I think this sounds just perfect!

@kye"I am just tired seeing great contributors wasting their talent in bloated debates and become bloated themselves." Great contributors means people who have greatly contributed. There is a lot of appreciation in that sentence. Talent implies, I enjoy their display of talent. A lot of appreciation in my heart, mind and statement. I stand by that. And of course I would love to see you participate in the "weight loosing shooting challenge".:) This thread is a complain as much as it is giving some of my suggestions, giving examples of great stuff, expressing gratitude for the huge archive of quality writings but also expressing my view of the state of things. I believe in this conversation. @MrSMWYou are also guilty of having a great website and work for weddings, with best in town photography and wedding films. So guilt and pleasure are a wedded couple in the human ways. I don´t wish for super control. Otherwise I would have not even been able to express and discuss with you. Curation means structure of forum, suggesting things for display. Expressing what stuff we would be grateful to see from others.

Hey, dont try to sneak yourself out of our weightlosing shooting challenge.😀 @webrunner5 After all, more people doing kewl stuff will lead to more people doing kewl stuff. I am happy with what little i got and what i do with it. Will share more soon. cheers, my dear and sincere and humerous:) friend

I would prefer that. What combination do you suggest?:) We could also do a list of our stuff and people are allowed to express wishes. I would love to see Glenn @mercer with his 5d3 Rawmachine plus his Minolta 35mm 1.8. Then @hyalinejimcould join with his 5d if he still has it. @kye might be generous and give us some tasty Bmmcc goodness. I could join that to finally do some legit footage with it. @BTM_Pix could perform some more of his awesomness and challenge good ole Bmmcc HD with some Sigma FP 12bit Raw HD love. A challenge and a wishlist we could be exited about. I think @webrunner5 still has a 3 CCD Varicam on his mind. Now that would be a treat! Classy classic lushiness!😊

@DjangoEva 1 sensor is not as tall. Would love it to be though.😊 Should be 24.6 x 12.97mm regarding Panny Pro website. The camera news sites got it wrong. Maybe Panny gives the Gh6 a Super35 4to3 sensor!😊 @kye I got a lot out of the comparison I posted. Difference is there to my eyes despite the possibilities of postwork.

Emanuel, of course, I know fuzzynormals stuff from Lumix GM1 to Oly Em5. Have been a fan of the approach and results, filming with little for great effect. Also a great fan of the Gx7 colour footprint. I love the posts and wish for more stuff in that spirit. What i get tired about is eternal and mega lengthy back and forth over specs. Even much moreso i get tired of megalomanias of misunderstanding and misinterpreting within uberlong and repetetive posts, bloated glibberish. Fun fact, Mercer posted Fuzzys BW piece in the 8bit BW thread I have mentioned above. Gorgeous footage! Not so fun fact, footage does not get recognition when buried in the sub section. Until some time ago people were exited about vintage lenes. Not so much anymore in our lens thread. I posted there about the Konica 35 to 100mm F2.8, an exiting piece of glass, which i hunted on ebeach three times to get a great sample. So i know and love fuzzy, mercer and all you great artists and enthusiasts and nerds. It just feels like the art of posting needs some redirection, curation, inspiration and better and tighter communication. I am just tired seeing great contributors wasting their talent in bloated debates and become bloated themselves. Also I would love to further develope a structure of the forum to inspire posts from anamorphic, footage and raw section. After all it's a pity that gems from Tito Ferandes, Seb Farges and others are hidden and lost for an audience. Also, giving people feedback, encouraging creation is something we did much better until some time ago. I will post a bit soon. Just like all of us a bit too busy with life to do so. But i am always exited when some gem of writing is contributed. Thanks for all the great contributions over the years.

I love and enjoy to get to know about interesting things and to get and share feedback as well. Threads that inspire action to create and to dream and fantasize about it before. I have enjoyed many threads with that quality. They have topics like 8bit Black and White, 2500hour Pmw F3 Hd marvel, EosM hacked digital Super8, Roger Coreman and Jim Wynorski, matching 5d3 raw with Gh5. There are many vintage masterpieces and, thank Gosh, lovely oddities in the Eoshd archive. I would love people to contribute more again in that manner. I will post in the 8bit BW thread again soon. 5rc thread has great info now. Thanks to all of you. But it's starting to get uber bloated. Thanks to lack of own experience and own results with the cam. Let's contribute more to interesting content and honour writing, creating topics for ouselves as an audience and keep up good manners. Here is the video from a classy thread I just mentioned. Matching Gh5 with 5D3 Raw. The powergrade could still be in the original thread. Thread and video created by @hyalinejim Quality writing and work.

