After putting the C70 through its paces for the last three years I've consolidated all my learnings into a course! Linked here: www.ericwalkervideo.com/c70
Good stuff man, just got my C70 and been working through a lot of the same stuff you are here. Look forward to growing with this camera!
Your cuts n humour are def the most interesting in this space Eric :-). Thanks for the share of info!
I'm about to buy the C70 and your videos have been very reassuring hahahaha. Your channel is a blessing man!
Very helpful video...thanks! I also just upgraded my C100 Mark II to the C70 and there’s a little bit of a learning curve. All your videos about the camera have been great!
Thanks for all the hard work on this!
Awesome vid and insightful stuff. Just picked up a c70 and I'm learning my way around it. Thanks!
Great real world experiences you're sharing here - very helpful!
Love this video. Thanks for the awesome tips.
Keep up your good C70 work !!!
Thanks a ton for it all. Especially switch the WFM button to record and turning on the Extended ND!
Well done! Thanks
Really love these C70 videos. I also own one and it’s great that you’re building content around it. Not enough that goes into more detail on how to fully utilize it. Would love to see a video on your most recommended handheld rig set up for this camera and how to build one? This is my first cinema camera, I’m sure like a lot people who purchased this, so would be great to learn how for my first time.
Started with an A7sii and hated adapting, jumped to the C100 mii but looking at this C70, thanks for all the great coverage.
Love it. Thank you!
Very helpful. I enjoyed this a lot. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. I'm looking forward to filming with this camera, very helpful.
Thanks so much. Some great tips I will implement in my next shoot
New sub, my guy! Just rented the C70 for a shoot and I'm lovin it and will continue to rent it until I can purchase it. Your channel has been a huge help these last couple days! Here for the long haul!
Excellent content. Very helpful video. Gotta try false color. On the “extended” ND - I’ve read that “image quality may suffer” when you extend the ND range because it’s apparently stacking multiple filters - so multiple pieces of glass in front of the sensor. I haven’t needed to use extended range, but wanted to pass along what I’ve read in multiple sources.
Thanks a lot for this video! I have an R10 and the same Tamron. Finally the last weekend I had a chance to create my first short video and mostly I used manual focus, but when I turned on the autofocus I had a lot of shake. I didn't know why that's happened until now! Huge tanks! 😄
Absolutely cracking video. Definitely going to remap some of the custom buttons!
Reeealy useful! Thanks a lot for sharing!
great channel, good editing. solid info. thanks
Thanks for this. Rented a C70 for a shoot this week and this video helped me jumpstart.
Solid. I had the same issue with the digital IS. Also your codec video is gold. 🥳
Your coloring is candy pop sweet madness. Very pleasing
Very helpful! Thanks for sharing!
Dude super creative content and editing. Keep it up your channel will eventually blow up.
this is awesome bro !!! thank you !! your the only one doing consistent c70 uploads . this was very helpful #newsub
Love it. Super helpful, bro.
Very helpful!! Thanks a bunch.
fun and informative videos. you got me subscribed!
Super helpful! Thanks so much man!
the c70 will land into my hands this week and then I found your channel. you have a great content bro thanks..
Great video, Thanks.
'Is our whole vlog just gonna be technical jargon' made me chuckle. Great vid.
Good stuff, I'm thinking of upgrading from a eos r. Thanks for these videos.
Great video. I'm hoping to pick up the C70 soon. This video really helped a lot with understanding it. And I noticed you have a few more videos on the C70. So, I have subscribed as well. Cheers.
Good stuff bro 👍🏾👍🏾.. Finally, Someone who actually has something real to say from actually using the c70 instead of just repeating
the same crap that other ppl have said. Thanks bro..
Couldn't agree more
@6:29 hahaha Love that part... the music was so Daniel video'ish and I love his videos too. Good job.
Very useful, thank you
its like any camera it has its little quirks, but dam the image you get out of it is really amazing, i love mine.
great video
False color IS 👌👌👌 and build in NDs are also 🤩
Very cool vids maestro!
Bringing the fire!
