Preeeeeeeeeecisely. I'm not sure why we are all pretending that every job we do is a tentpole feature film shooting on Master Primes. Jib and steadi ops at music festivals, documentary work,...
If you can bring yourself to embrace FCPX, you'll be happy. It dynamically throttles the debayer on playback, and the quality is fine for viewing. You can do good color grades. You can view full...
This is so weird...curious what platform you guys are using. My 2013 trash can (not maxed out) doesn't have much trouble with 8K. Just did a test: 8K raw with a multi-layer color grade applied, took...

-At this point, the Ranger version of the Gemini is so cheap, it's actually more cost effective to just get that rather than kit out a DSMC2 base. Then you'd have a powered XLR port in camera, and...

Here's some perspective I can offer. I film wildfires...it's a very dynamic, hazardous, and unpredictable environment. For the past few years I've relied on the Sony FS5 with an Odyssey. Served me...
Boy oh boy are we spoiled. Both of those images look pretty amazing lolol.
General rules for Gemini:
-LL mode will reduce your DR a bit. If you're going to be at 800ISO, you should just be in...
Given that most of us make money off of our REDs, it's not debt, it's an investment. Why delay that profit by dropping smaller $5k/$10K/$15K debt bumps on un-rentable cameras along the way? If you're...
