What didn’t you like about the Zacuto?? According to what I’ve read online the things have about every option imagineable and you can even drop them from 12 feet and they won’t break.

I have the Fotodiox EOS to MFT adapter- works like a charm. The Birger ain’t out yet and will cost a fortune- though it will give you control of aperture supposedly.
NOAH, how are you adjusting your aperture using the Fotodiox adapter??

What do you think about the Voigtlander adapter? What’s the mount called for the older manuel mount and also the newer mount used for Nikon?

I’m open to using Nikon lens. Is the F-mount the older manuel mount? What’s the current mount for nikon called?

Thanks for the replies and thanks especially Michael for all the links! I’m buying the program for sure now. I’m sure I’ll have many more questions down the road! Thanks.

Can’t rent without getting some lens suggestions first Steve.

So in conclusion you’re saying if I had two HD cameras, one with a small sensor (with a DOF adapter) and one with a large sensor, there would be no difference in picture quality (assuming everything else is the same, codec, processor, etc)? So really the main advantage of using a AF100 over a Sony EX3 is that no DOF adapter is needed…and the larger sensor will perform better in low light. As far as the sensor issue goes am I correct in my thinking? Are there any other pros/cons to the big/little sensor topic?
One other thought: How does the viewfinder on the AF100 compare to the Sony EX3’s viewfinder? The EX3 is the only camera I’ve ever used and I absolutely loved the viewfinder. The one on the Panny is positioned different and looks inconvenient.

I understand DOF and all that. The comparison I’m trying to make is between the af100 and the Sony w/ a DOF adapter. So what you’re saying is that there really isn’t an advantage to the 100’s larger sensor other than I woundn’t have to buy a DOF adapter? This is where I’m confused.
-
Speaking strictly about their sensors for a moment…is there really any benefit to using the AF100’s much much larger sensor when the footage is only going to DVD as an end product?

One more thought: What about the Panasonic GH-2? I’ve been reading online reviews that this camera will record a clean picture out to an external recorder. I couldn’t find any “confirmed” reports about this, only that it’s “suppose to” be able to do that. Does anyone know? If this is true I’ll be buying one over the Canons for sure!
