Never thought 12-35mm would look this filmic!

VLog L converted with Cineon LOG to Linear LUT. A mixture of 4K 24p and HD 96fps.
Things I'm loving about VLogL: Dynamic Range, and Color
Things that aren't so great: Banding, and noise.
I'm hoping that using an external recorder at 10 bit 4:2:2 will help with the latter.

Putting together an edit of V Log clips from downtown Chicago. Here are some stills till I can finish. I tried finding scenes with extreme DR (alot of shadows, and sunlight).
 

Hi guys, it's not a hack at all. I would rather call it a bug than a hack.. it's actually really simple. I was gonna order it from the japan amazon yesterday and $99 is really not bad. I don't want to say too much in case getting into legal issues, but I'll just give you guys a hint: try to connect your camera to your Panasonic app on a smartphone.  
yes! Hugo loves bottle caps! Try to visit him on his instagram page: hugobritbull.  

I was wandering around a Chinese filmmaking forum and someone said that he found a bug in the firmware 2.3 and unlocked V-log L for free.
So I came back home and tried. It really worked. Just did a test shot with Hugo in the sofa and loaded it in resolve with the Vlog lut and did a little adjustment. Here are the before and after frames.

Take that Panasonic!
I just wondering how would flat profile grade on the E-M5 II

2.3 kg compared to FS5 827.8 g......not including lens....no matter how good the image is, it is simply too heavy for events and run & gun documentary kinds of shoots....There are many critics when C100 first came out. Many people complain about the lousy specs but I see the potential of this cam for weddings, events and non high level commercial shoots, thus I bought it and simply love it. It simply works with excellent ergonomic and I've been using it for 3 years and never regret buying it. I've gotten myself a A7s and although the image is much much sharper and detailed compared to c100, I still prefer the C100 as the ultimate run & gun cam. The only thing that's holding me from upgrading to C100 Mk2 is the lack of 4K and higher frame rate which is much needed for me. With the announcement of FS5, it has won me over with the same excellent ergonomics as c100 and good specs. Ultimately all I want from a cam is it to work out of the box, highly portable and good ergonomic. Whether its 420 or 422, 8 or 10 bits doesn't matter to me because all my clients are layman and can't tell the difference and IMO, most modern cam have excellent image quality.

Shooting in RAW is a huge surprise!

Super excited, pair this one with the DJI handgrip and I dont need gimbal anymore!
From the photo there is lock-unlock symbol on the mount, could it be interchangeable lens?
The DR and Low light will be miles better than current gopro sensor.

Now its good time to buy NX1!

I posted my heat testing results on DVXuser (mine was the camera that turned off without warning).
Further testing yesterday with an external power supply and a cable battery adapter, and there's no difference in overheating. Again around 27 minutes in S35 and about 48 mins (with a 1min break at 29mins) in FF. I did notice that in S35 4K mode, that it did sometimes overheat without first getting a temperature warning icon.
And testing with USB power wasn't enough to to keep the camera on.

So it will overheat in 4K mode unless you use external recorder, not that great if the only mode that gives you the good result (S35 4K) also have overheating issue.
 
Better to wait for A7S II if you want reliable 4K continuous shoot

Late is better than never, when can we get H.264 recording option from Samsung? Right now we need even more space for H.265 because it need to be converted to H.264 first.

​The A7R II price is way out of league for most of people, the 4K APS-C will be priced more reasonable at least that most of us can actually afford it.

​I can speak for myself.  The answer is procrastination.

Yeah, if you dont need them now you can always wait, while for those who do either one of them can do the job, and by the time 32bit comes out you already master the gimbal compare to those who still wait, and you gonna beat them since your brain and body knows how to "fly" those well, and you will know which pid works and what not.
 
This one is done on Nebula 4000 with GH4 + Olympus 12 2.0, 25 1.8, 45 1.8, Sigma 60 2.8,  7-14 4.0, Nokton 25 0.95 and GH2 Samyang 7.5 3.5 on monopod

​There is PIX-E5H from video devices for $1195 that record 4K/UHD.. and a 5" 1080p monitor as well

Btw the Pilotfly is using 8bit for their handheld gimbal, they mention 32bit is for another model.

No surprise really, if they offer 4K on 5DIV the C100 MK II will loss a lot more potential customers.. it's PROFIT MARGIN first for Canon nowadays.
