Phillip, here in Brazil i was able to import an Sony PMW-F3. To resolves the problems of coded,or make a better video, more than 35Mbits we add a external recorder, the Gemini from Covergent design.(444 around 120Mbits is more than sufficient for us). The complete pack, (camera, lens, 3 batteries, follow focus,Match Box & Viewfinder from Zcutto, Nikkon lens adapter, etc),costs R$52,669.00 BRL (Brazilian Real) = 30,211,00 USD (US Dollar) in the day I bougth .
I run a small studio, production firm.
Is really very expensive, but I really needed this camera to work. So I made a choice: I sold my car, I gathered together the money i had saved and bought the camera. I’m walking on foot, or by taxi, but the camera is already producing. 1000 dolars a daily schedule when I have window in our agenda to rent, and in the rest of the time, it works for me and my little team.
The choices we make are they going to make or not, the conditions for getting what we want or need.
We Never shoot with 5D. 5D is to take pictures. Boy blowing birthday candle, grandma knitting … Our children playing. Film, video clips, documentaries, TV, etc., is to be done with video cameras. So I made my choice. I gave up something, to have another. -
PHILIP, Bear in mind that this DOES NOT compete with panasonic AF100. PMW F3 is one or two steps ahead. AF100 competes with DSLR, in a atempt to make cimematograhers undestands tha DSLR is a equipment to make STILLs images. This filming capabilities is for the operator make a urgent film in a street for example, or a father who is shooting the labor of her wife in hospital , and resolves to filming the birth process. Like craig Seeman said , is a baby F35, for shooting the things that the people is using DSLR and beyond.For the last instance is a SONY equipment. Period !

Dear Anna Haas. Like you said , i agree with you. I am a Sound editor with some movies that have the sound completely editted in adudition. Audition allows me to do everyhing i need, but sound-shit-boot is the worst piece of garbage that i had noticed in my entire 46 years life.I prefer to know that i have a dangerous desease to be obligated to use sound booth. But if you run the updates of Premiere, from 4.0.1 if i´m not wrong, premiere adds the feature “Edit in Audition” when you have to manage audio clips directly in your timeline. So after that you can descontaminate your hard drive from sound-gabage-booth. OK ? Is the best solution until today. Best Regards, Leon.
