Here in NZ you can buy used A7S for NZD$1400 2nd hand, there was a few a7s sold for $1500, dunno why but A7II still hold value steady while a7s took a tumble

Seems like it will be for surveillance and automotive industry first, not sure when will it implant to their camera

The 2nd one shot with ISO6400 in the beginning, that much better than GH4!
-
its easier with small size sensor than big ones, definitely want a phone with that capability
-
Just get the A7SII, buy the camera you need not you want :p

The a6500 has Touch phase detection af, so no reason to doubt that the a7siii will have it.
A7RII have PDAF and A7SII doesn't have it, A6500 have but not RX100 V, so yeah i doubt it, Sony have their own way of differentiate product line
My A5100 have touch screen phase detection af and it has been out for how long now?

No that is why I said A7S3, not the 2. The future model will most probably have a good DPAF. Must be..
dont think so, even FS7II doesn't have hybrid AF and that thing cost a lot more
Maybe the A9 will have it all!

Yep. As you point the AF is the problem on the pana. For this reason I will get the A7S3, which will be close in spec with GH5 but with:
way better low light
way better AF (I expect A6500 level)
swallow DoF when needed
better DR
I think u mean A7RIII lol A7S is CDAF only
-
Lowlight is not much better on A6500, I got both G7 and A6300 and their lowlight is not bad but cant hold candle to A7RII or A7S/A7SII, FHD on A6300 is soft which is a problem when I paired with camera which are sharp (ie fs5/a7sii/c100 mkii etc)
over the past years I got 2~3 cards fail (all using sandisk extreme card btw) so I definitely prefer dual cards for safety,

On the Sony site it states it is more optimal with a native lens that has OSS... just as Dual IS works better with Panasonic.
True, but then again IS on the A7 seems weak to me, not sure about A6500 Olympus is definitely the most stable now that I got e-m5 ii to play with.

meant your link is for the A7ii.
It should be the same regardless, only 5 Axis with Sony lens, well that my experience with A7SII A7RII, less stable using adapted Canon lens than Sony native

That's for the a7ii. The a6500 has 5-Axis IBIS.
A7II is 5 Axis IBIS
-

No X/Y Compensation with 3rd party and selective A mount lens, leaving only 3 axis
-
Sony only uses 3 Axis IS when using non natives, vs full 5 axis when using non native on M43 body.
You can do walks with just handheld, ninja walk, trained arm and warp stabilizer works wonders, not as good as gimbal (especially for long distance) but close enough

The fact is, noone knows for sure! I wouldn't bet on Pana sensor though..It seems like Sony is the exclusive m4/3 sensor maker, for a few years now. I am expecting for someone with the answer, it will explain a lot, and show the capability of these companies diferentiate from Sony, and compete against it
A a7000 in September with better ergonomics, battery life, AF system, 10bit internal, better IBIS, 180fps slow mo, no overheating (with the bigger body for better ergonomics, and bigger battery for more minutes of use, they can manage heat better), and around 2299$, can destroy any m4/3 camera of the near future, and Sony must be building such a camera right now, and since a6300, for sure.
Pretty sure it will be called FS5 II and cost $5000+

My friend is selling his XC10 right now and try to get A7SII instead, he used to have A7S but sold that to get XC10 because of the "image quality" touted by online forum and easier match to his C100, turns out quality is crap to his C100, he really dont want to deal with Sony colour I guess he have no choice lol

Hoodlum - do those scores make the Olympus preferable to the Lumix for video?
Since they use same sensor tech, we can expect GH5 to be similar score, like GX8 got 75 and Pen-F got 74, they both use same sensor, I guess this 20MP is indeed different than the previous one
-
Horses for courses
For the stuff I do gh5 is more suited, live events (like conference) that goes for hours, music video with proper lighting (use 3x arri 650 usually), I don't really need low light much except for occasional astro photography
My FS5's lowlight is not as good as my A7S/A7RII but it is my mostly used camera, ergonomic on that is much nicer.
I will get 2x anamorphic adapter when I got my gh5, should be interesting to play with.
-
is 180fps unlimited time like gh4?
-
Whats wrong with A6500 for stills if you considering D5500, pretty sure their DR is similar?

Thank you very much @Neumann Films Luke for letting us download the files
Since I shoot a lot handheld with old lenses I'm very interested about the stabilization: I saw M. Uematsu's interview and he said (at 05:18") that 5 axis stabilization only works with Panasonic lenses.
Is that true or does it works also with manual lenses? I mean there is at least 3 axis stabilization with third part lenses?
Yes it will have 5 axis even with old glass (unlike Sony u only get 3 axis with manual lens), just if u use compatible Panasonic lens it will get Dual IS 2 which is even more stable

M43 is not going down at all, I heard this years after years and yet M43 is still dominate sales in Japan while Sony with its glorious A7 series is losing sale to crappy EOS M, same for P&S market , as some Chinese companies have joined M43 this still have plenty of life ahead, open standard is the way to go! (look at smartphones, Chinese brands are catching up, while Japanese phone is irrelevant now, not long ago they were considered super advance), look at drone market, currently only M43 is available as integrated drone system.. look at action cam, only M43 have presence, which are all made by Chinese companies.
I still see many Oly user upgrading to e-m1mkii rather than to other systems... so royalty is still there, financial report from Oly and Pana is very healthy unlike Nikon