Did you end up doing another video with additional tips? This was very useful; thanks!
1:24 lol. I think every TH-camr’s Wife experiences this. They are good sports, aren’t they?
Great review. Thx
Dude. You're awesome. First time watching your stuff. New sub
Thanks, Dave. Huge Golden Hour fan!
@@SoundItOutFilms thanks man!!
Love the channel man. C70 content is awesome. Do you have a workflow for simple color correction in premiere? I always struggle getting it right with the canon conversion Luts in premiere.
this is an excellent video.
liked and subbed.
Appreciate it!
Hey I just bought a C70 and I live in BOSTON!!!! Lets link up
yea I realized real quick switching back and forth on the formats from regular to the S&Q 120 fps was what was causing the buffering issues with my lexars v90s... dont really have that issues with my Sony tough v60s tho so that's nice... it has happened like once or twice button sure if that was fluke or not.. I shot a lot of 120 hahaha love the video man
Hi, I'm late to the party - as usual! I think I've seen some suggestions that using the expanded ND range can result in some minor colour shift, buy don't take my word for it, I may be wrong. I believe it happens because an extra layer of ND is introduced behind the main ND wheel. It's a big bonus though having the capability - shallow d.of f. regardless of the ambient lighting - it's a small price to pay even if I am right in my recollection. BobUK.
Great content, as usual. Were you recording Long GOP when testing that Kingston card? The different results may be due to the fact that the second test record was static, so it didn't have to encode as much data since nothing was changing frame to frame. Just a thought.
Truth
Gosh, this is the best insight of the c70 I have seen on youtube, so helpful. I will stay with my a7s iii for now :) thanks for doing this video, you saved me 6000usd ;)
Lol😆🤣🤣 you girlfriend is priceless… “is our whole vlog going to be technical jargon!”
5:13 - Your 18-35 front element is as grungy as mine!
Here for the jucifer.
lololol
Thanks for making this video. I will be purchasing the Canon C70 soon. I don’t have film or videos background. But, I attended photography school when I was young. When you are done shooting for the day do you save your videos to your computer or do you save to an external drive?
Is this camera too advanced for someone with little to no experience?
5:19 that was really funny because as a filmmaker this whole video didn’t sound like technical jargon, just all understandable and normal to me haha. But probably sounds like another language to many hahaha
Hey Eric. Have you found a cage solution you're using / liking yet or just shooting with the C70 with minimal add-on gear?
I personally just started looking and am considering perhaps some elements from Kondor Blue's cage / rigging options for the C70 and then others from Zacuto. Smallrig's always an option too and I've liked a lot of Movcam and Tilta gear in the past but they take forever to ship / arrive etc. Personally I'd almost grab a few of the Kondor Blue cage elements but with a Zacuto Tactical Handle for the extra flexibility / rotation and the Nato rail it has. The only thing I find missing on the Kondor Blue system is more flexible top handle option and a Nato rail running somewhere down the input / output side of the camera for running a monitor or handle off (of course there'll be plenty of add-on solutions to get to that happening I'm sure). I'm also pretty mindful that whatever I buy I need to ensure it's still a reasonably quick transfer to the RS2 gimbal I have.
When shooting off sticks / monopod or hand held I generally tend to mount to my former cameras with a 502 Small HD monitor on Nato rail based rotatable arm, scratch audio mic and lapel kit receiver.
What's your take on it all RE: adding a cage / building up the C70 when it's needed?
Cheers mate for the entertaining / informative content ;-)
I DON'T like this channel .... I LOVE it hahaa. "subscribed" & "liked". Just got the C70 and you're really helping me out with learning how to use it. Informative, creative and funny!
Just in case no one has mentioned -- manual says focus might shift if you use extended ND, and that, depending on the lens, you might not be able to do infinity focus.
About the issues with EF glass you mention, have you had any issues with Canon EF glass? If so, which ones? Or is it only Tamron, Sigma, etc?
The reason the NDs are “expanded” is cause there are 3 different physical NDs. When it expands it adds one of the previous ones from 1 to 2 to make 8 and 10. You can’t add all three together cause that would start messing with the rear focus.
