Thanks man! Just trying to make it more entertaining. Honestly, I havent done any tests yet with proxy. Ill let you know. The camera is fine in low light. Unless a7S3 has some great video features like 4k at 60 and 10bit, then the a7Riii is a really great option i think!

Also, I shot eveything on a7Riii using pro color 3.0. I had to dial it in a bit as the color science seemed a tad off

The official review is live! I had fun with this. I'm trying something new...

Ahhhh! You’re not making it easy for me! Lol.

Yup. Still hasn't been beat. Literally...nothing else can beat the camera in 2017 from canon. 1DX II is a little bit of a downgrade...but Im considering selling my 1DC for one just for the dual pixel AF.

Some rolling shutter tests.

oh god. believe me...it can be that bad. a7s in particular sucks so bad without fine tuning

I’ll do more tests. It’s not that bad. My white balance was off

First look and impressions. So far I really love this. Sony has really refined the camera. Andrew, I give you some love for your profiles in here!

Step brothers.

Yes! I still have my 1DC and 80D. Ill compare the AF to the Dual Pixel AF..and rolling shutter for sure on both 4k FF and S35 as well as 1080p FF and S35.

My a7RIII comes in today for me to do reviews on. What questions or tests do you guys have that you would like to see?

I love your enthusiasm!!

I spoke to a Panasonic Rep at NAB this year. The day before NAB Casey switched to the GH5 and talked about it in his vlog. The Panasonic rep told me that as soon as that video went up, their pre-orders on the GH5 went up 20%. That was in 24 hours back in April. I can't imagine the number of sales that have been done just from Casey since then.

I made this profile before the EOSHD Sony 3.0 profile was out. If you want the best image use his profile. It looks the best.

The thing that blows my mind is that no amount of money can buy you a small dslr sized camera, with a flip out screen, that shoots at least 4k at 60fps, and also takes stills... has good autofocus. I don’t care how much it costs. I need a SMALL dslr sized photo/ video hybrid with RELIABLE AF. It’s a HUGE need in the marketplace because of the YouTube revolution. If the GH5s shoots 4k up to 60fps, and has reliable autofocus... I don’t care how much it costs, I NEED that tool for my job and there is literally not a single camera that fills that need right now.

Can we please just have DPAF. Please God that’s all I want lol

I love it! Great setup! The struggle I am having is the constant battle of production value and execution. I have found that when it comes to camera and tech reviews, you sorta have to have good production quality because the people watching it expect it. But the vloggers and YouTubers who are literally making millions of dollars a month have crap production quality because the vast majority of their viewers couldn't care less.

No I haven’t tested raw yet. I’m not that interested in it unless I’m directing a bigger budget thing. But if it’s bigger budget, I’ll just rent Arri anyways lol

This is exactly what I was talking about. Great color science and features in such a small package. This camera really is a dream for YouTubers I think.

Thanks man. I think for my style of shooting the 1DX II suits my needs best. I’m considering selling my 1DC and getting the 1DX II with the money from that. I’ll be sad, but it’ll be a nice upgrade I think for me. Especially as a “YouTuber”. I need stills and I need video. I want the flexibility of having 4k and having a higher bit rate. I don’t want or need Log because for youtube I shoot everything baked in to save time. I also shoot handheld often so having minimal Rolling shutter is great.

@DBounce Thanks for your insight!

Finishing a commercial today that I shot on it! I still rent the bolex. My buddy has a full zeiss S16 lens set that goes with it. Love the image on that camera so so much. Are you still loving your 1DX II even with your GH5? What do you find yourself using most?

Lol! Good comparisons. Both cameras are the sports cars of cameras..

@EOSHD_Twitter has talked about both cameras quite a bit and I have recently become fascinated with the Leica SL for video. Obviously, the 1DX has the Dual Pixel AF, but has anyone had experience with the Leica SL autofocus? How does the internal 4k compare? The SL has a 10bit 4k out...They are both similar in price. Curious to know your thoughts. It seems that the SL was overpriced and overlooked pretty quickly in the video market...but that peaks my interest as the 1DC and digital bolex were also overlooked. I'm not sure if my interest in Leica SL is simply camera lust or not....probably lust.
