Sorry if i go on been in video for over 30 years in all those years i have had loads of cameras latest one being SONY PMW 350 WITH A VERY EXPENSIVE FUJINON HD LENS very good camera i might add. i have small cams aswell SONY NX70 SONY NX30 but only a few weeks ago i baught a SONY FS 700 realy awkward to use at first.but i percivered I also baught a TAMRON 70-300 TAMRON 28-75 got stock lens SONY 18-200 with cam also baught a few other lenses all the lenses and cam put together no were near came to what i paid for my FUJINON HD LENS The images i have got from this camera are amazing DOF SLOW MO Just brilliant i love it . To critical focus i baught a ZACUTO EVF AND A ZAMERICAN ARM They work perfect. It just dose so much with differant lenses on its like haveing loads of cameras but the lens costs a relativly cheap.One last thing i filmed a big asian wedding in London only had cam a day we had bride ang groom walking around outside at nite time put on TAMRON 28-75 2.8 LENS (£185.00 ON EBAY) no lights footage fantastic anyway will stop going on. To everybody i wish you all a very happy christmas Wilf. .

So you like it then ;-)

Glad it's working out for you. Try it with some f1.4 prime lenses if you really want to see some incredible low light or shallow DoF images. The Samyang 24 and 35mm T1.5 lenses are really good entry level prime lenses.

I do like it Alister yes its so versatile.I have been looking at those lenses on the net today.When i baught my lens for my 350 it was nearly £9000.00 these lenses are a few hundred .I realy am so pleased with it. My partners sons boxing in the garden christmas eve with only the security lite on i set my camera to 200 fps tamron 2.8 lens no other lights super slow motion you could see there face muscules moveing brilliant. When its on the tripod it looks like sputnic 3 i have got mikes evfs alsorts conected to it ,run and gun manfrotto monopod and not much else love it.The other thing i would like to mention its so well suported buy third party companys you can buy allsorts of rigs lens converters frames allsorts of things that ar'nt expensive (i sound like a soddin advert for sony) but i am not.I am looking forward to useing it properly in ernest after all my testing and getting used to it. Thanks again Wilf.
