​Will give you a clue... none. Because the camcorder market is dead. And the rest will use their smartphones or existing Canikons. The LX100 has a better chance on the streets. It's small and I still remember the days when all the tourists will using TZ3s and LX2s. Still room for a high end compact. The XC10 isn't compact.

Yes it is, although most people know the drill on that by now right? Here's the first part http://www.eoshd.com/2014/11/shooting-4k-pocket-camera-exceptional-panasonic-lx100/ I still love it. The best small camera by a mile.

The Sony RX10 – $999. OLED EVF. Check. Raw stills, check. F2.8 (constant) Zeiss zoom. Check. The Canon XC10 – $2500 – none of the above. Here’s why… Read the full article

​H.265 drag and drop into Edit Ready, you're done. ProRes / H.264 for your editing software. Stills are very good, 13 stop dynamic range and as good in low light as the D7200.

Calculate the predicted rental charges on 3 years of FS7 or C300 Mark II shooting then deduct it from the predicted depreciation value of the cameras in that same time period. I predict the C300 II would lose $6000, the FS7 $4000. If the rental costs exceed that in 3 years then it makes more sense to buy them. Not to mention, buying allows them to be used for your own personal creative work! Lenses hold their value well. A7S a good choice too. But in his situation I'd probably get the FS7, a Mac Pro, a 4K display & spend the rest on Canon lenses and LED lights.

Haven't got a 60D but expect it is much better image on the 70D. The 60D has a 20Mb/s SD card bottleneck. The 70D's SD card controller is doubly fast at 40Mb/s... and I find very reliable too. Doesn't seem as on the edge as 1080p raw on the 5D. I expect low light to be a bit better on the 70D too as it's a newer sensor, but not by much.

I love Dual Pixel CMOS AF... a real shot grabber

  The AF is wonderful. Image isn't far off C100 Mark II at ISO 400 either, but raw baby!

How'd you come to that conclusion?

I don't see the point in the NX500. OK if you want to save money, it's fine. A review? Bit pointless. You know the drill. It's the NX1's sensor and codec with a crop and no top bitrate setting, minus some other features as well.

The convenience of Dual Pixel CMOS AF is now coming to raw video, with Magic Lantern now available for all 70D owners. Read the full article

Better to spend an extra 800 than waste 800 completely!

Perhaps, but only in the sense that they are all pretty rubbish. Get a NX1.

  (Bonus feature - watch the above video to the end for a shootout between the EOS M3, Sony A6000, Panasonic LX100 and GH2) The EOS M3 features Canon's new flagship 24MP APS-C (Super 35mm) sensor, the flag bearer for future Canon APS-C DSLRs such as the 760D. Now released in Europe and Asia but not in the US, does the M3 rage against the dying of the light or go quietly into the night? More footage and tests Read the full review

​That's an OCT 18 mounted on an after-market metal rig. It still doesn't need conversion. You get a working one and adapter from Ciecio7!

Did the article say it was better than the Alexa? Nope. Merely more vertical resolution. I'd say that's quite an achievement for a $1500 camera though and definitely headline worthy. World would be a boring place if we wrote like you kodakmoment.

​No one. It's an OCT 19

You can't record internally at same time as outputting 10bit over HDMI regardless of whether in anamorphic mode or not on the GH4.

Panasonic will release the new anamorphic firmware for the GH4 on Wednesday, April 22nd. With this update the Panasonic GH4 will have more vertical resolution than the Arri Alexa Studio for anamorphic. Read the full article

​Yeah why are all the new anamorphic lenses inferior to what consumers had in the 70's? What's going on there? The Iscorama wasn't cheap when it came out, but it was accessible for enthusiasts, small and sharp.

​What a moronic comment. What's the alternative - spend $10,000 replacing my Canon EF glass with Sony E-Mount, with most of them inferior or not even existing!?

​I don't agree, surprise. I've always said it's both. Take musicians. The moment you press a key on a piano it's about feel, mood, the sound. The melody is just one part of it. Similarly in filmmaking, you press that key - the camera - it has a certain feel, mood, the image. The story is just one part of it. It's important for a musician to evoke an interesting sound and mood. My friend recently bought a really old pipe organ from a flea market. You can't get that feel or mood or way of playing, with a M-Audio USB keyboard. Same goes for cameras and lenses... choose carefully.

Pushing on the edges isn't part of my everyday usage of the screen See what you mean though. But LG + Philips along with Samsung are THE leader when it comes to the panels.

​Eizo = rip off. The build of the consumer LGs is indeed flakey, or appears so on the surface. This one is different. The 4K DCI build is miles better. MILES.

SmallHD do nice stuff. Check out the DP4 for small and cheap. I was deeply impressed with the new Sidefinder though - and that without the finder is thin and small too, but really high quality screen. Zacuto EVF is small but pokey-small as a monitor. I don't love it.