@kye The video does show the differences of sensor sizes on various levels, fi further in the video at 13min 50sec it shows how much much cleaner the footage with the 65 is. Like you said, a great or must watch for image lovers. Thread closed 😊

After having tried this exiting lens and having tested three of them, I am impressed. First lens has a faulty aperture, which does not close when mounted to the camera. Second one has two deep scratches. Number three is almost like new. What a marvel to hold and operate. No 1 and 3 have great center sharpness wide open throughout the zoom range. The one with the scratches is sharp at 2.8 but has a glow and is uber hard to get things in focus with when wide open. Thanks to @Rinad Amir who pointed this lens out to us on this forum among the Zeiss 40-120 2.8 if i remember correctly. Anyway, even though this lens is impressive and a of 35 to 100mm range at 2.8 is a treat, this lens is not without challenges or should I say even moreso. Its varifocal construction means the focus marks are changing through the focussing range. One of my three lenses also has focal lengths changing when lens pointed 90 degrees up or down. @BTM_Pix I have to repeat and cite myself. So here i go:) "Great to see some love for the 135mm focal length. Beautiful shots. Would love to see a video of that. What codec and resolution did you choose?"😊

The Angie above might be a 16mm lens though.:) I think I tried one a few months ago from a 16mm Beaulieu camera. I kept an Angie 75 which covers Mft and almost S35. It gives me a very exiting look on Mft. There is an awesome comparison of Arri Alexa cameras with their sensor - lens couplings and the resulting looks, done by a DOP with a great hand for such a test setup. I surely recognize that this test is not about same DOF but about look of sensor and lens pairings providing equal POVs. It always gives me clicks and gotchya moments. Enjoy and draw your conclusions. Edit: there is a DOF equivalent part of the test. So even more to enjoy. https://manuelluebbers.com/large-format-look-alexa-65-vs-alexa-mini/

How about special categories, fi smallest lens to biggest body ratio or the other way around. Two days ago i enjoyed a plastic 25mm on my Gx85 for some glorious BW. Not that this would be unusual by any means for this place and its people.:) @kye you won't see me sell my F3, my friend nor the bmmcc. We need a special category with camera body to data rate ratio, mbps per gram, giving 5d raw shooters some space- Hallo Glenn @mercer 🙂and the other way around, getting some F3 owners to finally use their gem and some internal 8bit goodness!😊

@webrunner5Yes, Don, I think an OG Bmpcc with a cheap 10, 25 and 50mm C-mount might be easier to approach. Zeek just makes it look without hassle looking at it from my superficial perspective. I tested my Bmmcc only once and it looked perfect to my eye. It is not a hasslefree camera regarding rigging though. Out of the box the Eos M appears to be a fun camera once set up with the right ML settings. Thank you for the infos! @tupp It's interesting that we are looking for the perfect personal camera from different ends, looking at high end hybrids like r5, s1h, a7s3, xt3 cams and from the low end as well. I love low end cameras and i love this thread.:)

Hallo Don, i think, i found an answer. The 2.5K mode uses almost half of the x-axis 5184 pixels of the Eos M sensor. That would equal about 10.7mm as the Eos M sensor counts 22.2mm sensor width. The og pocket counts 12.48mm width. So Magic Lantern Raw is providing a smaller sensor area than the OG Bmpcc.

Eos M has a 3x bitrate hack as well for the hardcore 8bit wizzards.:) Allowing massive S35 sensor size instead that tiny Super8 gate. What window size does Magic Lantern Raw allow on the Eos M? Super 16 would rock.

