Re: Delivery by hard drive?
I prefer USB 3.0 portable hard drive, just because it's less likely to be lost and easier to keep track of.

Re: Did it really need two?
Even as the video guy, I still bring along my Nikon D90 and 70-200 F2.8 VR2 and 17-55 F2.8 and do try to snap some pictures during the day, to post to social media. Not a ton, but a few.

Re: A7s or GH4 - which for you?

Re: Has the FS100 always been $2,499?
This week, I've been doing a lot of comparison between a lot of options and I'm pretty sure it was $3499/$3999 without/with a lens.
I was comparing it to the Canon C100. I think I'd really like...

Re: upgrade from canon xa20 to sony
I have both an XA20 and NX5.
I got the XA20 specifically to supplement my NX5 as a backup, because at the time the XA20 was the only "small" camera with a 20x zoom.

Re: Nikon D7100
My understanding is you can not change the aperture once you are in live view mode.
You still have control over Shutter and ISO.
At least, that's how it was on the D610 I borrowed and it and...

Re: Advice on outdoor shooting
If shooting in pretty different locations, I'd probably want to make sure and white balance each time so that all 3 locations look similar and that will help save time in post.
