I changed out my Sennheiser AVX to Hollyland M2/ M2s. I had previous experience of 2.5 GHz mic failing on me so I am kind of worried. But the AVX is getting obsolete and complicated that I want to sell them away. haha.

Not sure did you delete my comment?

Is there vignette with 24mm on crop/super/aps-c sensor? I dont mean fuzzy darkening, im asking if its blacked out.

We love the Dragon, and have two! Will be selling one of the Dragon kits soon, but we’ll hold on to the other for some time.

Ahh I’m still confused as to “if” you need a lens and what would be best - it would mostly just be travel photography

Image on the RedDragon is beautiful but BlackMagics workflow is seamless compared to a lot of what’s on the market and what’s been on the market.

You can’t adapt Sony e mount lenses to L mount

Crazy that I bought my RS2 for $1000 a few years back, and now it’s worth $250? Hahaha wow

The Epic has a dope specs !! i love mine

Man love your mindset on cameras and filmmaking👍 thx for making this kind of videos🫡😉

SWAT always know what they're doing

Funny how you talk about two cameras (fx3, a7sIII) having different dynamic range while in reality the both use the same sensor and processing and score identically to each other along with the smaller ZV-E1. Also RED dynamic range is somewhat inflated by the built in trickery of highlight recovery. It’s good to have but honestly not being able to turn it off is a bit shit.

Bro your argument for frame rates with the Blackmagic as you said you don’t use 120 and only need 92fps…

ALL THIS FOR 2500????????????????

I agree with you, but with the Sony Monitor and Control app the FX3/FX30 are much more like cinema cameras. I'm very unhappy with the framerate options on Sony. I think that is the biggest problem. Also the overheating with the ZV-E1 when used with external monitor and internal recording sucks bad, but the Tilta Cooling System is okay, you can just stick it on without the fan to stop it from overheating and turn the fan on between takes.

I will buy one in few days :) haha / i already have a Raven since 1 year :) / you true and other a jealous :) // you footage on this video are not graded or changed or worked ? they only exported from mag and showed ? Thanks :)

Great video, I loved your advice regarding rental house purchasing. This camera has such an epic look that still hits hard to this day! What follow focus is in that kit it looks awesome!

Those half century old microphones are also very coveteted and are worrh more than your average musician can afford, jif an FYI

Does it take third party media or is it part of the older RED generation that rely on aging unsupported proprietary media to work? I really like it but having to deal with Red mags would probably be a deal-breaker

You got me sold.... except that there's no RED Epic-X Dragon 6k on eBay at this price... haha...

Love to hear that your shooting with the Helios . That’s literally my favorite lens ever . I use it on every camera I own

I’ve been debating with myself on pulling the trigger on a RED Raven 4.5k . DSMC2 have the most compression control & roll off I’ve ever seen.

I have trouble choosing between a komodo/komoco-x vs ursa mini pro 12k olpf😅 please suggest

I switched my Dragon 6K X to a Komodo 6K after six years of it being my workhorse, and I don’t regret it. The main reason for the switch was the weight and size, but I definitely miss my Dragon sensor image and unique look. I was just starting to travel and it did more sense to me to a more friendly travel size

How about c70?

the lens is shimmed out of the box but if you are using an adapter you have to Re-shim it according to them. lot of amazing footage are out there... of course it was soft but not as you said. t2.8 is mostly the sweet spot for 45 and 65.

I am currently shooting my second feature "As Night Falls" on this camera, and I have to say it absolutely stunning. If you make sure you do your black shading and expose the sensor right, you can produce some beautiful images in low light. The granular feel coupled with how this sensor renders colours is simply stunning. Yes its an old camera but that image.... OHHHHH THAT SWEET IMAGE :). Great video mate

Wow man, thanks so much for this video.

Switched a year ago when my Sony a7iii died died.this camera tick every box for me

Great vid! What about Mysterium-X 5K?

I wish I had that camera set up. 😍

By the way, can you tell me Dragon X Scarlet 5k, Dragon X Scarlet 6k - are these all the same cameras as Epic Dragon X 6k?

