    I shot my short film on the 550D. Some shots still look quite amazing:

    Camera operator looks like he just woke up at the waffle house sleeping off a Vegas Bender.

    The star of the show at NAB is not the A7s, the AJA, the Blackmagic Ursa, Studio...
     
    ....it's the Kinefinity Cameras, and they deserve more press than they are getting. Much more.

    This camera reminds me of them Alienware laptops... or an Aventador

    I noticed this aswell.  I still think the 5D raw is better all around in low light BUT the price point for the GH4 + Speedbooster is a tremendous combination that is impossible to ignore.

    5D Mark III is in raw... that is the optimal setting :)

    I'm not that awe struck either, but I'm not judging that fast. That being said, I've never found many video's made with the BMCC 2.5k or BMPCC that I liked. 5D is a different story. This is, I think, the main difference:
     
    BMCC: Made to look like film
     
    5D RAW: 25 frames of actual photographs (which is what the 5D was build for)
     
    It's just personal preference

    To be honest, I'm having a pretty difficult time interpreting your metaphor... But if I understand correctly, you're saying 1080p is a bit on the way out? Otherwise you may need to provide me with a new metaphor :P
     
    I'm worried that the 4K footage will show compression artefacts, even if it's shot at 100mbps.

    OK imagine it as a highway...
     
    5D raw opens up the highway to 6 lanes but there's not really that much traffic, most people stay at home. That's 1080p.
     
    GH4 also opens up the highway to 6 lanes but the lanes are busier. Loads of bastards on the road, some of them annoying and noisy. But wow it's a nice busy road :)

    I haven't tried the GH4 yet, but two points you may take into consideration;
     
    1. I think you can get a speedbooster for your Contax Zeiss lenses. If you do, it makes the crop factor much closer, and the added light sensitivity will likely make up for most of the advantage a larger sensor would have with the same lenses.
     
    2. By downsizing 4K signal to 1080p in post, theoretically it should boost the picture to something like 10bit 422 or better and I would expect it would hold up very well in grading.
