Yeah, the one they've missed the trick with is recording 4K F-Log internal whilst outputting an HD version of it over HDMI.
Ditto having no HDMI when you're recording HD F-Log either.
Not being able to get a monitor feed when its own monitoring is bit limited  (no zebras are even more of an omission now with internal LOG as, arguably, is the monitoring LUT) is a letdown.
I found stepping through the recording options is a bit painful as its doing one of its fast reboots between each step to switch the displays on and off so it takes a while to get from HD to 4K. It would be good if they could at least let you save your formats in the C slots.
Oh well, I'm nitpicking now

This update (especially the internal FLOG) weakens the X-H1 as an upgrade for X-T2 owners certainly.
But.....
Everyone is looking at Panasonic and Sony to implement ProResRAW but what if Fuji were the complete dark horse here and put it onto the X-H1 ?
They certainly have the track record in handing out additional value long after you've bought the camera and that upgrade would certainly let the X-H1 stretch its legs if they made it exclusive to that camera.
They're probably already at it

It’s back to the nets for you!
I only got there with an unplanned edge which third man fumbled. 

Only about a week  
Been trying to position myself to have strike so I could've hit it myself but I'd miscalculated a no ball or a wide somewhere along the line.

And for it to be powered by a commercially viable nuclear fusion reactor of course. 

I saw your samples from the Lenses section of the 105mm... and just as I suspected, they look great.
Idk, I see everybody’s point with a new mount... I just don’t know if I completely agree.
When you see how tiny the D3400 is, I just don’t know if I buy that the old mount would be too big for mirrorless. 
I guess the question for us is, will the F/G lenses be good enough for some sort of PDAF video focus. They seem to work fine for stills.
Honestly, I don’t know why I did either. This is one of my problems with forums, sometimes I just enjoy the back and forth. 1. It’s entertaining 2. I enjoy learning through debate. 3. I need a hobby to distract me from my hobby. 

I'm going to harass you now like I do with anyone who has old manual glass and a Sony mirrorless and beg you to buy the TechArt AF adapter and tell us what its like
 
They were so slow they'd have tortoise tutting and tapping his watch at them.
 
Nope, they are still performing as well as new ones that would cost you literally 10 times the price.
And are about half the size.
Even if you do have to turn the turny thing yourself to focus them.

Would I complain about having to use an adapter? I'd be a bit of a hypocrite I suppose if I did as I routinely use Nikon's teleconverters for work without any issues. They lock tight and any balance issues they cause are offset by them mainly in my case being used on lenses that need monopod support anyway. 
Would I be thrilled in having to do that on ALL my lenses ? Probably not but I'd be FAR less thrilled having to rebuy the rest of my core lens set in this speculated new mount, especially as I'd have to take a hit on selling lenses that were now part of a 'dead' system. Canon FD lenses are not cheap because of their optical quality and this would be the same situation.
The price of the "upgrade" to a Nikon mirrorless system with a new mount and to remain native would be prohibitively expensive. The f2.8 zooms and long primes are not suddenly going to get significantly smaller and cheaper because they are in this new mount.  
So, if they do a mirrorless that doesn't have an adapter that has "as native" performance for existing lenses then they will have a problem retaining existing users when their current DSLRs are ready to be replaced.
And the issue that they also face is that with cameras like the D5, the D500 and the D850 etc the rabid upgrade cycle isn't exactly what it was 10 years ago. We are at a point with those cameras where its only going to be wear and tear - not performance - that prompts you to upgrade. The double edged sword there for Nikon is they have not only produced cameras with great image quality but also some serious robustness! 
With every week that passes, the other systems seem to be getting more and more lens options. There will come a point where all Nikon have left to bargain with are the fast long primes and the legacy stuff. In the case of the former that's just a niche within a niche and I believe Sigma will step into the breach there and in the latter, well, lenses you've already sold won't pay the bills.
Having said all that.....
There is a couple of opportunities here for Nikon to make things both smoother for existing owners and actually make it very appealing.
The first is to have the option for the mount to be user interchangeable as per RED, Ursa, Kinefinity etc so that we wouldn't have the two points of failure potential and the wear issue using an adapter. If its actually connected to the body rather than the new mount then that will keep everyone happy. For my, and I suspect many others, usage I think we'll be going out to shoot with lenses that are in one mount or the other. For anyone who would want the flexibility of quick change as they will be going out with 3 new mount and 1 old mount lens then Nikon can still do a regular tube type converter.
The second thing they can do is make one of those mount options also encompass a speed booster. The option of shooting video in Super35 with fast primes that are now even faster and still have full AF? Yes please.
Ditto they could also utilise the extra space to produce an electronic ND version of the mount. 
If they see supporting the old mount in terms of it being an opportunity rather than a duty/hindrance then they could have a monster on their hands.
It could be the true hybrid that, thus far has eluded everyone.
Obviously if they come out with something that's 5 grand with two plastic kit lenses and 3 slow primes with an adapter for legacy lenses that weighs more than an anvil and offers just enough AF to not be sued under the trade descriptions act then they can fuck right off

I decided to use it to shoot a press conference the other day.
Suffice to say there was a fair degree of incredulity amongst my younger fellow shooters at the sight of someone using a manual lens thats older than they are!
 

