Sorry to hear you just wasted your money! Send it back and wait for the NX500. The earlier NX models were total trash for video... abject trash. GH2 is MILES better!

My solutions all have growth potential, especially the apps. By the way 5G will be 65,000x faster than 4G when in launches in 2020 according to latest science lab news. This means both WiFi, bluetooth and all land based DSL lines will be going away. It helps to look forward...

There is one coming. that's all I can say!!!!

Yes. It's quite interesting vs the NX1 given yet another price gulf. Shootout is shot but not yet edited.

Eventually once the camera is set up, I find the menus less of a problem but you still have to wonder how the heck it left the factory like that. And I don't think I'll ever be able to use the left panel blind and instinctively, I'm always looking at it to search for a button. With the 1D C or GH4 I have an instinct and can feel where the button is without having to look down at the damned thing and tilt it to one side. The EX1 user might be happier with it but the camcorder ergonomics were never ever much cop and won't cut it in the world of cinema and Arri.

  Ferrari have a DNA. Cinema cameras have a DNA. You have to go back decades to see it evolve into the force it is today. For Ferrari it is the very specific engine sound and the looks. Arri are that spirit to cinema cameras. The DNA of the Sony FS7 is a compromise. Half EX1 and half cinema camera, the ergonomics of the buttons, dials and menus need a complete overhaul in my opinion. So Sony haven’t got it all right yet but what they have done is put a Ferrari engine inside. The FS7 for £5199+VAT is an absolute bargain, with an ‘engine’ almost on par with a £18,000 F55 (though without global shutter). It’s a much more capable camera than the Canon C300 or Panasonic GH4.

​Haha

$30,000 to $40,000 the final price. Nice concept, and about time!

What app are you using to convert to ProRes?

​Indeed, there's not much like it for the price.

Thanks Gregor!

I also think the problem is with the Speed Booster. The shims aren't accurate enough in Metabone's PL adapters either.

Why on earth would they put an organic sensor in this, when they have a perfectly good Super 35mm sensor to trickle down from the Varicam S35!? Guys! This rumour makes no sense!! No sense at all! Not even any sensor!!

Wow talk about plucking specs out of thin air with the minimal of education when it comes to guessing. 18MP on a Micro Four Thirds sensor yet clean at ISO 12,800.... riiight.

​Yes, clear advantage to shooting 4K for delivering 1080p. Shooting 1080p in 2015 is a bit like shooting standard definition 720 x 480p in 2008.

The D5300 is a little cleaner in low light and in the shadows when dialled down flat. Any reason you're not considering D750? Price?

Nikon D5500 might be worth a look in the meantime if you don't need 4k. Or even very good 1080p

I tried external recording with the nx1 and shogun briefly, need to do more shooting with it. The quality was similar to H.265, that it is to say very good. However you can edit it straight off the card without transcoding.

Good suggestion. Should be doable. Keep them coming!

Yes "video" is characterised as a very different look in my book of terminology

Nope. Video and digital film are two very different things.

Yes. Even charges off a USB battery designed for topping up smartphones.

That's raw for you

  The KineMAX 6K cinema camera is nearing a release and I might have my hands on a prototype soon here in Berlin (I happen to be down the road from my friends at HDVideoShop who are the official European dealer). This is a significantly higher spec cinema camera on paper than anything else under the price of a Red Dragon for now. Kinefinity have just released the first 6K footage from the camera and even some original material direct from the SSD card is available, for grading trials.
