Koa, you are using an older G35(static)?
and the Relay Lens?...
I have a letusXL35 with relay and it's quite wonderful...
Nice work

I've tried the h264 but it looks crappy... plus my computer is way too slow. Anyway it's the older static G35, I'm totally happy with it, and have been pushing it's limits constantly-it definitely holds up big time. I still think it's the sharpest one out there, the only one that I can see coming close is the Brevis-I like that one:), and I wish I had a relay lens-but as we learned in film history, limits are what allow for creativity. It squeezes the range into a nice curve I can work with, and the best thing is that I can really light the scenes which ever way I want. It's great, no complaints here, and my prof's think I shoot on 35mm:) One thing though, I will never shoot a narrative without a 35mm fov ever~ I want one of those red cameras!

Koa, what 35mm lenses did you use for your shorts?

What did you use for sound? It was pretty clean.

How much did you pay for the G35 and when did you get it?
