Have it, love it. Only problem - not always trivial to use a 150mm eq lens anywhere. 🙂 The 3 MFT lenses that, when I browse through my photos and find one that gets my attention, 90% of time was taken with the Oly 75mm 1.8, Oly 54mm 1.8 or the Panasonic 20mm 1.7.

2020, crazy year. Where the discussion about top video mirrorless camera moving from "overrated" to "overheated".

Back to the camera: the E-M10 MK IV was released - so undewhelmed that maybe it do not justifies a separate topic. Get the E-M10 MK III, put the 20mp sensor, a slightly better grip, a flip down screen (useless when filming handheld with a small tripod), slight better AF and...that is.

I doubt it. Sony really does not care for its APS-C line. They are iterating it A6000 body forever, reusing the sensor with horrendous rolling shutter, and never responding to Fuji dominance on the format. It is only a cheaper gateway to E-mount, just there hoping that people jumps after to FF.

Just commented in the Dpreview post exactly what you've said, @Andrew Reid - the R5 was and is marketed as a professional video tool. But I guess that they only could do a recall if the overheating happens constantly in stills modes too. In the photo forums that I've looked, they are giving a damn about video overheating. And stills shooters still (no pun intended) makes the most of the sales.

I think that our house resident genius @BTM_Pix never worked with the Olympus wifi protocols, but I think that he can bring some guidance. Since @leslie is working with Adruino stuff, probably have some programming knowledge to discover a way.

How these phones are working with other camera / movie apps? And the stills raw modes? Would love to see how they work using Filmic Pro.

Indeed. Since I'm probably the sole m4/3 user and a complete amateur, each purchase decision is for my pleasure only - no chance to get the value back with gigs. Don't have interest in full frame cameras, since (as I'm not a professional) I value much more lightness and compactness than pure image quality. Besides low light performance (kind of important to me since I like to do video / stills in concerts - had some of my stills published in some Instagram's bands) and lack of good video AF (less with the PDAF's Olympus), m4/3 have all the quality that I need. But in my view, things are not rosy in the m4/3 camp. Don't see JIP making Olympus relevant again. And each Panasonic's m4/3 offering since the GH5/GH5s/G9 are increasingly disastrous. And no rumours, no new roadmaps, nothing is coming out. Right now, after a boatload of bodies that I've got, I have a E-M10 MK III and a GX9 (except for the 4k crop, is it better than I've expected). Would like to have a E-M1 MK II or III or the E-M5 MK III because PDAF (and which is probably one of the best patents - only could be a strong patent to not be copied - that thay have, that are their long exposure modes with instant preview), but...now, I do not see a future, at least with bigger companies (still think, as @sanveer, that m4/3 stillhave a relevant role in niche video). I'll be offloading all the lenses that I have few use (even maybe my preferred one, the amazing Oly 75mm 1.8), and I see two paths for me: - Move to Fuji, since is the closer to size / weight to m4/3 - albeit my few experiences with Fuji were very strange, most worst results than m4/3 but when it gets better, were MUCH better; - Keep only a minimal m4/3 kit, wait for both Olympus and Panasonic killing their m4/3 lines, and grab bodies / lenses new or slightly used for cheap and use it until everything dies, than choose with the surviving options.

In front is a tally light, no ToF sensor. S1H have the same arrangement, only vertical.

But the rest is EXACTLY the A7R IV - they switched positions between C1 and Rec, and...that it is.

Is his case probably it even overheated sooner, due to the power line to the lens overheating too, trying to keep that bush in his chin in focus at f/1.2.

Always said that I dream a Panasonic GX body with the GH5s sensor, IBIS and PDAF...

Yeah, but my question was about the other makers. Why they not choose other supplier? If BM can finance a newly developed custom sensor for a camera that will generate less revenue than a regular camera (even with the 10k price), why the others still uses Sony sensors?

Fuji have PDAF in their entire lineup (XT-4 to X-A7), yes, Olympus is wrong.

Interesting that Olympus have all in hand to make the perfect vlogger camera - which looks like a target demographic now. Get the E-M10 MK III (or the new IV), put the E-M5 MK III sensor with PDAF, make some work with the AF especially with eye / face detect, correct the auto exposure in video (Camera Conspiracies had a very good video about it) headphone and mic jack. Maybe ditch the EVF if it is not needed by them (I really don't know). Put a flippy screen and a $699 price (or $799 with EVF) and bingo.

This custom sensor is a very interesting story. If BM, a much smaller company than Nikon, Panasonic, Olympus, Fuji, etc...could design and order to manufacture a custom sensor (and, by the description, a VERY sophisticated one), why these companies still are hostages of Sony sensor-wise? (albeit looks like that Nikon started to use Towerjazz sensors)

Z6, yeah, probably. If Nikon enable 4k60 in the Z6s, probably not. The case is that I don't think that Z6 and Z7 sells very well - z5, even canibalizing the Z6, could finally bring more people to Z mount. But for stills, yeah, the z5 is VERY compelling.

Cripple hammer, Nikon version: 1,7x crop in the Nikon Z5's 4k. This is getting ridiculous. If they just had 4k30 full sensor would move a lot of units.

Thanks for the info. 🙂

All corporate jib-jabber; combined with conflicting declarations from Olympus in various media outlets, things still not looking good.

About temps: Lived in Rio de Janeiro for 6 years and in February 40c+ temps are the norm. The right camera in this environment is the one that could be easier to trade for some water with the street vendors. 🙂 (but had great stills form one Carnival taken with a Olympus E-P1 with a Canon FD 50mm)

Ask the wrestler's management to name one of the fighters "Gimbal" and make him your cameraman carrying one between fights. They could even get a sponsorship from Zhiyun or DJI. 🙂 Much less, Amazon had one for $899 other day. Could be found for $999 easily.

Great marketing from Canon - supplying heaters for the homeless in the streets and getting free advertisement . 🙂

What are the issue that you've had with the XT-30 (it have a 10 min time limit in 4k, not)? Have one in my radar, good to have some hands on info.

I'm in the camp that thinks that PDAF and IBIS are very useful - still thinking in get a E-M1 MKII or M5 MK III just because of these two points. Just did not call an Alexa not useful because don''t have both. Could not be useful for me, but don't make the camera unusable.
