I totally like the idea, but i think the current Gh4 is already a winner. I just did a shoot (i make commercials for a living), with the camera with a speedbooster, and a pix recorder on prores LT in 4k, using the v-log profile. I did some lowlight tests and with any lens faster than f2.0, and with the speedbooster xl, i see absolutely no need to go above iso 800. Its a tool, and a very good and cheap one, with remarkable results. This thing is very very good as is now, you just need to use the vlog, a recorder and a speedbooster xl. But its taste also ..
I would like to see from a video pro point of view:
- Same price point (1500)
- full 4k 96fps out on HDMI (or at least 1080p)
- a 6g sdi output, but not such an big deal
- build in v-log, with lut output. and fixed 8bit blocking issue
- 10 bit 422 internal recording option, if SD cards could allow it
- better processing, to have da vinci grade noise reduction, or cleaner sensor
- optional xlr ins, or just a slimmer add on box with the 6g sdi etc.
Sure there are better camera's which are more expensive, there are now newer released camera's. But this will always be, 'c'est a vie'. See it what it is at 1500 euro, and it has been around now a bit ..
Time to step up - Panasonic GH5 must go 6K Super 35mm to compete in 2016
