Happy Wednesday, what are some cameras I should checkout and test?
try the RED V-RAPTOR XL when it's available to rent, You want something new so Mirrorless, Canon/Sony Cinema Cameras aren't something new You already tried them all...so RED V-Raptor now or RED V-Raptor XL.
the c70 is fire. you should try the sigma fp camera the specs and quality are amazing and it will be dope to get your opinion on it.
FX6 comparison!
Great vid! Would love to see you compare the C70 to the Sony FX3!
I would love to see your thoughts and usage on the FX3
Im so glad we live in an era, where we have SOO MANY GOOD OPTIONS (Sony, Canon, Blackmagic etc) but be loyal to a brand that matches our own technical AND emotional preferences. I am Canon all day everyday, but my BEST FRIENDS, who are so talented as well, are Sony. Much love, and much peace to all us creators. We make the world better.
Red❤
🙏May more blessings come your YC.. you've been a great inspiration to a lot of us
The C70 is truly a GOAT camera. It is my very first canon camera too and didn’t really like canon beforehand. The C70 changed my mind for sure!!!! I’m glad it’s working for your workflow and the direction your career is going bro!!!
@MEDiAgamer agree 💯 we use them in our collective. They have several issues we are addressing as we do more corporate and higher end videos. So far sony has been the best overall and blackmagic 4k for our livestreaming. There is always a "I'll excuse because of price i paid to get _____" once you start seeing $$,$$$ day rate for 3 to 4 person teams. Then it all changes because budget goes out the door 🚪
Thanks YC! Great video. This is the next camera on my list. Would love to learn how you use LUTs with the C70 and what your workflow/process looks like for color correction and grading.
Thanks! I have a few BTS projects here on the channel that briefly go over my coloring process, but I may do something more in depth soon.
C70 with the raw update makes this a beast of a cam. Its too flexible to deal with everything I love it
I actually just picked up a C70. And you were a big reason I did! And honestly, as soon as I picked it up and turned it on, I can't explain it, but it just "felt right". I used to always think about cameras, but now I just think about shooting, which is nice. That said, in regard to future content suggestions, I'm super curious about anamorphic options on the C70, like the Vazen (RF Version), the Great Joy, Sirui, Laowa Nanomorph, etc. Would love to see what any of those options would look like in your style.
I see you YC I just got the C70 a few months ago and I love it. Running it with the R6 and I'm looking forward to seeing what I can do
I've been rocking the C70 for about a year as well. Love it. I agree with every single one of your takeaways. Honestly, I have used the RAW feature exactly ZERO times since the update. I love that it's there and that feature has won me a few clients, but I ended up not using RAW for those projects. HAHA! Don't need it.
Beautiful footage/color, Chrystopher.
Really enjoyed your video, Chris.
The C70 seems to have a lot going for it. I like that you covered pros and cons. Everything has its downsides.
Exposure:
I'm currently sporting the C200. Typically shoot in a studio setting. However, I recently took it on the road, to a trade show...shot some interviews, etc.
I had some difficulty setting proper exposure, using the WFM (Waveform Monitor). The trade show was well-lit, which was great. But, some of the talking head footage had ceiling/wall lights in the background, which showed up on the WFM. In these instances, the WFM was very busy (subject's exposure vs background exposure, etc). At times, it was hard to make sense of. And of course, I accidentally left my gray card back in the hotel room.
Guess, what I'm trying to say is, I love the C200, but I wish the C200 had built-in False Color. Not sure if the C70 is equipped with it.
A Better Viewing Experience:
I would love to have a camera that has False Color, and a way overlay LUTs on the monitor. To be able to see what the final image will look like, while filming, would be an awesome upgrade.
As always, great video.
This review was right on time. While I absolutely love my C70, I’ve been wondering lately whether I made a mistake in getting it. But you pretty much named all the same things I love about the camera (especially the softness of the images and the built-in NDs) and it made me realize that copping this was the right move. I still need to get something like the R5C because I need an even smaller footprint in some situations but the C70 is perfect. Like another commenter said, this joint is the GOAT camera!
I would like for you to review the Ursa Mini Pro 12k. Try to film 2 different projects with it (either a commercial, short film scene & or music video). I'm pretty sure you will fall in love with it.
I've been a Canon R6 user since 2020. Just picked up the C70 last month and I am blown away at how good the footage looks, even the lower quality 1080 codecs are incredible!
If you do make a video about the z9, super curious about the internal raw video and the workflow. Love the content man!
