Thats the IBIS price you gonna pay. Without a fixed heatsink these sensors should overheat.  

A minor segway for people who wonder why the hell anyone would shoot on nikon still: I was editing stuff from my last shoot yesterday. Interior shot exposed for the exterior sky (so there was just a tiny bit of data in the blue channel).  Flat profile on nikon d5500, as flat as possible on the gx85.  Blue skies recoverable from both shots, interior on the gx85 absolutely unrecoverable, no problems on the d5500 (and if only they had a decent codec it could be pushed much further).  I dont know how the gh5 and log will compare, but the *usable* dynamic range on the nikons is still better than I've seen in this segment.  
I love my nikon gear, I also want them to be around in 10 years time :/

I will archive your face if you don't shut up

Interesting specs, but this is the camera for the rich at 5300 Euros. The A9 II will come out in just 9 months, tumbling the price of this one. I'll just stick with my GX80... good enough for stills and video and un-matched value! Period.

They could make this beast a perfect camera with internal 10bit recording! Why Sony? WHY? 

Bitrate is 144mb/s. 
D-light and stabilization is only available in HD. 
Limitations of electronic stabilization is understandable, but I don't know why they couldn't make D-light ready for 4k. Implemented correctly, it has potential to become a must have feature in video shooting. Maybe lifting shadows of every 4k frame is tough job for its still-optimized CPU.

They gain Customers because the 5D has no 1080 60fps mode?

Idk, what I believe or don't believe is personal to me. But to come onto someone's post and tell them to ditch their beliefs, on their video is... kinda shitty. Just sayin'...

It was the most 10bit article of EOSHD to date, but some people still can't notice the difference.

I too am excited about getting my hands burned by a Sony camera that's melting from recording 5 minutes of RAW.

Ehh, what Sony forgets to mention in the headline grabbing campaign is that the card is still V30 meaning the minimum sequential write speed can easily drop to 30MB/s. Even the upcoming GH5 400Mbps firmware will need V60 at least and that's far from raw. At the moment only Delkin makes V90 cards, offering a 90MB/s minimum speed.

Your eye is not trained enough. To my ears, all fighter jet engines sound same, but there are people who can hear the difference. Does it matter? I don't know.

Apparently customer support budget is mostly concentrated on few markets where they feel they have more chance to grab market share, like Europe.

I have owned a few Panasonic ILCs until now (the GH2, the GH3 and the GH4 briefly). I really enjoyed using all of them. I bought all of them from my local dealer in Bombay, India, and never once had an issues with any of them. Never.
I was supposed to head to Europe at the end of last year, but the plan was shelved, and, sometime mid last year, I was without a camera. My sister happened to be in Australia in August, and I asked her to pick up a Panasonic GX85 from Australia (from Diamonds Camera Adelaide). That was a HUGE mistake. While I have bought a plethora of stuff from B&H, I have never really bought anything from Australia before.
I got the camera to India, and there were strange vertical likes (purple and pink), across the screen and viewfinder. I took it to the local service centre at New Delhi, and they didn’t even know Panasonic has a GX85 model. When I told the service centre guys, that I suspected an issue with the sensor, he claimed it was not due to the CCD sensor, but due to some circuity issues with the LCD (completely ignoring my pointing out that viewfinder also had the same issue). I got the hint that he didn’t know anything about cameras when he felt a DSLR would have a CCD sensor. Plus they didn’t spare parts, and said the whole process would take months to fix.
I then, obviously had to send it back to Adelaide all the way from New Delhi, only because the Service Centre in India was ill-equipped to handle any issues with Panasonic ILCs here (most model aren’t introduced, and the ones which are … well, their owners pray to God that they never have an issues). I wanted Diamonds Camera to change the camera with a new one, but they got it serviced instead. I got it back to India, and now, while the curious sensor issue has gone (they apparently changed the sensor itself), the camera is unable to focus at anything beyond 2 metres. Basically its like a Dud Camera. And, the service centre most likely screwed up with the sensor installation. Or the focusing needs calibration.
I have owned many pieces of equipment before, but, this must be the very first time I owned a camera for 6 months, where for the majority of the period of those 6 months it didn’t work. And, to think of it, I was planning to pick up 2 Panasonic GH5s for my future work.

I don’t know how Panasonic can have such lousy Quality Control, and even worse after sales. Maybe that is why almost Nobody in India uses a Panasonic. Almost everyone uses a Canon, Nikon or more recently Sony. First, most of their models never get introduced here. And the ones that are, mysteriously, cannot be serviced.
In all fairness to Diamonds Cameras, they have asked me to send it back to Australia, for replacement with a new camera, and they have also been gracious enough to say that they will cover the to and fro expenses of the international courier. The only issue is now that I have had such a terrible experience with Panasonic, that I almost certain I won’t be touching another Panasonic Camera with a 10 foot barge pole. Also, that the International Courier will keep the camera in transit for atleast 4 weeks, if not longer.

As much as I want to believe, there is something wrong here. I am not sure if it sample variation or measurement error, but this is the first example that there is such a big difference between DXOMark and the tests by DPReview. 
 

 

Ignore their overal score, its BS. but their DR measurements are accurate and reliable. RED should be honest with their customers, 15.2ev means only 12 stop of "usable" DR (check here yourself: www.photonstophotos.net/Charts/PDR.htm), and its only true at base ISO.
Where did those 18 stop claims come from?
