What do they mean by short? Short on visual splendor, short on being a film, short on acceptable skintones- especially at the paragliding part? Produced by Sony?- not short on being a good joke. I usually don´t get upset about harmless videos like this. This time it is just the notion of disbelieff. Having to witness something like this, people enjoying the luscious lifestyle of material wealth but being bothered by having skintones like orange smurfs. "Trust yourself"- on being an orange smurf in the sky.

From what I can tell, the S1H was about to gain serious momentum in the video world. Now, with the A7S3 that might change, if it performs without overheating. If the A7siii provides reliable video performance without hickups just like the A73 it will sell well. A73 and A7s2 owners will update as soon as their cashflow will allow. Panasonic should have given the S1 the VLOG/10bit as part of the package for 2000USD, the S1H for 3000. I am still not keen on spending 200 extra on the VLOG update for my S1 and I am not exited about the HD image. GH5 on the contrary has a perfect HD image up to 60p. Why dont S1 and S1H have perfect HD? Such a pretty image but falling a bit short on a few things unnecessarily, without good reason, so to say.

Weird, that Canon never cashed in on a XC20, with 10bit 4k 1 to 1 readout up to 60p, and perfect HD up to 120p, with old school Clog, same body, 1800 to 2000 bucks. Interchangeable lenses for eos m-mount. Instant classic.

@Emanuel Heated discussuions about great BTS and lens tips. Thats what we want. How about Lmount, lacking in a adapter for Konica mounted lenses. I have a huge Konica zoom coming, big and bad as Davids beard and will have to mount it to my FS700. Back to topic, sorry for chatting, me bad lad. Umm, yeah that mirror is indeed spiffy. How about a FF 35mm equivalent, 24 in S35, 25 on mft, set to f11. DOV calculator could be showing solution for all VLogger problems. Btw, thanks, Emanuel, your are very kind.

I can see that. 🙂 Now, this gimmick is cute. Could make me want to become a VLogger with a Lumix S1. But that thing does not have the great AF capabilities to show off my beauty adequately. Too bad, no beauty shots of myself with F1.4. Btw, Z6 would look good on you. G9 too. 10bit, hmm:)

David, whats up with your spacing. Your paragraphing is exploding in the y axis, lol. 🙂

Only in some of these awesome cinematic masterpieces from Japan, fortunately. Is it implications or is it consideration of health you are communicating? Nevertheless, my best assumptions about your intentions:)

The representative states it wont overheat in 4k 24p. How about 25 and 30p? Will it be as nicely resolving as the 1 to 1 readout of the C300mk2 or will it look like lower resolution upscaled to 4K? Hopefully he didnt mean to imply my first question and other considerations.

Pixelbinned 4k can look impressive. That 120p 4k material from the R5 of the woman at the beach in Vietnam looks rather mushy to me. People who responded to my post didnt seem to agree. Some wrote, looks like epic red epic. To me it looked mushy. After conversion to Prores422 I gave it a run in Davinci. Colours responded nicely. But it didnt look higher resolving than HD to me. People on the forum recognized the smoothness of red dragons. I saw HD of the old C300mk1 days. So, nice pixelbinned 4K would look different. 4k from the 1 to 1 readout of the c300mk2 looks very nice. Test material of the R5 with 120p4k looks not like 4k to me. Maybe they can roll the release back and built a better body. They should, then they will earn and deserve customer appreciation.

You might wanna try the Fujinon 12.5mm 1.4. That beauty covers S16 mode of the GH5, which the 1.4x crop is. It almost covers 4K area of the GX85. Just sayin, because I see a bit of vignetting in the S16 mode. I bought that lens after Glenns recommendation. @mercer

Just sayin. Its a mockumentary. 🙂

Like I said perfect HD coming from Alexa or PMW F3 or C100/300, GH5(s) is beautiful. That in 120p is an attraction. The 4k120 footage on youtube didnt impress more than this. My word has been said enough for now. I believe you, that the original footage looks much better than the youtube stream. My laptop is not beefy enough for davinci and h265, let alone 4k120.

