The commlite af with a7rii is way way inferior to the af with metabones v4 adapter. Its amazing how much difference the adapter makes. I'd also add in that i shoot 50% video 50% stills with my a7 and use manual focus primes for everything, i have a beautiful set of fast nikkor ai's.

Panasonic G7, Canon T6i, Nikon D3300, or Sony A5100. All are great entry level cameras that take great stills and competent video for the price. 

Has timecode disappeared from the menus altogether or has it just broken over HDMI?
In the HDMI menu there should be an option to display the camera's info over HDMI for the monitor.
Maybe the firmware reset the default settings?

dont know your budget but the d750's 1080p 60fps is pretty darn sharp and clean, it also has a massive DR

If staying with Sony colours then Sony A6000?

So in other words the 8bit LOG is broken, kaput.
It shouldn't be. No need for it to be. Canon LOG is 8bit on their cameras. Works fine. GH4 V-LOG is 8bit internally. Works fine.

Well the nx1 takes the 28mp 6.5 signal and downscales it to 4k which is absolutely incredible, the the super 35mm crop on the a7rii is just above 4k so that imo is the reason for the detail aspect.

Im a bit of a lens nerd myself so im interested in seeing what you guys shoot with on you cameras whether it be old vintage lenses or modern ones.
My current set is made out of
Samyang 8mm F2.8, Tokina 17mm F3.5, Nikkor 35mm 1.4 Ai, Minolta 55mm f1.7, Nikkor 85mm 1.8 ai and a fun one, the sigma 400mm f5.6 reflex lens.

Im really really excited for this lens! A cine 50mm T(!) 1.1 for 350 bucks. 

I use an Intious 5 for video editing. Once I got used to it, a mouse is just a pain.

My dream Chinese product is a battery grip that also connects to the hdmi port and allows prores recording to a secondary SD card. 

He has won several Oscars but imo this is cooler

BTW, Greta Garbo is also getting one.

yes i agree but sharpness is a though one to messure because the sensor changes it so much. The vingetting, chromatic aberation and distortion is equal on all sensors.

you find them on ebay, just make sure to buy from china and not some reseller that sell them way overpriced

I was only joking cause I wish they added this functionality to the A7rii. Renaming things we want as "issues" seems to grab Sony's attention. Although black spots is more of an actual issue. 

i had a nex 7 which is a little bigger than the a6000 and i fit it in my jacket pocket with the 20mm f2.8

not worth the huge size and the distortion is horrible on it.

saw this picture on cinema5d and wow, im really surprised Sony managed to get the lowlight so much better than the original a7s.

i dont think its possible to make one for the nx1 because of the flange distance.

First of all a adapter with no glass will not effect image quality so the E mount version of the sammy is not less sharp than the canon mount.
I'd push you to buy the nikon mount samyang 85mm becuase nikon mount is the most adaptable and can be  used on most cameras.
"Iv'e seen that some lenses have a lower scores because of there mount (nikon,sony,canon) is this because when a lens is adapted from EF to E or the other way around, it get's reduced sharpness because it simply works better on EF fit."
That is because the different mounts have difference sensors, lets say canon has a 50mp sensor and sony a 36mp sensor. The lens will score higher on the canon because you can see more detail.
 

the samyang tilt shift lenses are really good and have native e mount.

After having the luxury of EVF for manualy focusing video/stills i would find it very hard to go back to dslrs. But who knows, maybe canon will release something interesting.

So yesterday i stumbled apoun this product on ebay ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/new-Nikon-F-G-focal-reducer-speed-booster-adapter-to-Canon-EOS-M-EOSM-M2-M3-/361376870358?hash=item5423bd6fd6:g:u84AAOSwHnFV4muu ), its a Eos m to nikon g focal reducer. I knew that the Eos M have some magic lantern raw capabilities and after further research i found out that it can shoot at a resolution of 720 x 1280. 
A eos M can commonly be found for about 150$ (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Canon-EOS-M-Body-Gehause-black-schwarz-TOP-wie-neu-OVP-/151853015439?hash=item235b25218f:g:vYQAAOSw~bFWI-fz).
If anyone has tried a common combo i would be interested in knowing more.

Thanks Liam... I will make sure to watch this video. And you are spot on, I am not doing a lot of post production, just slightly correct or boost colors if needed. I though of having an external recorder and after toying with an external monitor (that I no longer use) It is actually utterly unpractical in my case. The added weight of the monitor increase risk of shaky videos when shooting outdoor, on a single spot I can move my camera as much as 30 to 50 times in a single hour, ppl will immediately spot you with a recorder... Now, a Recorder without a screen that unload files on an external SSD and that rely on the basic info of the Camera while keeping 10bit output I would really consider it, but as they are and being alone with my backpack surrounded by tourists or in the middle of nowhere alone is a bit tough. 

Well so far all points to keeping my GH4, get a speedbooster and wait for the GH5... I will try to rent a A7SII and play with it for a day or two to see, but it does not seems that this kind of camera is made for me...
