    I've probably said it before but whoever makes an HDMI input version of this tiltable EVF will make a fortune.

    Sorry, was joking.

    Good luck getting that St. Bernard into a cardboard box let alone getting it into a bikini.

    I've got one and I have to say its pretty nice.
    I don't have a fancy phone so it acts in lieu of that for holiday stuff and although the video is the main story, the quality of the stills are actually quite good.
    One complaint I have with it is that it seems to have a habit of reverting its settings out of the Pro mode which is a pain in the arse.
    I never use it with a phone so maybe that has something to do with it in terms of sync or something but its intermittent.
    I've just got some magnetic ND filters for it as it definitely becomes a bit too camcordery in bright light.
    The hyperlapse stuff is fun and the stabilisation is good in terms of being a tripod substitute and some slider type moves but walking with it is definitely going to give you some bumping unless you are disciplined in doing the silly walk. As I use it on holiday, the fact I'm wearing shorts is enough to make me look ridiculous without doing that as well.
    It struggles a lot in quite low light of course but these grabs are from footage I did in less than broad light and its does an alright enough job for what I'm using it for, especially considering the convenience factor and the tricks it can do.

    I got quite nostalgic there seeing those vintage cars as I regularly went on Sunday trips to the beach in one of those as a child. Sadly, it was the Ford Anglia and not the E Type Jag !
    Got to admire a man with the self assurance to still be able to dole out a suspicious "what on earth are you up to?" look at someone else when he's the one casually taking his Dalek for a walk.

    Shirley worrying about photographers shooting video has been a problem since the 5DII? I wouldn't have thought the difference between someone shooting h264 and RAW would make it any more of a concern.

    Judging by the discounts and cash back incentives on virtually all of the brands, I don't think any of them are having a particularly bumper time sales wise.
    The problem for Nikon is that the L mount is building momentum through the upgrade of the S1, the announcement of the FP, the availability of the new Sigma lenses, the release of the S1H, the upcoming Sigma FF Foveon announcement and I suspect the new Leica SL isn't far off being announced now either.
    None of that makes the Z6 a bad camera of course but Nikon need to wrestle some of that momentum back and a statement on when the upgrade is actually going to happen would be a start.
    There's probably never been a better time NOT to buy a full frame camera though as within a few months Sony might be along with something that could blow everything out of the water, the Sigma FP might just be the full frame version of the original Pocket Cinema camera or the S1H might tick every box of being a full frame GH5s, or... if none of those things come to pass then the deflating prices of the S1 and Z6 etc will have no doubt continued anyway and they will become fantastic bargains, particularly used.

    I didn't realise you wanted the precision option  
    Simplest would probably be a velcro cable tie behind the clip on the transmitter to strap it to the mic then.
