Looking for advice on a broadcast camcorder.
I have a reasonable budget to choose cameras for my college's new studio. The studio will be used for talking-head interviews, and smalltime broadcast style news done by students. This will include green screen work.
what's a good broadcast camera i can get around $5,000? I'm interested in the Sony pxw-x180, but after using the HXR-NX5 for the last couple of years, 3X 1/3" sensors just don't seem good enough. Maybe they have improved since then though?
The "cinema" cameras...

For around 5k? You could go all out and get the Panasonic dvx200, has a 4/3 sensor, wile most others still use iPhone or point-and-shit sized sensors
>>2741205
Just looked it up, not a bad camera. The 3G-SDI and 4K option are great pluses in my book.
Only negative thing I heard is that people are having issues with color grading on it.
So I just bought an a7s to shoot videos, I always used my cheap t2i and good prime lenses, never felt the need of a better camera for videos until the last year, had the money and decided to do the next step. I'm a noob with this new stuff so pls don't kill me.
I was fucking around with picture profiles to see how they looked and pp4 seems to behave in a different way than the others. Even with the smallest amount of overexposure, colors become really weird. They kinda shift to a brighter/washed out version, some just become white but others seem to stay there...

Ok I just checked the actual files on my computer monitor and they don't look "weird", it seems like the monitor/viewfinder of the camera made them look a lot more saturated/vivid.
It happens when I select "ITU709". I don't know what the fuck i'm doing, yeah
>>2762040
Learn to do your color grading in post first.
Plus simply do not use the profiles that don't work for you, if you don't need to.
> is my a7s having some problems
How would we know, we can't even see samples. But rather than making us do the work, how about you compare your stuff yourself to gazillions of pieces of published materials from other A7S & find out.
>>2762046
The problem is this happens only on camera. It's ok on my computer monitor.
I may have been a bit too modest in my post, I know how to use raw files and I always do my color grading, the color just seem really fucked up only on my a7s.
Long exposure thread?

no. You're still learning
its natural to follow tutorials and even imitate other photographers when you're starting. don't worry about it senpai.
This tutorial is worthless

So, is it a good first camera for beginners?
Hey, /p/. I'm very new to photography, and if I ask anybody to critique what I've gotten so far, they just say "Yeah, that looks real good" because either they just want to be nice or they really don't know, so I have no idea if I'm total shit or actually decent.
I'm gonna post a few of my more favorite shots so far, and any criticism or feedback would be much appreciated. Be as brutal as you want, I'm really trying to learn here.
If anybody else new wants to see if their work is decent, I guess this would be a good place.

Hey there.
I've started trying film fotography a few weeks ago, and this is one from my first color roll. It was a Kodak Gold 200, shot with a Nikon F60. Can someone explain to me what those stripes are? I'm not sure if the problem was in the shooting or if it was the lab.
Anyway, i'm not a pro, i just take photos as a hobby, so don't judge too harshly please

It could be the lab using a dirty machine to process your photos. Tell them to clean their equipment and see if they'll give you a refund/newfilm/process etc.

you BR senpai? I suggest quitting film unless you're loaded
it's a niche market in a severely under-demanding market
that means no fair price on new products i.e. film and paraphernalia, due to no production and little to no importation
also no maintenance on equipment since they're getting discontinued and not being replaced due to no demand whatsoever,...

Really like that but I feel like some of the lines are not quite straight and it sorta fucks with me but then I realize I like that more than if they were all actually straight
>mfw all my most recent are literally snapshits I took on the way to the drug store to test a camera I bought at a thrift store and I just got the scans back
I'm the worst
Anyone reckon it would be worth using the built-in digital camera unit on some of the petrographic microscopes I use in the lab to get nicer pictures of rock thin sections? Not entirely sure how good the camera actually is, but it's good enough to project an image on a board and still look decent. Would anyone find that interesting enough to warrant me bothering to post it? Maybe I'm just being overly enthusiastic, but what you can see with microscopy is fascinating to me
Pic related is snapshit taken today looking down the eyepiece with the crosshair to give an idea of what you usually see of a rock thin section (this section specifically is shap granite under crossed polars with biotite intergrown into chlorite, titanite and significantly altered pagioclase visible)

>and sleek rangefinder-style looks (reminiscent of Fujifilm’s X100 series cameras)
it looks exactly like the old Pen FT, NOT like le x100 memecamera. im gonna gut that faggot with a dessert spoon, fucking hell.
eh.
I'm a beginner photographer and I've been going out and taking pictures of things to get a sense for the controls of my camera. I've also been getting a grasp on the exposure triangle and messing around to see what happens when I set the camera in different ways.
The issue is that I've just gone out and taken pictures of... whatever. Sometimes I'm just out in my backyard at different times of day to see how light affects my exposure. So I'm getting the technical aspect down, but it's everything else that I'm lacking.
I know that it's a good idea to go somewhere with purpose and to have an idea of what you want to photograph ahead of time. This is a dumb question but, what's a good 'assignment' for a beginner photographer? What should I be concentrating on as my subjects? I don't think I have a complete grasp on everything to the point where I'd feel comfortable shooting street photography, but I think I need something more concrete than "just go out and take pictures".
What are some of the things you started off taking pictures of?
I think at this point you really should just be taking pictures of anything. Play around with composition. Pick a subject and see how many different ways you can capture it.
Pretend you're shooting for a tour book for your town or some shit.
>>2761592
I think your ready to develop a watermark, put an ad on Craigslist and take pictures of halfnaked girls so they can post the pictures on Facebook and pretend they are models.
This seems like to be the way things work nowadays.
i have no idea where to find any good photography
suggest some sites to cure this
Photography sites or blogs selling gear?
jealous poorfags?
>>2755806
You realize for all the money you spent on filters, which you could re-create in PS or LR yourself, that you could've bought a new lens instead?
its fucking nothing
>>2755806
no I shoot actual film, which is a tenth of the cost you've spent on some digital effects that I could of made myself
Does anyone else shoot Olympus?
I have an e-510 and for some reason the picture always comes out with more room on the right and bottom side than the viewfinder shows. It's not too big of a deal because it gives me a little extra space that I can crop out of if necessary, but it's just a bit strange.
Optical viewfinders sometimes don't cover the entire frame that the sensor sees. That camera has a 95% coverage viewfinder, so about 5% of your photo isn't visible in the finder. I guess it's also not perfectly centered which is why you get extra on just the right and bottom instead of a little extra all the way around.
Best way you can ensure complete frame coverage with the 510 is to use the live view, although AF will be shit (had a 410, still have a 520).
I was recently given some FT lenses with no body. What is a FT body that is still relevant today?
Hey /p/
I don't often post here but here goes,
I make short films and need to make one over the weekend, i have all the equiptment but theres one problem. i need a steadicam/glidecam/camera stabilizer. anyone live in Leeds, UK that would be willing to help out? i know its alot to ask but ill only need it for a few hours, plus it would be cool to meet some of you guys!
>>2760582
I don't know if you're a fucking psycho or not.
I have a Glidecam HD4000 and I fucking hate it.
>>2760582
I'm on the other side of the planet so obviously can't help, But you might want to offer up some info about the shot.
What camera do you hope to put on it?
What kind of shot? Is there running involved. Is it just following people while they walk. is it an action sequence, etc.
>>2760604
running, walking, i have a sony a7 mk ii
Looks like shit

Looks better than the D5, those 3 front function buttons piss me off everytime I look at the piece of shit.
If you need more than 2 do it like Canon has done it.
