  1. Our @Mattias Burling already gave the firmware a spin. That Eterna colors are really beautiful.
  2. Always thought this way about my LX100 - a lens with a free camera. Have to use it back to tinker a little bit with photo quality - always have the impression that the lens is a bit soft. Unfortunately the video quality is now lagging behing the GX85 - G9 - G85 - GH5; the noise levels are from the GH4 generation. If it could be updated to the GX85 level, would be amazing.
  3. You could compare camera+lenses sizes (some of them) in the same Camerasize site. - Go to https://camerasize.com/compact/ - In the menu bar at the right of the combo box which you choose the cameras, click on the last icon (camera+lens) - Choose a camera and click the "+" button - The camera body will appear in top view, and over it there is a link "click to add a lens" - Choose the lens that you want - Add a 2nd camera body and repeat the process. You can copy the generated URL that your browser will show in the URL bar when you have the comparison you desired and share it, like this: https://camerasize.com/compact/#698.613,698.366,ha,t
  4. "The camera achieves HD Tier 1 because of the sensor size, while smaller than the preferred 1” size, is greater than the minimum-acceptable 2⁄3” size. The wording of R.118 is not completely consistent on this because testing is required whatever the sensor size, but the camera passes the tests anyway." Huh?
  5. Dialogue in Panasonic headquarters meeting: (Manager) Well, Cinelike-D and Cinelike-V should stay available only for our bigger body cameras... (Engineer) Ahn...there is a problem... (Manager) What? (Engineer) A guy in a site was messing with our wifi transmission protocol and discovered a way to enable it in our smaller cameras. (Manager) Oh, fuck. Where? (Engineer) Looks like a Canon site by their name, EOSHD. @BTM_Pix is the handle of the guy. (Manager) Can't we disable it with a firmware update? (Engineer) We can...but since we usually only release updates to fix errors in our smaller cameras, and not to improve them like that Fujifilm assholes, probably will not be a good idea. (Manager) How did that happened? (Engineer) An internship guy was assigned to handle the wifi protocols and... (Manager) Amazing job, geniuses. Now we have to enable it to not look selfish... The engineer was moved to Panasonic's washer division. ================================================================= New firmware v1.1 [Cinelike D] and [Cinelike V] have been added to [Photo Style]. [Flash Mode] can now be set to [Forced Flash Off] for the built-in flash. http://av.jpn.support.panasonic.com/support/global/cs/dsc/download/fts/dl/gx9.html
  6. In fact just bought a very battered (but working) S5Pro just to see if that CCD colors justify the hype. @Mattias Burling could contribute somewhat in this topic (if he comes back).
  7. New account, 3 posts...hope that it will not be a 4k movie of Rick Astley (or some DNG from a NX1 Raw).
  8. For size comparisons, it is in Camerasize already. http://camerasize.com/compare/#782,727
  9. Very good option, but in my short experience with USB-C cables (only have a tablet with it - my older computers are still running fine), it disconnects much more easily than HDMI. A locking solution will be needed, I guess.
  10. Probably not - still have the half of the price factor.
  11. Curious about the weight, not mentioned anywhere.
  12. Feelworld F7s, maybe? (don't know if it is good, or TOO cheap) http://www.feelworld.cn/ShowInfo.aspx?id=510&py=FEELWORLD-F7S-7-Inch-3G-SDI-4K-HDMI-On-camera-Monitor-IPS-Full-HD-1920x1200-Rugged-Aluminum-Housing
  13. BM cameras don't have AF. I thought the original BMPCC have, but it was very slow - the "focus" button on it is not an AF?
  14. Guess that AF will be bad as CDAF usual - good for S-AF only.
  15. Looks like that is it not so big at the end (only chunky):
  16. Any other company except Sony and Panasonic(?) are making 4/3 sized sensors?
  17. Yep, if it works right and have the same (or near) GH5s low light capabilities, GH5s is dead. Probably better color science, 4k RAW , XLR input for HALF of the price.
  18. Fuji version rigged and with lens: (talking seriously, specs for the price looks amazing)
  19. Looks like that the audio preamp problems of the BMPCC were not solved.
  20. And indeed a lot of filmmakers spend a ton of cash buying the Canon's C line - which makes us to come back to the first two posts. People still buy Canons a lot - why they will change? They will only change when the revenue starts to drop - could be the case, since last Canon's interviews mention mirrorless cameras a lot. I see two possible outcomes: - They are smart and have mirrorless prototypes under works for a lot of time. In this meantime, the market had matured, the desired features are more or less known, and they can release cameras for each segment (segmentation will never go away) much more focused. - They still afraid of canibalizing DSLR's and Cinema C line and really are behind.
  21. Never had serious problems with dust with my m4/3 - but I'm an amateur almost using the cameras in run and gun, and always can kind of protect the open mount when changing lenses, guess it is not so easy to do it in rigged cameras. But I've always asked myself why mirrorless manufacturers do not implement a function (that could be assigned to a button, for example) that closes the shutter when you wish to change lenses. Maybe they are afraid of shutter blades damaging?
  22. How HLG works in 8-bit? (I think that being 8-bit only and the lack of 4k60 are the only "flaws" of this camera - but I think that both points are totally expected in this price point in a FF camera. Sony nailed it.)
