Yeah either XF705 or the Sony Z280 for a  fixed lens camera, they each have their own pros and cons. For a Supa 35 sensor camera with interchangeable lenses - Sony FS7 and the Panasonic EVA 1 are your only options under $7,500 USD.

Where can he buy the Sony fs7 under $7500 please?

a friend of mine wish to buy a camcoder, I wish to suggest him a good model so I'm asking your help.

which camcoder can do at least 60p at 4k with a good 10 bit codec for color, and good low iso performances?

tell me if there are other characteristics to look for please (maybe a good stabiliser?).

he needs it to shoot documentaries.

thx!

I solved with photoshop express! thx for your help!

Perhaps you can edit your original post to reflect more specific criteria? You didn't mention color NR before. I think if that's what you're looking for, your options are fairly limited. Affinity has an iPad app, but its $20. They claim its a full blown photo editor, but I've never tried it to see.

I tried but I can not edit the first post, maybe it's not possible after some hours from the first edit.

I did a test on my pc before buying the app: lightroom vs affinity with raw pics. in all the samples I tested (all raw pics from canon 7D) affinity show very unnatural color rendition with a really strong magenta cast. If i try to correct it adding some "green" I loose completely the skin tones, I can show a sample below.

this was just pc (the beta version), maybe they sorted out the problem on ipad or the non beta PC version (Serif Affinity Photo 1.6.5.112 Beta June 18)

@Anaconda_ I did a test, it 's a very nice app and I wish to buy it but it's not possible to do it: the complete version it's only monthly or annual subscription. I wish an app to buy or free that have not the need to pay again every year. Do you have another suggestion please?

edit. the app does not support raw, it open a raw image and convert it to jpeg

they are working on it

@Phil A I edit only raw files in ipad, i took them from my dslr canon 7d, I use a connection cable to do it. I plug the dslr directly into the ipad and I transfer the raw pics into the ipad hdd.

@Trek of Joy thx I tested "Snapspeed", it's nice, very essential but I can't really use it for raw pics because it lacks the color noise reduction, and for 7D raw images it's really necessary.

I wish to ask you... I feel that when I rise up the shadows  with "other apps" that the shadows tend to be gray with low contrast, while lightroom can light the shadows without wahing out the contrast/saturation. is it just my perception or it's true? thx

Hi, can you suggest to me free apps or pay "once for all" without "monthly subscription" (as lightroom do), that can handle raw pics edit in ipad please?

thx!

hi! does exist a free app/trick to shoot flat picture style on ipad?

thx a lot!

thx for your reply, I already own that card. I have checked the website but I have not understand if it will be compatible, for me would be ok to shoot in 1080p to start. can you help me to understand if it will be compatible please?

will the new blackmagic be compatible with this card? https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B00HUWW8KQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

thx

Recording to a drive via USB-C seems a touch risky to me. The photo where they just have a Samsung drive dangling off the camera - all you’ve got to do is breathe and it will fall out. I suppose a clamp comes with the camera?

This rulez https://www.amazon.com/Self-Fusing-Silicone-Tape-Transparent-1-x-10/dp/B01LZU53UJ/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1523609593&sr=8-9&keywords=silicon+tape

will this camera have focus peaking and zebra?

will be possible to connect one of those HDD to the camera and record on them?

which will be the cleanest high iso? I mean 1600 iso may be clean enough? thx

are 16gb of ram enough to edit video in 4k (for example file video in 4k hdr from the new sony mirrorless)?

is a mechanical HDD (black version) enough fast to work with 4K video files?

will we see soon a cheap camera sensors that solve the problem of rolling shutter?

thx

[enjoy] here it is the solution (thx to the adobe forum):

is it possible to mute the audio from the preview window? when I scroll the images using that button (take a look at the picture), I wish to have no audio. I just wish to mute it, scoll fast, choose the selected scene and put it in the timeline. (but on the timeline I want audio obviously).

talking in general imho the barrels must be blurred and desaturated because they take too much attention.

I attach my Z Crane v1 gimbal to a shock-absorbed boom arm mounted to a vest. Two things happen here. The fourth axis is shock-absorbed, where these 3-axis gimbals totally fall apart the most, and I'm also not wearing out my arms holding up a metal pistol grip all day. Spent muscles are shaky muscles. 

is it possible to develop a fourth axis thas is electronic? that have an electronic brain as the other 3 axis of the gimbals do?  because they may easly put the fourth axis in the handle of the gimbals if so..... and I do not understand why they stopped at 3 axis.... is it a techincal reason or just people do not ask for a butter smooter movements?

No, the GH5, the GH5s, the Sony a7r III, the a7 III and others shoot HLG as well. Vesku was just pointing out that there’s a way to shoot 8-bit HLG on the Panasonic.

so HLG is basically as if the camera is shooting in dual ISO? thx

the problem is that gimbals only stabilise 3 axis, this is not enough cause there is another axis they should stabilise but they don't. that's what a professional steadycam do with the extra arm that came from the chest vest.

now ok there are some exceptions such as the Osmo accessory, and some enormous rig to mount to gimbals as the movi or the ronin, but the true is they should add something new, built in the gimbal itself, to solve this problem imho.

Panasonic GH5 actually can shoot 8 bit HLG 4k 30P when using a special trick. I think it is a bug which allows 8 bit HLG but only in 30P.

When I save 4k 60P in C-memory and then select record mode HEVC the camera uses h.264 8bit 4k 30P 100Mbs but allows HLG.

so the only camera that can shoot in hlg on market is the gh5 and it does it thx to a bug?

I hope my gimbal will be enough to stabilise this

which camera offer hlg 8 or 10 bit? thx
