Battery life is insane crazy!
As a test, I put two 128GB SD cards in the camera and I hooked it up to a cheap USB 10,000 (one that isn't PD rated) and I started recording in 8-bit 4K and went to bed. When I woke up, both SD cards were full and the camera recorded for over 4 hours!

Summer 2021
Here is the rumored sensor specs:

Saw it from FB post, really curious about the price of it.
possible up to 1000fps in 30 or 90s 

Will let you know after the race this weekend.  My EF lens running pretty good on R, R5 should be even better.
DR wise I feel my S5 will trump R5 until clog3 update.

Same for me it has arrived today. Tomorrow i'll make some tests to see what this little beast can output but so far first impressions are extremely good. Seems as well built as my S1H. 
Very comfortable in hand and so happy about the weight and size. I'ts going to be my daily camera, as well as my b-cam for shoots. 
I have a shooting on Wednesday (a small narrative web ad for an app) that I planned to shoot on one camera but I'm tempted to throw the S5 on set to take some additional coverage... Just to see how well it matches with its big brother. 

S1H also have crop when shooting 4k60P.
 

That footage from Arri is pretty horrible though, some cows in a field vs RED has some pretty good stuff on there. 

I have consistently failed to make my own footage as good as I was hoping for, so have decided to try my hand at grading the best footage available, the sample shots from the manufacturers themselves.
I've done this in the past but got sidetracked, but am now back on it.  I figure that until I can make ARRI or RED footage look good, there's no point criticising my own footage - maybe the footage is fine and it's my grading skills that are solely to blame.
My previous attempts, however short, made me realise a few things:
flat ungraded footage from any camera looks dull there was a lot more noise in the RED and ARRI footage than I was expecting - ie, A LOT more Overall, the biggest surprise was how average the footage looked.  Since then I've learned a bunch and hopefully will have more success.
Anyone want to join me?

Sony Venice frames here: http://www.xdcam-user.com/tag/footage/ but I couldn't find any official footage for download
I've downloaded footage from https://raw.film before too, so that might be worth checking out.
As a reality check, I'm also pulling in the ML footage I've shot back when I was playing with it on my Canon 700D, and also the test shots I've been shooting with the BM Micro Cinema Camera.
I suspect that the footage I shoot is much better than I think, and that I'm much worse at colour grading than I think.
If anyone is interested in joining me that would be fun, and if there are other places to download well shot sample footage that would also be very interesting.

Don't think this will sell well, terrible video specs for the price, bad viewfinder, and not in any way better than the A7III for photographers. 

Ah I just saw this on youtube, I came over here to post it, but you already did it. It really looks great! Might get one in a couple of years. 

If it can't move, it can't break (in warranty)?

@Andrew Reid could you do a side by side video with the r5 and you s1h? I didnt found any comparison videos between these 2. I wonder how much difference of DR there is in real life and how bad the AF is on the S1h in comparison and stabilization. But also how smooth do the files edit? Does the s1h have an edit codec advantage? Thanks!

Yes did tested it, works great on Canon 5D Mark III. Really happy as 2:1 is my favorite aspect ratio. If one day real time live view in crop mode is fixed it would be truly a great Super35 RAW camera. Was thinking of selling my Canon 5D Mark III but now with latest development, no way it will stays with me. As one of the greatest DSLRs and great Super35 RAW camera too. 
Same for EOS M -2.5K 2:1 and 2.8K at 2.35:1 ratios are now possible. Again if real time live view in crop mode is fixed it will be a great Super16 RAW camera. Much better resolution than first BMPCC at Super16. And EOS M is already a decent Super35 RAW camera  According to Bilal real time live view in crop mode will work also over HDMI. So external monitoring in crop modes will be possible too. 
Cross my fingers this real time live view in crop mode make it to the builds soon. It will release also additional bandwidth for writing. It means stable and longer recording times in high resolution crop modes. 
Really impressed with what ML (mostly Bilal and Danne the last 2 years)  have achieved with EOS M and Canon 5D Mark III !
No 60fps and certainly not in high res crop mode. Only 45fps at 1080p. There are better cameras now for 60p. 

I find if I hide any layer in the edit page, those clips don't show up in the colour tab.  I often use this to separate drone, different cameras.  Hiding all layers except the one devoted to the camera files I wish to grade.  It also works on adjustment layers and transition layers I have, making sure I don't accidentally grade these when I apply a node to all clips.

Lets wait on some test results from some users. Might be interested in the R6, if the overheating is solved. Otherwise I will go for an panasonic S5 I think. R5 is just too pricey, a7S III as well. 

Any production that requires me to wear body armour would make me feel a bit anxious. 

Well, well - actually I did test it with my R5. Firmware 1.1.0 - and guess what: it works like at charm.
Let the camera overheat in the 120fps mode. Camera gets really warm. I guess I had something like 20 minutes in total (had to erase the clips from my card again and again). Anyway, after the camera overheated I opened the battery door, blocked the little latch to make the camera think it was closed. Went into the menue, forwarded the date by one full day. Confirmed. Took the battery out, waited some 15 seconds. Put the battery back in, closed the battery door. And here it was: Camera still warm after a short pause of 2 minutes (the time it took to go through the procedure) and what do I see in the display: Full recording time, no overheating sign. LOL. Canon, You've got a loophole there. Does the camera even bother to measure zhe temperature at all?!
Say thank you to yourboylloyd on Magic Lantern Forum.

No, definitely not. 

yes well the S1 and S1H have 1 stop more of ibis over the S5, but I am still leaning towards the S5 because of the weight(flipscreen). For walking shots you still need a gymbal/glidecam anyways so I figure I rather lift 300GR less each time I fly it. And prolly because it is smaller and lighter it gets mounted much faster, and doesnt need that much precision on a ronin s for example(could be wrong but I def noticed the difference rigging a RED vs my old GH4). 

Newsshooter just released their review as well. It looks good. Wondering how that price will translate in euros.
I rather have an r5 or a7s iii, but for half the price of those you cant go wrong with the s5.

With S1 Sigma mc 21 and Tamron 24-70 G2 VC Control works nice together with the Ibis

I have the Sigma with my S1H and it works really great. I think it's the best option right now.

No it's available in France, and in other countires as I saw it so i'm pretty sure it works in Belgium !
