BTW who has used the SSD coupled to P4K with no IBIS won't feel much difference... : P

Well, it was not for this dude here... Canon even sent him a camera ; ) and he didn't complain on using external power to shoot 8K 60p either ;- ) Shills aside, I guess I will hardly resist... :- )

What the hell of society is this one...?! https://www.euronews.com/culture/2022/01/26/killed-by-indifference-84-year-old-photographer-rene-robert-dies-in-the-snow-on-busy-paris https://english.elpais.com/usa/2022-01-28/photographer-rene-robert-freezes-to-death-on-busy-paris-street.html

For sure, reason why it makes little to no sense to deny 4K and above don't bring anything new as I've read here a few times... ; ) So @Andrew Reid is also on the spot with his 80% quote over the look : ) Even though, to couple "space", cinema is also and mainly "time" where stuff such as cadence, frame rate, shutter etc., play a no less relevant role (EAG :- )

Love your reflections, mate! < 3 Art is all about that, in a word: perception :- )

I dunno... What I see despite the distinction between sensors and so on, we can practically mimic any outcome from one to another today ; ) IMO features and respective knowledge and skills count much more than anything else :- )

Yes, you're right : ) But let's not forget the whole paraphernalia associated with ; ) That's the whole point, making movies is everything we want but hard like hell as we all know here :- ) For some reason I am focused on the lighter the better, hence to adopt this revolution the miniaturization is! : P Minimum requirements are needed though, that's La Palice's indeed.

Medium Format is categorically a whole different format towards stills rather than dealing with motion for obvious and inherent reasons : ) Nice find @Andrew Reid and very enjoyable to watch if any odd doubts people could still raise :- )

Don't focus too much on flaws along glass, if under control, they can produce beautiful content from either motivated, unmotivated lighting, even practical light sources as well framing and production values such as locations, subject, etc. when these other requirements are not absent there (EAG :- )

Nice thoughts : ) The most funny is not every DoP (less than before but still today come from film realm) are more expert on these modern digital cameras than a few digitally oriented since the beginning we could call just enthusiastic ; ) I've found many really good and with only their late 20s, 30s, which means they practically were born or yet children when the transition occurred if we can tell it like that :- ) There's a difference between a real DoP with a YT channel and those who are actually reviewers, that is, press, whether mere shills or more than that.

If there are some other collections and barrels not exactly glass related, what about ours? ; ) Inspired by this post from one of the most dearest ones among us and a most part of us after all... Show us your Nerd ;- )

Haha on this last one I fully agree with you : ) Albeit not in general on the first paragraph :- ) BTW and in order to be clear, you're one of the most enthusiastic and unforgettable contributors over here, so please keep going with your legit love for the pictures expressed among us. Enjoyable. If there is one who has this merit, this guy is you : ) Love to be your reader and follow your perspective. There are other people to worth the same attention anyway, even with a different angle from yours. That's life and pretty healthy ; ) Cinema is also talking, in behalf of its improvement. Without it, no outcome to evolve or hardly serves for anything... To share is and will always be key, so thanks for sharing kye -- don't focus too much on this rhyme though ;- )

In theory, two stops of difference at least is huge, it's 4x wider as far as DR concerns which obviously should produce an impact on IQ and hightlights roll off but, we didn't see any comparative test in the field yet, so the jury is still out on that... ;- )

On the other hand, we have the shills, not exactly here but spread nowadays on YouTube who kill all the valuable information we are used to find on a few places like a brand agnostic voice as EOSHD still is. I believe that's why this discussion is yet possible between both sides and you're not exactly flooded with the customary paid BS. At least here. That said, I don't see anything wrong on taking ARRI ALEXA as parameter : ) Just committed with a couple of feature films shot along 1x Classic and 2x Mini for some good reason. Even though, in one of them, basically RED Dragon as preferred capture device other than the ALEXA Mini, mainly used for low light but not because the RED was not able to perform well as actualy was. Factually for narrative exigence, the circumstances were restricted to low light footage during the night time.

