Praise our beloved 2x Crop mirrorless beauties here (photo AND video discussion encouraged)

Pause. These have a double crop sensor? Aren't these supposed to be the low light Kings?

no - they're known for not being as good as full frame in low light, but most video SLR style cameras bar sony's lineup and a few fringe canon/nikons worth using all use the format

plus apparently bird photog's love it cos they essentially double zoom

Interesting. Always thought you'd need the best low light performance for video.

kinda the opposite if you HAVE lights - it's obviously useful but if you light your scene well it's fine and if anything its counter intuitive to video/filmmaking to get a camera with low light performance instead of spending that money on a good lighting setup

that plus the fact that most cine cameras dont even use full frame cameras they're super 35 (around the size of an aps-c sensor or low level canon)

currently using olympus omd em5 ii, what're yall using?

Hmmm I learned something today

panasonic g7 and also my mate's gh5 for university stuff when i can get my hands on it

gh5 is phenomenal man its so nice to handle and the footage that comes out of it is so nice

i mean low light is good but its not CINEMATIC to sacrifice lighting a set and using a camera with a full frame camera.

if you're a run and gun videographer it becomes WAY more attractive to get full frame for video.
