    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?

    ntblowz got a reaction from mercer in Panasonic G85 review - is there any need to get an Olympus E-M1 Mark II for video?   
    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.

    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

    Panasonic haven't use MPJEG since GH3, I think they probably use AVC-Ultra for high bit rate?

    ntblowz got a reaction from Emanuel in DJI just slaughtered GoPro with Mavic   
    Mavic is definitely one for me, I need a compact drone for traveling around, p3 still have to use its own bag.
    For quality I got X5 on air and X5 on osmo, dont really need gimbal on gopro, hate fisheye and indoor/lowlight performance is really bad. (I had goPro4 before) X5 osmo is much better, you also get nice moving bokeh shots on osmo with 25mm 1.7 and 42.5mm 1.7 lens.

    I'm very happy with my set up but if a person was starting out from scratch with semi pro / serious indie amateur aspirations on a tight budget then I'd also suggest keeping an eye out for these products:
     
    Tascam DR70D  (only US$200 on sale I've seen it for!! :-o I've used it myself as the soundie on an indie feature film)
    Aputure D3 (announced at this year's NAB, meant to be as good as a Sennheiser MKH-416, but heaps cheaper).
    Saramonic UwMic10  (looks like the Sony! Has 2x TX to 1x RX feature).

    ntblowz reacted to HelsinkiZim in Craft Camera is coming!   
    For a laugh, i'll break down this email from a salesman's/ executive producer's point of view.
    "Greetings!
    - denotes all times of day and suggests something festive is entailed.
    Yes, we actually exist and have a voice.
    - you don't know who we are but you did at some point, but you have forgotten.

    We are incredibly grateful and humbled by all the support.
    - OK, even if you don't remember us, everyone else does. (Classic 'humblebrag').
    And because of that, we are only sharing the following email to you—our early adopter email list.
    - FYI, you are special and unique and part of a private club who got in first. Aren't you lucky?

    We have looked forward to sending this email for months. You should know that we will not publish this anywhere else. That means you are the first to know.
    - you owe us your attention because we have invested a lot of time on this product exclusively for your benefit, and you have such a unique opportunity here because we haven't told the world about it yet because you are our favorite person. When we tell everyone, we can't make any promises on your VIP status.
    I bet many of you have wondered, “What’s the deal with Craft?" There has been an outpouring of interest for Craft from all over the world and from all walks of life—from Hollywood, indies, corporate marketing departments, agencies, and amateurs. They have reached out by the thousands trying to figure out what we are working on.
    - (more humblebrag) My lord, have you been missing out!
    For over a year, we have been developing the Craft Camera—a new system that we believe will help users tell better stories.
    - we have developed a system to make you a creative genius, you are a craftsman and we are called Craft, geddit?
    On April 18th around 12pm EST, we will announce Craft Camera on craftcamera.com. This announcement will include initial information, a first glimpse of the Craft Camera, and we will start taking initial reservations.
    - Sshhh, listen, here are some hard facts. We are committing to a time and place for one time only. We will blow you away with a few seconds of footage and allow you to give us your credit card details, BUT only if you are on time and in the right place.
    Since Craft Camera is still in development, we won’t be releasing every single detail because we hope to get feedback from reservation holders before we publish final details.
    - in case you aren't impressed, don't worry, you haven't been given all the information and glimpses yet, be patient and get in line anyways. We will figure this spec stuff out eventually once we receive enough complaints to warrant changes.
    A reservation will require a $500 deposit, your name, email, and phone number. Reservations will only be available on craftcamea.com and will be 100% refundable. Your deposit will be deducted from the total price once you place an order at a later date.
    - (classic close) Absolutely no risk involved. But wait there's more...

    As a reservation holder, you will also receive a 10% discount off your final order along with some additional perks like first looks, priority reservations on future products and a few other surprises.
    - (classic time sensitive bonuses)
    Please note we are offering a limited number of reservations which is why we wanted you to know about this first. This means when we hit our limit we will stop taking reservations. No exceptions. The reservations are first come first serve and when the cameras ship, we will do so in the order that the reservation was placed. 
    - remember, this deal is exclusive to you and time sensitive. This is urgent!
    The Craft Camera comes in 2 models. There are 4K and HD models with a price range between $699 and $2899 depending on the configuration. Initial units will ship late 2016.
    - (actual information, vague, but actual information). Comforting because facts make you feel good, right? But not to many or you will commit from informed deliberation rather than impulse, which is not cool for us.
    I will leave you with this—we believe there is a huge need for Craft Camera. We believe it is a revolutionary product that will give production alums a great tool to do things they couldn’t do before while opening up storytelling through motion pictures to a whole new generation.
    - (rehash of making you a creative genius theme) You will have an advantage amongst your peers. You will be Spielberg, or maybe Jim Jarmusch... at the very least.
    With that said, we understand Craft Camera might not be for you and...we are fine with that! We will still treat you with respect and we hope the same from you.
    - seriously, no pressure.
    I am truly humbled by all the support, and I hope you become a part of the Craft family.
    - (humblebrag,) we have heritage and will be around forever.
    Keep telling beautiful stories.
    - we are on your side, you artist you *pinches cheek*. Monies? What's that?

    - Mr. S. Humble...

    Founder of Craft Digital Systems Inc. "
    - the absolute boss and the ducks nuts.
     
    That was fun (for me). Having sold stuff from Kirby vacuum cleaners to tvc airtime, its a trip down memory lane. I wouldn't touch this kit with a ten foot pole. A bit too sleazy for me.
    If it's a young company then I would ditch the bullet-benefit-close-bonus approach and just talk about the things you are trying to solve for your target demographic. Visuals, ergonomics, mobility, compatibility... etc. (even if its just your intentions, with no hard specs to announce)
