Hello Jacques congrats for the great and motivationg content that you upload to your channel, I'm wondering if the Tamron 17-28 F2.8 could compete with Sony FE 4/PZ 16-35mm is pretty similar and has the advantage to have a bit lighter F/2.8 what are your thoughts?

I am for sure waiting the BTS video as I need to shoot Fitness video next week and I need to know how you used the Nanlite Pavo tube 30x. Thanks for the amazing content.

Hey Jacques ! I am mostly a videographer for fast pace and fitness stuff and i am thinking of buying either the a7s3 or the a74. But I’m more towards the s3 because of the bad performance of the rolling shutter…. What would you do ? Is the rolling shutter really so bad??? Thanks for your advice !

@jacques_crafford

Hey Johnny! Apologies for the late reply, been traveling. Honestly the rolling shutter on the A7IV is not as bad as I thought, I'd say it's usable in about 95% of my shots and in the cases where it's bad I just switch to APS-C mode since that really improves it significantly!

Sony is really focused on making filmmaking more easier. What if they make a new 24-70 gm with this zoom feature ! That would be pretty great . 😵🙅 .. Btw, May I know what matte box you are using? Does that support circular nd filters?

Thanks bro, I agree about the 24-70, that would be a game changer! I'm using the Smallrig Mini Matte Box, it doesn't support circular filters only slide-in but I had a mist filter on the lens which works fine because it doesn't turn like a VND.

Hi Jacques. I've been looking at led lights for video production. I need something that can be used for real estate, restaurants and other corporate work. The godox vl300 seems to be a good option but it's not bi-colour. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for the informative video. If possible can you show us more of the clips on the equestrian estate?

Doesn't the compression also change when you are scalling in post? If you zoom in on the lense or in post, it might have a noteworthy impact of the optical quality, but aesthetically the pictures will in theory look absolutely identical if they have the same amount of pixels. Of course there is barrel distortion and so on, but the compression of the image will be the same. Or am I missing something?

@BryanKeithPhoto

No, the compression doesn't change when scaling in post. The only thing changing is the fov. There is no substitution for dof in post

Your favourite lens is 24-70 GM :) How do you feel about Sony 24-105 in comparison with yours? 1. Image Quality wise (What are the difference in "Cinematic" feeling?) 2. How do you feel about lack of 24-70 in-built OSS? Because your only stabilization is IBIS then. I mean when you imitating gimbal movement with handheld camera. Let's not consider obvious f2.8 vs f4 difference.

@jacques_crafford

2 жыл бұрын

The 24-70mm GM is superior in every way. The obvious difference of F/2.8 is the very thing that will make the image look more "cinematic" over than the F4 of the 24-105mm. You don't need OSS if you use IBIS, honestly I don't see any difference in the stabilisation with and without especially with Active Steady. There's absolutely no reason why I would ever put a 24-105 lens on my camera.

I hear you but I think it has a place, a bit more "niche" than most lenses

Hi, did you notice any focus jump/focus pulsating when you close up to the subject with autofocus on with this lens? Mine seems to have the issue when I use gimbal to go in closer to the subject's face, it seems to have that zoom pump, but it is actually the focus going error for a very fast milliseconds (or looks like focusing the back of the subject in mine), and then slowly focus back to the subject, and it is quite frequent. Attached here is an example (not my video, but a clip I manage to found online which has the same issue as mine), look at the table at the bottom area and you'll understand what I meant: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dqWO0Luql5bggqQ.html Much appreciated for your replies, thank you.

I love your videos but you need to stop telling people "zooming in lens and zooming in post have different compression", as it's wrong and misleading.
