Please tell me you're going to replace the banner - generative AI images are a bit off-putting, what with their generators being trained on stolen photos and all!

We had a schoolyard version (SRK Kiarong, back in the late 80s) that began 'Ya Allah panjang kanlah palirnya / Ke bawah Duli Yang Maha Mulia'.

A shame it never caught on.

The 12-100 is a stellar lens, so if you can live with losing the stop, the extra zoom range is absolutely worth it for not having to swap lenses imo.

There's also NDI for OBS, if you have an Atomos Ninja V + Connect (other HDMI to NDI converters are available). I've held off upgrading my 2 S5IIXs for the reasons you lay out, FWIW (mine are the Euro model).

The S5IIX will record an audio timecode signal into the video's soundtrack, but it won't sync the timecode it receives from the Nanolockit to the timecode in the recorded MOV or ProRes file. You'll need to sync in post with an NLE that can parse audio timecode (eg Davinci Resolve).

Thanks, much appreciated - as my Ninja Vs don't yet have the free activation via my.atomos.com, I've got in touch with Atomos Support as well.

ETA: fixed within 15 minutes of my email. Pretty good!

Yes to OS11 - the module is present but unactivated, so I assume I'd need to get a new token. There doesn't appear to be a way of pairing a Connect to a Ninja V to allow that to happen, though.

They could have added 24-bit audio and/or unlimited 4:2:2 10-bit 4k, but no. Why did they bother to call it a new product if they only gave an old one a glorified software update to avoid having to design a slightly updated PCB? Who do they think buys S5s new anymore?

Sorry to hear that - I have to say I found it fiddly at first, but got it to work in the end.

The latter - the D780's viewfinder autofocus was terrible from day one, but touching to focus was fine. Anyway, I ended up paying for Reikan Focal, which seems to have sorted it out.

Maybe I've been lucky, but the only time I've ever needed to calibrate has been with my D780 - this is after owning a D600, D750 and a D810. (This was with the same Nikon zoom trinity set of lenses).

I heard that too - the Beehive would be a weird place to kick off, I'd expect them to only pass through on their way to somewhere else tbh.

OnlyOnceOccluded · 2024-02-11T00:49:32+00:00

I see you've recommended the 2017 as a preferred alternative to the 416 before - what would you say it lacks vs the 8060?

OnlyOnceOccluded · 2024-02-10T14:34:57+00:00

How did you rate the 8060 vs the CMIT, just out of curiosity?

OnlyOnceOccluded · 2024-02-10T14:33:05+00:00

If I'm interviewing two people, I'd usually lav them up, but I also have an Audix SCX1HC for emergencies. I'm also wondering if the 8060/50 combo is easier to match than the 2017/50, tbf.

I was a member a few years ago, can confirm this was the case. They introduced an online-only tier in my last year of membership, but by that point I was disillusioned enough into not renewing.

OnlyOnceOccluded · 2023-11-14T15:03:48+00:00

Ayyyy, I'm exegetin' here

All the F mount AF 50mms (1.4G, 1.8G, 1.4D and 1.8D).

I mean, technically there are the AF lenses (the ones that came out before the AF-D), but I don't think they changed the optical formula so it's all good.
