  1. a6500 is a must have. Well, Fuji's color science too ;-)

    To me, Sony's low light response and S35 format coupled to reasonable AF and IBIS at the minimum LCD (stands for least common denominator) is a no-brainer.

    Only price target is overrated IMO, perhaps. But aside lowest Panasonic range, isn't the remainder offer the same panorama after all?

    As soon as the first 4K camera came on the market that interested me, the GH4, I stopped caring about sharpness any more.

    We have more detail than anybody can possibly notice when watching the film.

    Sharpness has become a pixel peeping tech spec curiosity rather than a really noticeable differentiator as it was with the 1080p cams.

    In fact too much sharpness is bad... high detail should be softer like on the 1D C in Canon LOG, with the option to dial it up with a sharpness filter in post.

    Yes there are still minor differences - some like the Samsung NX1 and A6500 over-sample from 6K sensors to 4K. Some from 5K-ish to 4K like the A7R II Super 35mm mode and X-T2.

    But seriously nobody notices when they see your footage.

    True. 4K is a golden standard for motion picture BTW. Big screen for theatrical release included. IMAX aside, perhaps.

    Actually, there is more beyond sharpness. Mavic outcome is a fine example of that.

    Well, unless we can call accidental to the tap to focus feature...

    This feature is unique, not present in any one of the Mavic competitors. Without mention a lens aperture almost one stop faster comparing with the previous offer : )

    As written earlier, so far, the jury is still out if it is a QC issue, a design flaw or a feature from its tap to focus design.

    I'd even dare to bet beyond (and a way more) than faulty units...

    The tap to focus design + a shitty codec for half-focused areas when the settings on sharpness are dialed down.

    :-)
