The major downside for R6 is limited 4k recording time due to overheating, if you shoot mostly full HD and occasional 4k then it should be ok

And can't store custom movie set to those C1-3 preset is a bit inconvenient

I won't, this is not a mass market product.

so does panasonic cm1, red hydrogen..

I wish I put extra 0 for the share.. can definitely buy Sony A1 by now if I did.

Filmmaking is not (nor should) be a show off from (any) gear specs to us salivate over anything in the path of the show. It's just another one, a new camera won't bring you more skills to your craft (E :- )

Filmmaking is time and how skilful you're able to manage it. Other than that, amateurism in any of both senses.

Of course everyone say that, but unfortunately that wont drive much traffic nowadays, open box photos get more likes than actual photos shot with said gear.

I agree only on a half with you, the other half Canon should be ashamed per se crippling their clientele basis on full access to the whole potenciality of R5/R6 technology : )

I had planned to buy a single or even a couple of them and I did not yet.

Me and many others I am aware of...

And I am not buying their high-end either so all the power to put them on shame :- )

Yeah all you do is planning and researching, haven't see you post anything about the stuff you buying or using, it's mostly stuff from YouTube.

This year I m definitely geared more to livestreaming so will get some gears toward it.  (I tried the atem mini and l1 switcher, might tempted for the iso) , tried mars 400s and 300 pro and might get 400 pro cause you can use usb-c to ethernet input so max 5 camera!

I guess that is really really reaching the new bar for how much they can charge for cellphone.

Though the ability to use micro hdmi as monitor/livestreaming is really nice but there is yolobox which is similar for less than half the price and have way more input.

Just seems like Sony is really going for your wallet.

WOW This will put Canon on shame and on move for sure...

At twice the price over R5 I don't see there is shame in that, now its Canon's turn with the so called global shutter and qpaf.

Did a shoot with my friend yesterday, he was using sigma 24mm with s5 and mars 300 for livestreaming on good old steadicam.

Definitely miss the look of steadicam, but I suck on balancing it so no go for me..

The new update will be coming next month... to counter the new Sony release?

Thinking of getting yolobox for solo livestreaming and as external monitor, and maybe C50 for a complete package once it is announced depend on spec n price.

Has anyone who had m1 got out of memory error?

The WW84 is such a let down vs the 1st one, i definitely found it not as enjoyable as the first one.

I had a play with a friends Canon R6 with the new Canon Rf 35mm 1.8 and was really surprised by how noisy it was when focusing on auto -  I would have thought if it was  designed for video this would be high up the list of design requests. Is what I found with Canon is that for all their great auto focus, the only lenses that didn't make horrible motor noise in AF were the really slow ef-s STM zooms. The Fuji and Sony cameras I've used have some nice fast silent AF lenses, are there any fast ones with Canon I don't know about

On movide mode the noise is much quieter, RF 35mm 1.8 should really have AF limiter like the 85mm do, it is quite annoying to jump to macro mode while shooting.

I m pretty happy with my new Ryzen build, editing 8k and 4k60p h.265 in real time with no proxy in Premiere. Way faster than i7-9700K we had at work lol, that machine can't even playback h.265 4k60p smoothly. My old PC is 8 years old, editing some heavy FHD can be a real struggle.

Though I might change my 3080 to 3080ti 20gb once it is released as I am already seen 10gb get used up quite often on some other stuff.

LOL! That 3950x processor costs as much as a Mac Mini. FCP speeds crush Premiere. IMO, the M1 macs are a complete bargain for the performance. As someone that doesn't care about games or 8k its a dream machine - its small, fast, quiet and uses a fraction of the power compared to that hideous tower in the thumbnail.

Yeah why spend money upgrading cameras when phone is doing the jobs for a fraction of the cost 🤔 🙄  and you can edit on it too, why bother get a computer at all 😆

Hey all - I've been using the R5 extensively on a variety of shoots the past couple of months and have absolutely loved it. The AF is spot-on, the HQ 4k modes are gorgeous, the user experience is amazing, the 120fps is the best I've used outside of the C300 III.

So far, I have had zero overheating issues. The timer in 4k HQ has gone down from 25-minutes to 20-minutes a couple of times, but have never had any issues. 

Just released last night is a music video I directed, shot, and edited. Outside of some tripod shots, I'd say 90% of the shoot was shot on the R5. Youtube compression sucks so there seems to be some artifacts, but they aren't present in the 4k ProRes export.

Enjoy!

 

Pretty nice!  I haven't got overheating warning on me yet.

That exactly mimic my experience, 8K runs smooth on high end Ryzen (if you got 12 or more cores), at least i can do jobs now without pulling my hair out or wait 2 years later.

C70 just got netflix approved

The problem with only adding cores is that they are only useful if your software could use all of them.

Massive parallelism is very difficult to obtain.

Yeah that totally depend on the app, some of the app I use tend to grab all the cores it want (Unreal engine, Blender etc), Adobe software on the other hand is half arsed..  but with 8k and 4k h.265 having massive CPU raw power helps with unoptimized code.

For gaming my old i7-4770K is still quite relevant lol

I might have missed it, but he did not state what codec these video files were right? If it was prores or RAW or  any other decent codec it doesnt really matter, I can edit fluently 4K with playback on all my hardware. But what about H265 422 files is the ryzen still faster?

Those are the same h.265 4k60p videos they used on previous video, where the 10 core intel mac just poop when try to play back but both ryzen n m1 playback smoothly.

Ryzen is still faster from max's new video

Wonder will M1X with higher TDP will unleash more power?

Still on PC side, try your luck with a much power AMD: here (from same source BTW). I'd say 16GB VRAM eGPU is not to neglect willing to use Resolve.

 

 

That pc he build a month ago is gonna be 20~100% slower when this build is done (waiting for PC case atm) 😁, can't believe a month can make huge difference.

I would thought the 24-105 will be better? 70mm is a bit short for me.
