[Frameworks] Seeking Camera Recommendation

[Jeff Kreines @ Kinetta]

If you don't need a camera with good ergonomics for hand-holding , the Sony FS100 is worth a look. Amazing in low light, and you can use almost any lens that will cover the 35mm cine sized sensor. Lenses make a big difference so not being stuck with just one is useful. It has a 4k sensor which make a big difference. 

But the camera's design is closer to a Hasselblad. The newer Sony F5 solves that but costs 4x more.

I don't make films/documentaries that are 'traditional' in their style, ie: talking head, onscreen interviews, industrial, etc. My primary desire is for a camera in which the strongest qualities are the basics; lens, sensor, build quality. While I might shoot the occasional interview for hire on the side, I'm looking for exceptional image in a camera that's light enough to toss in a wearable camera bag or carry on a plane, and sturdy enough to take a bit of punishment. In short, I'm looking for an advanced pro-sumer camera. Let the suggestions commence!