@gt3rs unfortunately this is the best i can communicate my impression about the 4k 120p footage I have seen so far from the R5. I was not impressed. Others can still be impressed. I am sure when avid filmers put that camera into use for a short film it will shine image wise. But so do S1, S1H, Nikon Z6, Canon R. The 120 4k to my eyes does not look better than pixel perfect HD. That can change if less compressed footage will appear on vimeo. 4k 120 in 10bit 422 is an awesome spec, even 4k 60p 10bit 422. If it will show in the quality of the images then of course it will be an attraction. Pixel perfect 120fps HD with 240th second of a shutter or even 500th second is an attraction by itself!

Would need a web search. Please be adventerous enough to do so. A bit of info from my side: GH5s shoots pixel perfect HD up to including 100fps, GH5 up to 60fps. Though only in 8bit from 60+ fps on. Imagine a pixel perfect HD image of 60fps such as from a GH5, GH5s or C100II, just twice as slow.

Thanks, Andrew. Gives me chills. In the end, Chow Yun Fat will always be cooler and funnier than the guy from Kung Fury. Though latter is not unfunny.

Back to topic, so sadness will not come over us. Canons pre model does not impress me by the footage seen on youtube. Canon R5 4K 120p does not look better than pixel perfect 120p HD to my eyes.

The way I even see it, is to not to reveal the beauty to the hipster world, so they cannot claim it, pervert it, abuse it to their own selfcentered or even strictly economical agenda. How does one reveal beauty without endangering it? These days... When Techno started it was so absent of hipsterism. A hipster makes even concret to be hip and lose its steel like hardness and rough nature. I dont mean the original hipsters of the 1940ies of course.

Looks like a mockumentary to me. If so, please call it that. Matias Nordahl Carlsen is an actor who looks like the Matias Nordahl Carlsen in your video. He might enjoy the luxury of living in the nature and he might enjoy doing forklifting meanwhile once in a while. A professional forklifter he is not. Sony PMW F3 btw or filmstock?:)

Unfortunately I cannot bring myself to do that anymore. Even worse, I hardly can stand taking the Sbahn. These pretenders indeed take it all. Attention, public space, language, thought, real estate. Trees being torn down for their fugly townhouses. I get you, Andrew. More than I wish I would have to. People will have to learn to turn away from click bait and from the new camouflages of new click bait. In the end this distraction forbids the public to mature and thatfore to act against threats of our times.

Our avid action choreographer and director @hmcindie has done several high paced pieces. Many of them were some of my favorite posts for showing off a variety of cameras. Now one with the original Canon EOS R, testing its capabilities and showcasing the skills of the filmmakers. Awesome indie stuff. Interesting enough that this footage looks more compelling than Canons official footage for their new R5 and R6. This is a rolling shutter test par exellence. And great proof of handheld skills. No overheating camera, just heat of the action!

@hmcindie Super cool. Lovely handheld camera. Too bad the subforums not as much visited as the other threads. So, which is your favorite indiefilm/shortfilm/actionshortfilm camera as of NOW. BMCC, 5DRAW... ? Always loved your videos. Would love to see more of these kinda posts in the main forum. Talking practical relevance and such.

I am pretty sure about the 2x on the GX80/85. I will check and hopefully not disappoint. Would love a writeup from you about the Oly PL9 and some footage. And some lens nerdery in the lens thread. Back to topic: MarkusPix gave away a GX85.:)

Glenn, would have loved you giving the plastic fantastic approach more time. I finally bought the FD 35-70 f4. Should arrive soon. Interested to see how it holds up against the Soligor 35-70 2.5-3.5. Latter one has one bad trick up its sleeve. When you put aperture on 3.5 it will still switch to a lower one on the long end, making it 5.6. Starting with 2.5 of course will switch it to 3.5 at 70mm of course. Still, that vari aperture is a bit of a pain for fast zooms

@John Matthews I remember back then when I followed your posts in the GX85 thread. Being my greatest reading pleasure on the forum those days. Still, a bit 10bit in the mix with 100mbit pixel perfect HD would be just perfect. GX85 also has a 2x digizoom mode, giving something like 2.5K video, if I remember correctly. Cannot check, cuz I am not at home and cam is not with with. Now that is a shame indeed. 🙂

Wow, I bought Fishtank years ago on DVD. And didnt keep the directors name in my head. Now, you putting it back in there. Thanks. What a cool forum this is. And what an awesome thread. Classic!
