Who cares about the D750, Nikon just made an FX 20mm 1.8 lens

Also I don't use my Nikon for video anymore, but my Blackmagic Cinema Cameras all have m43 to Nikon Speedboosters and a 20mm 1.8 would round out my current set of primes; got 24, 35, 50, and 85 already.

I get why some people would want wide angle crop zooms, but is something wrong with the Tokina 11-16 or the Sigma 8-16?

A modern, stabilized 70-200 is gonna blow the doors off the older 80-200, hell a newer f4 one is probably gonna be much sharper than an older 2.8.

The AF-D 35-70 is pretty good and like $400ish?

Or you can get the 28-85 AF-D with macro! I think I got one on KEH for $30 and it's good for a walkaround lens.

Same with the D600/610. I don't know why they're suddenly losing their minds when the D800 had this ability like 2 years ago.

Canon sells $20,000 APS-C cinema cameras, I doubt those are going away.

What is it about the colors on the A7s do you not like? Do you shoot in slog or just one of the normal profiles? I have the same experience with my Blackmagic cameras, but working in raw and grading in Resolve allows me to get great color. I'm thinking of adding an A7s to my video kit since it's got mad DR and I can use it as a backup photo body.

I thought news departments were firing their photographers and handing out high MP cell phone cameras to reporters anyways

I sent mine for service a couple months ago and it took 5 days total, including ship time and time to repair physical damage caused by a drop and to clean the sensor.

Good plan? The D800 is a better camera in every which way except for size and weight, I guess.

The curve and exposure are the first thing I hit

I don't get why people are suddenly talking about this. The D800 and D600 have been available for like 2 years already.

The mid-level full frame would be the D600/610.

Weird, I had mine done earlier this year and have taken something like 20k photos since - no excessive amount of dust. How long did you have yours before you sent it in? I had mine for 2 years before bothering to do a cleaning.
|
# ¿ Nov 30, 2014 02:09 |

If I recall, doing a cleaning before the first 10k shutter actuations or so could result in more dust buildup due to reasons that I can't remember right now, though you'd expect that this shouldn't be a problem after the shutter assembly has been replaced.

Depends on your use case and style of video, it's hard recommend something without knowing your style and how you plan to put videos together.

Lots of people use 4/3 for pro video.

Kenshin posted:Well, I assume I wouldn't have a warranty. Or you could get a used D800 now and have a great crop camera that can also be a high MP full frame.

I was shooting Canon crop before the D800 came and the leap in tech over the mk3 was so dramatic I knew I had to switch. I just wish there was a decent 24-105

He probably means the AF gets stuck.

On a modern Nikon (Sony) sensor, I don't think it even applies gain until you hit ISO1600. So really you can push it around in any direction at any point before then and you'd be fine as long as you were shooting in raw.
|
# ¿ Apr 3, 2015 23:50 |

The sensors in the newer full frames don't apply any gain until 1600 or so, so going up in that case is really just moving your exposure up and losing 2/3 stops of headroom in the highlights.

The Locator posted:I appreciate that good lenses are expensive, but for my purposes (I am not a professional by any stretch of the imagination) it's just far beyond the price I could consider paying. I do understand it's a professional lens and may be priced appropriately, but drat, for a hobby type user like myself, it's still expensive as hell! This bears repeating but photography is a terrible hobby that is a giant pit of burning money

VelociBacon posted:If you're doing this professionally in an event setting I would say the d750 is your only option because it's the only fx Nikon right now outside of the pro bodies that can absolutely save shots that have no business being saved. If you were doing only studio work I'd say get the d810. I don't think it makes sense to buy the older fx bodies if this is something you're doing professionally. The D600 is very cheap and basically performs the same

toggle posted:Except for the dodgy Nikon fixes it for free and it never becomes a problem again - I'm like 30k clicks post repair and it's good. Considering how cheap and good a D600 is, it's hard to pass it up for a D750 that costs a lot more.

nielsm posted:Is the D600 completely forgotten? I don't think it's missing any features the D700 has, but it does add higher resolution and video recording. If you get the sensor cleaned, it is a great camera that costs very little.
