I prefer dogs and land mines.

So, I haven't had any issues with SanDisk Extreme V30 A2 cards. In fact, it's the one they recommend and sell with the ILS. I have noticed that I need to erase the card anytime I want to upgrade the Labs firmware with Mac OS, due to the DSstore hidden files.

You don't like security cameras? No need to be insecure...

Yeah we've taken a lot of time to create a film look that gave good color, but also just kind of works. When using footage in a doc from a lot of different cameras, archive stuff etc. a lot of film looks can break easily. We also wanted something that while invoking film, was also not too strong. Below are some side by sides, the images on the left are the look we developed, and the versions on the right are a standard CST:

Well nothing was announced this week but it’s looking most likely like a Sigma FP2. Meanwhile LUMIX is supposed to be revealing at least 2 new bodies in November to mark their 25th birthday or something… Please let this not be some letdown like a security camera or some other crap but something ‘we’ might be interested in… Too soon for a GH8 so maybe some small compact L10-like MILC? Maybe the long overdue S1H2, or some ‘cine’ version of the S1ii?

Hi, I'm the author of the "Sanity" patch for the GH2. I just uploaded the last version to my Google drive, if anybody is interested in using it. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/157bZ_DRA0FzA-7QUWG3lXwQmfoTEtXQl?usp=sharing Here's a little background on why I developed it. When Vitaliy unlocked the GH2, there was a gold rush to create patches with very high bitrates. While the image quality looked great, those patches were terribly inefficient. I took it upon myself to create a patch that had the same top image quality, but at more "sane" bitrates. I can say with confidence that I succeeded, because I pixel peeped and compared the image frame by frame to the uncompressed output from the HDMI port. This way I had an absolute reference to shoot for. That was a long time ago, and I have long since sold my GH2. If anybody actually uses "Sanity", I would love to hear about it, just for old time sake!

I have the Sanity hacks (not 100% sure), Apocalypse Now (Drewnet), Cluster X (Drewnet), and Cluster X (Moon). I wish I took better notes. Why are personal view forums down? That's a good site.

I'll have a dig and host them here if I find the mother lode

Here in EU, LPE19 is 169€ and 2xLPE6NH is 190€. R3 comes with a dual charger and I'd rather charge 2 batteries than 4. R3 is lighter than R5C + grip, has IBIS.. and overall more solid/pro feel. Here's a video from a dude that switched from R5C to R3 and I'm inclined to agree with most of his points although in the end its kind of a toss up:
