FF can look like APS-C if stopped down. Crop sensors can look like full frame if the DOF+FOV equivalent is possible. Its all about the DOF at a given effective focal length. FF starts to become impossible to emulate with combinations like a 24mm at f/2 or 35mm at f/2 or 2.8 on FF. Those are magic.

I've been itching for this cam as well! Slight image trade offs from the 1DC for huge usability gains like autofocus and sharp slo mo. 

One thing that I have yet to hear mentioned on here is how beautiful the underexposure of the 1dc or 1dx mjpeg can be. It just has a nice shadow rolloff. I shot at the Georgia aquarium in 4k last week on a family trip and noticed how clean the images came out. very cinematic feeling, never got this with the 6d or 5d without overexposing and then trying to bring it back down.

If the manfrotto Sympla thumb controller can move the auto focus box around that'd be a great setup for single user gimbal work.

somehow Bloom has been able to make canon colors look like sony. Otherwise beautiful work and a lovely camera.

the PP are implemented after the raw encoding right? That would mean no matter what, the dynamic range of a PP is going clipped before true clog

interesting,  I wonder how the HDR in video works.

mind = blown.  

I'm in Birmingham, AL Dave. PM me sometime if you're in the area or need another 1dc!

The glare is the only downside to the 501. For me, the hood doesn't really help. I did buy an iPhone 6 Plus matte screen protector that can be cut to fit. It makes the 501 much more usable outdoors. 

1DC is sweet and does have mojo. As far focusing, I find it tough coming from a 6D with Magic Lantern (used peaking) The small hd 501 on top is perfect for it though, and makes up for a bunch of the downsides like zebras, peaking, false color, LUTs for log. I like the full frame mode too, it takes to post sharpening really well.

It seems like it's a bit bottom heavy since it always wants to roll back to center. I'd move the body up slightly, which may make the tilt a bit off. Sometimes you'll just have the mind the best comprise and let the motors do the rest. 
 
For what it's worth, I made this on the ronin-m with no lens mount and an unbalanced camera. It was my first shoot and I didn't have a chance to read on balancing.  It still performed pretty well.

This 1DC is sweet.I just had a day of hating CLOG until I found a LUT that works properly. This is over exposed by about a stop and then brought down in post before the lut.   The FF 1080P file sharpen nicely too.

Just bought a 1DC for an affordable price.  Pretty pumped to start shooting with something that seemed so out of reach a few years ago.