Thanks for the review. Tell me, have you looked at the ARRI CLASSIC camera with a resolution of 2k prores? The price of both cameras is approximately the same.

I bought a DMC2 Dragon 6K as well and wow!!! I got the whole kit as well and you aren’t going to beat this image with any super 35 sensor. Great video!!!

Hell yeah! Got myself a dsmc2 dragon X for 4500 last march and could not be more happy! There is some quality life improvement over epic like ipp2 monitoring, prores recording ( good if you have to deliver that) and some noise improvement. Have worked with both fx6 fx3 and Black Magic Pocket before and mine gets even close to the quality and look of dragon.

This is ID tv ready 🔥

Emerald City, Bruhbruh!!! You have a new subscribe. Now, let's DO THIS!!!

By any chance, would you have a link where I can find one like that for $2500?

Man, since I saw one of your videos about buying a used Red Dragon for $2500. I think ima do just that over the others. For now ima enjoy my Lumix S5IIX.

The gear should be invisible to whatever you are trying to accomplish. Technically gear won't matter so long as it's not detracting from the vision often gear can actively get in the way.

No the Arri is

i don’t even have words to describe how wack and pretentious you are however i don’t hate the content of the vid

So i looked up this camera google is showing two versions. Is this the DSMC2 ?

I share your passion for the dragon sensor. Fx3 / Sony system can yield great image and have a lot of function (for events I wouldn’t trust another) but for actual cinematography work/ narrative, I’ll pick the dragon sensor. I’d go dsmc2 if the cash is there but couldn’t agree more about how special this camera is

..it's (real) garbage but if you can't afford FX3... oh well

probably not but it looks cool 😂

The S1 is definitely better than the FX3 minus the autofocus.

Compact camera but worst battery life

I like them but setup is confusing and audio lag is an issue especially in the same room. Ryan also hardly ever used his💀

You are very young and obviously sentimental but the reason you are getting so much pushback is your thought process. 1) You keep pushing the idea of a "true" cinema camera which is at least controversial at this point. You could at least take the time to provide a definition of the term. Also this kind of thinking is inherently incorrect since many of the cameras you mention do in fact get used for cinema applications repeatedly the last years. Studying the lists of cameras used in the most prestigious festivals you will see that the top spots are always Arri, Venice, film and then everything else. Red doesn't have any larger percentage over Blackmagic or Sony or even Canon. In certain instances Red is behind all these brands. 2) Your logic is inconsistent regarding how you evaluate brands. Most manufacturers exaggerate dynamic range including Red by your own admission. The only manufacturer who is always consistent is Arri. 3) You do not provide the whole picture regarding such a purchase. Red has stopped producing but most importantly servicing these older cameras. That means that should the camera have any problem you are on your own. And Red caneras do exhibit problems. Especially if we are talking about a heavily used rental item. * I could go into buying used rental gear but it is not the main point of the video. 4) If you take the time to observe the industry sphere you will realise that most (not all) prestigious cinematographers -and even content creators - tend to be agnostic regarding cameras. They are just tools and each brand has advantages and disadvantages. Presenting one brand as the ultimate solution is again a problematic view. Red does produce great cameras but they are far from the only option regarding good image quality. If Greg Frasier is not above using a Sony then maybe we shouldnt be either. If Deakins wasn't above using a baked in codec when he shot In time then maybe a raw codec isnt the end be all we make it out to be. In any case the omission of any possible drawbacks in your presentation doesn't inspire confidence in your thinking process. 5) If you want to be taken seriously when presenting a strong opinion on such a matter then your footage should be at the very least above criticism. I know what Red can produce in the right hands but using sub par footage doesn't help your credibility at all and that should be obvious. When you have a public platform you should give some thought before making a claim or presenting an opinion so that you make sure your conclusions do make sense and that you provide value to others. This will only help you both on a personal level since you will be forced to obtain some objective criteria in your thought process as well as on a business level since people will appreciate such efforts and respond accordingly. I do wish you the best
