With the new autofocus update it's a game changer for me! Also check out the top plate from tilta to mount your mic and handle. It's literally just a plate that sits on top of the camera on a hot shoe. Very convenient!

Good review - I just upgraded to the C70 after shooting with the C100 M2 for 5 years. I really miss the EVF, but now there are some decent add on EVFs and it seems more and more common that Cine cameras don't come with a EVF standard anymore. Needless to say coming from a 420 8bit- low MBPS codec the C70 is stunning. I wish it had a better build quality, but I knew all the cons before I got it and I have no regrets. I have a ton of EF glass that is working nicely with the new body and it's like having new lens with the image quality I have now. I'm a documentary filmmaker too and I know this camera will serve my needs fine.

I watched this video almost only because I knew it was gonna have some great storytelling. I was not disappointed. =) I do some (unpaid) video work for my church, so something like the C70 is outside my league. But I enjoyed this review (film???) a lot, and your comments on gear towards the end really rang true. I was a musician long before I ever started using cameras, so I know what it’s like to encounter a piece of gear that you really connect with. While for professional work I need to make reasonable gear choices, I also want to choose pieces of gear that I enjoy. Btw, love the Field Notes!!! =)

@MrQstorm3476 5 ай бұрын

In regards to the monitor becoming loose...assuming the monitor swivels 360 degrees, if you flipped it out, rotated it 360, then swing it back into the monitor cavity so you're looking at it on the body (instead of on the side), would that prevent the monitor from loosening?

@avdcam Жыл бұрын

Up the brightness or the luminance? I never touch the brightness, massively different in my experience. Do you run +2 luminance in exteriors, I find it pretty bright, but the best, but more than adequate. Agreed, handle sucks and the monitor mount is too weak. The newer deliveries seem to have a better hinge tho they never announced a change.

@EricFloberg Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I just got a new one, and the screen already feels so much better. You're right. I think it's Luminance, not brightness.

@avdcam Жыл бұрын

@@EricFloberg ahh good, yah +2 lum helps a ton, I found someone who had measured it close to maybe a 500-700 nit brightness over the 100-200 base. well worth just running at full brightness

@avdcam Жыл бұрын

@@EricFloberg Yo, did you ever confirm the difference between the luminance +2 setting vs using brightness. Been seeing a lot more creators still get this wrong recently and wanted to check in :). I run at +2 lum outside, brightness always at base.

@avdcam Жыл бұрын

@@EricFloberg Just checking in again that your found the luminace setting to increase the monitor's backlight, since brightness does not do that. Still seeing a lot of shooters miss this one.

Great feedback but you were in manual focus in the shots of you talking in the mirror right ? Otherwise the AF on the eyes doesn't work at all. Just asking myself... Love this cam, I've currently working on Xh2s (as i need it as my second photo camera) and B6Kpro (but i will probably replace it by the C70 or next model in few years)

It's a shame using full frame glass on S35 removes all of the attractive character of a lens. Is there even any S35 RF glass that exists? Kinda ruined. Such amazing dynamic range wasted on a literal flat image. This is why the R5C would be the enthusiasts choice. All that annoying rigging is worth it for an image twice as big.

@corwingarber Жыл бұрын

if canon release s35 RF glass that would be lit
