    • Happening mid season, so right now… I sent my S9 in for repair (audio side of things not working) and yesterday, finally received a repair quote…which is not only more than the trade in value, but more than buying an ‘as new’ one from MPB! Nope! Instead, I have requested a return and will make it a dedicated gimbal camera where not having audio is not an issue. Which still leaves me a camera short… I have been juggling what I have with the L10 picking up the slack and managed the situation for the last 5 jobs, but it’s not ideal as the S1RII’s definitely DO overheat and shutdown on hotter days at around 15 minutes max. Step forward a used S1IIE which has all the tech (but upgraded) from the trusty reliable S5II but in the much better (mainly rear LCD) body of the S1RII/S1II. It doesn’t have quite the ability of the S1II, but for my needs, that’s fine and the reliability is more important to me. So the re-jigged line up now is: Pair of S1RII’s for hybrid, but pretty much 95% stills, with the 18/35/50/85 f1.8 primes. S1IIE primary video unit with the Sigma 17-40 f1.8 S5II static video unit with Sigma 28-70 f2.8 S9 with Sigma 17-50 f2.8 + gimbal as err, dedicated gimbal unit L10 candid, closeups (has excellent macro function), details, plus doubles as my personal EDC/DadCam. Should be able to function properly for the second half of my season…
    • Congrats bro, any channel that is not trying to sell me some new piece of Chinese crap gets a pre-approved follow. As others have said, the background music is too loud. Try to lower it by 6db so your voice stands out. There's also a clear hum that's only visible when you speak. Could be your mic cable touching metal. Other than that it's a great start!  If it's any use there's  a huge appetite for retro-reviews right now. We are swamped with fantastic video and camera offerings from the DSLR and early MILC eras that probably solve 99% of every pro-user's needs. Same for lenses and sound gear that go for very attractive prices instead of the new gear retail.  
    • Let's hope they updated it more than they updated the ZV-1 Mark II over the ZV-1 (or for that matter, the RX 100 V).  From what I remember, that "upgrade" was really just giving the new model a wider-angle zoom lens closer to the focal lengths on an iPhone and reducing some other specs (like getting read of the burst video modes). My guess?  At most a small incremental update over existing RX10 bodies.  Any substantial upgrade would see Sony risking letting their point and shoot camera have superior specs, if even on paper, to their prosumer gear.  6K?  240fps 4K?  Higher dynamic range from a newer sensor?  My guess without looking at rumor sites?  It'll have a somewhat updated 1" sensor and add USB-C to replace the micro usb port on the existing RX 100 IV (unless they already released an updated version with better USB?).  Maximum 4K recording will go from 30 to 60fps.  Full HD from 120 to 240fps.  Memory stick + SD card will be replaced with CF Express A + SD Card.  SD might get faster with the second row of pins that's on newer SD cards.  Still images will go from about 20 megapixels to 24-26 megapixels.  Video crop will go from 1.09x to 1x and open gate in either 4:3 or 3:2, whatever the sensor dimensions are, will be an option.
    • Had the OG…or was it the II back in the day and quite liked it as I’m quite partial to a fixed zoom camera. Changed it for a camcorder with the same sensor in the end but that was about 117 cameras ago or something…
    • Well it’s been a while but, as they say in their trailer for the launch, the wait for a refreshed RX10 is almost over. A lot has changed in the nine years since the last version so it should have a significant bump in features but, equally, it will likely get a significant bump in price (from an already pricey base point) that we’ve seen everywhere else in that intervening period. It certainly has the potential to be more than enough camera for more than enough people otherwise they wouldn’t bother bringing a new version out but equally it could also just be a grab for them. The internal ND of the Panasonic FZ2000/2500 gave it the edge for me over the RX10 so that’s one area where Sony might have come back at it but, then again, Panasonic show little sign of refreshing the FZ2000/2500 so there may be no need. All in all it might be something interesting or a head scratcher.
