First clips from the MKIII from Motion_Poland:
You forgot to mention that you already have over 12,000 clips. WOW!

Nice clip from that camera. Are you saving in the I frame mode? Do you see a difference in file size and quality?
I looked at the FS700 at NAB. Great video and very cool slow motion but I have to much money invested in Canon mount lenses to get something different and the stock lens they ship with it is slow and basically not very good optic quality.

i only use i frame mode, didn't compare it to that other mode so i can't say if there is any difference in footage quality.
about canon mount lenses and fs700 i saw one film where one guy from sony was saying that with cheap adapters you can attach any lens to their camera, so i hope that is true.

Yes, there are cheap adaptors, the problem is if you have EOS lenses, you won't have aperture control.
The Metabones adaptor does have electronic aperture but its $400

I looked at the full-rez frame grab to see the quality of the new camera, and to me, it looks very compressed. Look at their shoulders. Very blocky.
But perhaps that's just the frame grab. But shouldn't the frame grab be a true representation of the clip itself?

remember that the footage is only 1920x1020. When looking at 100 or 200% it is increased well above the pixel level of photos. From doing some checking it looks like a 1920x1080 can be printed at about a 19"x10" photo at only 100 dpi. Frame grabs from video just isn't the same quality of a real photo.

@ motion & kk5hy I have a Nikon to EOS adapter with a slide to adjust aperture that I used with my Tokina 11-16 it cost around $40 I think.

Do you have a link for that?
The difference with the Metabones is it talks to the camera and lens so you adjust the aperture with the camera just like the Sony lens.
I guess if you're spending $9k on a camera what's another $400? :)
