    Great review, I’ve been a Sony fanboy for ever and really trying to convince myself the C70 is better than a FX6. I need a change and I think the C70 is the one although I’m really confused with the RF mount and Canon lenses.

    I think if you’re already invested in Sony go for the FX6 but the c70 is also a great camera. The RF mount is basically jsur letting us use either rf lenses or Ef lenses converted to RF with the adapter

    Great video🙂 Is there a focal reducer for RF 24-70 F/2.8 lens to avoid cropping when using it with C70? I currently have Canon R6 with RF 24-70, thinking of replacing it with C70 but don't like the idea of 1.5 crop of the image.

    Surprised you're having AF issues. Have you done the latest firmware. The only time I've had focus issues was if I had vey shallow DOF in a not so great lighting shot. Bump the Fstop a bit and it's fine.

    Wow, 16 stops of dynamic range? This is actually RED territory, but with a true run-and-gun camera. How do you like it vs. RED/Arri, specially its dynamic range? And is its autofocus as good as Sony?

    I haven’t used red or ARRI honestly but the dynamic range has been amazing for me. And it’s autofocus isn’t amazing but I mostly do manual focus so it’s not that big of an issue for me

    True that. Plus type B is a lot faster and less prone to overheating. They're one of the best investments we can make now as more and more manufacturers adopts them as the media of choice, especially if the camera does ProRes and/or RAW internally (XH2S, Komodo X, Z8, Z9, R5C,...) The only manufacturers not concerned is Sony, with their proprietary Type A cards, with no ProRes or RAW capabilities (why are they so popular is a mystery to me)
