@androidlad
I am going to ask that you put a link to your sources.
I've let you continue for a long time as a lot of your posts contribute to our understanding and inform us about leaks.
But we need more transparency from you and a better way to validate the info which we have no way of knowing if it's authentic.
I also think if you are passing off other people's info as your own, it isn't really ethical (like with the Graeme Nattress quote)
And if you are the source, leaking inside info from a company you work for then that is most likely illegal.
So... the URLs from now on please, or a ban.
It's up to you.

My review of the film:
https://www.eoshd.com/news/review-of-the-sigma-fp-4k-raw-film-sin-sin/

I wonder if Sony will put S-Cinetone in the A7sIII/H or if they’ll just release a new version of the already weird colors, keeping the tradition of non consistency alive. This matters much more than 8K raw imho.

One thing I know I have and that's talent.   Talent in creativity, photography, vision and getting the shot.   You can take that any way you want.

What?  This is crazy talk.  Right?   So now you don't trust a guy on Facebook's with a resume and links? 
So you only trust people face to face?   
This sounds like jealous snowflake,  "you don't have what someone else has" thinking. 
I'm not a big shot director or cinematographer but people like you and @MrSMW motivate me to get to the big time just to prove a point.
 
 

The majority of the EOS is anonymous in nature.  This comes out of the mob mentality that base their opinion based on inner circle of influence. 
Sorry but your post is weird and creepy just for the fact that you think you need to know who I am and what I look like. People downvote my comments, get confrontational, say I live in my mom's basement and then ask for my real name, company website and link to films/tv I've worked on. You don't see an issue with that?
I could very well be working on Stranger Things (before lockdown).  If so what would that prove about my comments?  or what would you do with that information?  I have no doubt someone would make a call to people they know to affect my standing on said show.
 
Just like most of us on here. 

Logged on and what do I see
Yes another topic waylaid by Super8 causing arguments
If you keep it up, I will have to do what's best for the forum as an informative tool for filmmakers. And you know what that means.

Maybe then you should stop posting on this forum, telling bullshit about stuff you now even admit you don't know.
And you're in no position of shouting.

Sony has confirmed that the A7S III is finally on the way this Summer, likely in July to coincide with the big Canon rivals - EOS R5 and R6.
I have some more information on what we can expect from the new flagship full frame mirrorless cameras.

In the latest issue of FDTimes there's a very interesting interview with the Japanese director behind the Sigma Fp short-ish film

The fact that this beautifully designed and engineered camera doesn’t overheat thanks to it’s clever use of a heatsink puts many other manufacturers to shame. They should thus take notice and pay their respects to this simple yet extremely elegant solution. It makes me even want to buy a Sigma fp just to support the company, even though I don’t really need the camera.

Very sad news this, I have fond memories of my long gone E-M10ii. A dream camera would have been the GH5S sensor in a E-M1iii body with IBIS, 10bit internal, 4K 60p and the PDAF of Olympus.

That shortfilm is second to none compared to every ”branding video” I’ve seen made with cameras in this price range. Really impressive.

Went into the garden to test the new firmware
I opened the CDNG's in photoshop, shot at full-frame with the Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar® T* 3.5-4.5/28-70, I'm happy with the results.
 all shot at 25 fps with firmware 2.0  
 
 

 

Yeah, the only short film that I can think of that even begins to compete with it for me is A Different Beyond that Fujifilm used to promote the video capabilities of the X-T3. And that short had Matthew Libatique as the director!
Sigma went all out with this short film. It's a genuinely compelling story being told by a talented filmmaker and cast and crew. The colors coming out of the FP look like something you'd see in a painting. Subtle, but rich.
Sigma did seem to confirm that they're working on a new model in that same interview with the site that shall not be named and that they were aiming to continue to improve the autofocus on that model. Pretty vague overall, but it'd be nice if that were to turn out to mean that Sigma might switch over to Phase Detect autofocus at least.
Like I said earlier; Sigma has a beast of a camera already with the FP. They could cause quite a storm in the industry if they implement the various key adjustments here and there that customers are suggesting for the successor model.
