My everyday carry is an original BM6K. It is a freaking gas. I shoot every day. Anything. And the footage ALWAYS looks effn great. Mine has been modded with the tilta screen and on board SSD. I have a neck strap attached to the base of the camera using Manfrotto mounts. From reaching into the bag to over the neck, powered up and recording is about 10 seconds. With the Sigma 18-35, holding the long heavy lens while focussing smooths out micro jitters. Variable ND's on the front makes shooting in blazing beach sun and inside night clubs easy. I love that it has been modded and want to get the speed booster upgrade to juice it up even further. I have a cardboard sun shield that velcros onto the screen and my cage is nothing more than a cold shoe mount screwed onto the top. And all the while it just looks like an old fashioned SLR so no one cares where you point it. The manfrotto foot lives on the base of the camera so it slips off the strap, onto the follow focus, tripod, monopod or gimbal in seconds. I detest nobbing around with tools when the action is swirling around. I had a Canon R6 and that thing destroyed more footage than I ever used. I was always second guessing its smarts and rarely found the autofocus set on what I needed so the shot was always gone by the time I looked up. Often a scene would call for nuance in the focus and this thing NEVER EVER got it. Call it user error if you like. I spent 6 months trawling youtube for answers. I practiced night after night. So many reviewers talking about how amazing it was - for them, and their style. On paper it is great. Out in the field it is a confusing design that defies user logic. It rattled my confidence. It undermined me. It made me anxious. It died from heat. While it was being repaired I was loaned a BM6K. I sold the Canon. The BM transformed me from a furtive photographer who sometimes recorded video to a story teller who seeks to engage people. And I am old.
@@aaronychoe Surfers Paradise is a street shooters dream. These vignettes give a taste of what the feel is here. I'm here to tell the story of this magnificently ridiculous city.
It was a pleasure to share my thoughts about this amazing camera. Thanks to BM, people like us are able to afford stunning image quality in our projects
Love the phrase - "You have to go look for the thing that works for You!" - How many of these talking head reviewers forget that in this industry? Too many - Great video.
