https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1964095-REG/gopro_mission_1_pro_ils.html A "dumb" m43 mount on 1"? Honestly, from my perspective, it's a perfectly fine idea. If people out there don't understand why a dumb m43 mount is going onto a 1" sensor, those folks can just stick with GPro's fixed lens offerings. For those that know how to utilize the tool, it'll be fine and even a bit more than adequate -- as the people that'll use this gear/mount aren't really fretting about AF or e-iris. The big thing here, I think, is that with adapters you can put anything on there now. FF to C-mount. Hell, go back decades and buy some of the lenses camera companies were putting on their NTSC video cams, if that would work. Whatever. That said, my speculation is that they're not even that interested in this camera doing anything special sales-wise in the marketplace. Most likely this iteration of their product is a loss leader put out there for bragging rights. Basically, like, "Look, our products are a serious cinematic tool now!" "Lenses!" "Prestigious-Lens-Brand-This!" "Prestigious-Lens-Brand-That!" The real value in that sort of BS, in this era of YT marketing, is more than worthwhile. As for sensor size, the best footage I ever filmed in my life was captured on 1" sensors. So, it's hard for me to by too concerned about a small'ish sensor -- as far as that ever matters anyway. -

🤷♂️ sexy as fcuk ? But being serious, a question I have already asked myself and pondering further on… Ideally, I’d like a longer version of the photo 28-45mm f1.8, something like a 45-90mm f1.8 also with internal non-extending zoom, but no sign of that as of yet… -
It’s for a personal travel/ski film next winter in northern Finland (supplemented by a Sony rx0ii). I have several manual Nikon lens which I previously adapted to the Pocket 4k. The 85mm is a favourite. Plus all my M/ZM/VM (one of my favourites is the Voigtlander 50mm f3.5 Vintage Line Heliar). I want the Panasonic/Leica 100-400 (not sure why but it seems ridiculously fun to go to 800mm equivalent!). I’ve also ordered the 9mm f/1.7 Panasonic/Leica to replace a MFT Voigtlander 10.5 (far too heavy). A healthy mix of MF and AF. Shallow dof is certainly not a priority. Interestingly, I am finding that the “fun of using” is far more important that ultimate IQ… after all, none of this really matters! -
What are you shooting and what lenses are you contemplating? I can't recall what your other normal equipment is, but MFT opens up a Pandoras Box whole world of possibilities with adapters etc too (if you don't need AF) so that can be fun too. I've been shooting street video at night with two combos that work incredibly well.. the first is my 42.5mm F0.95 with the Sirui 1.25x anamorphic adapter on the front, making it an equivalent of 68mm F1.5 and creating beautiful rendering wide open, but the combo is 1.3kg / 46oz so I also got a Takumar 50mm F1.4 on a speed booster, which is equivalent to a 71mm F2.0, which is much more vintage but is tiny and almost a full 1kg lighter. I'm contemplating a native 35mm F0.95 or F1.4 to replace both and have a less vintage but still lightweight for travel shooting. I also rock the 14-140mm for day shooting while travelling, and in brighter places the 12-35mm F2.8 is pretty hard to beat. So many great lenses. If you don't need crazy DOF then MFT is a great option, even with the larger body sizes.
