Sony PMW-F3 Super 35mm Camcorder + S-Log RGB 4:4:4 Firmware upgrade (BODY ONLY - if you need lenses see my separate listings: Sony Pl lenses, Samyang cine lenses, and adapter to allow you using Nikon still lenses). If you don't need the upgrade, I do have the F3 camcorder without it, at a cheaper rental price. When the F3 came out, it was priced at almost £13,000 (body only, though cheaper in the US: USD 16,000), and the S-Log upgrade cost USD 3,600. This is just to emphasise the quality of the kit and the value you're getting with my rental price. Included: - Sony PMW-F3 with S-Log upgrade - Sony charger BC-U1 - Battery BP-U60 - Rode SM5 suspension mic mount - Sony remote RM-F300 - Shoulder strap NOT included: SxS cards (see my separate listing) The PMW-F3 has a Super-35mm sized image sensor (resolution 1920 x 1080) designed specifically for HD video acquisition and therefore delivers cinematic shallow depth of field, excellent low light sensitivity and great images. The files recorded to SxS are MP4 at 35 Mb/s, 4:2:0 MPEG-2. Through its HD-SDI dual-link output, the F3 also can capture 10-bit, 4:2:2 S-Log (kind of like Sony’s version of a RAW file or digital negative) to external recorders (like BM Video Assist - see my separate listing) It's lightweight and small; the body weighs 2.4 kg. Power consumption is very lows; battery like BPU-60 runs for about 3 hours. Using an external recorder you can get footage that comes close to the RED. The camera has a paid firmware which places it in an entirely new league. It enables S-Log gamma mode, Dual Link 444RGB video output, 3G-SDI output, 4 pre-loaded LUTs (look up tables) and 5 custom user LUTs. This firmware allows the F3 to output full RGB video in S-Log – opening up the true potential of this camera. S-Log raises the dynamic range of the camera to 800%, and effectively increases the base ISO at 0db from ISO800 to ISO 1600. Dual-Link SDI or 3G-SDI (dual-link on one cable) gives you full RGB444, and the LUTs allow you to monitor video normally while shooting in S-Log. The 5 custom LUT options mean that users can create their own looks. Thanks to outputting 444 RGB you can record to ProRes 444 and get perfect green screen shots. When the F3 came out, it was priced at almost £13,000 (body only), and the S-Log upgrade cost USD3600.
