Many asked about how I focus. You are welcome! In this way I get maximum possible focus
 

Waiting weekend to detail test single focus for 35NAP

I have an M5 and is my travel camera mostly for photos because my 1dx and 1dx II are too big for that. I had a M before but the M5 it is much better.
I also use the M5 as remote camera or as wide angle second body for some stuff that I cover.
I have only the 11-22 and the 22 2.0 for the rest I use my EF collection.
 
Regarding video I have used only a couple of time a C camera and it is just ok very similar to the 80D, classical canon 1080p
 
For photos:
The good:
+ photo quality, it is good with good DR finally at 100-400 ISO. Classical Canon sensor so I process the Raws as I do with the one for 1Dx. M5 more noisy but to be expected
+ ergonomics
+ touch screen
+ touch screen even when off can be used to change focus point while looking in to EVF, very handy
+ remote port
+ 7/9 fps
+ DPAF very accurate and works even low light. Fast but not blazingly fast.
+ size
+ 11-22 is very very good with IS and tiny and quite affordable. This is why I use it a lot as a second body for wide-angle shoots.
+ 22 2.0 is also very good and super tiny and cheap. A bit slow on the AF side but still usable
+ adapter works well and most EF lens AF work well and quite fast. I have used quite a bit the 24 1.4 and 50 1.2 on it and with great success. I also use the 8-15 fisheye on it quite often
+ wifi
The bad:
- small buffer in RAW
- takes a lot of time to clear the buffer
- much slower than the 1dx in operations like picture review, etc…
- EVF is not great but I hate EVF so maybe I’m not the right guy to comment on it
- no live view while taking burst. A no go for action/sport
- no fully silent mode (fully electronic shutter). Why why and one more time why?!?
 
For video:
+ DPAF very similar to the 1DXII
+ 60fps same quality as 30fps
+ canon colors
- no 4k
- classical soft canon 1080
- less bitrate than the 80D
 
I would not recommend it as primary camera for video there are better choice in the price range.
Where it shines is a travel, backup and eventually B/C camera for canon user thanks to the tiny size but full support including good AF with the EF lens. If my primary system would not be a canon I would not have brought the M5 but for my need is quite good. Of course if it would have had 4k 30p even only at 4:2:0 100 mbits would have been much better for video.

Here is a music video that I shot last month using the GH5 with 35mm and 50mm SLR Magic anamorphic primes. VLog L. 4K 8 bit. IBIS was a nice feature to go w/ the lenses whenever I needed handheld. I'm praying for in-camera anamorphic desqueeze from Panasonic this year!
 

We just completed a 3hr/3part documentary here at work using Resolve.  It's definitely up to the job now.   There are still some issues, but overall it's there. 
 
Panasonic's color is now extremely close to Canon if you like the Canon look.  It's much harder to get Sonys to look like Canon.    I wouldn't hesitate to use a C200 and GH5 on the same shoot. 

Why would you buy a c200 if that is your need though?
This cam seems more like a music video, short narrative setup... Raw will be used alot. 
Now... The c200 could have been an amazing run and gun... But in typical fashion, canon have ballsed it up a bit.

I don't see any real reason to look at GH5 at all, when there are SONY a6300/6500. Bigger sensor, less noise, S-LOGs included, autofocus, and much cheaper. just for 10bit 4:2:2 400Mbit/s? Not for me.

This camera takes SDXC, and let's get real for a minute: raw is wholly unnecessary for 98% of the camera's target market. 
The Varicam LT may be 'only' a few thousand more - but Starr factoring P2 cards and the price jumps drastically. And since when does the LT do raw internally..? 
The FS7 doesn't even have a proper EVF. Stick a loupe on the LCD and voila - you've got the same solution as the FS7. 
You know the URSA Mini also doesn't come with an EVF? And really, the 'back of the body' EVFs on the C series and FS5 are next to useless.
But sure, feel free to denigrate a camera based on the cost of wholly unnecessary accessories

The C200 is in reality a crippled camera that aside from raw (and let's wait and see how well/badly it is implemented) has a shitty shit shit codec inside it.

