Does this also apply for h265 422 files?

Yeah this is very true, to some extent. Most of us can benefit more from lighting/grading. But at a certain level, just everything needs to be top notch. I feel camera, lenses, lighting, grading, sound, acting, set design, directing are all important, if one of those is off the film/scene is off. Cameras do matter though if you look at shootouts between cameras in same lighting setup, not only DR stands out but color. And yes I have heard numerous times if you shoot 10 bit(or raw) you can get the same results but to me it looks like almost nobody can pull this off. I mean I can easily spot the blackmagic footage in mad max fury road. And if they cant even match it, how should us mortal folks do it.

I absolutely hate apple stuff, but this thing has taken my interest. I love pc, but there is no pc setup that runs these hevc 422 files smootly. Or is there?

Thats true, but in this case its not an advantage as you have lots of space between the subject and the background.

Not sure that you can. Maybe handheld would be better then a helmet cam. But its maybe also possible the IBIS or lens stabilization is causing the issue.

Those micro vibrations do ruin the shots.

Well it would be a mistake to include h265 in a pro camera, that every editor has problems with. If they would include prores or any other pro codec on the R5(besides the cripple hammer overheating limit), the sales on the Canon cinema series would take a big hit.

I maybe would, if it was a hybrid. I dont like carrying 2 bodies around.

I dont like the high shutterspeed + looks oversharp to me + due to the lowlight a lot of the footage looks weird/mushy(maybe could be solved by crushing the shadows/blacks a bit more).

I just received the panasonic S5, did not open the box yet. But somehow I am still lured to the R5 and R6. R5 is a bit too pricey for me, but I just keep wondering if I can make the R6 work. I have not seen anything goodlocking on any panasonic S camera. And from the R5/R6 I have seen some great stuff already. Also the skintones comparisons, the canons really shine imo. - The overheating was a worry, but I believe we can bypass it now with the battery door trick. - Codecs, how hard they are to edit. - How good is the 1080p - Do you struggle with the dynamic range (vs A7SIII, S1H, pocket 6K,...)

Lets hope so, I want to get a good deal.

Yes sorry, comment was aimed at editing h265 cheaply.

What about desktops though.

Toobad its macbook, hopefully a pc alternative soon.

Hmm I was hoping on something more. I dont need any of these features as of now, or maybe they are handy but I dont grasp the concept yet.

Yeah dont like to use proxy's because it takes time, and it takes up hard disk space.

cries in 3700x...

Yeah I guess that sums it up. Every other camera is flawed heavy. And this one does not seem to excell in any department, but its just ok or more then ok for all departments.

Weight and screen that can be flipped to the front so you can film youself(handy for test shots or vlogging)

Im referring to the canon r5 files, and yeah I know its a hardware problem. And h265 is a nightmare vs raw or prores.

Oh and if possible make editing h265 smooth like butter. Then I might get a r5.

Setup times are important, putting a monitor on your camera when you pull it out of your backpack does take some time and you might loose a cool shot + its not fun, I would rather be tempted to leave the camera at home/hotel. Putting it away in your backpack with the monitor still attached it might hurt the sdi/hdmi connector. But I do really like the komodo, if I did this thing full time I would def get one. And get a bunch of other cameras as well.

- export prores on windows - better graphics support jpg, png, psd without jagged lines etc - auto color correct clips to each other (manual matching cameras kinda sucks without a color checker) - better render quality for h264

Monday bm will release resolve 17. Exited to see what they will announce.

What about video DR? As there is prolly not any bracketing taking place, the non smartphones might have the upperhand again.
