Hi guys, i was wondering if anyone has any experience with this camera, as I am thinking of buying one, to go alongside my chinnon 671. The chnnon is superb but I am now looking to up my game... My chinnon works well, but I am looking to add to my arsenal, and I need the option of a 220 degree shutter IF so needed.
Number 1: This will not meter 64T stock correctly, no problem with manually setting the exposure. Number 2: Will this meter Velvia 50 fine at 40ASA... velvia is fine exposed at 40 for still photography so i would not see why not... Number 3: Is the 220 degree shutter going to cause a noticeable loss of sharpness, my chinnon apparently has a shutter angle of less than 180 degrees, gives a sharp, crisp image. I need a 220 shutter for party conditions AND as Velvia is 50ASA i would rather the extra stop of speed for some purposes (they are going to be loading V100 also i think)
I have some 100D left, this camera would expose it at 160ASA, i could always do 2/3 of a stop push, leave it as is or manually set exposure, 160 ASA is within 100Ds latitude...
Any advice or knowledge on this camera would be appreciated! As many videos with such cameras are in low 360p quality on the web and many lack the sharpness factor I am looking for! Hopefully this is just a factor induced by the low quality video
Thanks
