Julian Moser Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Hello everyone, Not much of a question, but I´d still like to hear what people think about this. I just finished a documentary that we shot on the GH5s because we had to be low profile, nimble and often in low light situations. The handling of DSLR/DSLM cameras to me is always a nightmare no matter what you do and yet there is nothing that beats the quality/size package for places where you can´t work with a bigger camera. I guess an ideal camcorder for these kind of projects would be a camera in between the GH5s and an EVA with a M4/3 sensor. I wouldn´t even mind an integrated lens. I never used the DVX200 because it seemed too clunky and from all I´ve heard almost unusable in low light. I just wish there would be a digital run and gun 16mm style camera. Seems like the ingredients are there, but with manufacturers focusing on FF now I feel like this ship has probably sailed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Aapo Lettinen Posted May 5, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted May 5, 2021 there is block style cameras like the Z-Cam E2-M4 and the similar style system from Panasonic. they have M43 sensor and are relatively small and handy. you will need a external monitor though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baltasar Thomas Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Take a look at the JVC GY-LS300CHE, might be exactly what you're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Moser Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 @aapo lettinen they are modular camera systems though. I´m sure they are decent cameras for specific purposes but in my opinion not documentary suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Moser Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 @Baltasar Thomas if the JVC GY-LS300CHE had a m43 or even closer to s16mm sensor then yes, but it´s s35, right? I guess I´m looking for a 2021 Verison of a AG-AF100... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
