    AndersM got a reaction from User in Sony A7R II Review - Part 1 - Summoning the devil   
    I have a a7s and a SMAD-P3 and have asked Sony about this. They said they might make a SMAD-P3 with a 3.5mm input for ch.2.
    I can see that you would need more advanced audio circuitry to control two different inputs, but you could always hope.

    I would take built in NDs over 4K any day of the week.
    My job consists of getting the shots of actual happenings with no chance of directing(news). You can't really stop a politician or rescue worker or whoever to screw on an ND. 
     
    If this camera takes on the "AG" video name, asking for NDs is not that unreasonable.
     
    I can see that 4K is much better than NDs for marketing, but in my world(and I bet in yours as well) NDs has much more value. Sure the ability to reframe in post is nice, but I don't know how many in the market for this camera will deliver 4K masters...

    AndersM got a reaction from Zach Ashcraft in A look at the new video features of the new Sony A7, A7R and RX10   
    "Sony are offering a battery grip style add-on which gives the camera professional XLR audio jacks. Like the one rumoured for the GH3 but never materialising. I haven’t seen any images of this grip in the press releases though, nor any specs."
     
    I think they are just talking about the XLR-K1M adapter already available for the Sony dslrs ect...

    Nice review!
     
    I've had the GH3 for a few months and a few extra cons for me:
     
    - Ex-tele only works with 24/25/30fps modes. If you, like me, deliver to TV and have to shoot in 50/60i/p you don't have the ex-tele mode that worked in GH2. This is really disappointing!
     
    - On-display info disappears after 10 seconds. If you shoot an interview and want to keep an eye on the audio levels or other settings you have to hit a button every 10 seconds to have the info displayed. Also after the info has disappeared and you want to change a setting like ISO you have to push the button twice; Once to "wake" up the screen and once to access the setting. I still don't understand this behavior.
     
    - I'm not too sure about the build quality... I'm about to return my second GH3. On the first one the hot shoe came off, and the second one I have now shuts down randomly causing lost clips if I'm in record. Both these problems have been reported by others as well.
     
    Other than that, great camera!
