@Matthew Hartman im having trouble understanding what his age has to do with anything. We are inquiring if its real. There’s no age limit to provide proof of product. If this is another NX1 raw hoax we will kindly & quietly move on regardless of the user posting it.

like anything in life if you make a claim provide evidence to support said claim.

I wish you all the best with that man ! Raw for the nx1 would be dope. Noise reduction at 1600 iso ? Poof. Gone with RAW. That would put the nx1 on top of the hacked 5d ?? @Arikhan

Here is a screenshot from an early release. 

UHD | 25fps | 1/50 | Manual WB (blue hour like human eye sees it) | Zeiss O 28mm 1.4 at F7.1 | edit in post: slight WB correction | File edited with Premiere CC | Workflow recommended by @Mattias Burling --> here <--

 

Dope ! When can we see it in motion ? Is it possible to upload a dng ?

Still no screenshots / updates on this hack ? 

@Matthew Hartman I kinda was the one who started beating the drums for the nx1 hack and the whole thread dedicated to it ??‍♂️

we spoke about a hack numerous times in the petition for an nx1 hack thread and it never materialized. The furthest the hack went was an increase in bitrate and how you load it. After that there were no real developments on the nx1 so I got rid of mine. This is why I am very cynical about rumors of another nx1 raw. Seeing is believing for me so im waiting for someone to present something a little more solid than “its coming”. Not being combative or anything but this has been spoken about before 

No ! This means WAR !!!! Jk We can tag team our ebay search ? @vaga

jeebus. better snap up an nx1 while u can huh ?

If this is true im doing some serious ebay hunting

Can we get a screenshot ? A link ? Something ? This has been rumored since I’ve had the NX1 like two years ago. I wanna see proof

@Trek of Joy dude I had to attach a battery and thumb grip just to use my a6500 handheld. These cams are getting way too small

Not bad.  The 1080 does upscale to 4k nicely.  Here is a 3k to 4k upscale i did awhile back.  I still haven't found a camera that can match the color, detail, motion cadence of the 5DMK3 in raw unless I want to spend a fortune.  Canon could really truly rule everyone if they wanted.  It's such a tragedy.  :-(
 

 

Holy shit ! 0:24 seconds in and im already blown away by the detail !!!! What lenses did you use ?

WHAT ?!

@BTM_Pix lmaaaaao if anyone is still listening to that scam artist they need to go drink bleach 

@brianwahl you have me on the fence about getting rid of my a6500 cause LOG can be problematic. What’s really making me stick around with Sony is its compatibility with ACES which imo takes SLOG to another level. I hope Fuji gets ACES support for FLOG ! Otherwise the X-H1 is looking like the ideal SOOC solution for quick turnover times. The X-h1 would save me so much time and $ doing postproduction work for clients

Fuji just dropped an Eterna lut for FLOG. Wow. Safe to say they are kinda serious about this video thing ? I smell a gh5 like major firmware update if this thing keeps up the pace in sales

@webrunner5 VERY true. Almost every camera out right now even with their ups and downs shoot phenomenally

@brianwahl I’ve been using it as an A cam because I really like the look the focal reducers add to the a6500 image. That and the 6K to 4K image was a big win for me. I was hoping the fuji would blow the a6500 out the water in image quality but it looks like sony is still on top

The kids just look too red to me. But you are right different strokes. It just seems to me Fuji has taken a wrong turn from back in the days of the Fuji Finepix S2 Pro. Now that was color. This new one looks Digital as hell. But to me after the went from CCD sensors they all went down hill. The Original Olympus E1 was just beautiful also, and it was just like 5.1 MP. Very few new cameras other than Canon, have looked very good to me now. Well the Nikon D750 is great color wise. I guess it is their softness and CS that makes it happen with the Canon's..

Now my A7s is just funky looking to be honest, but I like it. So like you said, different strokes.

I wish I could get my hands on this stuff so I can experiment ! I know nothing about ccd cameras but I love the lo-fi look !

