  • Such a cool shot by @linford.miles from last Friday when about 8 FS7 shooters from around Europe got to try out the new @sonyprofilmmaking FX9. This was me most of the day, I had a million and one questions about the camera and if it could do X, Y and Z for the Sony boffins from Japan, especially around autofocus! I think a good hour was spent with us huddled around with me posing them challenging questions as to if it could do something and if not can you make it do that in firmware (as well as a thousand requests for a touchscreen for it!) My blog post is up with lots of footage from the day (downloadable too) flaws and all as I navigated this new camera and how to get the best from it in a very short period of time. In the video sometimes the AF Is better than other shots. It’s all down to the settings. The edit is not chronological, for example the male dancer was the first thing I shot. I am saying this for the complainers who aren’t seeing perfection in every single shot and are telling me about it. Anyway check it out. Link in bio. 🙂
  • EDIT: video and downloads are ready. Link in bio. This is a test shot taken with the #SonyFX9 last week when I had a couple of hours hands on with it. I will post my initial thoughts soon as well as some full Rez clips on my blog as soon as I can, just travelling right now. This is full frame, Sony FX9, Zeiss 50mm Planar F1.4 in autofocus mode and in S Cinetone profile totally untouched directly out of camera.
  • I had a chance to shoot with the just announced #SonyFX9 last week, not for long but enough to get some test footage which I will try to share later today on my blog. It’s an impressive camera. Full frame finally and with absolutely superb autofocus (but bizarrely) no touch screen LCD. Their new S Cinetone profile just gorgeous with stunning skin tones. I will post a shot to show this next but please hold on for full 4K as I am travelling right now. Thanks! I hope to get the camera for a decent amount of time sometime to really get to know it and make a video with it. Photo by @linford.miles
  • A quick little shoot and edit for my workshop for photographers wanting to learn more about video. Filmed walking to and in my hotel room in #Copenhagen #Denmark Filmed with the @sonyalpha #A7RIV Sony 135mm F1.8 GM 28mm F2 and Voigtlander 40mm F1.2 Music from @audionetwork
  • I finally got to put the @insta360 go onto my cats to see how well it worked. Lollipop wore it as she’s the nuttiest. @thebloomcats You can see my review of the camera via the link in my bio. Music “Bad Cat” from @audionetwork
  • My first hands on with the @panasonicproeu SH1. I held it for about 2 minutes and didn’t shoot a single moment of video or photo. So I am ready for the questions asking if it’s the best camera I have ever used and whether you should buy it 🤣 Photo by @epampuri
  • The fun type of plane spotting. @skiathos airport with the @fujifilmx_uk #GFX100 and 110mm F2. All handheld Any aliasing is Instagram. None on the GFX
