There's nothing (not even) similar to FUJI... That's the most close to film capture in the digital realm, ARRIs included*. * I only don't add here Blackmagic because I really can't :-)

It will end in the same results because of diagonal: This is inaccurate: https://www.43rumors.com/exact-crop-factors-caluclated-new-gh5s-multiaspect-sensor/

Yes Fritz, ISO400 is cleaner than ISO2500. I've posted something on topic in another thread even though from another similar camera example but same family (EVA1). I meant on high ISOs instead. As said, both values keep the widest DR; a different department than exactly and strictly noise related.

That's only half true... It is not exactly what Adam Wilt has proved it: https://www.provideocoalition.com/review-panasonic-au-eva1-4k-cine-camera-part-3/ "Native 2500 is noisier than native 800 is, but the advantage of dual native ISOs is that the higher native ISO is less noisy than it would be were it derived from the lower base ISO." Boosted:

Jon in his provocative best ; ) LOL :-)

LOL You're good on that one, thanks pal : ) I meant on the high ISOs actually. Did they ever release the native ISO for GH5? I recall Matt Frazer said not to be allowed to advise on it. So, officially is 400? Since the native ISO2500 reaches the widest DR on GH5S, ISO1600 is roughly about half of a stop of loss and its DR is wider (2 stops they say?), it should theoretically be better than the outdated GH5, isn't it? ; ) Even though, as I could write to you earlier, practice redefines theory ; ) so as much as chart tests vs shooting real life, everything must be subject to be proved on the field instead before :-)

Jon, one stop and a half of improvement is too tight. Three stops that some of them claim is perhaps too much : ) Somewhere between 2 stops, 2 stops and a half is pretty more accurate as far as I could see from the samples already available.

As far as I could understand, yes, for 3328x2496 and 4992x3744 native resolution, respectively, on each one of those both camera models you've just mentioned. Any idea when we''ll have your anamorphic prime series and the adapter to reach the streets? :-)

hehe :-) What odds on the promised Osmo adapter for that X5S pearl? ;-)

A private joke, fellow. This has to do with a previous conversation (about cameras) with another user. Which started with my customary use of calling people by their real names rather than the username when I know to whom I'm addressing some words even online. Someone who became more private when you're growing up friendships over here. Personal relationships we develop here, you know. While camera talk stands. I don't think a way of expressing our comrade feelings among us may look odd. From a certain point on, we trade private messaging through your own forum among others to obviously follow other tools in the real life too. Why not? I've had the chance to make good friends from these boards. A few of them no Ocean in-between made that impossible. Such a pride? Well, go all for it : ) And if you pay more attention, there are other people here on the same route now to personally addressing by their 1st name too. That I find very healthy of a forum you've created. So kudos to all, I guess :-)

Not tuned on that announcement. Are you sure it is Mavic related? What about the Osmo handle for the X5S? We're waiting that for ages... Positive wishful thinking hasn't helped out much. Glad that has given to you good money though. So seems to reconsider and buy something we said nah is not so bad after all... LOL ;-) Thanks God it is not, Andrew! : D Trust me, it is a pain to end frustrated so many times. I am far to be alone on that one. Every day I hear people (in the real world) complaining about that. It is not free negativism, nor GH5S fanboism and never naysayer attitude against a brand (my 1st love, man!). To my personal experience (sorry it again hehe) more the 8-bit mantra than reliability issues (perhaps better luck with the units arrived here) but that's what I am used to listen people say in the real world too.

Exactly. Wishful dreaming as written before is much different of the real chances to live that for more than a forum post ; ) @wolf33d Sorry mate ;-)

Indeed. Reason why I told @wolf33d to not count on it. Even though Sony has to do something anyhow if does want to beat sales. Let's hope for it. Small body size can compromise that 'cause overheating as wisely pointed out over here. So in the end it is very likely the 10-bit mojo will become restricted to HDMI output. My balanced guess.

So there will be a 1" sensor. Interested now David? :-)

I am just in doubt if they are aware there is anything (10-bit 4:2:2) out there for 2 grand... LOL Sorry and I hope to be fully wrong on it but I guess they will launch a third 8-bit version of the same camera. Good chance for 10-bit 4:2:2 via HDMI though :-D I'll buy one if I end to fail on my pessimism anyway. I'd rather put my odds on Blackmagic that they will announce new 4K portable acquisition for NAB, my utmost bet. Add your dollars there :-)

@webrunner5 Don, are we sure they know Panasonic has 10-bit for 2 grand...?! & @wolf33d

Lumix 12-35mm & 35-100mm. Without IS (no OIS will save the grace, so couple the Zhiyun Crane-2 gimbal) you have the Tokina 11-20mm or the previous 11-16mm; Canons (all mark II) 16-35mm, 24-70mm and the stabilized 70-200mm. In the MFT camp, the Olympus 7-14mm & 40-150mm. Without mention the mandatory Sigmas (f/1.8 though, so you get 1 extra stop and a third) 18-35mm & 50-100mm (less than the first one).

@Trek of Joy No, you sound right! I hadn't thought about it. I was lazy and took the value from @Mattias Burling without thinking twice. My bad.

It would be nice but it wouldn't surprise me at all if only via HDMI externally...

Trying...? *cough cough* Sure. Let's wait for a new Panasonic arrival and we'll see where you'll be posting about. In any case, I never stop to appreciate your entries which I half concur for awhile now. I don't think I am the only one. Don't you know? Is a first time being? Where have you been after all? You're always missed man! Whether you go totally on defensive or not (Love, E :-)

I'd say ISO12800 is the 3200 on GH5, that is, the new territory to avoid, so ISO10000 on GH5S the new 1600 limit on GH5; as my most optimistic bet... about 2 stops and a half for lowlight, not bad. Imagine a f2.8 to let you see light as could be a f1.2 pick. With about 1.15x of crop coupled to SB 0.64x XL version, the new GH5S is the new FF* in town! Even though, from other samples I've seen I'd even include 12800 (where others have also compared 12800 on GH5S to 3200 from GH5 too, so I believe I should not be too much optimistic over here). * Sorry guys but I love to provoke a few minds from these boards... LOL :-)

Nice find... :-)

OK, so such external lock boxes won't overcome the issue? No workaround at all? How does it occur when a DSLR has no such feature as happens now with the GH5S? What about YAGH and the previous GH4 and GH5 models? GH series didn't start with the GH5S...

You meant in your blog? No, I will then.
