    Great video Gerald, I still think it's silly that Canon added 8K video on the R5 without any active cooling but limited the C70 to 4K. Honestly, the C70 should have been able to record minimum in 6K and also in RAW to compete with cameras like the RED Komodo. This is a great camera but also a strange one in the Canon Eco system because we know it's capable of doing more.

    Great review as usual. The Canon manual focus guide is second to none in my opinion. I'm glad they are incorporating it in their newer cameras. I love that you mentioned that the C70 could be what Canon owners have been looking for that is equivalent to what Sony is offering. It doesn't have to have all of the exact same features, but just enough to make it compatible so that Canon owners don't have to completely change systems if they are already heavily invested in the system. Thanks again.

    Hi Gerald, Your reviews are always fantastic and I thank you a lot for making them (from France). There is only one thing that you never talk about, is the ergnomics for TV work like with the camera on the shoulder for an entire day. With all the ports on the side of the operator (like in all DSLR) and the screen on the back of the camera, you have to add an extra EVF + rigging and powering solutions which kill the "run and gun" ergonomics... Of course you can't talk about all ways of using a camera but the "cat over the shoulder" (we french like a lot) seems very important to me when you think about buying a buying a camera. We are not all youtubers. But still, thanks a lot for your contents.

      @@bradleyc6564 the RF mount supposedly has the same flexibility as it has a smaller flange distance then the EF mount. At least that is my understanding.There may be 3rd party companies working on a adapter for the RF mount. It just seems the fx6 gives a bit more for the price with low light, raw capability, and full frame. Its a hard one for me. I will decide by end of this year.

    • @fergus.hammond
      @fergus.hammond 4 года назад

      @@bradleyc6564 I think the point is that both Sony and Canon cameras are so good, that most people will choose the one they’ve already got lenses for. While you can put a Canon EF lens on a Sony camera, the autofocus performance is going to be worse than using a native E mount lens. (Which doesn’t mean you have to use a Sony lens: Sigma makes E mount lenses that have great autofocus.) I also don’t think it’s possible to put a Canon RF lens on a Sony E mount camera or vice versa.

    • @fergus.hammond
      @fergus.hammond 4 года назад

      @@d.edwardsfreelanceeditorvi4212 One other thing you might want to consider is where and how you’ll be using the camera. I think the FX6 has an edge of the C70 for outdoor shoots where you’re frequently moving - documentation, wildlife, etc. In those situations, being able to use an EVF (by adding a loupe to the LCD) on the FX6 will be very appealing. I’ve got an a7S and an FX9 and even though the a7S has a wonderful, big touch screen, I almost never use it outdoors; the EVF is better because it’s easier to see in the sunlight and having my eye up against it helps to stabilize the camera.

    • @angryrabbitproductions1690
      @angryrabbitproductions1690 4 года назад +2

      How is the Red better in quality? I’m confident you’ll learn the Red has less Dynamic Range than the Canon and Sony. Don’t buy the marketing hyped “16+“ stops. Also the Redcode on the Komodo is inferior to the Redcode on other Reds... so no codec advantage. Native RF glass is unsupported. The touch interface is a laggy hit mess. It has but a single card slot. Battery life is abysmal. No stabilization... at all. No NDs... you get the point.
      On so many levels Komodo is years behind the cameras you mentioned.

    Outstanding as always. I note the deer is desperately searching to a way out of the Canadian winter.
    Good luck with that!

    What's up everybody, my name is Gerald Undone and I have more cameras than clothing.

    Absolutely love your reviews, Gerald. Felt like early Christmas seeing this video in my recommendations this morning. Thanks you.

    LOL. I don't usually have trouble following your rapid fire delivery, but I tried your suggestion of playback speed of 75% just to see what you meant. Yep, you almost sound like someone speaking in normal conversation where I live in Atlanta, GA in the U.S. South. I still prefer your rapid fire, though. I feel like I get an hour of information packed into 20 minutes. Thanks for what you do, and making it fun while you're at it.

    Even more excited now for my pre-ordered C70 - especially with the "Undone" Seal of Approval! ;)

    I dunno how to best put it, BUT the C70 IS a compact cinema camera which means it will possibly be used for on the go filming. But it is lacking in IBIS, a viewfinder for outdoors and extreme lighting, a full frame sensor for both low light and to fully utilize the wider RF full frame glass for situations where you aren’t on a set and can’t have your camera back to capture the whole room. For someone doing a higher budget production on a set where you don’t have to overcome some of the environmental problems of not having a viewfinder and you have a whole studio to back away from the subject and stuff then you have the budget for a camera that can do raw and other stuff. I like the thought of the C70 and almost ordered one, BUT it doesn’t seem like the best choice in its segment especially for the price. If you can do raw full frame 4K from a full frame camera at the $3500 price point. It sort of makes this a tough sell. Like Gerald says, if you are already in the Canon ecosystem it’s a good camera... but I think that implies there are better if you are not tied to any brand.

    The review I've been waiting for! Your closing thoughts are exactly what I was thinking. A7siii is so similar in terms of imagine quality yet cheaper, smaller, Full frame, better autofocus and viewfinder. So difficult to decide what to go for. Got Canon lenses and shoot C200, Pocket 4Ks however want something easy to travel with and shoot without rigging.

    I've already ordered one and one big issue (to me) I just realized is, it ONLY takes 24V via DC IN. This means that there are no batteries out there V-Mount or otherwise. I like V-Mounts for their long battery life, flexibility, and cost savings overall ... now I've got to spend crazy amounts for the BP batteries since I shoot 8-12 hour days.
    I actually reached out to Canon and they told me the power info on their site for this camera is wrong and the manual is correct and the only power they recommend for the DC IN is their power adapter, but they actually reached out to engineering and said they they only have the 24V voltage listing. There are expensive 26V batteries (no v mount plates) but canon couldn't confirm what any voltage tolerance was and whether it could damage the camera.
    Like how is it one of their smallest cinema cameras requires more power than any other canon cinema camera and they changed the voltage from every other camera they offer, so that professional cinema batteries won't work but now someone will have to make some niche power adapter/battery/cable and it'll be like 2K on it's own. (I found a 24V Arri power solution that was about that cost).
    Any solutions Gerald?

    You are right. Everyone is different and the needs are unique to each person. For me, being a commercial shooter, having no SDI is the deal breaker.
