@matrodmedia
8 жыл бұрын
I think the Canon lens' stabilization is better because when an IS lens is connected, the camera decides how much of it's internal IBIS to use, and most of the time uses both at the same time. This is why it's a 5-axis stabilization, because the lens has 2-axis, and the sensor has 3. It's something they don't really mention, but whether you're using all 5 axis, or just 3 axis, it's still very handy. Also, get us a video on that Jockey! Coolest thing to happen to gimbals so far!

+matrodfilm The IBIS is disabled when the Canon IS is active. When it's disabled the IBIS activates and can't be changed. Odd how that works, but with the option is there for NON-IS lenses. You are right about it being native on just Sony Lenses.

Personally, I don't find IS in lenses to be anywhere near as effective as IBIS in reducing distraction camera shakes. In fact, I find them to produce much more a rolling or wave motion with occasional hard stops which is pretty distracting. the optimal solution is a sony lens with OSS combined with IBIS. barring that the internal IBIS. And lastly stabilization built into the lens. slog2 and slog3 are not meant to be shot in low light scenarios. They are curves designed to capture maximum exposure data in wide latitude particularly contrasty scenes. This is not what you have at night typically. There is usually considerably more information in the shadow detail which will be better captured using on the cine profiles. And if you use a cine profile I wouldn't use an slog gamma as they are not designed to go together. Sony pretty much advises against this. This was a nice review with a some really good production value. I disagree on some finer points but overall i liked it. cheers.

After further investigation, I'm really starting to dislike skin tones in both the a7sii and the a7rii. However, the Sony pxw fs5 kicks the A series butt especially in image quality. Despite all the hype, real pros don't like the the a7sii or the a7rii because of skin tone quality and overheating. The color space just isn't good on these cameras. If you need a good camera get ready to shell out the cash for the Sony fs5.
