Surely another way to approach this is to say that the Oscars (and other award ceremonies) are just a load of bollocks. It's not like it's democratic; it's not audiences who vote for best picture, best director, etc. There shouldn't be so much weight given to these awards; they only shore up the kind of attitudes and behaviour that are so problematic. What a screwed-up industry, just ridiculous from top to bottom and back again.

To be picky, the fifth shot in the BBC 5-shot paradigm is a two-shot of the face and hands, logically connecting the close-ups on the hands and the face.

Also worth mentioning is that the HC-X1 is basically the same camera minus the SDI ports and much cheaper (in the UK, £2,000 vs £3,000)

Just to be clear - those two lenses work with IBIS? I think it's true that not all Lumix lenses will work together with IBIS, only the newer ones, so it would be good to know. Thanks!

Derrida is a brilliant film about a brilliant man now much fallen out of favour.

...and a nest of cables, more batteries, still no xlr inputs, no option to put it on your shoulder, no decent evf... At the end of the day, it's a DSLR and therefore a pain in the arse to use. The Ursa mini has the picture AND the ergonomics/practicality and there didn't seem to be anything else around at the moment that will give you that, especially at the price.
