The 70-200 f2.8 lens
I just had two shoots that used a 70-200 f2.8 lens.
One was with my FS5 and a Canon lens with a Metabones adapter. The other was with an FS7 & A7S II with a Sigma lens, also with a Metabones...

Re: 18-105 F4 lens, anyone?
Speaking of the 18-200, my friend has the FS7 with the 28-135, but his go-to lens is the 18-200. He likes the very long zoom range. For his style of shooting, it's his favorite lens.
I wouldn't mind...

You might be right about Sony calling most any pro camera an XDCAM. Not sure.
XDCAM has always been an MPEG 2 codec. It comes in the broadcast friendly XDCAM HD 50mbps, 4:2;2, 8-bit variety and the...

Re: FS5's XDCAM update
Yeah, it's a lot. But I'll get it, because I have definite use for the codec, more so than the 4K RAW update.
At least the camera will live up to its XDCAM logo on the body.

Re: 18-105 F4 lens, anyone?
I use mine on my FS5 all the time. I have the 28-135 as well, but the 18-105 is far more comfortable for hand hold use. It's not the perfect lens, but it does a good enough job. Having a power zoom...

Re: FS5's XDCAM update
XDCAM is still, by far, the most requested codec for broadcast use. That, and the Canon equivalent. It's pretty much my bread and butter.
In fact, I lost a job last week because the client...

Re: FS5 - V2.0 and V2.1 Details
I just sold my PMW-300. I really like XDCAM being available for my FS5. It's still a much requested codec from many of my broadcast clients.
They don't care for 4K at all.
