The 1dxmk2 is a great camera to have. 

I will snap one if not for the price. In terms of image straight out of the can. No DSLR can compete with the 4k imho.

The mjpeg is very robust. If you are not keen about grading and just want something edit cut ready, then it's the cam to get.  Canon colours, Dpaf, almost full frame at 4k. Great stills.

The Down side for me is the price. If it was sub 3k then it's worth it. But at £4000 you are better of investing in a proper video cam.

The intro in this video with the slow motion shots on the arm displays exactly what I’m talking about. The skin is completely void of texture. There’s no life in it. And it’s not a question of detail or resolution, just look at her flannel shirt.

I agree. 

The problem with a lot of these cameras is people want Log and flat profile but really don't have a clue on how to treat these files.

Looks very decent. Golden Hour obviously. Regardless.

Including a lens, recording media, top handle and a few other accessories too, no doubt.

Definitely a deal, but I wonder if the Braw will push the market prices up.

Does it really improve the image though? I am looking at alot of the b-raw images, very pleasing to the eye, but nothing significantly different. Braw doesn't really address the  FPN,  sensitive sensor issue with the UM4K does it?

sorry if posted already 

Footage showing the raw codec 

Anyone knows if this cam allows you to import Luts?

What is odd to me is that someone would even bother to post that rubbish. Even if you don’t care about the features I mentioned, the video is pretty much worthless.

All subjective.

Don't think it's rubbish.

When you post clips  skin tones on the GX thread. I often wonder "what is the point? " but  each to their own

So much salt clouded in people's responses. Funny how things change in a shot space of a week

I'm unimpressed by this footage

Each to their own. I think the footage looks good. Reminds me alot of the BMCC.. This sensor has very similar characteristics. I think the white balance was slightly off Other than  that encouraing stuff

They say it will be on the site soon for pre-orders.

Nice. I like this .

...........

By the way, the rant in the last few pages regarding BMD is beyond embarrassing.

Thrust me canon won't ever get my money anymore as i really feel let down by them. If i need more lens, i'll get the sigma art lens. The bmpcc4k is just too good

You guys crack me up with these comments s. Most camera users these days swing like pendulums. these camera manufacturers  will always have one USP that sways users every 3-4 years .Same anti - canon rebels would still be on the look out for what ML can come up with on canon cameras.

I only got the 5dmk3 bcus of magic lantern RAW video and wanted to get the 5dmk4 also only if it gets magic lantern RAW video, but it seems that with BMPCC4k is coming out soon + i really like what am seeing also and the price is just too good, canon will never see my money ever again

They will.

More footage, not from the Blackmagic channel this time:

 

This is lovely. It does have a similar mojo to it's predecessor.  The colours look a lot richer. I like this  A much better footage than I have seen so far.  I would let this camera settle in the market before deciding on picking up one or not.

Really you just have to look how many comments there are on dpreview for this one rumour to realise how popular this thing will be. People don't seem to realise that though this camera may not be the best option for a very niche set of people, if it is priced well, it will be seen as the be all and end all for the majority of people (including vloggers) who are the largest subset of sales. 10bit and no crop is only important to a minority of people. The truth is that the flippy screen, autofocus, color, ergos and touch interface is a lot more important for your run of the mill consumer. Canon knows what's important to the majority of the people. I used to own a 200d (base model dslr) and a a6500. The 200d had a magnificent touch interface like a smartphone. The a6500 felt like it was from the 80s using the interface. Same goes with fuji. For a beginner to intermediate that's what's important, not 10 bit, no crop. I think canon's strategy is correct in that if you truly want good image quality out of a camera you should get a dedicated video camera. Despite everything sony gives you, the image is quite poor when compared to professional cinema cameras (heck, even the pocket cinema camera).  I know, I have seen it projected multiple times on the big screen. What people fail to mention is that yes you may have 4k but the motion cadence, color and highlight roll-off is horrendous. The motion cadence in particular you can't get a feel of until you see it projected. The c300 at 1080p to this date still looks better and you will be able to get it cheaper than a new a7siii. Even if you are doing docs or small productions, the c300 is still better owing to ergonomics. If you need something small, this canon mirrorless is good enough given the ease of use it will afford you. I think canon are still the innovators where it matters.      

Spot on!

This thing is looking more like a Canon 6D mk II than a 5D mk IV to me in a different form. This might be the 1995 dollar one and the 5D mk IV version is yet to drop for 3495 dollars, or what ever the Nikon Z7 is selling for?

More like an FF M50. 

Picked up the M50, its one hell of a camera for a compact mirror less.  i didn't think this Canon R was going to be better than the 1DXII AND 5DMKIV..

Im not sure if I have seen the UMP. But I have seen the UM4.6K for very reasonable pricing. Also tempting, but I have a soft spot for the BMCC/BMPC4K size and simplicity.

Same. 

Seen the 4.6k go for under 3K. UMP still going for 4K.  Not bad prices at all. But the size is an issue for me. 

Again would love a battery grip. Just to give it that scarlet x feel 

I always liked the form factor of this cam.But this upgrade is disappointing. If the improvement incolor is similar to the F3/F5cinema range, then fair play. Otherwise people are better of picking up a bargain used the FS51. I have seen them as low as £2500

This is impressive.

I would love them to make a battery grip to this. 

Specs are awesome.  Bout time these guys made a cam in a proper dslr Format. This kills the GH5 imo. 

I might pick one of these up. 

Love the look so far.  If the image is similar to the bmcc with a 4k res 60fps. Happy days 

In before people complain about 4k having a cropped view and no active depaf in 4k
