8bit Sony will show artefacts quicker than GH5. Slog especially in that carnation will show artefacts quiet easily. Slog of external 422 8bit recording with the Sony FS700 shows banding and blotches pretty quick. 8bit and slog is kinda tricky.

Lens looking awesome. The Meteor zoom for the Krasnogorsk is much cheaper but not with that kind of image.

@Kisaha, @Andrew Reid, I second that. Doesn´t feel like good vibes!

@Grimor, nice edit and framing and pace, perspective. Nice job with the colors as well. What lenses did you use? Exellent choice of focal lenths! Great job!

Hey Glenn, @mercer, you must put Andrew at @Andrew Reid, so he can recognize your question better. I´m also very interested in that question I takes quiet some practice to get smooth movements other than tilts n pans and 3 feet push ins with the GX85. I´ve been practicing quiet a bit and it is kinda edgy. Using it with a cage and a rubber band, which helps a lot.

Hallo Mick, nice filming. The moody start at the beginning was in the known manner of such mood/people pieces, nonetheless solid. Out of that I really liked the cheerful part with the youngsters having a great time at the beach- nice perspective and framing and focal length. I really liked the energy of the surfing stuff. Maybe a little story or storyline would be nice to give it some narrative interest. Something like preparation, collective cheering afterwards about the great surf moves. The music I found rather of the generic moody style, typical modern video soundtrack style. Anyhow, good camera work and exiting surfing footage and filming!

Yeah, great cams! If the C200 only had 2K 12 bit Raw in that 3:1 dataratio. Slog- looks like it! Haha! Out of likes again. Gotta get to sleep now. Good night, bud!

Haha, what´s up with the skintones of these two guys?

Let´s get a poll started for your camera to buy! Will be a heck of beautiful VLOG colors without nasties

Think Varicam LT has the same 400mbit codec, doesnt it? And its supposed to be pretty nice for lower framerates.

Also, no Canon FD glass without cropping adapters But no more speedboosters necessary for that glorious S35 Look, Varicam sensor, awesome! Also best light sensivity after Sony A7S, without the 8bit artefacts!

LS300 with internal 2K RAW. Great idea. Instant buy!

Bummer! Would 400mbit be enough for 2K raw at 24p? That would be about 2Megabyte per 2K frame. Should be enough regarding writing speed onto SD cards. FS7 has only around 240mbps for internal 4K. On paper, with internal 2K Raw, the EVA1 aka Varicam Mini would be a lovely dream to dream about upgrading from a Lumix G6. Without 2K Raw I will never be able to choose between this and the C200 and will have to stay a Lumix filmer

Hey Jon! Yes aperture priority due to the quick approach. It was an exercise for the director, the actors and me. Pans, tilts and some push ins/outs involved with my rubberband GX85 rig in uncontrolled light. I just wanted to illustrate quickly, that GX85 does produce nice color even with underexposed daylight shots at ISO 1250. It is a good camera for good 8bit color. Hey Glenn, thank you very much! I was going for the skintones and more sublte hues and tones this time. 1080p at ISO 1250. Will post the video, once edited and if actors agree. Not CineD but Natural with Contrast and Color at 0. Graded with five nodes. Just wanted to approve, that GX85 has nice colors and to show off the well discussed approach to stay at 0 for contrast and color and not to choose to flatten the profile. Just like Noam Krolls approach for Cine D with contrast at 0. You are right, Glenn, it´s not Cine D but Natural. My point was GX80 shows off nice colors at contrast and color at 0. Thank you for your appreciation. Jon, it´s graded, filmed in Natural at 0 for contrast and color following your and the other guys´approach to honour the 8bit and not going too flat Thanks for bringing that approach up and for giving some more very interesting points about feeding the sensor with plenty light and not to worry blown out parts in meaningless parts of the image.

