Immediately checked and got it. I somehow had misread the default ISO 12800 limit in 4K to be the max limit. I will now have to test and see how good the higher ISOs are.

Most reviews got it wrong and said that 12800 was a hard and fast upper limit for 4K. Not the case.

I haven't tested it yet to see what's usable.

Dan - the client let me put together a little video with some samples of the clip library I created for them. The video opens with the distillery footage.

The first three clips are 4K 60P on the 1DX Mark II & conformed to 24p in post for slow-motion. The rest of the footage is with the C300.

Nicely done Jon. My wife has been there with my son but I was not on the trip, would love to see it in person. Great photography. Which jib did you use? Did you have help or were you one man banding it? Was this a job with a client or just tests?

Dan - thanks!

The jib was a Kessler Pocket Jib Traveler. I had one assistant but I was working in tandem with a stills photographer who also had an assistant. So, lots of group effort as needed and where needed.

The elevated exteriors were shot from a 40' lift.

This was a job to create a b-roll library.
