    As you mentioned, when I started doing volunteer video filming for non-profits, I used Canon pro-summer video camcorders. Then multi-cam editing with FCPx. They were great. You have done an excellent job reviewing the HF-G70 - (subscribed). Stayed with Canon for DSLR: 60D --> 80D --> EOS-R8 mirrorless (Tanzania camera safari - a must) Considering using this HF-G70 for a political group hybrid-Zoom meetings: in-person meeting attendees also with remote Zoom participants.

    Just got one for kids soccer. I was originally looking at mirrorless, but lens complexity/price quickly put those out of range. I can show-up, drop this camera on a tripod, hit record, and move it side to side while paying attention to the match instead of babysitting the camera. With tripod, spare batteries, and 256 GB cards, it was half the price of a mirrorless naked body. Honestly, all I wanted was, "can do 4K for two hours without interruption" and this fit the need. I started the camera search with my nose in the air. To me, camcorders were very 80s. Price/capability of this thing for my use-case was impossible to beat, especially when considering the wallet/time/simplicity factors. Going from $1K for the camera to $1.6K is a leap for a humble soccer dad, and I actually don't want more features to navigate. It's like comparing Apple and Samsung phones based on the number of camera features 99% of users will never use. Point and shoot has value on its own. 🙂 All said, this is a great review from the perspective of someone who knows cameras.

    my biggest problem with these converters, is even if you select a 4:3 resolution on your mac, the image gets squished and never lines up correctly with the crt tv. I wish there was a fix to this but I haven’t found one so far.

    • @VideoGizmology
      @VideoGizmology 5 днів тому

      I sometimes have this issue, but then most of the time it's perfect 4:3. I haven't figured out why this is happening, but my solution has been to turn everything off, unplug, and then play around with my output aspect ratios. It's the best way to solve this, but that has worked for me so far.

    I've watched a few videos with "head to head" comparisons of M2 and Max. There are so many variables, but the differences I heard were the same. The Lark is muddy. The other review switched on "Vocal Boost" and now it's muddy with over-hyped mid-highs. So many cool features on Max, but it's not going to work for vocals. Maybe interviews is the limitation (and purpose).

    Lets not kid ourselves, the only reason they can cram all this into such a small package with that kind of zoom, is the sensor size of 1/2.5 inches, and I am not saying thats bad, camcorders have their places too, its just such a shame that camcorders are taking a backseat in todays world, the camera control on modern camcorders are just awful, the grip is fine but older camcorders let you control shutter and aperture with right hand, the same hand you holding the camcorder with, so its all one hand operation, modern camcorders have these awful little buttons to push, that being said while photo body is complete opposite of comfort for videoshooting, at least it has physical buttons and dials. I really miss oldschool camcorders, man they were so ergonomically good.

      If you watch some of the early release videos about the X1500, the sales rep says exactly what you said. The only way they could cram the features into the camera is due to the small sensor size. The rep even said if you need better low light filming, buy the GH5. LOL. Not all older camcorders had all the manual controls on the body, only the prosumer ones. I remember using camcorders from the 90s to early 2000s that were just like the X1500 manual controls. It's like these camera manufactures do this on purpose. haha.

    I know you wanted your 23.98, just a reminder that NTSC is(was) 29.97. Scale is a matter of preference too, but I'm not a fan of pillar boxing a 16:9 frame to maintain the 4:3 aspect of the video. That being said, I'm not archiving anything so I prefer 30fps progressive. If I had your gear I'd try 720p60 on the up-convertor and then apply the appropriate PAR to get a 4:3 image out of it.

      True. If you just wanted to archive the analog video, you should do it at 29.97p or 60p to keep the frame rate similar. But for documentaries or narratives that are filmed in 23.98p, you'd want to change the frame rate of the analog video for that.

    Of course the DJI Mike is bigger. It’s got internal recording. Dude started off the review talking about bag with a zipper.

      Sorry, upshiftgo, but that's how I do my videos. Some people like it, others don't. Such is life on the internet. Cheers.

    Shame sony discontinued including an inflight adapter as with previous models!

      I think it might be because various airlines now have different types of audio connectors. But yeah, it would have been nice.

    XF400, save for the 422 10-bit - is a better camera.

    • @VideoGizmology

      I agree that the XF400 has better image quality, but if you need the major features I highlighted in my video, the X1500 is a better tool than the XF400 for specific types of recording situations, such as when you need a long zoom range, 25-600mm, or 4+ hour battery life, or matching with other Panasonic camcorders for a multi-camera event.

    With respect, you DID have a method of testing if it was plugged in properly. The receiver's audio meter for CH2 was clearly not kicking so the transmitter wasn't getting any audio. I can only imagine that you are a one man band who had a million other variables to juggle, and didn't have enough time to make sure everything was operating properly. I'm glad you had a backup audio solution.

      You can read my pinned comment at the top for more details. There are instances where the receiver is not showing the wireless signal from the transmitter, but still recording internally. So yes, you are correct in the fact that clearly not seeing the audio meters move was a sign no audio was transmitting, but that didn't mean no audio was recording internally to the mic pack as I was assuming. Or at least that's the logic I had before this incident happened. But after doing many tests afterwards, you can, in fact, unpair the wireless signal, but still record internally to the transmitter, because it can function as a recorder without being in sync with the receiver.

    how can I use camera receiver and record 2 channels on Logic Pro? is there any way to do it? or I can use the lightning to minijack dongle to register 2 separate tracks with the camera receiver? thanks!

    I understand your pain. When you don't know the quirks of a new system this happens. Experience is the best teacher.

    Alway know your gear before going in the field. Also there is a correct way to attach the mic to the clip so it doesn’t rotate. And yeah the windshields could be a better fit

      My pinned comment explains my situation in more detail. It's very easy to say, "always know your gear" -- I have yet to meet a seasoned professional who still doesn't make mistakes, but if you happen to be someone who never makes mistakes, more power to you.
