The ultimate magazine for next generation filmmakers

GEAR 45 SOUND OF SUCCESS

Audio can be an Achilles heel for many filmmakers, as it’s an art often understood by few. We dig into a dozen stunning products that can take the pain out of capturing a super soundtrack. 50 BARGAIN 10K CINEMA CAMERA It might seem odd saying a camera that costs five figures is great value, but Canon has just lopped a serious amount of cash off its EOS C500 Mark II. We re-evaluate this full- frame beast and see if it’s worth the lower price. 54 THE NEXT GENERATION IS HERE Some of the biggest-selling cameras these days aren’t pricey cine cams, but the new, remote-controlled PTZ models. We take a look at this fast-emerging market and pick out some of the finest available. 62 BEST ALL-ROUND EOS MIRRORLESS? The Mark II version of the Canon EOS R6 is fine-tuned for filmmaking as well as shooting stills. We put it through its paces to see if it’s the ultimate full-frame mirrorless for hybrid shooters. 68 MINI TESTS: TOP KIT USED AND RATED We put a Sigma prime lens, feature-packed DJI dual- channel wireless mic kit, Samyang follow focus rig and radical Sandisk SSD system to the test, to see if they are worth splashing the cash on. 74 BUYERS’ GUIDE: INDIE LENSES You don’t have to stick to lenses made by your camera manufacturer. We examine independent-brand optics, from expensive cinema primes to full autofocus zooms that can set new standards of performance. 50
