Lights, Camera, Action
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this camera on film sets. It’s so good, friends in the industry ask to borrow it for their indie films. It’s great for video and stills. And, the learning curve is manageable. I am really glad I own this one. My only upgrade at this point, would be a Red.

Best value in cinema cameras
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looked. Researched. Looked. Researched… came to the conclusion this camera was worth a shot. Worked with various Sony Alpha series cameras so the workflow was minimal learning curve. I’ve worked in video production for over a decade, but wanted something for freelance production and this was the way to go to get started. Happy as I can be with the image quality.

Nice step up from filming on an A7
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Still learning how to nail down SLOG3 filming. This camera is super solid and looks great. I had to get it with the mic handle since without is not in stock.
I would recommend this to a friend Good but cant use out of the box
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera seems pretty good, but can assess without a lens. A basic lens should be provided with the unit so it is functional out of the box with additional required purchased parts.
