hello people !
I'm a bit confused what to get really !
I want a small camera that has excellent primes sharp great color and bokeh as smooth as melted butter.
fuji xe-1 with 35mm f1.4 or xpro1 kind of would fit the bill ! but ! the video on x-e1 for example is quite standard and you can't change most of the settings .
Then there are the nice MF film rangefinders etc. that cost quite some monies but give amazing stills.
or - something like 60d for stills/video or just a 5d mk1 for now and upgrade to mkII in few months time. all of the cameras would be bought with prime lenses .
budget around 700 for now. another problem for the fuji - if I were to buy 3x lenses that would cost me 1000+ or less if s/h and lucky. could use old olympus lenses for now but video still seems to be the issue.
problem with 60d - chunky. I would like something I can take with me everyday . another minus - pics seem to be a bit too generic , but the video capabilities are awesome.
5d - big but .... full frame !!
MF - amazing stills but would be harder to find clients for such portraiture although, photography wise I would be more focused on long term projects working with various people and covering their lives rather then doing weddings or commissioned portraits.
Is there a one fits all camera for such a delusional person as me ? has anyone used xpro1 for example for professional music videos etc ?
regards,
D.
