    Here' a cool idea I'd love to see you try: you could adapt the micro 4/3 .64x adapter to Sony using the 30-dollar Fotodiox adapter... it wouldn't have any electronic connection, but it would be kind of awesome to get that much light and FOV on the raw mode for the fx30!

    I assisted on a shoot this weekend and the DP did something similar. The footage was better than my Sony body and native lens. Kind of frustrated because I bought a bunch of e mount lenses and to even use this approach I would need canon lenses. SMDH.

    Great stuff. BTW, I tried the locking cine version of the M43 to EF .64 Speedbooster a few years ago and the locking mechanism wasn't compatible with lenses with a rubber gasket. Based on that experience, if people plan to use photo lenses with weather sealing, I'd recommend getting the regular version like you have

      @@ReachFilms Thanks for the quick reply. From your experience how much of a hit does the autofocus take when using the Metabones speedbooster? I'm saving up to get an FX30 later this month, and my only real worry is the low-light performance. Having an extra stop of light from a speedboster would help out with that I imagine.

      @norgerichard 3 місяці тому

      The speedbooster makes your camera a low light beast.. But the autofocus is slow..
      When I first bought it, the autofocus did not work.. After firmware updates, it does work now, but it is slow.

      Unfortunately, for the whole RAW video set up it isn’t good for run & gun filming as being able to just use the camera with a lens. You have a lot more going on with the set up so in order to do the tests especially weight wise. I had to be as efficient as possible because it still took longer than you think.

Maybe, but you made a comment and I’m being brutally honest.

  • @MindzEyz
    @MindzEyz 9 місяців тому +3

    Hopefully constructive criticism is ok. This video is almost unwatchable for me because of the jittering. When I see this, it's normally because of 24fps. I don't know if you used 24p, but it's a super common biproduct of that. People tout 24p as king, but it literally makes me queazy on UA-cam. I really wish folks would stop listening to that advice. It's only cinematic at the cinema. on a 60, 120, or 240hz display, it's just missing frames and becomes janky. I swear this is no criticism to you or your content. Please look into shooting in divisions of 30 and do some tests to see if you can see what I mean. There really isn't anything wrong with smoothness. If you aren't even using 24, and maybe cranking the shutter please forgive. I just want you to know that it is noticeable. God bless. Note: I have gigabit internet and a very fast set of computers both Mac and PC, and a couple of high framerate TV's in which to view content and it's the same on all, here and away from home. Again Thanks for all you do.

    • @ReachFilms
      @ReachFilms  9 місяців тому +5

      Hey! Yeah man as long as you are respectful (which you totally are) write what you want! The main thing is, most people who use this raw video mode are not making videos for UA-cam, so to film it in 30p doesn’t really help as they (and I) will be filming in 24p for client/commercial/doc work. So although in some cases on UA-cam it looks weird since it favors 30p, it’s not genuine to show content that would be captured in 24p, and film 30p instead just for UA-cam. Again UA-camrs are not really going to film on this kind of setup as it’s the law of diminishing returns

      @eddieriosyt It's ok. Some people are very sensitive to framerates. Believe me when I say you don't want to see it, because once you do, it ruins a ton of otherwise beautiful content. Gerald Undone has a very detailed video explaining the phenomenon. Big studios have calculators that they use to minimize the effect because the effect is common. It's definitely a thing. The author of this video knows that I mean no disrespect.