Lovely review. Thank you. Very helpful and enjoyable!
I love this review for many reasons.
1- It shows a busy filmmaker creating lots of great pieces and talking out of the vast experience with the camera.
2- You owned your opinion and show maturity by saying that this camera is giving you what you need in this season of your career.
3- Thanks for not complaining about all the things that the camera doesn’t so for you. I am am tired of mediocre RUclipsrs complaining because the camera doesn’t fix their lack of knowledge or bad filmmaking.
This is a great camera, I own and Arri Alexa mini and a two canon C70s. They shoot perfect B cams for my Arri and to be perfectly honest I find myself traveling with this camera really often while living my mini behind.
Great work man!
Thanks for the video man : D one thing about the canon raw I found was its cumbersome to use in premiere, but in Davinci it performs just as well as the X-AVC. Also, it opens up the ISO and other drop downs which really make shooting RAW LT worth it. The raw is especially handy in low light. Cheers
I would so love for you to try a Canon R3. That's one I haven't seen you use. I know it's meant for a different kind of niche, but seeing it from your side would be dope
I Love this camera!🎥
Bravo! Love this review. I’m a not a canon shooter but the C70 is my dream cinema camera.
Starting in media as a photographer that shoot 💯 RAW, canon had my full and undivided attention out the gate. The things I can do to the dynamic range of a raw photo is insane. As becoming a filmmaker, my 8bit canon bodies held me down (took care of me very well) for years. But as I perfected my craft, it was like shooting with jpgs. Then came black magic 6k. Once I got my hands on it as a gift, coupled with DaVinci Resolve… it totally hit different. First time in my professional history that I was able to walk away from canon bodies. Had I received a C70 or something cinema from canon that produce raw, I would’ve stayed in the eco system. But now I solely lean on my canon glass collection. I lost my auto focus but LiDAR tech has fixed that for me. Even having gyro stabilization now is making it harder for me to look back at canon bodies. Rigging the 6k is much more of a hassle honestly, but I love playing with these toys so I practice hard on speed building and versatility so when a situation arise, I can quickly adapt. I still would try a c70 though.
Any tips on gyro settings? For me it just doesn't work at all!
Yeah raw is anyways needed since you need to pull a lot of dark areas like the faces.
@@lifewithrich-yt my apologies I just realized you asked me. Did you figure it out yet?
@@lifewithrich-yt for starters gyro won’t work unless you update the firmware in your camera then calibrate it. If you don’t calibrate it won’t work. Also, upgrade the software to the latest version.
Note, any older footage shot prior to these updates and tweaks won’t work.
@@lifewithrich-yt also, if you have image stabilization on your lens, it won’t work.
listen... :D i got the c70 + speedbooster and EF L glass.. to go with that i got the R5C + batterygrip + the ND filter adaptor.. and angelbird 1 TB cf express card, and it is great!!! love it.. the two combined A + B cam is and you can use the R5C for photos when not used for video.. brilliant combination. And the R5C is crazy in low light when set to native iso 3200.. amazing.
Both have timecode for my tentacle syncs together with the tentacle track E.. ultimate setup, really. (for longer shoots you would need a V-mound and a usb camble for the R5C though, it is power hungry.
I’ve put the c70 in some great low light situations and found the footage extremely usable. I’ve shot on the FX6 an FX3 and they don’t compare to the C70. Internal ND is amazing and with the Viltrox Speedbooster it’s equivalent to full frame. I primarily use the 24-105mkii and Canon 50mm 1.2 for all my run and gun!
13:04 I use to be one who though that about Super 35, but once I got the C70, I said "TF was I thinking, this is amazing"
I agree with most of what you said here, I also have the C70 since it came out last year and it's an incredible camera. The one point I would counter is that, the low light on this camera is much better than most other Canon cameras, even full frame!! Yes, it true that Sony cameras are much better in low light situations, with less noise due to the technology on their sensors, however, the noise from low-light image from the C70 is actually very pleasing, it's hard to explain, you have to see it to understand what I mean. It looks more like film noise than digital noise, and it can easily be cleaned up with noise reduction in post, which would make it rival the Sony's (as long as you have a powerful computer to process it). But yes, the low light on this camera is actually very nice and depending on the style you're going after, I'd say it actually gives night-time clips a characteristic that no other camera can reproduce. I'm not saying this because I have it, although it is my favorite camera for video, but for people to see it and know that this is actually a contender to the FX6 and FX3 in low light. To illustrate, take a look at a short film I did last year, with only ambient light at night.... ruclips.net/video/hgQ0x2HJNkM/видео.html
Dope review , I had the c70 but I moved to the Sony , I love the fact that it did have 10 stops of Nd and added raw into it
Good review and breakdown of the specs brother
Those low light shots looks amazing!