@leslie You might wanna consider an additional IR cut filter when using stronger NDs. All BM cameras suffer rather strongly from IR polution. They also prefer 5600k over pure tungsten. Great idea with lego lighting.:) cheers

Sdi, timecode, internal nds, a Super35 sensor with full VLog and Varicam color, an Oplf filter plus the announced specs, all that in a robust body with the outstanding battery life of the Lumix GH series! Percect dream (camera:). The Gh4 could be coupled with a sdi and xlr extension. Why not offer something like that for the Gh6, just (much) smaller with a much more elegant power solution.

@projectwoofer Well, it does give you that but only out of the micro hdmi.😊 That's sick, all that huge data through that tiny micro hdmi port. But seriously, a 4999 EUR camera without a professional monitoring solution. I mean, i really expected a sdi port. The BSH1 has it , though no FF 4k50p and no internal raw.

The supposely wrong info was taken from the bh website. The author from diyphoto stated that in the comment section. 10bit photo raw is what my lumix g6 did in electronic shutter mode, lol. Must be wrong.

Micro Hdmi means, no monitoring for your director or focus puller. I don't like that at all. 4500usd will buy the ongoing camera owner a brandnew Ursa Broadcast 2G with the sensor from the Pocket 6k, nds, sdi, evf, shouldermount, b4,- ef and pl- mount. It sells for 3500 brandnew without the evf. For the difference of 1000usd one could get a used Lumix S5 or for a bit more a used S1R with 45mpix photo love.

Great to see some love for the 135mm focal length. Beautiful shots @BTM_Pix Would love to see a video of that. What codec and resolution did you choose? I have a Konica 35-100mm f2.8, which I wanna test. At 2.8 it is very challenging to focus at all distances and focal lengths. Very, very challenging! Would make an external monitor really necessary for video. It's a varifical lens, focussing up to 30mm at 35mm and to about 80mm at 100mm focal length. A solid 135mm should do the trick and make it much easier to focus. There is no representative footage out there with this lens, only some 30 sec kitchen sink videos.

It's not a cinema camera with a micro hdmi, unless you wanna use calibrated cinema quality glass from rental houses. Then you can have your focus pulled using measuring tape and super precise blocking at f8 in FF mode. But then with that kinda budget the director might still want to monitor the frame to see what that 8k resolution is capturing. Micro Hdmi, what an odd but also Canon like decision. Rather get an Ursa mini 12k for 1500 USD more.

@Hannes Famira Afaik, with the 444 RGB upgrade the F3 spits out 10 bit 444, with choice for either Slog (1:) or Rec709, so no linear 12bit+. High quality 10bit Log with a sufficient codec equals or betters 12bit linear Raw, if I got Alister Chapman right, who has done tests with the FS700 and FS7 regarding that. You can read it on his website. I found one source, stating for 12bit output but that's one vs a majority ofsources. 444 does not for higher framerates than 24p I think, for sure not higher than 30p. You need a recorder like Pix, Odyssey or Cinedeck for 444. Blackmagic does 422 though. With the 444 RGB upgrade one can record up to 60p in 10bit 422 to a 3G Blackmagic VA and the other recorders as well. People have stated the 422 material is very good.

@kye, perfectly put! Thanks, mate! Interesting enough, not much exiting footage from S1H filmers on the web. This one would be another one of the very few. Though with over the top saturated hues from leds and some mushyness in the darker areas. I like the overall colour palette and boldness:

From what I got from you, Andrew and Emanuel, and from what I found on youtube, these are some low budget options: -One Plus 7t Pro (video below- Thanks Emanuel for poiniting out- I didnt get that info at first sight) -Mi 10 (Thanks Andrew, looks like a kewl device even without RAW video) -LG G8s -LGv50 -IQOO 5 -Poco X3 (this one would be a guess, from the other five phones above is footage floating around with supposely Raw clips recorded with the Motoion Cam App) So friends, go ahead and research this interesting field. Cannot wait to see some footage. One thing I recognize, the first testers show some enjoyable footage, just like the pioneers back then with their first GH1, 5D2 footage. Some great little clips from these enthusiasts!

The Yongnuo YN455 has Android 10. The snapdragon processor is the 660 version though. Does not look too good even compared to the 855 which the LG V50 has. How about the Poco X3? https://nanoreview.net/en/soc-compare/qualcomm-snapdragon-855-vs-qualcomm-snapdragon-660
