Not true, as you will need to shoot at two stops higher ISO with the FF camera over the MFT camera. 
So the FF camera will only be ok if it is two stops cleaner to start off with, which as we know is not always the case. 
Which never ever happens in real life. 
Exactly! So if I can shoot at IS0 6400 with the GH5S but the a7Smk2 is forced two stops higher to get the DoF needed for the scene then the Sony is going to be worse for the lowlight scene. It is as simple as that. 
Exactly, another area where the a7Smk2 is being let down. 

(for instance the great raw from the BMPCC means with noise reduction in post it can actually be pretty ok in lowlight! And in the GH5S vs a7Smk2 situation the Panasonic undoubtedly has a better codec than the Sony)
Kai is an entertainer first and foremost. Is not a technical camera nerd geek at all
Additionally he comes from the stills world, not the film world.

Thus naturally you need to take everything Kai says with a BIG GRAIN OF SALT!

Still love watching his videos though as he is after all a great entertainer :-) 
OH BOY! Please link and quote it when this happens :-D

I am NOT sure why Panasonic didn't Include IBIS. I hope there is a good reason (sensor MP count and multi-aspect 4k crop factor) for it.
Otherwise they have Crippled a Superb camera for the GH5, for NO JUSTIFIABLE REASON.
Why would GH5 owners be Upset, Unless they are stupid. The GH5 has DOUBLE the Photo Resolution of the GH5s. That ALONE is reason not to fret or dispair. 

Exactly, that extra dynamic range being put into the highlight roll off is what gives the Arri Alexas their famous magic mojo

Well Kai is an entertainer/presenter, not a real hard core camera nerdy geek!

And he is focused on stills, not cinema. So always take an inch pinch of salt any time he talks about a non-stills subject matter. 

It is sunset even. 

Maybe by announcing this during our night of the 8th they are telling us the camera will have AMAZING LOWLIGHT?
Better lowlight even helps "big" budget productions. They can shoot faster with less. 
I've seen this first hand with a Varicam LT shoot. 

Here, watch William Wages ASC talk about how it is a game changer with lighting for him:
 

Intriguing!

FWIW, Photo Rumors just posted this: https://photorumors.com/2017/12/14/here-are-the-detailed-panasonic-gh5s-specifications/

It happens with most smartphone cameras since they only compensate for pitch and roll, and not for the yaw axis.

I have both the iPhone X and Note8. Of the two I think the iPhone X edges out the Note8 in the camera department. But as a productivity tool the Note8 wins hands down. The new chip should once again secure Samsung’s traditional camera dominance. They didn’t really try with the Note8, and that was a bit disappointing. Instead opting to largely reuse the camera from the S8.
i don’t think this race is going to stay on equal ground. A radically new sensor technology, that is not handicapped by size will make its way into smartphones. That’s when things will get interesting.

Amazing how more advanced your smart phone will be compared to your DSLR !
The processor will probably be in Samsung's S9 early next year. Other manufactures will showcase it at CES in January.

Knock yourself out. Take those awesome specs and actually film something interesting. 
That's what it's there for. 

Aaah. Thanks for pointing it out. I have been reading stuff in interludes for the longest.
 
They should hurry up with the release. 15th December is too far. 

Post it, bud!:) If you found a nice shortfilm with plot, don´t wait and post it please. I didn´t happen to be lucky on my search for it. Well, Andy Lee has not been on the forum for a while now, unfortunately. Good shorts with ultra low budget are very charming. Would love to see that kind of filmic approach with one of the three cameras above. Every camera finds its avid shooters, its masters. So would have it charms to find that charming people having done one or two shorts with one of the charming three cameras above.
@Anaconda_, I would not call your musicvideo a shortfilm in the sense I was trying to suggest   @sanveer Cool! Really looking forward to seeing your footage with it!
Posting threads on EOSHD didn´t make me rich neither:) What terminology would you suggest to give an adequate answer? For now, I´d say, some shortfilms which show joy of creation and being a narrative, showing off work with the filmic form in that context.
 Here is one  of my shorts, I´ve posted a while ago, filmic sketch much, much  rather, but still with an attempt to narrative, done with no budget, a Lumix G6 and a china boosted FD 28mm. Did a reshoot of the setup this August with audible!:) dialogue this time, with a small crew, two professional actors rather than non professional, though talented, collegues. This vid I did all by myself, therefore no audio for the voices
 

We shot a short film on a Panasonic GX85 (apart from a Nikon D5200).
Thw colours weren't matched in post. Not really something I would wanna share.
I will share another film or episode I shot on the GX85, hopefully soon. 

