@graphicnatured or any of you, if you are in the market for a focal reducer, better to take a look on this new thread:

Now P4K is out and it is rather easy to figure out that manual focus is the only way to go alongside this camera, also time to explore the best route to go other than native glass: https://jimchungblog.com/2017/12/15/viltrox-ef-m2-adaptor-tested/ http://www.verybiglobo.com/metabones-speed-bosster-ultra-review-part-i/ http://www.verybiglobo.com/metabones-speed-booster-ultra-review-part-ii-canon-ef-501-2-l/

Pocket 4K tap-to-focus feature is actually unusable so better to accept manual focus as mandatory in this camera.

Yes, of course. As much as MSRP price. You need to wait to see the product reach the streets first, isn't it? That video up there hints about a bit what expects you, doesn't it? ; -)

This camera you mention already exists, they call it URSA Mini...

@BTM_Pix Absolutely not you who has contributed raising solutions, not surely me who launched the thread... ; ) Not even others who follow the same trend. I should have written "over there" instead. I meant, here, there and everywhere about this new camera. Come hell or high water, such complaints about battery or anything alike are a bit pathetic, don't you all agree? : -)

So much contempt on such versatile sensor format... Half the size on GH5 pixels, double them and voilá ; ) Not the best low light performer but with the most recent high sensitivity sensor technology will we need much more than today's outcome as far as shooting by night concerns? No need for infrared, really.

I note some error from your keyboard though, Don... you mean "...Arri Alexa image quality..." instead? LOL ; -)

Prejudice. That's all about that. This wording can be very misleading. This is not even clever for educated minds ; -)

Not only for that, count on it. I hope to take it as the most interesting hybrid to date ; -)

Different perspectives which sums up the whole point. Plastic, yeah, so what?! Lightweight requires it to begin with. I guess price range follows. That's what P4K users ask for. Horses for courses. There are other cameras to fulfill different cups.

Very well @andrgl, it is the second time at least (I only recall my positive remark on Sareesh aka wolfcrow you certainly don't share) you downvote me from your customary reaction towards some members over here when you don't like anything, so I suggest you spill the beans this time... I am all ears to see your visual : D and factual evidence that we can't have hope on Panasonic firmware updates or you will only downvote me once again instead...? LOL : ) PS: Because if it is for my OT discussion with @thebrothersthre3 once you've downvoted his entries as well or you are virgin over there as we all : -D let me remind you something to our -- mine and his defense in behalf of the fact that P4K is the resurrection of MFT to mismatch the Northrup's death proclamation ; ) I see nothing but useful to not presume the Queen of the format (GH series) is already outdated. Even Fuji's for its price range and segment, let alone questions on reliability and so on, they also converge to be related to this new Pocket 4K camera, obviously (just my 2 cents, fellow : -)

It can't be much more than that $2000 price range for sure, I don't think it will reach $3K but what do I know? : ) That's the beauty of MFT ; -)

Indeed. Even though the results I've seen they have impressed me. They should be working hard to address the issue, isn't it? No GH5 here now. It only remains my four G7 units, so I am unable to see by myself. Hey, I am a believer, though! : -)

From new thread recently opened by Don (thanks @webrunner5) I found this interesting release: https://www.43rumors.com/kamlan-announced-two-new-mft-lenses-50mm-f-1-1-and-28mm-f-1-8/ https://www.sainsonic.com/collections/manual-prime-lens/products/zonlai-22mm-f1-8-large-aperture-manual-focus-lens-prime-lens https://www.sainsonic.com/collections/manual-prime-lens/products/kamlan-28mm-f-1-4-standard-prime-lens https://www.sainsonic.com/collections/manual-prime-lens/products/kamlan-50mm-f1-1-prime-lens Take a look on this 9-months teaser...

Just waiting to see if there's no moire nor aliasing artifacts going along video coming from such high resolution sensor acquisition.

FT5 seems high the probability to see it around in the beginning of the year. If it will add 4K/60p with reasonable bit rate, IBIS? I will surely buy one. MFT glass attracts me.

Nothing against. Let's put our money where evidence is, though : ) I'd sincerely appreciate to see AF comparatives. People talk, talk but from theoretical presumptions... Facts are beyond that.

And today? ; ) Well, 2 million dollars won't make that 100 bucks dinner less expensive than your million... ; -)

Really? So now prejudice or theory beat practice? Since then? Post it, publish your findings or they are just coming from your keyboard. This applies from mine or someone else's as well : -)

Really pertinent information, thanks for reporting : ) Please. Rather useful information : -)

Source for (verifying) such bold statement? ; ) Prejudice? It can even be true but what do you or we know on the subject matter? I can't compare them... Can you? Where's a fair comparison? And you or anyone else will be able to shut fanboys mouth then... ; -)

Past nowadays:

Thanks @dslnc, my next purchase! : -) ...and end of crying babies over here whining on lack of power solutions (doesn't make any sense) Anyways, much better to put a few inside your bag or pocket, than actually this -- at least to me: (for continuous recording take a look on the first page of this thread!)
