    Thank you for mentioning commercial film makers - IE not Hollywood Cristopher Nolan types. I know people that film commercials, business to business videos, music, concerts, training videos, class rooms, seminars, etc. They do not need a $40k RED camera. They of course want it to look as good as humanly possible, but the margins just aren't there or worth it for what is gained. We are now at the point where our amateur concert footage or business training seminar videos will look ppreettttyyyy damn close though with the GH7.

    So to expose next to the arri do you bump iso to match being you prob dont change the lighting and retake for the Gh7 angle ?could you just run all audio off the gh7 w xlr2 and set record button to trigger all the cameras via atomos airglu for the sync process so all on file properly synced in cam Gh6? Or is wireless booms and lavs not good enough?🤯🤷Thank You.

      @renaissancedigital5730 19 днів тому +1

      M43 sensors don't let less light in than a full frame sensor. The DOF just appears differently. The GH7 at 800 iso would match the Alexa LF at 800 iso with the same lens and aperture.
      The only difference between sensor sizes is that they physically are different in size so the field of view is different(which effects how much DOF is produced).

    • @connormccaskill
      @connormccaskill  19 днів тому +2

      The camera really doesn’t make much difference for that. Really the focal length is what we needed to account for mostly.

  • @kinoromantic
    @kinoromantic 19 днів тому +2

    The soul of the video is in the production design, lenses and the lighting that was used. It’s nice that ARRI provides a color conversion interpretation for the GH7, but the same can be done with a lot of cameras that have log/raw capabilities. I doubt that the filmmakers who have the budget to hire ARRI will skimp on hiring a colorist or have DIT adapt other cameras to fit the needs of their production. It saves many minutes of looking at color charts and tweaking primary wheels - if, as a colorist, one is charging by the hour, it’s sure nice to have. Take any modern prosumer camera (a7siii, Fuji xt/xh, etc) they all have custom profiling capabilities - beyond initial ballpark, the rest is done by professional colouring skills if different sensor is used. ARRI is exceptional because of how close their sensors resemble each other - same can’t be said about Panasonic, Blackmagic and many others. That means that even by applying ARRI profile to a Gh7 you’ll still be left with production variations given the price point difference between the GH7 and the ARRI. The dream of “mini pocket ARRI” is still alive though and maybe we’ll see it for around 10-15k $ in the near future.

    • @connormccaskill
      @connormccaskill  18 днів тому

      Maybe so. I think what you are saying is mostly true, but I'd bet colorist have camera preferences for sure when it comes to grading. Some camera LOGs are just more challenging to deal with. So if LUMIX can use the ARRI standard, I think that'll be very appreciated long term.

      @kinoromantic 18 днів тому

      @@connormccaskill I’m all for cross-support and the removal of gatekeeping in the camera industry, because cameras we use is case sensitive and can vary even on one project. Manufacturers need to realise that “good image quality” has become so accessible there is very little point in bragging which is better, so why not let filmmakers the freedom to cross-use as many as possible for every budget line and for every crew size.

  • @iamkubrick
    @iamkubrick 18 днів тому +1

    Colour is nice … but the big thing that’s noticeable to me is the way the cameras render motion ( motion cadence) ARRI looks like film but the GH7 has that digital look ( slight soap opera effect ) . But it’s not too bad especially considering the price.

    I would think braw is a better codec than ProRes clog to match with other cameras and do heavy post production.
    But if you use braw through hdmi to a BM video assist, there is no way to add a video transmitter since it’s not a regular video signal going through the hdmi port? Or maybe the BM assist does it through sdi ? I know the Atomos doesn’t

      I don't disagree with that. That's why you should only give time to people who you think are on the up and up. For myself, I only take sponsorship from products that I either enjoy myself or that I think can be useful to others. I've had to turn down a bunch of deals because of that. I feel like a majority of "reviewers" that I personally know do the same. Also, I don't make reviews for products if it is sponsored, because I feel like it is more of a commercial or even just showing us using it in some way. It's a lot to covey in text so sorry for the longer message.
