Why do everyone keep saying the GH5S and BMPCC4K sensor is the same? They are literally different sizes. Did I miss something?
 
BMPCC4K: 18.96 mm x 10 mm
GH5/S: 17.3 x 13 mm

I believe the real conversation should be whether the new Pocket 4k will measure up to the NX1.

Jesus we get you are not going to buy the God Damn thing. Give it a rest!

Think I need to change my underpants.

True, and I don't think they even have that sort of policy structure towards protecting their higher end products in the traditional sense like other companies: Fusion inside Resolve, Pocket at a pricepoint that feels like they're giving it away.

Well the BMPCC was a "cinema camera", thus external power/audio/screen is essential if you want high quality. Just like if you used an Arri / RED / etc! I don't get why people didn't get this.  Instead expecting something completely different. 

However it appears BMD really took this criticism to heat, and have greatly improved the audio and internal battery life. 
However the audio in even the original BMPCC isn't that awful if just for casual usage, a lot of my vlog videos are audio straight into the BMPCC with no editing. https://www.youtube.com/c/SoundSpeeding
 

When I spoke to the folks at Panasonic they suggested they would be ready to act if the situation warranted it.

You guys need to learn how to hold your cameras correctly, and also how to pull focus. I have a few Cannes lions under my belt and I’ve shot with no ibis, non active lens mounts and finally NO AF for the past 7-8years. This camera is crazy insane, and also it’s freaking 1400dollars with tax!!! Like what stuff do you guys even shot?!

Unlikely to be the standard GH5 sensor. I bet in a new one but Dave has inferred to be the GH5S... What do we know about?
EDIT -- You beat me @SR : ) Different sizes don't seem to match the same sensor of a kind. At least to my humble knowledge :-)

Well trouble is we are not sure yet what Sensor this thing really has. So different Speedboosters for each one. And well Nikon or Canon, I would go Canon, but if you are into MF well Nikon MF lens better for that.
And about cinematic images my thought is that the newer lenses are Too damn good. I like the old film lenses, lot more character to them. Sort of like the old Zeiss CP.2's, not that I can afford one, let alone a set LoL.

IBIS just isn't a pro video feature. Blackmagic's brand is all about uncompromised image quality. I would agree that the Pocket is the one BM camera targeted toward the masses, but they won't stray far from their brand.

I’d take a BMPCC/BMMCC over a GH5 any day of the week, especially for narrative work.
Sure the GH5/s may be an easier solution but at a certain point, getting a great image isn’t necessarily supposed to be easy.
But if you want an all in one easy solution, the GH5 will beat the BM cameras every day of the week.
But if you want a more cinematic look at half the cost, the Pocket or Micro wins.

You have a broad definition of the word, attack. By that logic, I suppose you DESTROYED us with this argument.

Just to spell it out, no one was attacking you.
Also, I think we're all adults, and if he was a con, which we all knew there was a chance of it, it would have just fizzled out like a bad joke.

Whether he had a raw video hack or not, the way this thread devolved into a vehicle for bitter cynicism under the subtext of truth-seeking is quite something.

What a colossal fuck up of self-fulfilling prophecies. And the blame should be shared by every one. This never should have been preannounced. He never should have named a surrogate to speak for him, especially since the surrogate admittedly knew only a little more than we did and is fairly new to the forum.
 If anything, he should have taken this to Andrew Reid before bringing it to anyone else. And we all probably should have given the kid the benefit of the doubt... at least for a coupl of days. But grand claims require grand proof and instead of providing adequate proof, he got angry and defensive. But at the end of the day... who gives a shit what some nerds on a forum think or say?

Hey all,
I've just finished up a new grading tutorial especially for any of you shooting CinemaDNGs. It actually works with any CinemaDNG, not just limited to Blackmagic cameras.
In the tutorial I show you how get access to the full dynamic range, richer colours throughout the full range, and all in a curve thats a lot nicer to grade than BMD Film.

Feel free to leave any feedback or questions and I'll do my best to help you out!

I understand...I still will NOT put out something NOT corresponding to my personal criteria. So, be patient, please.
As I understand, you are impatient, I will send you an (crippled) DNG example from an early release from last year. I will post it tomorrow afternoon, so you could get a first idea about my work.
@All
Stop bashing, insulting and any other conspiracy theory, you ALL will eat your words.
It's fine and normal to be sceptical...But after reading some postings of this thread, you will come to the conclusion of "lynch mob". 
As said, NOW I do this for my integrity in the eyes of people knowing my identity. That's all. My interest in sharing my EXPERIENCE and HowTo is completely gone.
Cheers
