    My daily workhorse is a C70 paired with the Canon 18-80. Great tools that will get the job done.
  • @sakhiwomthunzi
    Literally bought a brand new C70 two weeks ago! Absolutely fantastic camera. I switched from the BMPCC 6K and 6K G2, I just needed something much simpler and requires little to no rigging. Plus it pairs well with my R6 MKII.
  • @scottievee7467
    By far my favorite camera. The image is what we sell and the image is smokin!!
  • Even as an FX3 owner, I definitely think the C70 is worth it in 2024. Like so many other cameras on the market, the C70 is a tremendous piece of tech and you can pretty much cut between any of these cameras and fool even the trained eye. I feel like a slew of amazing cameras got released since 2020 and camera tech has almost plateaued. It really just comes down to personal preferences and use cases. These cameras will only diminish in relevancy when 4k ceases to be the standard which might be 4-6 years.

    I purchased one a month ago, and I absoutely love it I wish I had purchased one years ago :( I have been using my R6 for video but I wanted something dedicated for video and the image from the C70 is beautiful 🤩

    Best camera I have ever owned. I considered buying the RED Komodo OG when it first launched, but after holding and shooting with the C70 for 10 min. I was OBSESSED!!! This camera is so much fun to shot with, so yeah it’s diffenately worth it❤️
  • @Sutterjack
    Came from a C100 M2 (still a great camera!) so my new C70 is freakin' awesome. I understood the pros and cons of the super 35 sensor so no big shock. I still think the Panasonic S52 is insanely great for the money but once you've had built-in ND's very hard to go back. Terrific battery life. My only big problem is no EVF - Outdoors I really find it a problem.Great camera for my documentary style work - still a solid workhorse -

    Wassup Javier! I use the Canon C70 for my YouTube channel and professional work as well. I bought mine in Oct. 2022 and I completely agree. I don’t ever see myself investing in another work camera that doesn’t have the following features…Built in ND’s, mini or full size XLR audio inputs, or false color. If the C70 MII has SDI, I’m sold. Great video 🫱🏽‍🫲🏾
  • Is a new C70 set to release or do we know how much it might change from the current camera. Debating whether to buy now or when the next camera releases?
  • @louie8488
    just fyi, the increased f stop with the speedbooster changes the light gathering only, it doesn't suddenly make your lens go from a 2.8 to a 2 in regards to DOF. It does let you use longer focal lengths for the same angle of view which gives you shallower DOF, but it is equivalent to using a FF camera. Using a 50mm 2.8 on a FF camera and using a 50 2.8 (boosted to f2 with the speedbooster) on the C70 = same image just a stop more light otherwise great video, owned both the C70 and the Fx3, C70's image is way better, but the lack of ibis is a pain for doc work if you don't want to go full RF
  • @jaimejrking
    The C70 is great but I never got used to using it at weddings because of the size and weigth, in the end I made a trade in adorama, the C70 and speedbooster for 2 Lumix S5II and an S5, the lumix IBIS makes my life easier! But the C70 is nice camera
  • @pizzlesshorts
    That being said you really shouldn't have to send it in for a repair. I'm glad I got there warranty extended.
  • @DrWasim
    Your wedding films look like cinema movies 😍
  • @DuffTV
    Thanks for the video, feeling your passion.. What about the image, I mean Sonys look Sony and the C70 is so buttery
  • @MyekalBenham
    This camera is so good that in 2 weeks from posting this video I purchased an fx3...........
