    wolf33d got a reaction from Dave Maze in Panasonic seems to be announcing something "BIG" on December 15   
    He got fired from Pana ambassador program after he leaked the GH5S lol. 
    I cannot believe GH5s is only a vlog update. Wait, wait. Remember @Neumann Films video's title "the best vlog ever" .... What a surprise. 

    Casey wants a good AF. He spoke about that in this video and all the time before. So that tells me 95% sure GH5s won't change AF anyway.

    Lol Seriously? 

    I hate buying let's say an A7SII right now when we know the III is around the corner. But not buying a camera 2 weeks after release because the next one is coming 2 years after? 
    You will never buy, cause the V is coming 2 years after the IV and so on.

    It would still miss IBIS, would still miss 4K60P unfortunately.

    That's awesome. 60P 10 bit is really great. 1080 @240 is also great.

    Since this is a new different sensor, having Phase Detection AF would be EVEN more great. I am not buying it without that, even if it would do 4K10bit @ 240p (well ok I would...)

    wolf33d got a reaction from UncleBobsPhotography in Favorite focal for Gimbal use   
    Having lens IS or IBIS helps a lot. Even with perfect camera balance on a Gimbal, having both stabilization gives you better result. Many YouTube video prove that and experienced it myself. Even more true with longer lens.
    Now be careful with the Crane M. It stabilizes less well than the normal version even for 500g camera. Now if your camera has good IBIS like GH5, I think you are good to go with the M

    I sold the GH5 because of AF, it does not compare to A6500. 
    My point of view is that Canon DPAF is the golden standard, it just works and is reliable enough for pro use. 
    Then you have Sony A9 level. It is very good, just one step under DPAF but it works well and is enough for gimbal work. 

    GH5 is not enough for gimbal work from my use. To many shots were it would hunt or just loose focus for 2-3seconds, and even when it is spot on you have some micro hunting happening in the bokeh. This is due to contrast af technology. 
    I guess Panasonic did a great job for CAF type, they just used the wrong technology.

    wolf33d got a reaction from IronFilm in Fuji X-H1: new APSC video oriented camera   
    Fuji X-H1 is coming. It will have 4K for sure, maybe 60p. F-LOG and IBIS are confirmed. Sounds good to me. 
    Fuji color is great so is Fuji ergonomics and lenses. 

    If the Fuji X-H1 has 4K60P, IBIS, F-LOG and a good AF, it will be a great competitor to GH5s and A7SIII. Maybe the sweet middle between the 2 later. 
    Basically a A6500 but better (ergonomics, colors, lenses...).

    Casey switched from Canon and Sony to using the Panasonic GH5 almost 90% of the time. He still has other cameras but it's the GH5 that really turned things around.
    Canon failed to give YouTubers like him what they need... 4K, small file sizes, articulated screen, all in the same camera... so the 5D Mk IV for all it's Dual Pixel AF goodness languishes in the corner as do the 1080p Canons - Big up-swing in noticeable quality when Casey switched to the GH5's 10bit 4K.
    Hopefully though, the number of out of focus shots in Casey's video where the camera selects the background instead of the subject will whip Panasonic into action to sort out some form of Dual Pixel AF competitor technology. Or maybe Casey doesn't mind... vlogging is a raw style, doesn't need to be formal and correct all the time. I do think AF in video mode is the next thing for Panasonic to get right though. It's a priority in my mind.

    If what is real? We have 0 spec lol. 
    The fact that the sensor (a sensor for security cameras by the way, nobody said the GH5s will have that sensor) does 4K120p does not mean the camera will do 4K120p at all. 
    We have seen many many times capable sensor with a different output because of processing power or heat management. 
    So we have nothing on the GH5s appart that it will be more low light oriented. 

    But yeah if it does 4K120p with good AF and good lowlight, I am too getting one. If not then Sony will have my money with the A7SIII cause I am sure it will have A9 AF and FF is a bonus.

    After watching a lot of videos, G9 AF is not that good. In many cases it fails even more than GH5 when tracking. 
    My minimum acceptable level for video AF is A6500, or A9.

    HANDS DOWN the D750 over the 5D3 for stills. Dynamic range on the 5D3 is a joke. 
    Your canon lens are a no problem situation. Just easily sell them and buy used nikon lens instead. 

    I do not understand why all the internet makes a big deal about being invested already to a lens system. You are not being married to your lenses guys..... 
    I have changed 4-5 times of "system" and selling a few lenses has never been an issue.

    wolf33d got a reaction from Beritar in New Panasonic G9 - multiaspect sensor?   
    Depends on your need. I guess for 95% of filmmakers, GH5 is definitely better. 

    I am in the market for a 4K60p small camera and not more than $2K. The pros of GH5 over G9 for video you mentionned: 
    VLOG: I do not use it in 4K60p 8bit
    HLG: N/A in 4K60
    ALLI and 10bit : N/A
    Unlimited recording time: I never record for more than 1min
    6K anamorphic: N/A for 4K60p 
    Master Pedestal: never used that 

    G9 on the other hand has Better AF / Better IBIS and less expensive. I will take that any day thanks. 

    Again, depends on what you need.

    Lot better image quality (colors + lowlight + clarity) on the D850 VS A7R2 and GH5. Apparently AF in video is also better than those two. 
    Impressive.

    It's just too bad there is no 10bit and no All i for 4k60p. I film everything at 60p to have the luxury to slowdown in post a shot I did not know I would slow down when shooting. 
    Using this camera for 4k60p only and not benefitting from All I and from 10bit is such a shame.

    wolf33d got a reaction from Nikkor in D850 released. Nothing to see here, move along   
    Stills camera = 100 times less good than D850 (less dynamic range, less mpx, less good AF system ( and -4ev on the D850), no BSI sensor, less features like the new focus stacking,...)
    Video camera = horribly not efficient codec, super high video file size for 1.7 crop (not S35 actually) and basically no video specs at all VS let's say a GH5. 
    All that for a premium price tag. 
     
    Anyone in this word who does not own any lens, I see 0 reason to buy a Canon 5D when looking to get FF. If you are going to shoot stills you buy the D850, if video only probably something like GH5 or A7SII and if you shoot both you will probably go to Sony.