Ha! Well I'm the guy without the huge beard :). The drone was a rental just for that trip where we did some video work with a few other companies. And I definitely can't keep both the X-H1 and the a9 - one of them has to go within a month. I do need two cameras for a lot of the work I do, so having two X-H1's would be a nice bonus rather than matching the a6500 and the a9 all the time.

Are you leaning towards the a6500 or the fuji ?

You have to be more selective with your staging when working with cameras that have limited dynamic range. It's about knowing your tools and how best to use them, instead of trying to force them to do something they weren't designed to do and then blaming it.  

This my friend should be in the filmmaking bible. It doesn’t get any realer than that.

Once you work within the limitations of a camera the results are magic.

@Django hmm thats good to know ! Im not a gimbal guy but that helped me understand why people are going ape shit for AF. Can’t MF on a gimbal !  The increase in quality with bitrate is a good sign to me...I think im going to give it another couple months before I decide if im picking one up. One of the things that has been keeping me with my sony is the fact that the iq is awesome, my body doesn’t overheat and there is widespread support for slog not flog. For photography there is a lot of stuff for fuji but flog and fuji in general has little to no support for obvious reasons in the film community. Hopefully that changes within the next few months and we get some good luts made for this thing

@webrunner5 I think the draw for me is because I know how hard it is to grade both light and dark complexions in one shot. If Fuji engineers got that right in camera then that saved me a couple of hours of grading. As far as the image looking unlike real life I wasn’t really paying attention to that. It looked very bright and contrasty on my monitor and that is a look I love. The last thing I want my footage to look like is real life. I think the big draw behind cameras from different manufacturers is their choice in color pallette plus color is subjective and varies dramatically from person to person due to our differences in mental perception and physical makeup of our eyes. Your impression of “real life” colors will look different from the next man’s. Pleasing, vibrant, artistic colors is what I am after.

@brianwahl sheesh ! Those skintones man...they look damn good ! The biggest giveaway that this camera handles skintones incredibly well is the fact that both the darker and lighter complexions in the same shot looked NATURAL. I’ve been looking for a camera that I can get good SOOC footage with because honestly grading can be time consuming and lately I notice clients are becoming more focused on quick turnover times. You think its a good idea to make the switch from Sony to Fuji ? 

Damn if I needed AF as bad as you guys do I’d be out of canera options ? is it too much to ask to see if the camera is any good when taking the traditional route and manual focusing ? Im still one of those oddballs that thinks AF is too early and too unreliable of a feature to be used in the field. What the computer wants to focus on and what I want to focus on in a shot...lets just say we don’t always agree...even in stills LOL. 

I really want to know about the more critical things about the camera like is the image prone to macroblocking ? Is there heavy noise reduction like the NX1 ? How does it compare to the venerable gh5 or the sony a6500 ? What about that divine looking Eterna profile ? I want to know where this camera is on the food chain compared to the other bodies we have available today. Im seeing pages of AF talk and im over it. Do we need to make a seperate thread solely addressing image quality and usability ? 

@kye exactly ! I would say though if you follow the rescaling,noise reduction,sharpening & grain method you can come up with your own cocktail so to speak. You can stylize your sharpening, grain etc. or use it to optimize the image for grading and web compression

has anyone compared the fuji to the gh5 or sony a6500 yet ?

@kye I can’t share the in’s and out’s of it because it is for a service I offer my clients. I can say however it involves a very tedious process of employing the right combination of upscaling,noise reduction,sharpening & grain. If done right you can increase the perceived detail of the image and the bitrate when streaming online

@kaylee I love it ! Its a big difference than what you can do in 8 & 10 bit ! I need to play around with the 12 bit feature a lil more though. The file sizes in 14 bit are insane

@webrunner5 it was the nikkor auto 35mm f1.4 and 55mm f1.2 , you probably dont likethe bokeh on the f1.2 .