Ah so the P4K does have IBIS! (In Built Instant Stick)

I'm ordering a job lot of this in time for September if anyone wants in ?

Its unfortunately very common and is actually at its most prevalent on what you would think was the safe side of the fence which is in the accredited areas themselves.
Its only happened to me once (touch wood) at a final in Berlin a couple of years ago when one of the stewards stole my iPhone off the top of my peli case while I was shooting the trophy lift over the other side of the pitch.
Funnily enough, it caused me far more of a problem than if he'd took a camera because it had my boarding pass for my flight home on it, it was the GPS for me to drive back to Leipzig because that's where I'd flown in from etc etc
I have quite a few of those dividers and use them for turning an Ikea rucksack into a camera bag but also for quickly packing real camera bags as I swap between different capacity ones so its easier to keep certain lens combos in the dividers all the time and transfer them in one go.
 
 

I believe Nikon will have an active adapter offered for cheap/free. Continuity is a huge thing for them, more than anyone else, and they will deliver. I am 97% certain of this. They have produced a few patents the last couple of years of interesting stuff, and definitely they need a different, more modern mount, but with backwards compatibility. They will find a great solution I believe, and maybe that is the reason of the late arrival of that camera, but as I said earlier, maybe that will be later that it should!
Also, they can go all in in video mode, they are a bit behind everyone right now (except Olympus, and Pentax, are we still consider Pentax a player?!), but they have no cine camera line to protect, and already they have delivered excellent image quality in some models. An amazing Nikon mirrorless with one of the best SOC video, will worth the, around, 3.000euros that Nikon will ask for their full frame mirrorless. Fuji asks 2300euros for a machine that most people will consider vastly inferior to a great Nikon full frame mirrorless. If the video is so so, then Sony will be a better option for true hybrid shooters in full frame, and the rest will happily stay with m43/Fuji, or move to newer, greater, EOS M cameras.
Video is the battle field right now, every one is talking about AF and Video performance as top selling points. Maybe 10bit will be a mandatory spec in a couple of years, the photo quality is quite good already, but video can be improved a lot.

Look, I've found a right angle USB C adapter.
So I'm not going to waste that bit of research and I'm all for getting another couple of pages out of discussing it now 
 

Haha, they could do a revival and call themeselves US⚡BC
 
Really sorry about that terrible dad joke!

Thank you! that is an excellent solution connecting my laptop to my USB C monitor, I was seriously searching for something similar on ebay the other day, but I wasn't sure how I could describe it. I hope I do not have to put my 27" monitor on top of that P4K thread, for monitoring purposes!
There are surprisingly just a few options on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=USB+C+Extension+Adapter+Right+Angle&_sop=15

Yeah but we're bored waiting for it already so have to fixate on something to get the page count over the 100 mark

Even if you have 1tb media? If so, like others have suggested, disconnect the drive from the cable, not the cable from the camera during the shoot.
My mistake.
Don't you feel leaving in an extender could do more damage though? It's something to get caught when you're putting the camera in or taking it out of the bag, something to snag onto your hand as you reach to focus the lens, another connection to go loose midtake (unless you use epoxy). 
My feeling is I will only use the USB if all my other media is full, or if the camera's locked off on a tripod and I can fix the drive onto the tripod leg with some velcro. Minimizing any risks. trying to go handheld with a cable that doesn't lock in won't be worth the risk to me. 
That said, I'm fairly certain someone will make an SSD cage, complete with USB clamp on both ends. 
 
I  imagine playback will work fine.
Thinking about it, I've not seen any blinky lights by the card slot, so it'll  alert you in the same way you know you're recording to the SD. most likely with space or time left on the selected media.
should the cable slip out, you probably get an error message and any blinky red recording lights on the monitor and tally lamp will stop. 
Does the drive have a little read/write led? Most hard drives do, but I don't know about this one.
Judging by this photo, it tells you how much you can record to the media connected to the camera. And it'll be hard to miss if it stops recording for any reason.

I'm just contemplating being sat in front of a 43" 1000 NIT monitor on my desk.
It'll be like Bikini Atoll
