Hell I want to know the sensor specs.

Well a lot of us were requesting Atomos to make a 5" recorder. Well BM has made it happen in Spades. I doubt Atomos is happy about this roll out either! Jesus the new Sony A7s mk III is going to have to be a mini F55 to make it at 1500 bucks on top of it..

Yeah true, other than IBIS this thing is crazy good., And to be able to do Raw down the road, probably by the time it comes out, WoW.

This is damn near an Arri for 1000 bucks!

Yeah I doubt Panasonic is happy to see this beast come out! I can't believe how cheap it is for what you get! They are giving this thing away compared to the others manufacturers.

They are saying September, that is a Long time LoL.

This thing is a dream come true for hardly any money! Goodby Sony A7s. You would Have to think it is.

Anyone hear how many mp the sensor is??

This thing is going to kick ass! And Only 1,299.00

The Fuji sensor is Fuji's X own design, the Hasselblad uses a Sony sensor. Big difference.

Not the only place I have read it, but yeah sounds too good to be true.

Speaking of video editors, I thought this Pie Chart is funny but true from Philip Bloom. http://philipbloom.net/blog/musicbedrelaunch/

Oh come on they did change the color of the ND Filter Knob LoL. But that is External.

What do you think the odds of the new BMPCC having it is?? Maybe not at launch but a firmware update.

Interesting info on instant Sony HLG at the bottom of page. https://www.provideocoalition.com/nab-quick-notes-from-sony-on-sunday/

If you go down to the second comment it mentions HDMI Raw output on the FS5.

Here is a test on there between an Arri Alexa and Film. You can see why so many people shoot on a Arri. Pretty hard to tell apart. https://cinematography.net/Skin/skin.html

Maybe it is there to show a size comparison between the two cameras?? I guess tomorrow we will find out?

On the 16gb of ram it depends on what program you are using as much as anything. I use Resolve and it is more dependent on GPU memory, re write stats than removable Ram or CPU Speed. I found hardly any difference in 16 versus 32 gig when I upgraded. Video cards are the answer as of late. So the better the video card the better it works. But it also depends in Resolve how many Nodes you have up also. The less the better. But it takes a good overall system to do it really good quickly. But like has been said, use Proxies if you are using a older rig. And a used Samsung SSD, they seem to be the best, in this age is just too cheap to pass up on for editing 4k often.

Kidz has a graph that I guess proves your point on the 16 bit part on the Nikon. Middle of the second page.

Oh I will not contest that FF cameras doesn't have 16 bits at all. 14 tops, and that is in Photo mode. Heck video we are talking 8 bit other than the GH5, GH5s I could ever afford. And I don't think sensor size has much to do with bits anyways, look at the F65 above. Plus in reality I have no clue the specs of Any newer Nikon. Out of my price range for the nicer ones. But every camera that has Raw output is pretty high Bit rate wise in Raw. But I am not sure what Bit Rate this New ProRes Raw has to be? I have not read the White Paper. I thought I read 10 bit someplace?

That is the 50mp sensor. I am talking the 100mp sensor. And what nonsense, it came from a article that you posted to me. Not what I found.

Sony’s unique 8K image sensor, with approximately 20 megapixels, offers higher image fidelity than any other camera. With 16-bit RAW output, the F65 establishes the gateway to a complete, end-to-end 4K mastering workflow. “Sony’s new F65 digital motion picture camera combines true 4K resolution with an expansive dynamic range that enables a more nuanced reproduction of fine textural and tonal details,” said Curtis Clark, ASC. “Along with excellent contrast and exceptional color reproduction the F65 produces images that have a rich filmic look and feel, providing filmmakers with significantly enhanced creative photographic possibilities.” It was not FF, really not even s35 it looks like. From Andrew's review of it on here. "so the F65’s sensor is the same height as the GH2’s sensor but slightly wider. It also supports cropping for different aspect ratios. The sensor is manufactured in Japan by Sony on a 300mm wafer divided up into 24.7mm x 13.1mm chunks. Each wafer takes a humongous 90 days to process (i.e. manufacture)."

"But, for some reason the Sony sensor used in the Phase One IQ3-100MP has 15 bits worth of data and the ADC actually delivers 16 bits. The Hasselblad 100 MP camera uses the same sensor and also delivers 16 bit data. So, if you need 16 bit of data you can pay a bit more…" Last part of the article. I can find all kind of crazy articles on DPR that try to prove this or that. It is sort of like Bumble Bee's. On paper to an engineer they can't fly. Plus the reason the Fuji is Only 14 bit is that they used the processor out of a X-T2. And it really doesn't matter, I doubt we can see Trillions of colors anyway in 16 bit, let alone afford a camera that has it.

Well I have never used one in the video mode. I have used a 16 bit Hasselblad a couple of times Photo wise. But banding occurs in Photos just like video can. And Photos I have shot on one have been printed out, I am not sure how many bits are in a print, but yeah you have a valid point about seeing stuff Only using a 8 bit monitor, but if it looks like shit it will show up on Any monitor I would think. As to the Padding, well I know Phase One would be sued for claiming 16 bit if they really didn't have it. I mean the people that buy them have the money to sue LoL. All the MF makers all claim 16 bit files. Hmm I lied, the Fuji is only showing 14 bit.Interesting. I am not sure what sensor Fuji uses, maybe their own? I am pretty sure Hassy, Phase One use the Sony sensor for their 100mp backs. First time MF cameras have had a CMOS sensor instead of a CCD one I believe. Lot better low light ability. Yeah looks like Fuji is using their own sensor, and it is CMOS also. Pentax is 14 bit also. Hmm. https://captureintegration.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/IQ_Digital_Back_Range-WEB.pdf This is the Hasselblad I have shot with. It is Not mine trust me. A friend of mine has one. He is really not that great using it, but he can Afford it, and well anything he wants. He is a self made multi millionaire in construction , and he has a Lot of rental units also. I used to have some also for tax write offs. I used to do work for him when I had my Excavation Company. Super nice guy for a person that has Lots of money. Most rich people are not very nice. Most just use you for Their benefit, not this guy. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1244708-REG/hasselblad_h_3013740_h6d_50c_medium_format_dslr.html Looks like the 100mp version of it can shoot UHD 4K and Full HD RAW Video at 30 fps. Probably because it is a Sony sensor.
