All video related questions and discussion is intended for this thread. Here we discuss techniques, gear and anything else related to capturing video footage. Please don't pretend to be an expert if you don't know what you're talking about. Kindly leave your ego at the door.
Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.
We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras and higher) and have interchangeable lenses.
In contrast, consumer camcorders often have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.

Quick FAQS
>what’s the best camera available on a “budget”?
The blackmagic pocket cinema camera 4k, or the Panasonic gh5 (can pick one up for like 500 bucks atm)
>what’s a good beginner video camera?
Anything that works, shoots at least 1080p and preferably has interchangeable lenses. Any recommendation beyond that will cause arguments so read the fucking sticky if that isn't satisfactory.
>What's a good sound solution that won't break the bank?
Zoom h1
>Can I use a zoom lens for video?
Yes
>Do I need cine lenses?
No
>Do I need 4k?
No. 1080 looks great on a cinema screen. 4k looks better.
>Can someone tell me if my video is any good?
Yes, but be prepared to receive harsh criticism. If you're going to waste 5 minutes of our time with a shitty out-of-focus montage of nothing then we'll tell you that it's crap
>Is it okay to dox myself?
...Personally I wouldn't but what do I know?

I have these two older flashes. Neither work.

Minolta was thrifted without testing for like $10.

277T speedlite came with an old Canon T70 I received as a hand-me-down.

Do these older flashes just die? Feel like I've tried most of the usual hacks to get it back. Left it on for a few hours to recharge capacitors, cleaned the contacts. Opened up the Minolta and thought I was gonna die from discharge so closed it right back up.

Minolta charges up and makes sound but never fires, 277T doesn't even charge up.

Any other hairbrained ideas to get these working?

Antiquated architecture edition.

What’s the highest possible resolution camera that fits in a shirt pocket and uses SD cards (not Micro SD)? Bonus points if it uses AA batteries, but USB charging is okay.

This is getting out of hand.

It has no competitor

How does /p/ feel about zines?

They seem fun. You print your stuff, distribute it however you want, and people look at it. They might toss it in the trash but at least you made an impression.

You can make them for pretty cheap. I made some lo-fi DIY-style ones with my visual art at home using just an inkjet printer, and I've been dropping them in random places for people to find.

Anyone ever make zines?

This post is for stupid questions that don't deserve their own thread.

Is a micro four thirds good enough for a road trip camera? I want a camera that can take good photos, especially at night, the sky, and landscapes and documenting.
I currently have an EM 1-III, but I keep wondering if it's actually good enough, and it is, and I'm just being taken for a ride with gear autism, or if it is actually shit
I really, REALLY, want an "always carry" camera that can do anything, in any weather
