Which rig would allow me to get “The Office” style zooms while filming?

The Office was shot on Sony broadcast style cameras, I think the SRW9000? These are 2/3” CMOS with a B4 mount common to most broadcast cameras. The lenses used on these kinds of cameras are often extreme focal ranges, like 8mm-120mm, and usually are par focal, allowing those crash zooms to be extra

New Canon Cinema Camera (thoughts)

What do you mean? As an FX3 user for 4 years, the only things I don't like about the C50 is the lack of IBIS and the RF lens ecosystem. Otherwise, it basically kills the fx3 in every way. 7k internal open gate in raw, top handle with XLR's, smaller body than C70, etc. Would love to know what makes y

Would it be a good option to buy an fx3a?

What evidence points to you believing there will be an fx3 mk2? Search the history here and like every other post is something exactly like this. Nobody knows, but it's more likely they update the fx6 before. The fx3 is a great camera, even if a mk2 comes out. If you have "new camera" money and need

Need help with camera purchase: fx30 or fx2 with steep discounts.

100% the FX2. The price difference just isn't big enough to bother with the FX30. You get full frame, an EVF, AI autofocus, a mechanical shutter, and a new, beefier fan. Since it's going to be a backup for the FX3, going with FF makes matching your shots and sharing lenses so much easier. You also w

Why are some comments on fx30 so vicious, is it that bad if a camera doesn't perform insane in low light? I would love to hear your thoughts on it, previous users and industry professionals.

I've used the FX30 for everything from filming concerts in dark clubs to documenting US Air Force operations. Its a stellar camera. Its a great compact size that is a great platform to be rigged out for bigger productions. There are decades of S35 cine lenses that can be adapted to it and it has jus

Lumix S1 II or Sony FX3 for Sports Indoor Photography

Sony for lens selection and autofocus. I don’t have the FX3 but I use the A7siii which is basically the same sensor

Went to 'cinematic' stills & video meet up. Created this and tried to use sound design to create a narrative with the limited shots. Feedback always welcome!

I am very grateful that I’ve had opportunities where people have seen my work and have wanted to pay me to create so that I can have the cameras I have, very grateful. The fx3 is an amazing camera and I hope that your dream comes true!! For stills I have the A7R IV which I love too! Nothing beats So