Early 2022. It's already here the latest build for real : D hybrid shooters: https://github.com/mirsadm/motioncam/releases - Aperture switching on phones with variable aperture; - Black and white level clipping indicator; - Improved contrast curve in photo mode. No other product in the history of filmmaking has been so developed and improved ever! Practically in a daily basis!

You know what's the problem here and each time a new camera is released? People need to justify why don't buy the new toy and start to elaborate a reason for themselves based on their earlier investment invariably to protect. It seems pretty clear to me the same vibe I found at the film school with a substantial part of the instructors there, especially those more connected with an academic career despite not everyone, when were used to hate the other ones of same generation working and getting acknowledgment outside of the bubble, that is, the usual inner circle. To my eyes it's all about that and I'm pretty sure a lot of you think the same, just better to be politically correct and don't admit it. In four letters: PITA. For a simple reason: no other fallacy is distorting more the truth than this one here. I'm sorry to have to write it. I don't make my day to look like impolite and I guess there's the risk to sound like one. So kill the messenger then but here's my two cents. - EAG

Do you already realize this is the first camera full hybrid? With the C label under the $4,500 mark? Let alone RAW video (RAW light), 8K 60p, 4K 120p without overheating... This is no less than such a milestone! EAG :- )

Reason why we we are here : ) Little room to complain, many options never hurt :- )

On the spot : ) The release of this new camera is to celebrate. Their merit. No criticism is able to change that :- )

PS: Just chosen randomly... many more waiting to be found by you! :- )

Inspired by @kye on this quote, I think this should serve as reflection to everyone who visits this forum which is all about that -- there's no excuse anymore on all new fancy releases when a $100-$150 capture device (I have 4x of them BTW) is able to give this to the world: Support and participate here and there for this particular camera.

Just perfect. Hats off. 100% agreed. Thanks for writing it because people need to fully realize that : ) Other than that, everything else is useless :- )

I think other than much more, for sure, we both share the same love for knowledge and the mandatory aspect of a lot of it (good example BTW), as well, contempt for the misleading idea of pretentious obsolescence over still useful technology, to begin with. TBH I hate the idea to see something rather helpful to be replaced for something inferior : ) Aside a particular weakness for ingenious technology invariably consequence of many years of development, effort of many and commitment to not be easy to see it down the hill all of a sudden, as occurs so many times, seems like a nonsensical waste... This concern and the purity of your defense on a 180º shutter is actually the proof the way you see motion pictures as the most high standing we ALL, without exception, must care about. In a line: cinema is time. So I am not here saying your rants have no reason to be widely accepted, on the contrary : ) My straightforward point is how much the superior technology can impede something an inferior one will allow. I recall when 8-bit YCbCr 3:1:1 1440x1080 HDCAM format was replacing the option for 35mm film but to actually overcome the 100 thousand bucks of cost for film stock, processing and the leftover to spend at the lab (the average for a feature film). The difference between to work in this industry or making (arthouse) movies, or not, for many ; ) If some inferior technology will be the key to open gates I am unable to reach in some other way -- 'the fairly enough', I am ready to sacrifice it because there are other options I need to catch. Sometimes only to survive, some other occasions the remaining way just to accomplish it. EAG :- )

* I stand corrected a couple of posts above, I obviosly meant "digital stabilization", sorry for the typo, failure, whatever you want to call it, I didn't read it twice and as already said earlier in one of these threads, 5 minutes is too short to edit any mistake, error, etc., mainly for long posts :- )

Well, I am just finishing two feature films shot on ALEXA Mini, RED Dragon and a7S, so I should also be considered brand agnostic, no? : D Well, speaking of Portuguese people even if I am doing the whole of my work outside from my UK basis, here's a promotion video sponsored by Canon Europe shot by a French in the beautiful Portuguese land of Madeira island:
