4K crop is 1.74x according to http://www.newsshooter.com/2016/08/25/hands-on-preview-canon-5d-mkiv-has-4k-internal-recording-with-a-1-74x-crop/

I didn't realize the Zhiyun Crane is available from B&H....I thought it had to be ordered from China.

Can anyone recommend a Manfrotto/501 compatible quick release plate that allows the camera to be removed from the top, instead of having to slide it out from the front or back?  I want to be able to remove the camera body from by rig without first having to remove the battery plate or mattebox.

perhaps this?

I hope this somehow translates to the 1Dx-II getting Canon Log, or 1Dc-II being announced at IBC.

$4,999 today

I just checked and the C100 was announced August 29, 2012 and the C100ii was announced October 22, 2014 so it certainly seems possible.

I'm very tempted by 1DxII, but am keeping an open mind as Photokina approaches.

Anyone know how Sony (A7sII, A7rII) autofocus compares to Canon's dual pixel in speed and accuracy?

Ebrahim, would you ask your contact at Canon if they're considering offering CLog on the 1DxII as a paid option?

What I would do:

• wait a couple weeks....IF Apple announces new laptops at their WWDC, hopefully recharging will be via USB-C

          (then there should be many more battery options than currently with MagSafe)

• get a 12.9" iPad Pro and connect via TwoMonUSB

          (four speakers are built into iPad Pro 12.9" or 9.7", but only 9.7" has DCI-P3 gamut)

Hoping more Nano USM lenses are available soon:

What's the likelihood of CLog coming to 1DxII in a [paid] firmware update?

I learned a few things today attending local Canon 1DxII event:

• confirmed that 1Dc is still in production

• face detection locks on closest face when there's multiple faces

• touchscreen is usually disabled when cable is plugged into hdmi port,

  but setting in hdmi menu allows touchscreen and hdmi monitor to both be active

How is the AF of A7sII and A7rII compared to 1DxII below:
