Hardware Advice

PostFri Apr 07, 2017 4:38 pm

Hello Everyone,
I am totally new to Video and hardware stuff.
For a job I need to record basketball games from different angles.
I wanna try and learn.

I want to trust continuous auto focus, so I don't want to deal with it at the beginning.
Or maybe even infinite depth of field, everything is focused all the time.

Any hardware + lens recommendations for me?
My total hardware budget is around 4000$

Thanks

BM cameras do not have continuous auto focus. That said, the Micro Studio camera is small and when used with wide angle lenses like th Panasonic Leica 15mm and Olympus 12mm lenses have a void DOF to keep the action sharp. You could set up several cameras for different angles and use the new ATEM HD is to switch cameras and a Micro Hyperdrck to record the program video from the switcher.
