I used to feel that way and then I just re-bought an OG Zacuto Z-Finder (had one back in the day for my 5D MKIII and 1DC). So now when I absolutely need an EVF for my Canon R6V (usually when I got issues with sunlight outdoors) I just screw it on and I'm good to go. Sure it's an extra piece of kit in my bag but not a big deal, imo. All that said, I agree that in an era where the cam as a priority tool for video capture is losing ground to all kinds of other tech developments - I think Sigma should have thrown every reasonable feature at this thing... which they didn't... but hey, I guess we'll see if that gamble pays off for them. -

I want to love sigma but there's always a deal breaker. That huge evf on the side is a no-go for me. If they make a compact evf so that the thing can actually fit in a small travel bag, I'd get one. it has everything else I would want, on paper anyway. Once you add the evf, the size isn't an advantage anymore, and total price is nearly identical to the S1ii, so unless you really need a few hundred grams shaved off, it's hard to pick sigma. -
Because I am a contrary bastard? 🤷♂️ But feet back on the ground, you are correct and that lack of IBIS and L Mount having precisely zero wide-medium zooms with OIS, is a deal-breaker. I looked up the e-stab and the gyro data option and neither interest me. I was considering sticking one on a monopod which I use increasingly and will be picking one up with a clutch for next year and will still be getting one of the latter, but having calmed down now and recognised that Sigma have indeed failed me in the camera department for the third time with their FP line, yeah but no. Love the concept, size, build, brand and now rear tilt LCD, but the reality is that despite hating the spasticky rear dial, buttons and general build of the S9, the LUMIX is a better camera for my needs. Really what I am looking for would be the spec of the S1ii or preferably the S1Rii in a cine style body. Love their glass and I am all in on that, but another body fail for me. At least this time it was by only one single element instead of several, but the lack of IBIS kills it for me. -
Sigma could have released this camera with the updated screen, a slightly larger body to accommodate CF Express for internal 4K raw, added IBIS, and literally changed nothing else and it would have been a good update. Instead they give us ProRes Raw and it isn't clear if it's internal or to SSD only and then gave us a full hdmi?! Why do we need a full hdmi if they're giving us internal, or usb ssd, ProRes Raw?! They could have omitted any HDMI and gave us a CFX slot. You can save $800 and buy the Z5iiC and have internal n-raw to sd card, af and ibis. -
I did something wrong when trying to quote you... either way DGO sensor makes a little more sense with those ISO numbers. My GH6 has one... I don't like it on that camera, but I assume the full frame versions are better. In 2019, I was the perfect customer for the OGFP... this one... no thanks. Maybe at $1500 but for the same price as the ZR?! No thanks. Of course, I'm thinking about making a camcorder my next camera purchase, so what do I know.
