I'm a beginner videographer shooting automotive videos. I've seen awesome car-related videos using the FS700 and thought of renting out the FS700 for the first time. I only have experience using Sony a7s.

Will be confusing for me to learn the camera within a day? I thought of using it for the dynamic range, and super slow motion feature. Will be using it for static and motion shot.

What is the most important thing to know before renting the camera?


These are some of my works:

better learn how to set up the camera. then learn how to set it up for slow motion recording (S&Q mode). most importantly, at such high speed recording, stuff is going to flicker, and flicker hard. read up on how to make your shots flicker-free and find a way to work around it on set, rather than in post.

and always, always TEST the camera before your shoot.

Always do a camera test a day or 2 before the shoot itself to familiarize yourself with a new camera, ESPECIALLY if it's for paid work. You don't want to turn up on set with the client seeing that you don't know how to work the camera.
