    From my experience, you won't get kicked out for like a phone/gopro but you get kicked out sometimes with a dslr, even moreso if you've got a decked out rig.

    I've had the C70 for 3 months, and at first I thought it was 'ok' but nothing I got overly excited about.
    But since getting the speedbooster I've really grown to like it a lot. I liked the speedbooster so much I made a video about it, and I'm still uncovering other lens / speedbooster combos that make the C70 a really flexible unit without carrying too much kit around.

      It does well for the size and price but the processing and noise/NR definitely comes up short against the c70 . I have both and the a7s3 definitely is more than good enough for some things especially if you need that size or can't afford more but it leans heavily on NR that you cant disable. C70 has a better sensitivity sweet spot and much more DR in that sweet spot. The a7s3 DR signficantly deteriorates past base ISO. Even though it improves at 12800 it definitely sacrifices quite a bit there as well. drive.google.com/file/d/1W3Y7D9SaWhhevSKuN1esB3814-N_aDtJ/view?usp=drivesdk

    One thing I've learned about filming in the midwest is that if you look like you know what you're doing, nobody questions you.
    I just got my C70 so I'm working through its quirks. So far I really like it, but I'm not totally in love with it like I wanted to be. noticeably
    I do have some quibbles. The big SUPER annoying one is that when you go from S35 4K mode to S16 2K crop mode and then go back to S35 mode, it doesn't automatically pop back up to 4K. That is so F-ing annoying. The A7R3 lets you pop in and out of crop mode with a single button assignment. The other annoying one is that to get Face detection slow mo shots, you have to shoot 59.94 FPS as opposed to using S&F mode. It just makes it clunky when bouncing around modes/frame rates/S&F. Plus, there's presumably a quality hit going 59.94 FPS compared to S&F 60. I do a lot of 60 FPS stuff, so it's a bummer to lose face detection in S&F. I'd also like to have full screen waveform instead of the tiny, nearly useless size it is now. I'm used to targeting a specific IRE with a white card. Can't really do that now at that small size. Looks like I'm switching to false color as my primary exposure tool!
    But overall, it's a great camera. Still waiting for the holy grail perfect camera!