Hi, there.
I have a very very silly question...
I wanna get a c70 to replace my c100-ii but I'm not sure about the lens mount.
Do you get to choose EF or R or... is the R lens mount the only option.
Can I use EF lenses right off the bat?
I only have EF glass and I have an EOS R so I use ND EF adaptors.
I'm really not sure what this camera comes with...
You're the first one who actually mentioned using the C70 with the Tampon 24-70. I wonder do you have the same problem as I do with chromatic aberration? I can see it like crazy on the footage when filming with 24mm and there seems to be no way to correct the aberration in camera. Important to mention that chromatic aberration had never been an issue with any other canon mirrorless camera...
Def saw somewhere else that the Tamron lens issue can be resolved with a firmware upgrade to the lens.
had any issues with the hinge on the LCD screen? Seems to be a major weakness a lot of people are having problems with
Man I had that Tamron 24-70 lens on my EOS R and it was doing the same thing and I didn’t know why. That’s for the info man!
It's good to know I'm not alone!
you had to change the extanded nd beccause when you do this is uses 2 bits of glass on top of eachother insted if just 1 layer
H.265 is only bad if you’re editing on a potato. That’s why having a good editing rig is a necessity. Ryzen 9 5950 and Quadro A6000 makes everything smooth. if you don’t have that much for a GPU, get a Titan or 3090
Thank you. Would you please make a video about the browser remote function using a Web browser to control the camera? Desktop version of browser remote can do more things. I wonder whether it can be used to control the AE lock and AF servo lock? thank you
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into it!
How to use the Exposure Compensation AE-Shift Manually? Mine grayed out!
Hey, great video - thanks for info. Just wanted to add that SanDisk cards also don't work. I bought the 300mb/s and it buffered and reported error but I got the sony 300/299 today and it works great.
I'm a little worried. I hear that about theSanDisk, but I haven't had a problem with those cards. I own about six of them so I hope they continue to work. I get the warning that they aren't compatible with whatever setting the camera is in, but I was still able to recored in the highest 4K settings and even with 120fps. Maybe I need to do more testing and longer takes. The only time I've used it on a paid job so far I ran the camera for an hour straight in XF-AVC 4K Long GOP at 30fps with no problem, but I guess that's no surprise because of the 160Mbps of that codec.
Regarding the c100: try cine match. It works great with the c100. As it does with all the cameras:/)
Hey, wondering if you've downloaded the new firmware and your thoughts?
what are some good luts to import into c70 for a baked in image ?
Nice!! Are you glad you got it?
Yea, I love it!
@@SoundItOutFilms Awesome! Trying to decide between the C70 and FX3 !!!! Testing the FX3 right now to see how I feel about their new color science and all that.
Weirdly my Kingston cards do just fine in the C70.
Dont bash the kingston! Its a great sd card, I can record all formats and framerates with ion my a7siii, super reliable
Hi! I'm planning on buying a C70, and I have a tamron 24-70 ef 2.8 Gen 1; how does the autofocus perform with the ef to rf adapter? i would use it in some live events, so I need it to be fast and accurate. Is it reliable? Thank you! :)
What about image stabilization in general? Do you use lenses with IS for handheld work? Is that enough to get stable image? Also for run and gun situations, do you use the gimbal ?
I've got videos on the channel about my gimbal setup and an in-depth look at the camera's digital IS!
ive had zero issues with the kingston cards in the C70 at 120fps 420/422, even shooting super16 180fps hmmm
if you had the right computer would you use mp4 h.265?
Man you are the only one I have found that had C100 Mark II and talks about the c70 IS which has a lot of microjitters! Im on the same park using most of the time my Canons 16-35 f4L is and 70-200 f4L is and while the stabilization on these lenses is ON the jitters are there and very prominent! I didn't have that kind of jitters with my C100 Mark II! I cannot understand why there is so tremendous difference! Did you find any way to fix it..?
What about gain / iso remapping?
Great video! I just got my C70 - how do I enable the the green square that indicates something is in focus?
You get that indicator when you are in manual focus mode.
