Teaching an old dog new tricks..... I started out in still photography at the age of 12, way back in the film days. Back then , photos cost a lot of money, with film , processing , and then printing , just to see a shot that may not have worked at all!! You had to know what you were doing with exposure, focus and shutter speed , to avoid wasting money on dud shots. Fast forward a few....ok , many decades, and I'm back with a new challenge with the SONY FS-5 CInema Camera. Now while the FS-5 can be fully auto , it was designed to be a serious Cinema , and is still highly regarded almost a decade after it's launch.
Join me for a quick tour of the FS-5 , and how I set it up for "Prime" and Zoom lenses.
