Are you 100% sure that an A7S II will come? Sony's marketing keeps saying that with the A7R II you don't have to choose between resolution and sensitivity.

Just found this trailer, can't stop laughing:

Yeah, while every update is most welcomed, not many are here from that list. Let's hope it's just a matter of time.

Then you should really focus on those threads, or make more of them. If we like that, we will follow. In the meantime, I appreciate summaries like this as well. It can be really helpful to a newcomer, and it does not state that a well lit and composed scene is not essential for a good shot.

Thank you both for the clarification. The box is nice but I think we'll see products like this way cheaper in the near future, as the tech behind it is not that complex. I'm surprised it has no competitors already.

Yes, the guy that started this,

I'm not sure I understand. I was asking about the CFast breakout cable Endfallow Media posted. Did the C-Box guy use that?
-
I like this idea. I also saw another recommendation to use a breakout cable like this one:

I bet you could even use a small SSD housing as a caddy, and even as a means to power it.
Nice, did anyone try this yet?

The high cost of CFast cards make some people think about workarounds, here's one interesting project: C-Box

What irritates me is how casually this very site and its owner gets bashed, and it's happening more often now...perhaps, in the midst of all the self-pity and victimhood you guys should consider that your own comments might be quite hurtful and abusive towards the person who single-handedly runs this site and who is decent enough not to cram 50 banners down your eyeballs because he is trying to maintain honesty without conflict of interest?
Everything happens for a reason. If the owner gets bashed, there's a reason for that too. In the end he is a person just like the rest of us, regardless of what he does for the community.

The drama is just a reaction to something already very dramatic. I think it would be fair to moderate that too next time.

Who cares what kids think? The illusion isn't broken for them because they barely grasp the concept of illusion. If the sets don't look real it doesn't matter to a child because it doesn't even cross their minds that it isn't real.
Once the curtain is pulled away and you lose your child like sense of wonderment, HFR narrative ceases to be convincing. HFR action sports works because its actually real life and no illusion needs to be created.
I don't think 24P is going anywhere until the film industry itself evolves into something other than watching moving pictures on a large screen.
You (and me) have absolutely no idea how a world would look like with 48p as the standard for storytelling. We grew up with 24p, we think it's a great tool for creating illusions, but I would never consider it as a golden standard for mankind. You say if the curtain is pulled away high frame rates cease to be convincing, but I wonder if you really missed 24p if you had no idea about it. Let's say you grow up this way and someone shows you a 24p movie, would you really think it is better? I highly doubt that. I know this is hypothetical, but it's important to see that we are highly trained to believe that 24p is ideal, it became standard like 80 years ago.

Lets see how many shoot 24P after 5 years.
There is no such thing as film today. Why try to imitate old look with new tools? Okay 60P ecosystem is just coming in fullhd and not reality in 4k but 30P is still available everywhere.
Is there anyone who shoots nature movies or documentaries or sports films? Are you all shooting fiction movies with dreamy look and shallow DOF? How about recording memories or everyday life? Does perfect, sharp and fluid motion has actually the best cadence?
What is the difference of broadcast TV and film today. People watch everything with everything. We watch TV programs with computers and smartphones and movies with TV. Why a look which blurs the movie and adds stuttering artefacts or faults to moving parts of video is more "cool" than clear and sharp video. Even as a child I always wondered why the movie looks bad every time the camera pans or someone moves. I never learned to love those faults. Is there any value when all the landscape detail disappear when turning camera? Why not add some scratches and jittering film projector vibration and film noise too (in fact some are doing that).
There are huge threads about this. I share your views to an extent, I think the world is changing and 24p will have to go in the future. I have to admit though that even I find the 24p hobbit better than the 48p one, but I think that's because my brain is trained the way it is. I'd love to see a survey about kids watching 24p/48p movie comparison. It would be interesting to see which one they preferred.

I came here to read about Nikon raw and end up questioning about forum policy.
Honestly I like this forum but calling someone an IDIOT because he said that the topic title is misguiding is simply offensive.
Happens, unfortunately. If you think you can do anything about it, and you actually try it, believe me you'll find yourself on the edge of leaving this forum in no time.

Log profile with the actual level of compression... 8bit 420... I don't see how that would be interesting :/
I see your point, but it's still better than not having it. I guess many A7S users are happy with internal S-Log2.
-
Not if they do it out the USB3 port
Honestly, just hoping for better RS in 4K, center 4K crop, higher bitrate options in 1080p, and a 1080p HDMI out option.
And a true log profile please
-
Yeah you can record 12bit raw HD, I forgot to mention that I was thinking about 14 bit uncompressed raw. However, 4K raw is still out of question.
-
Even the fastest SD cards don't have enough continuous write speed for RAW fullhd, not to mention 4K.
-
Does any of you know if the D750 can export 1080p 60p over HDMI?
-
Wow, finally an 1080p external recorder with 60p.
-
Hurtful yes, but rumors started many months ago about a replacement. So I think a price cut was to be expected.
-
Please post your results when you have some, I really want to see a D750/NX1 comparison. When it comes to details I'm sure the D750 is no match for the NX1, but I wonder about DR and colors.

Check out Cinelerra. I don't think there's a better one for Linux, but don't trust me, do your search as well, as I'm a Windows user
Sony has gone internal-4K crazy: A7RII, RX1004, RX10II

I suppose that's Australian dollars.