The iPhone WILL Do commercial (Bentley?) work because photographers and videographers are fallible and corruptible.
And Apple has in a new offshore in Jersey stashed hundreds of biliions of dollars from US tax authorities, which it is willing to pay judges, photographers and videographers, and various other individuals.
The V30 followed this when it had a face-off with a RED. Though the level of shamelessly is nowhere near the limit iPhone indulges in. 

I wanted to delete this (my) post.  I wish the OP would tell us something we don't already know about current smartphones in general.  Or say something like "iPhone X is Better than GH5" so we could try to run him out of town   
What I'd say is the iPhone X shows that these phones will NEVER do commercial work.  All improvements are mostly in computational photography, multi image synthesis, etc.  They simply don't have the sensor size or horsepower to keep up with today's expectations.
Think about it, there still isn't RAW video on any consumer camera.  I'm actually surprised.
The only reason to buy an iPhone X is to impress your friends. There, you can flame me now   

"Journalism has become so polarised. Right-wing or left-wing? 99% of the the debate happens in an extreme bubble on one side or the other."
 
Absolutely Incorrect. 90-99% of the Main Stream Media is Left (/Libertarian) Controlled and Funded. Therefore the Majority of Right (/Conservatice) Wing Media is relegated to Alternative News Streams and/ or channels with high viewerships but very uninspiring monetary models.
Also a Leftist Reporter or Documentary Filmmaker saying it was an effort was exaggerating the effort only 1000 times. 

You don't show it.

What you're asking is unreasonable by any yardstick. Why would Panasonic or anyone else in the Camera or any other industry give you too end features at low end ILC or mid-range Mirrorless or camera prices. It's like demanding C300ii features at 800D prices.
The only thing I think may be a possibility is that Panasonic should allow users in the GX85 range buy ($99?) Cineline D and other G85 type of features IF they can be implemented via firmware. Though Vlog would not come within that ambit, obviously. And no 180fps or even 96fps. 

I don't know if anyone saw the presentation, but this guy went on and on about how absolutely amazing the face recognition was, how neither masks nor face models (clay/ silicone?) could fool it, how they had like 1 billion faces scanned etc etc.
And then he tried using his face to unlock the phone ... And it FAILED. Hahahahahahahahaha 
He went ahead and punched in a security code number in, and pretended nothing happened.

Makes sense for those who go to Apple church.
Myself... now, I just don't share the same mentality and philosophy. Like, Windows isn't all that great from an OS perspective. But from the perspective of possibilities it's just not something I'm willing to give up on, there's just more I can do with the platform than I would with a Mac. Smartphones all the same. I like Android and you can set it up the way you see fit. Just, for a lot of people, that's too many options, it confuses them and scares 'em off. Instead they just want one ecosystem that's familiar, intuitive and pre-chewed spoonfed. I get that. But, that's just not me. I like choice. Speaking of which... where's your iPhone dualSIM options? Where's the microSD expandability? What if you want it equiped with a headphone port, etc. Atleast with Android there's many manufacturers and you can mix and match your wishes with devices that are availlable out there. And because of the competition out there prices have to be competitive too! Same for laptops and desktops... there's just much more choice and much fairer pricing going on.
But you know. There's a certain crowd that's just better off with a whole Mac ecosystem. I have no need to be an Apple hater. Just go and use whatever works for you. That's the most important thing, not what another person does, but what you do and you ending up being happy with that.
