I want every camera with 2 bits more than what they already have!!! And double the fps!!! 

A little bit of light, placed in the right place, can make a really big difference!!! ;-D

I really really want to read what it lacks from the naysayers...... ;-DD

To the OP, I have a couple of Yongnou YN300 daylight. I am very happy with them. They may not be the most colour accurate lights in the world, but they can work. You will probably put a film emulation or CC anyway. If you want the purest skin tones, you should better work outdoors. 

I also have a soft box with Ikea LED lamps. I work for a meat company and meat needs to be cold or it change colours. But the soft box is a PITA to move, transport, etc. The couple of YN300 with some serious batteries (than seem to last forever) just take like 20% of a normal backpack. 

To JazzBox, lamps produce lumens, not watts. It also depends what you must do with the light. When they use a lamp to fake the sun, they put a 5-10KW HMI. That's a lot of light! 

 

the 15min limitation seems okay since very few pieces of music last this long and i can trigger it from a smartphone.

But changing the battery 1 or 2 times in the concert is a bit harder to deal with...

Can a USB battery pack (those used to recharge your mobile) e connected to the USB port and power the camera or at least recharge??

In LOTR a hobbit was a hobbit. In The Hobbit a hobbit is an actor dressed with make-up to look like a hobbit.

Rc, you are not making wedding videos for us, you are doing them for your clients. You are showing some progression in those links you posted. I liked you used more live audio, you edited better (in the first one you cut a lot of times to a similar frame, in the second the fades "fade away" the attention) and you are improving. One recommendation, don't get too fixed on flares, color correction or a cool wipe. A plug-in won't make you a better videomaker!!! Those are just the icing. 

I don't do wedding videos, so take my advice with a grain of salt! ;-D 

But the a6000 is that different from the a5100??

If you don't need too much zoom Panasonic LX100. If you are more into nature or other subjects which need a long lens, then a FZ1000. Both are 4K and give more IQ than any HD camera can...

Review, review, review! ;-)))

Thanks Andrew for your review, which always considers real life usage issues (like storage space needed and battery life) instead of just pixel peeping blablabla!!!

Only thing i want to see from Panasonic is a FF GH camera with all the FF advantages. I want to see its performance right now. THAT will be a game-changer more all-rounder camera than every other under (or above) 3000$ atm.

With what lenses?? Panasonic has no APS-C or Full Frame lenses??

"In stock" in italian is: "Disponibilità: Immediata"

Hi! I live in Rome, but have no m43 cameras nor lenses. 

I googled and got this (it seems they have one on stock and can pick it up), you should better call before:

A big rig will probably do it for the "bigger is better" clients. If it's not enough, the Sony FS100 is a very nice camera!

Nice!!!

Is there an alternative to the expensive 12-25mm f2.8 lens?? Not manual lenses, something with autofocus. I never had a GHx camera, the autofocus is more about focus points like Canon or face-detection like Sony?? Thanks!

Wow, Panasonic really wants my money!!! It's so positive not only from a features/price ratio, but from the fact that they are finally listening what people wants!!!!!!!  :P  :lol:  :D  ;)

I had the LX100 in my radar, but this could change everything!!!

AVCHD and movement are really enemies!

What they said! First a projection, but if you must send it, low resolution, big watermark! Good luck, it's good news they are interested!!!

I have had computers for a loooong time now and I have invested in just two good monitors. A Sony 19" CRT (like nearly 20 years ago) and a Dell 23" LCD (from 2005). I am writing this on the Dell, it's very hard on video, you have to work to make things look good on it. The nice thing is that if I get things to look good on it, they look good everywhere else!!!

The 4K Photo Mode seems oriented to get good pictures from the video stream, not so much to have good video. 

My doubt about the LX100 was more a weight over the lens concern...

Only one question:

Can you mount it on Panasonic LX100? :D

That question is good, is the LX100 up to have an anamorphic adapter attached or it's not strong enough?? If the GH4 goes multiformat, it is THE camera to go anamorphic though!

The Century Optics I have works a lot better with wide-angles than with normal lenses, on a big sensor camera. I would love to try it on the new LX100 at 4K... Never had a 7200!

They probably did the wide shot first and then the close-ups. For those close-ups they probably used something a lot higher than 50fps, but you could always try with the ingredients you want/need and test to slow it down on the edit.
