery life/ 12 hour recording limit/ HD-SDI out for 4:2:2 10 bit footage and a better compression made me decide to buy the AF100! Not to mention being able to shoot 60frames a second in full 1080p! Check out my channel for some AF100 footage!

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

Kipon Canon EOS Mount to Micro 4/3 adapter.

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

@SuperDashRendar Medeski, Martin, and Wood.

[@MagnanimousMediaChicago]

It does not.

[@beaubunuel6606]

As usual load music comes on and intrudes- just like an amateur would do

[@SuperDashRendar]

ewwww - just say the camera can't do that - protect your reel.
