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. It will make your footage look sharper if it’s in focus, and it gives you breathing room in post. But 1080p is still absolutely fine
>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

Besides the obvious like applying a film-preset (which looks terrible and not like film 100% of the time), messing with black levels and applying grain, what's missing for it to get the softness, colors and "feel" of film?

hey /p/, i'm thinking of getting a camera and ditching my phone and i'm looking one of the best cameras of this size (it can be bigger that's fine but never like a dslr) but that i can at least swap the lenses, i don't know much about modern cameras but if there are some with usb-c so i can quickly transfer the photos to my pc and no gps/antena/wi-fi garbage just photos and videos with basic interface no bullshit

How do you carry your camera in your bag without breaking it?
I have an Olympus Pen Lite E-PL5 and I have a leather case for it that protects it pretty well in my backpack, but I just picked up a used Olympus OM-D E-M10 (the first model) and I can't find any similar cases specific to this model (everything I'm finding is for the later versions of this model and I'm not sure if they're compatible with the original version.
What do you suggest? Or does anyone know if cases for the later versions will still fit this one? I want a case like I use now which is a leather jacket that attaches to the camera via the tripod mount, and then there's a cover to protect the lens which snaps onto the jacket.