Yup, that's the major "if" at this point. I've learned not to trust paper specs. The proof is in the image. 

Boy do people like to complain. A camera is announced two days ago with a feature and you expect every other camera to have it? We're also talking different recording media than the C200 and Blackmagic. Different ecosystems can support different things. It seems like they're trying to push as much into this ecosystem as possible, while keeping the "real" costs of a full kit as manageable as possible. And everyone's losing it over the internal raw of C200, yet the reality is that 98% of the time that raw is used will be in a controlled environment where external monitors are the norm and an external recorder isn't a big deal. And if you start factoring in the difference in SSD costs vs cfast... well, cost-wise the playing field starts to even. The weirder thing would be building a small camera that's perfect for doc and indy uses, shoving raw internal into it, an old ass 8 bit codec, and nothing in between... and no way to get non-raw 10bit... even from the output...

The best optical  standard zoom I've used so far is the Olympus Zuiko Top Pro 4/3 14-35mm F2.0
Second would be the 24-90 F2.8-4.0 Leica Vario for the SL.

The front of the HCDNA does not rotate, the Kowa to the Ultron with the RedStan clamp (with small srews).

Yes, less is more. The lenght is not so much, the weight is more. That makes the combo also more stable. The Ultrom works fine with the Ultron. But be carefull, there only 3 little screws on the back of the lens that holds your camera. You cannot walk aroud, you need a small rig. I don't have helios lenses and at this moment no ND filter. Step by step ... Soon I will sell another lens and then I can spend a little for something news.

The complete setup with hardcoreDNA (HCDNA + C35 + Ultron 40mm + NX1). For the mic I am using Audio Technica mixed with other parts of VideoMicro. Needed only a minimalistic rig.
..... Time to make films

 
 
 
 

When the C100 was introduced some 4 years ago it was 52 000 swedish to buy the body only. Today I see them go for as low as 12 000 on the used market.
So.. in 2021 a C200 for roughly $2-2500... or maybe even lower with the way the market is going and how saturated it gets.

Another effect might be a massive drop in the used prices of rivals like the Ursa, FS5, FS7, LS300, etc. 

I imagine alot of RED's budget pre-orders are being cancelled today.

Does it have positive locking EF mount? Can't tell from the pictures but for 9 grand it's mandatory if you ask me.

My video of Patagonia with the GH5
 

Kholi finished the Comet Color LUT for V Log. It's not supposed to emulate film or any other camera. Just a specific look, similar to the one's he made for Blackmagic.
 

So buy ND filters... there are many to choose from for the Mavic.

+100!!!
in camera LED screen or EVF desqueeze would just be one of those out of the ballpark features!!!

Ken, but can anyone take that guy for serious? ; )
1) What sharpness settings to begin with?
2) Most part of his footage is HFR 1080p;
3) YT comments disabled;
4) Look the way he shows off the wife...
As much as his clueless lighting and hablando del rey de Roma, things really require much more effort (I'd dare to add my comment as inferred above-posted).

Yeah, seems the GH5 is still struggling with yellow/orange/green, which it always seems to exaggerate, especially at somewhat higher ISOs. The BM is much less biased... a whole lot smoother in the tones. Still though, not a bad job by the GH5. With very slight corrections you can beautify that shot quite easily. Skintones on Panasonics have come quite the way, I must say though, quite the improvement there.

I was thinking about moving to Resolve, some time ago, but it didn't have some of the features I needed for editing. Premiere is unstable sometimes, but Resolve just didn't offer the features. I'm intereseted if it does now. I'd really appreciate if someone could give ma an answer about these things:
 
1. Does Resolve have decent audio features like compressor, limiter, expander?
2. Does Resolve have saveable presets of effects, which can be dropped on clips anytime?
3. Customizable keyboard shortcuts?
4. Customizable window layout?
5. Maybe keyboard shortcuts for applying effects or effect presets? (Premiere doesn't have this afaik, would be a very welcome feature for me)
