What I mean is it is confine to a few threads on reduser, but doesn't spread out the the wider world of the internet etc Unlike BMD UM4.6K which every time you turn your head there is someone else there complaining about it, or repeating what someone else said (or repeating repeating repeating what someone else said about it!). Maybe it is because BMD is making many many more sales than RED, thus the problems might only be at the same rate, but because there are so so many more models out there you hear more about it.

If you want smaller then the Terra 5K/6K is only about 5D size! :-o And if you want a great stills camera the D750 will be available for a dirt dirt cheap price by the time a ML raw hack for 5Dmk4 arrives.

Agreed, I want to see a Rokinon Cine DS 18-85mm T4 S35 lens at a rock bottom low price!

I don't understand the talk about 5Dmk4 and ML raw because: A) it won't happen any time soon. Expect 2017 minimum before it is out and solidly working great. B) the price is insane if you're getting it just for raw, you're creeping up close to KineFinity Terra 5K or URSA Mini 4.6K pricing!

Maybe BMD forums are much much more open about discussing this? While reduser shuts this down hard. I hang around the RED forums a little, not much but more than than BMD forums, & I'm very unaware of these Raven issues!! Yet it is completely impossible to be unaware of the BMD issues even if you never visit their forums! I'm guessing BMD the company and its users are much more open in discussing it, vs RED (the company and owners?) tend to brush it under the rug?

I'd say C300II is only selling out now thanks to the price drop. Go back in time a bit and it wasn't.

Well today its competition is not the BMPC4K but the URSA Mini 4K, which is also $3K. Thus for the AJA CION to be competitive if released today I'd say it possibly needs to be priced below the URSA Mini 4K?? And we know that is never going to happen!

I tonight made the F5 I'm using shoot 4K ***FOR FREE****! ;-) :-D http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?148795-Canon-s-new-C700&p=1659639&viewfull=1#post1659639 Yet another report that C300mk2 is renting poorly (in regards to the likelihood the C700 will be a hot rental item):

This is at best a "me too camera" from Canon, that is late to the party. I think we'll see hefty discounts for the C700 in a year-ish, just like with the C300mk2 (which also was too little and too late by Canon).

Seems the reason I've been bashing my head against the wall for the last few hours is the md5 checksum tool I was using gave the md5 hash in uppercase but F5 only recognises the checksum hash in lowercase!!!! arrrghhhh, a hideously subtle bug that took me forever to discover after a million other dead ends

Get your hat ready Jax!

I'm somewhat stumped here. As the instructions say: But that is EXACTLY the same as what I see from my saved 001.ALL file!! :-/ :-( Oh, and I can update my earlier comment with another difference... you don't get to see 4K playback internally! :-( Though you can see the thumbnails. Thus I am using a Samuari Blade set to Sony trigger, as the easy no fuss way of having playback on set.

Maybe the GH5's "6K" only applies to when recording in 4:3 mode for anamorphic shooters. And we need to wait for the GH6 to see "true" 6K. This seems very reasonable to me.

New news, it is shipping :-D http://www.newsshooter.com/2016/08/31/birtv-2016-kinefinitys-6k-terra-starts-shipping-and-gets-new-accessories/

I think the AJA Cion might maybe have had a shot at being an acceptable "good" camera if it had been priced the same as a BMPC4K. But it wasn't, it was way way waaaaay higher in price!

WTF... so so wrong. Unless you are claiming what I did today was impossible? As I was just today recording 'internally' with a Sony F5 in 4K 16bit raw, name any Canon which can do that for such a low price? NONE can!! So pfffttttt... blew right past that measly 12bit and doing 16bit raw! ;-) Ha! No Canon, at any price, can do that internally.

What happened when you looked at the footage?

RIP Samsung, you were way ahead of your time. Too smart for your own good!

Errr... the DJI X5R is Us $3.3K with expensive media!! And was even much more expensive when it first came out! & is an extremely no frills camera vs an URSA Mini. No pro audio (its fan is too noisy anyway), no SDI out, etc I'd never think of a X5R as an ultra good value camera like I would with a BMD product.

Got to remember the bias they have when you ask if a camera is "popular". It isn't in their best interests to make you think a camera is unpopular and to thus make you reconsider renting it! Plus even if they're telling the truth that the C300II rents just as much as the FS7, the fact they have to first slash the rental price of a much more expensive camera down to near the level of the FS7 shows that it isn't really as popular.

Very good spotting! I'd assumed it was just one audio input for XLR and nothing else but this does indicate a handle

AJA Cion failed due to the (initially) very high price of the camera (relative to the BMPC4K) and very high priced proprietary media. Also didn't they initially make it PL only? Another dumb move if it was ever going to have a broad uptake. Should've had an EF option much earlier.