I am a Sony user and always liked the C200 (that was the monster kit that everybody wanted) and I know the C70 is now a great tool for all kind of jobs. Good that you are happy with Canon, in the end the results and the workflow is what counts. Keep 'em coming man, congrats.
I appreciate it!
I need a good hybrid now and already own the C70. I was actually considering selling it and switching to the Sony ecosystem but I just cannot get over how good the roll off is on the C70 and I still think Canon's color science is superior. The Alexa LUT works so good on RAW or CLOG 2 as well, now that the C70 shoots RAW ST and LT.
I used the Sony and I must admit, it's amazing how they pull no punches unliked Canon, but I can't help but feel like there is a more "cinematic" look with Canon. Someone change my mind considering I am infuriated at how much Canon holds back with their hybrids unlike Sony.
God damn man... Your cinematography is fantastic! You make this camera shine
I chose the Komodo over the c70 in 2021 due to it not having raw. Realized recently that I shoot more things on my own and purchased a canon c70 now that raw is an option. I love it. Don't get me wrong I love my Komodo too but my work horse is the canon C70.
Same. But I bought the C70 first.
Great review. I agree with everything you said for likes and dislikes. Always love seeing your stuff YC!
Yeah the C70 is like the perfect middle ground with a lot to offer. Just recently got my hands on a C200 as I got a good deal and it was in my budget. I love the RAW and I don’t think the files are huge compared to the R5 and it edits/plays back really well. Even the 8bit is really solid! That and my R5 will more than get me through for now. Canon for life 🤞🏽😂
Amazing content as usual 👏👏 thank you
Great detailed video…
What do you think of the R5c?
Thx!!
Nice footage you got there! 🔥
Looks like I’m going for RED Komodo. Been with Canon for 10 years. Moving out of doc work into narrative. I think Komodo will be good for me. Maybe have a look since it looks like you do a lot of music videos and narrative storytelling? All the best brother!
You dont go to an f/2 using the speed booster. It just isnt now like an f/4 when using the s35 size. It's now closer to being an f/2.8 again.
I'd like to see you review a Red Komodo, V Raptor, or Gemini 5k. R5c vs C70 would be cool content to see too.
I would definitely love to see you test out the R5c and how it compares to the C70
This
‼️‼️‼️
Love my c70!
Excellent review!
I would like to see a review on the FX3!
When the Zcam F6 pro comes out please review that camera. I really love to hear your opinion on it
Canon was a leader in the prosumer space for a while, although always at the cost of size and weight. But Sony now has a very comfortable lead on canon in that arena.
I love canon but I try the Fuji gfx 100s. And I’m in love with the video quality.
I’ve came across a clip that showed for low light to use clog 3 instead of clog 2 …. Clog 2 gives you the best dynamic range but clog3 gamma curve helps in lower light situations
Thanks a lot sir !
It would be great to see you check out the Red Komodo. Compare the perks of global shutter to rolling shutter and other features
The Red Komodo looks dope!
@@YCImaging it legit does!
Good observations - I've been a Canon shooter a long time but honestly my loyalty has been stretched thin at some times. That said I've always liked the color science and "look" of the Canon and I find the files really painless to grade. I just upgraded to a C70 after shooting a C100 M2 for years so I'm used to the super 35 format. I agree-once you have a cine camera with NDs and built in audio you can't go back. Very manageable file size and excellent battery life. I got this camera with full knowledge of it's strength and weaknesses and so far no regrets. I knew the low light wouldn't be that great and the autofocus was really improved with the firmware update, but again I knew it's limitations and my expectations were not excessive. Still a lot to like about this reliable workhorse. I miss the EVF and I'm working on a DIY solution -
Love our C70! The battery on is insane
Much love bro
From Sierra Leone
West Africa
I am the same way, I currently have the canon r3 r5c r6 gave my son my r5 so I don’t see myself going anywhere.
Plus I have friends with Sonys and let’s just say the grass is definitely not greener on the other side, lol.
Anyways excellent video as always.
Talking me off a Sony ledge over here. You're right. Love my C70...
I'd like you to review the FX3/FX6, if you can find one FX6!
If we could see you experiment with the Sony FX6 that'd be great. See what you can get with that
I'd like to see some tips and thoughts on the R5C as a combo photo/video camera. I kind of think RAW files are getting easier and easier to work with but basic knowledge of how to properly use RAW in workflow is not commonly known or understood. Guys at Ripple training seem to be on top of passing along workflow knowledge. Sorry to run on an on. Thanks for the content,
Nice video bro! Try out the X-H2S!!!!
Hey
Great video! Which Dtap battery are you using?
Thank you!
While I wanted a c70, it was more than I wanted to spend. I went with the gh6, which in some ways feels like a Jr. version of the c70. Both very video centric with great capability.
The GH6 has a ton of features for the price, it's great!
Hey man... I really hope you see this
Got a question a lil unrelated: I'm about to buy my first camera... I'm a hybrid shooter and I'd decided to go in for the R6. But with the news of Canon banning the production of 3rd party lenses, I'm beginning to tilt towards the A7IV as it has much cheaper and broader lens options. You think that's the right move?
C70 is a dream come true for solo filmmakers like myself. Ther will always be a but in all cameras.
I would love to see you check out a Red camera to see if you can push it to its limits. Great content as always!
One area the C70 excels is in dynamic range. It even beats the RED Komodo and any other camera in this price range.
C300 review would be great!
would be sick to see some r5c or r3 reviews!
Z Cam E2 S6 might be interesting to check out.
Your work is impressive, quick question, do you like using the camera on a gimbal? I have a similar issue with the shape of the camera,, I wish it had the rotating handle like my other cinema cameras
Good job brother 👏 👍. I would like you to review the Sony Fx9 😀 👍
I'll love to see you use the Lumix S5
im sold this will be my next camera
Please try the panasonic eva-1, been thinking about getting it as my cinema camera, I would like to see how it compares to the c70 as far dynamic range and overall usability
So it’s so crazy that you dropped this lol I’ve only ever used cannon it was my first like real camera and then my first cinema camera was and still is a black magic but I started looking into this one and then you dropped the video so it must be destiny lol
Great review.
Can you do a cinema review of the R5?
your work is so good bruh
What’s up Chris? I bought the c70 before it was released a couple of years ago. I was wondering why back then you weren’t on it but everyone likes what they like. My issue is using my RS2 at times. The positioning with the plate seems a off to me.
I just had the c200 so I wasn't really looking into it, I love it now tho! I use the Rs3 Pro, it's nice man.
You also do a review on Canon R7 too
Man I think you should try the a7siii/fx3 in a low light situation.
What profile do you film the C70 in? Do you use any LUTs?
please, could you give me some advice? what do you think about this camera compared to canon R5C? which one is better?
c70 or fx6 ,which is better in low light please??
Gotta see you and the canon R5C
I'm thinking of making a huge jump from my Lumix GH6 to C70. Never used Cannon before. Is it necessary to pop a Cine lens on the C70 or can I get away with an f-stop lens and have decent cinematic quality?
Maybe try out some Nikon or Sony cameras and tell us what you think. Personally I love Canon and wanna continue with Canon, but you’re right, Nikon is doing a lot better. I guess just what’s your take on the brand side of things
Do you have any videos comparing the C70 and the R5C
Would like to see you review the Fuji XH2 or XH2S
Yeah bro I'm shooting with the R5c I choose that over the C70 cause I shoot 60/40 Photo & Video as of lately and the C70 just Video (but it's on my bucket list in 2023) You can't go wrong with Canon color science. When I worked in Television News our station used Song BetaCam, Yeah that long ago, so I used Sony on my personal projects outside of work also, but sense the 2000 it's been Canon
I would like to see a review on the X-H2S
Well. If you want to get out of your comfort zone without leaving Canon: The R5C. Have it since the start of the year and you already having the C70, you'd be real comfortable with that. Just make sure to power it from a battery bank or V-mount :)
Would love to see your opinion on the X-H2S!
Would you say the autofucus is better on the c70 or the C200?
How you feel about the C70 is how I feel about my Fujifilm X-H2S. You should try it out.
What lens are you using for the bedroom bathroom scene starting 2:05?
I would like you to try out the sony A74
Can you review the R5C and compare it to the C70?
I love my C70. The only camera I love more is the Komodo. Not because it's "Better" the C70 is far more functional. The komodo is just fun. And the form factor I prefer for the traveling I have to do.
What’s your take on the C300 mkii?
not sure if you did this already and i missed it, but would love to see what your opinion on the FX6 compared to this would be.
Same!