@@GeorgeLoch Weird. There must be some other setting because mine doesn't show by default. To the manual I go.
DId some test shots yesterday at the beach in clog 3, 800 iso, 180 degree and nds. I ended up having a decent amount of noise in the shadows. Is this just me under exposing the shot and because of that I am ending up with more noise in post?
I'm wondering if you've experienced something like this, but I bought a Julio BP A60 battery and it's only giving me a reading of 238 minutes after discharging and charing it twice with the C70... it should be giving me a read out of 438 min. Any thoughts on what might be going on here?
Hi, I saw on someone else’s video that the Autofocus/Facetracking is not available on Slow and fast mode over 24Fps. Is that true? Does it just become continuous autofocus in slow motions?
Yea, it's actually a huge bummer... I've started to use 120 more after I made this and it's been mildly frustrating
@@SoundItOutFilms Wait, there's no AF at all for slow mo?
@@dna8269 there is autofocus but no tracking (face or object). There are workarounds, however... and I'm working on a new video about this very topic right now!
ideally you should transcode your H.265 or H.264 to ProRes or HNxHR before editing, because editing either of those is not efficient at all.
have you used the proxy record function? do you still need a 300mb/s card for those or can you save money and get like a sandisk pro or something less beefy?
Haven’t used it much but yea you can use much cheaper SD cards for sure
H.265 works fine in DaVinci, Premiere is always problematic
When you come back to Texas Breakfast tacos on me!
So, find a solution from the most unexpected place. I use a canon r with the same tamron lens, and that glitch is killing me. Literally, the single most annoying thing, I had to rewrite the script of stories because of that glitch happened, had to reshoot because of one frame had it, and all sequence was unusable. I have to upgrade but I will do it in steps, didn't know if it is because the lens or the body, and this just gave me the answer. So, I will go with a rf 24-105 before switching to r6mark2. Thank you, this was a really big issue
Mhhhhmmm Couple things here Eric. There is a record function on the screen dead center top if you enable it. That should cover you on that side of the camera . Just a light touch and you can start stop pretty easy. I have several Tamrons and found none of them have an issue with VC being on and affecting e stabilization. Might be a firmware on your lens seeing as you are sporting the older Tamron 24-70. I have a couple of those and have had to get firmware installed previously for other cameras. Worth a shot.
As for the Kingston card. That one is a bit surprising since I have used those almost exclusively for several months. It is a V90 card so it is rated to deliver a MINIMUM of 90 MB/s or 720 mb/s so that camera will not see that kind of data rate requirement. I have shot pretty lengthy shots using Slow and Fast including 120 FPS. Never an issue so far. Kingston make some pretty killer SSDs. If you know the whole Ninja V world you'll see that Atomos has a list of rated SSDs and the only one that can deliver the highest demand data rate is the Kingston DC500M in any size of drive. So I kind of find it a bit difficult to Kingston cannot make a decent V90 card. It works for me.
The camera is tremendous ... It really is pretty difficult to make the images look bad out of that camera Have fun.
Thanks for your thoughts! Did you use the Tap-in Console to update your Tamron firmware?
@@SoundItOutFilms firmware installed by Tamron . I have the older one like yours but have a couple of the newer G2 versions. Auto focus is pretty impressive with one touch so not sure I need any further firmware.
My C70 comes today which i'm absolutely buzzing for but i've yet to buy a reliable SD card option, if the kingstons can be a bit dodgy what would say is the most triumphant option out there? I was looking at either the Angelbird v90 256GB or the SONY Tough v90's but they only go up to 128GB!
I haven't had any issues with the Pro Grade 128
@@SoundItOutFilms is that no issues on all frame rates? I appreciate the heads up I’ll totally check those out, I’d personally say you’ve been the best guy for the C70 reviews so I hope your channel blows up, I’d love to see a video based on the best RF lenses for the C70, I went with the RF 28-70 f2
My Commlite on my R6 drains battery even when the camera is off... So I just got my c70 , VERY strange... outside it buffers in 120 with PRO card...and when I record inside it does not.
