The Camera Store TV tested a beta firmware I think so it could change.

I'm curious to see the high ISO of the Nikon but I very much doubt either one of these cameras "slaughters" the other. Unless it's video and then the 1D X II definitely slaughters the Nikon

Neither way is wrong just do what you feel most comfortable with. It's nice to have a feel for the colours and contrast of the scene with a standard profile but I rarely switch to one if I am shooting S-LOG. And by the way the View Assist of the A6300 and A7S II solves all this by giving you standard colour and contrast whilst S-LOG is enabled.

So to recap on the all important crops... 24p = no crop Super 35mm 4K (1.5x crop vs full frame) 30p = 2.3x crop 4K 120p = 2.3x crop 1080p Looks like the Samsung NX1 has an ace card here. But I am sure the A6300 will have the dynamic range advantage... and proper LOG profile.

I don't think the G7 has a 4K HDMI output. I have one, will try it with my Oddyssey 7Q+

Panasonic are forever playing catch up on specs as they can't compete on a level playing field with the smaller sensor. GH5 should start the transition to Super 35mm. Otherwise it will have to be seriously impressive to lure us away from Sony (raw, ProRes, 10bit, 120fps 4K) or to maintain any kind of uniqueness.

It's getting even harder to hang on to a camera for longer than 5 seconds before something else comes out
-
You make a good point, it should have a direct AF point joystick and a touch screen. Also hope the rolling shutter doesn't kill it. 20MP is a lot of lines to roll out.
-
Sony quote 13-15 stops for all their recent cameras so that's nothing new. I would expect it to perform similarly to the A7R II in its Super 35mm crop mode. What I like about the A6300 is more the promising new AF tracking system and the amount it packs in for a price. New low(ish) budget king!
-
This is going to be such a popular camera. A real bargain for $1000, you're getting the image of an FS5 with better AF system, better EVF and 4x cheaper in a MUCH smaller body. Shame no IBIS but it is only one third of the price of the A7R II! Samsung NX1 only other APS-C camera to do 4K from 6K readout.

I think the crop should be calculated diagonally not just on the horizontal res. To be honest I am 1.4321 from not giving a crap. Eno why don't you go and make a XXXXXXXXing film. Haha. I hope he enjoys his 0.421x share of Nikon as much as his crop factor calculations. Eno, you can bullshit and bluff your way out of it all you like - the upshot is I will just dislike you even more as it shows you can't put your hand up and admit you made a mistake. You haven't used either camera, either.

4K at 60fps is a lot of data. 5K at 24p is less than half of that.

Below, full picture is 1D X Mark II at 20MP Largest white box is entire frame of 1D C at 18MP Smallest white box is DCI 4K. It's a shame the still can't do a full pixel readout at 5.5K or 6.5K like Samsung have been able to do on the NX1. I am sure the 1D X Mark II sensor could do 5.5K if they let it! Yeah it's crazy and I really dislike this kind of 'marketing'. They may have lost a few sales here. Very hard to go back to standard picture profiles after you have spent so much time and effort on your own looks / LUTs. Canon need to re-consider this... What exactly would they cannibalise by adding just one Cinema EOS feature to their non Cinema EOS camera!? And it isn't as if the 1D X Mark II is exactly cheap.
-
So just a recap on the crops... The 4K is APS-H crop, no full frame and the 1080p is pixel binned full frame. I heard some criticism that it shoots 4096 x 2160 instead of the more usual Ultra HD. Can only laugh at that. So trivial to place DCI 4K on a 3840 x 2160 timeline in any NLE.

There was one that flashed off too quickly before I had finished reading it... Only one though, early on.
