I shot an interview last night with the Pocket 4K and GH5s in Film mode and HLG respectively. They match pretty well after only a few minutes in Premiere tweaking them. I'm excited to see the difference that Resolve will make. 

Looks awesome! I ended up getting the 8sinn half cage right at launch. I wonder if certain Tilta accessories like the sunhood and SSD holder will be compatible. It looks like a standard 1/4" mount.

I just got the Aputure LensRegain for my Pocket 4K. Will report back when I've done some testing. I already have the Metabones XL and Viltrox and I love them. I got the LensRegain for a lightweight remote focus solution for my shoulder rig. Initial testing has been very good.

I agree. And no Panasonic rep, at any level in the company, would publicly speculate about adding such a feature. They know how things take off on these forums ?

TheSlantedLens is doing a live Q&A right now  if ya'll want to air your grievances 

The best IQ comparison I've seen yet.

Ugh! I called them and because I had pick up in store they first needed to ship it out from their warehouse in NJ, and that’s why it wouldn’t come today so they asked if I just wanted it sent straight to my house and I just went ahead and changed that. The representative said my copy was the only one left in the warehouse just sitting there LOL! Well well, at least it’s coming!

Haha yeah at least it’s on the way now. I’m hoping to get some nice weather to shoot with it tomorrow.

Haven’t heard a word from B&H today. Did anyone’s status change?

I got a shipping notification about 5 minutes ago ?

Aware of what? Was he convicted of a crime? We are getting into very dangerous territory when all that need happen is a woman claims abuse and everyone is expected to believe each  and every word she says whilst totally ignoring comments from the opposing party. From what I can see, if something happened she should have filed charges and they both would have their day in court. Until then it is nothing more than a case of "he said, she said". I'm not defending PB... I don't have any unique information regarding this alleged incident. I'm just sick of this pitch fork mentality.

I'm sure some will take exception to what I have written. To them... you can take a long walk off a short pier. I have personally known someone that was falsely accused. Thankfully, there was an investigation and exculpatory evidence proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the supposed victim was full of $h!t. 

Oh I'm in complete agreement with you. The allegation was nothing more than an unsubstantiated Facebook post. I wasn't taking sides; I simply did not know such a post existed.

That's a pretty inflammatory statement...

I look forward to the BRaw update. I’m a little skeptical it will happen or should I say, I think you early adopters might be really happy you bought the camera when you did because I could see a price increase if it gets updated. 

I doubt they would do that. It’s a free update to the Ursa Mini and BM have never charged for updates.

Have mine on pick up at superstore, still waiting for confirmation but they close in 10min so will def not happen today! God, I kinda wanna go to bed haha

Haha it's like Christmas Eve my dude. I'll have to wait for shipping, but excited nonetheless.

B&H just charged my card!!!!

Holy crap they just charged mine as well! Thank you for the heads up.

Anyone who ordered from B&H heard anything? Also if I call them will they tell me what number in line I am? I got it April 9 right after announcement. 

I haven't heard anything yet from them. I figure they're probably swamped with all sorts of orders since they've been closed for over a week. Hoping to hear from them soon either way.

Hey bro put a good word in for me as well!! I pre ordered from hot rod while grant was still giving his speech! They didn't even have a picture up yet! 

Haha same! They had the OG Pocket image as a placeholder for my order ?

Seems legit. They have posted pics on Facebook of their camera setup at the zoo (basically handheld with a Samsung SSD). As well as shots of it on a crane for use in a k-pop music video.

 

Not to be spiteful, but where's that guy that argued these Samsung SSD's would never work and it was all marketing hype? ? But seriously this is very exciting. I'm glad BM sent this out to a regular user to showcase its broad uses.

With the newest GH5 firmware, V-log can be used in photo shooting. Is there any advantage of using log over other picture profiles? 

Absolutely none. Shoot raw format for an advantage in stills.

Can you see the clap? If so then it is easy! Just line up the spike of the audio with the moment you see the two hands meet. 
But guessing that is what didn't happen.

This. And let this be a good lesson to take your time with your prep. A good clap into all mic's and in front of all cameras can really save you some headaches. When I'm working alone I always say what I'm doing out loud so I don't miss something. "Cam A rolling picture and sound, cam B rolling picture and sound, sound rolling." *clap* Then a few seconds to breathe and double check.

Good luck with your edit!

Wait, I'm confused. Isn't the GH5 a DSLR?  How would I use that  for long form (I assume you mean no time limit recording) and what lenses would have to buy to make that work. I've heard from just about everone that speed boosters just don't work as well and are never as good as native lenses for M4/3 systems. Now I'm a little confused. Am I missing the boat somewhere?

Opinions on the GH5 are pretty nuanced. Some people think the camera sucks without a speedboosted lens, others think native is the only way to go, and others think both have their place. Some people think the AF is atrocious, others think it suits their needs just fine. Check around this and other forums. Find GH5 users whose work you like and see how they use their camera to give you an idea of the benefits and detriments.

It's a 2 trick pony.

But they're 2 very good tricks ?

I shot with a set of 3 C100's exclusively with a past employer. When I left and the company was looking to offload them, I begged to buy one because I'd grown so fond of them. There is not a better get-out-of-your-way camera  with a high quality image at a low datarate than the C100. If you don't absolutely need 4k, I wouldn't hesitate to pick one up at their current used prices.

What possible reason would the D850 owner have to switch to Nikon mirrorless (or any other) when their existing lenses wont work nearly as well on the new camera or they have to sell their lenses and buy anew? 

We still don't know how F mount lenses will perform with Nikon's mirrorless adapters. Say they perform flawlessly, then the change to mirrorless will be pleasant for most users. We'll find out in one week.

Not a technical comparison, but these guys saved me the time to do my own testing months ago. Haven't looked back since ?
