The best camera is that one with us then, isn't it? ; ) Reason why I praise AF & IBIS, no matter how old school I or we come from :- )

You're in your right : ) I for once traded my yet new 5DII used mainly for motion picture and still part of my collection for a GH1 somewhere between the streets of Ljubljana and Zagreb because of form factor. Used mostly for stills, yeah, go figure! : D Never looked back. Love small devices, glass and pocket size included, hence my MFT love as well < 3

I am lost now, my friend : ) Is the new firmware update safe then? I am in the market to commit the sacrilege to probably buy one... I'm sorry I can't resist with an effective mod on the corner ; ) The hybrid shooter inside me begs for it! LOL 8K / 4K 120fps / IBIS / AF combo is too much... to resist quiet! : D

I obviously follow your point but isn't MFT enough and much budget friendly to free you out for sharing our precious resources anywhere else? ; ) My Samyang 12mm f/2.0 or even a Laowa 7.5mm f/2 (to match a f/4 aperture as 35mm equivalent) will perfectly fulfill the bill, trust me... ;- )

I don't see why you have to struggle with a 10mm lens and not with a 20mm one on FF : D I sincerely don't. Pardon me but looks like mere prejudice and misconception going on here. There's nothing limited on MFT, on the opposite, it is a much more affordable format and you have many more glass options. Codecs?!! WTH this should be or actually is connected with the sensor format?? Only resolution can justify a larger sensor size, not else! Not even low light today. E :- )

Guess who joined the party? @DBounce you're missed man, you must have lost your password... what else? ;- )

Baseless/clueless/nonsense indeed ; ) There's nothing crippled on MFT, as matter of fact, we cannot say the same on FF side today... LOL ;- ) To be straightforward... with the sensor used on GH5s/P4K, not even to justify the sensor size to achieve low light performance. Coupled to fast glass, DOF applies too, so what is left? Only the price of the cameras and glass, that's it. The same way we have a defective offer on the new toy just arrived: strictly commercial reasons.

Seems 96 clips instead of... 30 seconds each?! Should we celebrate then? *cough cough*

First off, need to know how many minutes each?

Oh, you have (dedicated) wide angle lenses on MFT end as well! ;- )

In certain languages, obstacle can be a noun or a verb. Seems in English the most suitable verb is a most refined form, that is, to block. That's the only move we can expect from them... Focus on a mod solution. Other than that, looks like perfectly useless because it depends on a business decision just straight in the opposite direction.

No, I think mod team is going in the right direction. Need to forget any further move from Canon instead. As well, future firmware updates. It is quite probably it will never happen. At least for soon. The only ones will probably be to obstacle the good efforts to put this camera to serve filmmakers. Our only hope is an usable mod.

This is just a mere business. This put them on shame. Embarrassing to say the least. Hackers/modders are more dignified (and reputable parties) than established manufacturers as Cannot. What a strange world we all live in.

Why doesn't Canon UK support EOSHD as they do with these dudes? (and I do appreciate Gordon Laing's objectivity anyway) Because they serve the brand's goals instead. Here's why we should ALL support the spirit and good efforts of this mod team here (I'd rather call it mod than hack as matter of fact!) It is here where filmmaking tech vanguard is (Andrew's credit/credentials), not where the commercial target rises up. E :- )

Seems not a single word on topic... or I am lost over here? I am not as smart as @BTM_Pix ; ) so please can anyone explain what does this shit exactly mean? Thank you! I only wanna know if I will buy this thing or not... Firmware fix or mod/hack, anything serves if it fits the bill and does the job just fine, I am not so much picky :- D

Is it a test, right? Let it see till where and how far it goes... Temperature(s) measure is mandatory, of course. Other than that, important is to check if there's an usable mod here to pop up. That is, if they won't try to restrict it through a firmware update from the last rumors on a new one to come.

"I tested the temperatures of the R5 with a Seek Thermal camera, on the outside, as well as of the memory cards and card slot at the time of changing the CFexpress cards, in prior tests as well as during the recording of this video. In my opinion, no unusual high temperatures were measured. The Ninja V gets a lot hotter, and not only at its heatsink, the screen of the Ninja V feels much hotter than the R5 ever has on any of its surfaces, the past month. The R5 has felt the hottest, not while shooting video, but while shooting slightly more than 8000 photos in an hour on the electronic 20 fps setting with RAW+jpeg, yet not hotter than my D850 felt through the years after similar abuse. My GH5 is much hotter after an hour of recording, also at its memory card bay. My 2011 Macbook Pro and 2012 Alienware laptops have felt a lot hotter a lot of the time, and they are still doing fine. The 4K proxies of the 8K RAW edit just blisteringly fast on the 2011 Macbook Pro, better than the native a7R4 MP4's on my 8 core Intel with RTX2080Ti, I create the proxies on the latter though, quickly, and the rendering too of course." "All this 8K bashing is a bit silly, I find, years and years we worked with proxies, but a slower native MP4 native editing is very much in vogue right now, I am apparently slow to follow the latest fashion; nobody is perfect. I switched to 1080p when many said, who can watch this in 1080p, you're crazy, same with 3D, same with 4K, now with 8K. If you treat the 8K RAW as a photographer, you all of a sudden have a 30 FPS 35 megapixel stills camera with a buffer of 30.000 images that clears immediately, that is, if you need to spray and pray for 17 minutes in one go, some photographer." ~ Electroholic Anonymous source (ONLY 4 subscribers!? WTH is this?? LOL) 100% agreed. Glad I am not alone : ) Andrew, you have a hell of quality of members on the board, man... I even think people are not enough aware this is the most helpful filmmaking corner on Internet as far as tech issues concerns. My gratitude and most fair reason why I am here :- )

I had no idea you existed until I read your posts here and this incredible entry on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IagTjRO5Y30 I invite everyone to follow the content you wrote/left there. Credits and kudos to Andrew's tests/findings as well : ) What do you plan next? :- )

I've already lost my maths on their stuff... well, at least two of those models (G7 & GX85) count with five units from my side + 3x GH1 + 2x GF5 + 1x FZ1000... jewels of my collection :- )

Marty, Panny once Panny forever : ) There's no other similar brand anywhere else. They are synonymous of motion picture shooting itself. Happy camper since 1986, E :- )

You're not kidding, seems fine to me. Where/when can we get it? :- )

LOL Hilarious. This is a real comedy. I had never seen anything like that before. We are in 2020, not 25-30 years ago... E :- )

You're making history, guys! Don't complain ; ) without Cannot you wouldn't be there... : D (E :- )
