    For video work.. Almost all cinematographers uses F 2.8 and above. That's on a cinema camera(almost crop sensor size) so that's equal to f 4.5 etc. F1.8 or even f2.8 on a full frame is too shallow DOF and you can't see the scene.. I don't understand why people think small F value is more cinematic.. It is NOT. F 4 is a great aperture for filmmaking.. You really don't need the below.. Hollywood doesn't use :) Great video. Thanks

    Who vlogs anymore' - surely the main use for these cameras today are content creation for social media. That means vertical video. I find most RUclips reviews on these cameras are completely out of date with what's going on. I don't care myself, but I feel sorry for people getting misled when purchasing what can be very expensive equipment. I think RUclips content is the biggest culprit for this, the only time I see people walking and talking is camera reviews, who are describing a style of video that has long disappeared. If your a travel vlogger you'll just use a Pocket 3 or a action camera, your not going to use this camera.

    Great video. I have ZV E10 and I am looking to get this lens, I was looking at Sigma 16, or Sony 11, or Viltrox 13, but from your video, it might look like this could be the better option. I am also looking at getting A6700, just a bit concerned about overheating at 4k60. I would be using the camera for filming shorter clips, like event videography, Camera on and off, but using it half a day or so, what do you think? Did you have any issues?

  • @hellopsp180
    @hellopsp180 Месяц назад

    Honestly What constitutes as "Heavy" is different for different people. But yes Objectively FF Setups are "Heavier" in comparison to APSC setups. But there's no equivalent to all FF lenses on APSC. Which completely negates the weight saving you were trying to get from APSC

    • @Davidmccombs
      @Davidmccombs Месяц назад

      True. But you’ll always get more wide or more telephoto for a fraction of the weight. For example, the Sony 11 1.8 is like a lbs lighter than the 16mm 1.8 FF. The only similarity they share is the focal length bit something worth considering if you need weight savings.

    Hi, one of the issues with this monitor is the weak USB C ports on the back. What you can do is tie the USB C wire around the stand, leaving enough slack for the cable. These ports are very delicate. This way, there are no external stresses being applied to the USB C port, as the slack in the wire compensates for it. Hopefully this should extend the life of the monitor