GX85 has nice colors for sure. Shot this footage with contrast and saturation at 0, -3sharp, -5noise, in 1080p with automatic shutter and -1/3stop , oh, and accidentally with ISO 1250

Hallo Stephen, I´m using my lenses on s35, that is speed boosted m43. So having that f2 over f2.8 is indeed the desirable advantage I am looking for. Looking out for a Canon FD 28 f2 now. Great link and read. On m43 that lens would be more narrow than a 28mm on a focal reducer. C-mount wouldnt allow speed booster. I don´t know, if it would cover "native" s35mm. Thank you for the article. It was a great read! http://www.ebay.de/itm/Pentax-Asahi-Opt-Co-SMC-1-2-28-Lense-/201935691383?hash=item2f044e1e77:g:654AAOSw5cRZJbVB The "Hollywood" Pentax went through the roof again! There was a revised Pentax M version, I missed on bidding, which is even supposed to be better: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Pentax-M-28mm-f-2-manual-focus-lens-/272666168356?hash=item3f7c2b8c24%3Ag%3ArMcAAOSwKytZE1WS&nma=true&si=ksloQ3AY4H%2FmrNJTL3jOHqMZL%2FY%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 This would have been the perfect 28mm luxury bargain, 250 USD only! Does anybody have experience with this carnation of the Zeiss/ Pentax "Hollywood"?

Darn! Missed an auction today. It sold with an 28-70 2.8-4.2 Macro and a 70 to something zoom for less than 35 USD. Was messing around researching for it too much! I think I will have to wait to pick another one up for that cheap! Great. I think I gonna give that beauty a try. Maybe the best bargain 28 F2 of the better quality ones, I would assume. FD glass is pretty awesome!

Yes, it´s Noams CineD setting. I think it follows the right "philosophy". So you´re shooting Cine D on a GX85? Wanna show some test footage with and without Noams Lut? One of the videos successfully showing off Cine D vs other profiles is this one. It uses good exposure, good white balance, good light and none of that bad grading, just well shot footage for comparison. This is the first video, which shown me the benefits of Cine profile.

My Kiron has a serial number starting with 7. It is Kiron/Kino made. Maybe the Komine made version is better. There are not that many 1 on 1 full resolution comparisons between these differently made lenses. Pentaxforums has been a nice source of information to me. For now, I will sell my Kiron and be happy with my FD 28 2.8 until that Pentax 2.0 crosses my way:) Or get a 28mm 2.0 Canon FD soon.

@Mattias Burling, did you ever get your hands around a Soligor 28 2.0? They are supposed to be made by Tokina and different from their Kiron counterpart, which is very soft and CA loving to my testing, about as good at 4.0 as Canon FD wide open at 2.8!

Hey Mattias! Thats an M-mount lens? A bargain for Leica lovers then:)

Great suggestion of yours: 35mm 2.0 on full frame! A 28mm F2.0 on speedboosted m43 would be like 39mm F2.0 on full frame! Close enough I would say!

https://phillipreeve.net/blog/old-new-zeiss-2-828-vs-sony-fe-228-vs-minolta-mc-228/ This is the closest I found when it comes to a comparison. It has the "old" Zeiss Distagon 28mm 2.8 vs the new Sony 28mm 2.0. The Zeiss 28 2.8 seems a great lens in its own right, with the 2.0 version having that little extra. Phillip also linked to a review of the "Hollywood" Zeiss, stating the nickname is deserved, beautiful Bokeh characteristics for close to distance transistions and interesting field curvage. This is an example of the wide open character in 24 MP of an A7: https://www.flickr.com/photos/jannik_peters/26124031323/sizes/o/

On S35 28mm is a beautiful focal length in my opinion! Since owning a GX85 I discovered that even more, because careful framing with it is a joy due to its ibis. So are talking about 35mm length on 36x24 sensor like the A7S you used to shoot some of the best A7S colors with? That would be like a 20mm on S35- beautiful as well! That modern Zeiss 28mm ZE is supposed to be a heck of a lens, for around 1000 USD though! The Sony with fly by wire focussing is supposed to be about equally as good when it comes to optical quality. Sounds great. I think I will do that. Heard good things about the Minolta too. Not sure if the Vivitar, Komine, Kiron and so versions are that different from eachother or if it´s just lens folklore and part of lensporn. By the way, different sort of bargain: www.ebay.com/itm/ZEISS-Zeiss-Distagon-T-28mm-f-2-ZE-Lens-Canon-Fit-MINT-Condition-/263007244223?hash=item3d3c740fbf:g:PmAAAOSwH09ZKiBI Shoot, out of likes! Lol Time big time!

@mercer, if it´s 1Gbps for 4K RAW, I´d be pleased with 250 Mbit for 2K RAW 12 bit for 24p and 10bit for 50/60p. Then I would sell all my stuff to get one. Good thing I don´t have to right now So future update for codec with higher framerate will be 10bit or still 8bit?
