Here is an interview with a guy that tested the preproduction model, he has a lot of praise for IBIS, especially paired with the new stabilized 12-100 zoom.
 

Yet a gimbal adds quite some bulk for run & gun. Got one, sold it again. I like my setup small, so I agree, IS is quite important - to me.

Hope they sent you one, liked your review of the e-m5 alot.
I had the first em5 and the Pen-f for home movies and absolutely loved the ibis and colors. Only problem with the original em5 was 30p only and moire. The Pen didnt have a mic jack.
The em1ii wont be as gorgeous as the pen-f (which is straight out a piece of jewelry). And bigger/pricier than the em5ii. But I might have to get it.

There is indeed a lot to like about this camera in the video department :-)
4K (and not just UHD) is a big one for starters....

Oh boy! I was afraid they were going to put all the focus on stills and keep its video capabilities on the very down-low... (keeping the E-M5-line more video centric), but it seems, on paper, this might have it all... the only thing I'm scared for now is like crazy shot ruining moiré or something. This seems like a hybrid dream. Hopefully I don't have to wake up to a cruel reality. I'm loving it! New sensor tech. Superfast readouts/processing. 4K. Dual cardslot, improved AF, vari-angle screen, mic in+headphone jack, timecode even, flat profile, legendary Oly stabilization. It's all there. The only reason to get the GH5 is the cinema application shooting with stuff like LOG and anamorphic ratios and de-sequeeze. Super exciting!

As an owner of 2 Oly cams, I've been sitting around trying to be patient as they play catch up with their video capabilities.  I still amaze myself how much I like using the EM5II.  
They may or may not meet and exceed Pany competition, but as long as they're in the ball park with what they're offering, I'll lean their way.  Can't help it, just like how they've designed and built their gear.

Fun day today huh gang

built-in 3 stage ND and auto ND function! Take that XC10/RX10 with only 1 weak 1/8 ND
Wondering if the HFR still have the same limitation ie can't focus/zoom once recording started

I love Panasonic. Feel like I want them to have every penny I spend on cameras and lenses. Most intersting part for me will be to see if the 200 mbps internal recording is enough to make up for the small sensor. As that will bode well for the camera most of us are really waiting for. 

Finally arrived from Park Cameras today after they kept inexplicably delaying its dispatch!
I've sold all my other cameras now except the Nikon D5500 so can't do any direct comparisons but the rolling shutter at 4k definitely looks better than it did on the a6300
Some quirks I've found so far:
Dynamic Range and Noise Reduction options are locked to defaults in video mode. When in manual focus mode, can autofocus using the AF-L button before recording but not during.  Can't set a custom whitebalance in movie mode (as in, the mode where you point the camera at a white/grey object).  No bitrate options. All recordings are at 100mbps. That's it for now. Looking forward to doing some shooting with this camera! 

Zeiss's coating looks like more purple and Moller more yellow.  No preference to me.  They all have good flare.
May be not very rare.  Need to use keyword "anamorphot" to find it.   I just bought it.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/401180992655 

The Pocket is in desperate need of a refresh. I don't know their sales figures, but I bet they've sold as many of the Pocket as they have every other camera they've made combined. 

The Acros film simulation looks impressive.

Love the bokeh.

Thank you for watching

I will give your regards to Vova  Now his brother Arthur help me, because he have a lathe )))

Sigma said they expect their lenses to be under $5,000, which makes me think they'll be in the same ballpark as Tokina. They do look very nice. But I think I'd rather have the $850-900 versions and save some money.

Vova's the man! Fantastic work.

Hi! Yes, 2x, but in this distance (1m ~ 3 ft) stretching less than 2x. Now I use this construction. Setup written in video.
But it's very heavy for me and my back, if I don't use a tripod :-( but the cheapest solution  I'm working on a lightweight design and single focus (make from 2x to 1.33x, if possible) for this lens.

I really do think the GH4 looks the best, and that surprises me. I figured I would go A7rii, 5d iv, and then GH4. But it ended up being the exact opposite.

I really like to shoot anamorphic and i spend a lot of time doing little researches, which leads me to invention that i want to introduce. I've learn a lot of information from this subforum, so i want to share my idea here. I believe it gonna be a second breath to independent anamorphic solutions.
So I came up with what anamorphic lenses was originally created for: using whole image sensor area with benefits. Back then there was a film and now we have a 16:9 standart for video and to use it properly id suggest a simple technology: stack together two anamorphic lenses and rotate a camera 90 degree. And then applied 4x coefficient to 9:16 sensor area that results in 2,25:1 ratio:

Of course if u shoot 4K RAW loosing some data is'nt a problem: u're still end up with proper resolution, color and details and even have nice possibility to recompose frame horizontally. But for 1080p recording cameras or 8-bit codecs loosing some data from sensor not the case, is'nt it?) So what do we have:
- 4320x1920 (for 1080p) and 8640x3840 (for 4K) de-squeezed interpolated image that can be downscaled to 1920x850(840) with some color and sharpness benefits
- stack of two anamorphic lenses required longer focal (about 150mm for sankor16f/rectimascope48 stack for FF) but with 4x it comes to pretty the same FOV as 85mm/2x on FF. It also requires smaller aperture to get same DOF. So it results in sharper image with same DOF (multiplied by lack of loss resolution in the camera). Of course increased number of glasses results in some lights losses, about 1 stop i think, maybe less.
- one of the nicest feature of my scheme: it kills rolling shutter effect. I develope idea of that anamorphic solution with a7s model in mind, it's a great camera which suffer from well knowed issue: terrible RS. But when you rotate sensor and applied 4x stack of anamorhic you decreased RS effect in the final image by 4 times (since RS effect appears on horizontal which is became vertical). From now on forget about RS)
- and one issue: its getting even harder to look at monitor: now its 4 times squeezed image. Honestly i always like to shoot anamorphic without desqueezing function that gives me some abstraction and somehow another vision of composition and im not suffering much from 4x squeezing to. Its hard to use monitor to nail a focus but easier with viewfinder. Actually i send a letter to atomos with asking for some cooperation here but got no respond (maybe a reason is my broken english, who know : )
Of course stack of two anamorphots is loosing any ability to focus, but it working well with diopters like usual combo of taking lens and ana - just set them all to infinity.
And im asking here for some help. Im already tested my prototype (later im gonna do post about it) with usual diopters and it worked. But to use it properly i need some variable diopters and for now i can afford only SLR Rangefinder, which have not very high perfomance. But since aperture at my taking lens starts with 3,5 it may work. I know here's a guy, Tito, with a lot of anamorphic stuff, i will ask him for test, but maybe anyone have opportunity to try it to?
PS I know my English is bad so i provided some pic for u guys)

Absolutely adore this look. Great stuff.

something like that (also u can make some covering to avoid reflections and atached it to front glass)
 

We will never bow to you, J'f'r!
