My good friend Shawn who is the inventor and owner of the Xtender Friction Mount line asked me for some help in shooting a demo for his products. I of course volunteered to help out but only if we can use the new Sony a6300. 😀 Shawn came over and brought his fiction mounts and […]
Sony a6300: Does it Overheat Shooting 4K 24p? Is the Rolling Shutter Bad? I Have Those Answers.
The Sony a6300 has so many nice upgrades from my favorite sidekick. Goes everywhere with me a6000. Incredibly fast auto focus and the Metabones adapter works very well with my Sigma 18-35. Still need to try other Canon lenses. 4K internal recorded footage looks really good. But……. One BIG issues came up and another I can […]

Look what just showed up this morning. Sony a6300. Can’t wait to get started. I’m an a6000 owner and I love that camera. For me I want to see if it’s worth updating to. As a stills camera I think it is but video is what I need to rest. #cameratesting #sony #bts #videoreview #a6300 […]

Sony ar7 ii gets Phase-Detection AF in V 3.10 Update
Sony adds Phase-Detection AF support to the a7r II plus support for Phase-Detection AF in video mode with the new 85mm G Master lens. This is great since Phase-Detection AF is much better than contrast detection AF. Big advantage to the new G Master lenses since they all use Phase-Detection AF. The update also includes the prevues updates […]
Inexpensive Softbox Solution for the Aputure Lightstorm LS 1S PLUS DEC LANC Cable Triggers Record!

Balboa Park at Sunset. Shooting the Sony FS5 with New V1.11 Firmware
This Sony FS5 review is the most live one I’ve done. Just hours before I was going to send back my demo camera to Sony the V1.11 firmware update was released. Sony was gracious enough to let me hold on to the FS5 and update the firmware to test it out for a few more […]
Sony FS5 Face Detection Plus the Sony UWP-D16 Wireless in Action!
Here is another little test but this one is on the air! I know auto focus isn’t very good in general with most video cameras. The exception is the Canon’s Dual Pixel AF but Sony has made some advances and the Sony FS5 that I have on loan has Face Detection track auto focus. I […]
FS5 Clear Image Zoom Test. I Love this Feature! Plus Slog3
I’m almost done shooting test shots with the FS5 for my review. I have two promos this week that I’m going to shoot with the FS5. Both are talent on camera so will have some skin tone to play with. Yippie! Clear Image Zoom is one of the coolest features on alpha cameras like the […]
