Lol on the name
The issue for the Sony FS5 is the base ISO which is 3200 when shooting Slog2/3 - the (electronic) ND filter reduces the sensor sensitivity to reduce the signal. The lenses stop down to f22 (or T22) so that is not a problem, but it increases DOF, so we use a bigger apperture to control DOF and adjust exposure using the ND filter - the FS5 was the first cine camera to provide infinitely variable ND between 1/4 and 1/128 as well as having 3 user presets.
Interesting …I hadn’t experienced burnout on any videos in the past but have done very little. So I was a bit surprised that the article I read said it was a issue (something to due with the relatively slow shutter speed compared to a still camera range) but maybe I got the wrong end of the stick?
