Here is my wish list: - phase detect autofocus - internal nd like fs5 - Internal Raw Recording - Under $4000 Has Panasonic ever done phase detect autofocus on their cameras for video? Next camera I get will have really good video autofocus.

Andrew mentioned in the article that what black magic offers is a great codec. Another huge plus is the recording with usb c SSDs. I hope this camera is a huge success so all the other companies (Sony, canon, Panasonic, etc) give us better codecs like raw capure and 60p in their sub 3k cameras! I am tired of the tiny improvements we get with each one of the other camera companies sub 3k cameras. Hopefully this camera changes the industry direction. I think it could! Andrew, Its all good. Don’t let these guys get to you. Love your site and opinions on the industry. Like I read from someone earlier, you are a master of the written word and I look forward to always reading your thoughts! Thanks!

Probably still has 5 minute recording time limit on the 4k recording. Anyone know if it still has this limitation? And yah, definitely looks like no nd filter. Bummer.

Thanks everyone! You guys are awesome!

Thanks Dave, I will check that out. Xume adapters would save a ton of time. Thanks!

Hi, I am looking to get a variable ND filter and I was wondering if anyone had a any recommendations. Anyone using one that they really like? Thanks!

I have the FS700 and when using it in HD internally it is NOT sharp. I never use it. Definitely not 4k Downsampled to HD. The original c100 destroys this camera in sharpness because it downsamples the 4k sensor. I am sure you have heard it before, but I will say that the FS700 is amazing with used with Odyssey 7Q. Raw is awesome. And the 4ktoHD and 4kto2k prores modes are awesome because they are downsampled in the recorder when writing to the SSDs. Totally sharp. But this is with the recorder only.

I have wondered about this for a while... Does Canon continue to make the new 1DCs and original C100s for sale each year? Or are they just selling units they made many years ago and just waiting for them to sell out? Curious what you guys think! Thanks!

Does anyone know if Sony will make it possible to purchase the new microphone holder as an accessory?

Hi Ty, It should fill the card if you trigger the flag in the Ml raw menu to record in exfat. I am using firmware 1.1.3 of the 5d3. Check out ml forum for more info on exfat recording. Your card also has to be formatted as exfat when that mode is triggered.
