Which lenses will you use if you are using canon for birding? Full frame emount are prohibitively expensive to be used on a crop sensor camera.

How would you compare it to the c100s 1080p?

Hows this for af.

hmmm not sure about this one.

Just saw a cam up on eBay already. Asking retail.

sounds like having good autofocus would assist you then. Plus the 5d iii workflow is a pain. For me the eos r comes close as an option because of the nd fliters and the autofocus. Makes life so much easier. If you pair it with a ninja, the only downside I can see is the rolling shutter.

Even under daylight well exposed it was clear which camera was which with the gh5 having a rather pale green desaturated look to the skintones. The pocket had some vitality to the skintones but was a bit too sharp for my liking. And the alexa was head and shoulders above the others.

He had another video saying how he wouldn't review the eos r. I think after seeing how bad he missed focus here he might want to give that another thought. The skintones for the gh5 look pretty bad imo. Not sure if it was because of the LUT he was using.

They say the 100 mp fuji will only be 4:2:0 10 bit internal I think fuji are intentionally leaving out that 2 for an xh2. Just my 2 cents.

Not judging by people's reports from photokina. Seems like this camera was quite popular. The sensor might be old but its still a 30 megapixel full frame sensor with some crazy nice colours and cheap lenses.

Ha ha good luck to those trying to carry that brick around with them. Makes the 1dx mark ii look portable. It will be some time yet before these cameras get small enough and cheap enough to have any sort of market relevance except as a niche object of desire.

yes i was gonna say if u need xlr then the xc15 is the obvious choice if you'd prefer the xc10.

Plus if he likes vintage lenses and wants a smaller sensor so he doesnt have to fuss around with focusing he can use the ls300 in s16 mode and get some nice s16 super speed zeiss lenses for cheap to give him a similar look.

s16 was the standard for indie film productions for the simple fact that it was portable, cheap and you didn't have to fuss around with focus. You put a wide angle lens on and put it in f5.6 and you are golden. Camcorders offer much of the same conveniences. But I can't help but feel the newer variants do look dedicedly more video. s16 should be max 2k like the digital bolex. Having said that, I have seen xc10 footage which I would say is filmic: That would be my first choice. My setup for the kind of intimate filmmaking you are talking about is to have a s16 digital camera, and have my talent wired with a tascam dl-10 and team lav mics. Gives u great freedom and mobility.

The future is software based. The japanese are not good at sofware that I can tell you. They can make hardware alright but something as simple as a menu system is a no go. It will take the americans innovating in software to get us anywhere near a gimbal-less future. Look at the strides google and apple are making with their algorithms. Can't wait to see where we will be in five years time. These old japanese companies will struggle. too much information and data is lost if it isn't done in camera so the results cannot be anywhere near as good.

I keep saying this is the future of m/43 if they wish to compete with the big boys. Let's see what olympus do come January 2019. Imagine being able to ditch the gimbal and having good autofocus to boot.

I think it has more to do with acquisition rate and the algorithm than the sheer amount of the points.

Have you done a comparison of the prices with lenses bearing in mind most people will be buying used ef lenses and the 99 dollar adapter? . I did the calculations for myself, being the owner of ef glass, and to get a sony it would be more expensive by a couple thousand. So I'd say that's a pretty big incentive for people to continue with canon. But even if they are new to the game, do the calculations for yourself and see which is more expensive for you based on the lenses you use.

Yes its true but if you put ef lenses on an a7riii you are really compromising the autofocus and do you want to do that when you are spending 3k on a new camera? Probably not. Even if you do go down that route, which they did in the video, they put the price for an adapter on the canon bringing it up to 2.5k (choosing the more expensive adapter), but fail to mention that you will be paying 400 for the metabones adapter for the sony to get ef lenses to work lol. It is just a dishonest review, but it doesn't matter because at the end of the day like you said people will realise just how expensive it is to change systems and will bulk at the price considering how little difference there really is between cameras. For canon shooters like myself who own ef lenses getting a sony will literally cost me thousands more than the canon. There is just no rational reason for me to make the move at that price when the eos r gives me some great features that the sony cant match and where the sony is ahead it isn't worth thousands of dollars lol. The c100 is a great camera, I miss mine ha ha.

Well, if like it says in the video they are using an adapter it means they will be using ef lenses, which can be had for cheap, especially on the second hand market. I don't think anyone would dispute that.

It's funny how they say the a7riii is in any way comparable on price to the eos r. Firstly, he says the adapter is $200. Yes, but you can get the basic one for $99. If you are using ef lenses on both cameras, the autofocusing performance with the sony isn't good enough for the amount of money you are spending on the a7riii. You'll then have to spend ridiculous sony lens prices on top of the camera price.

What is odd to me is someone who goes onto this page who clearly doesn't like the camera and interrupts people with his negativity when people who are interested in the camera try to show examples of the footage or discuss it. There was footage there, however limited, so I thought I would be helpful and post it. Now can you please leave us be if all you are going to be is negative. We get that you don't like the camera.

Well the vids shown are of one person in frame - the example i put was with multiple people and you can clearly tell if you watch to the end that the camera gets confused and can't find a face amongst the crowd. I don't think it is near as good as the sonys but for vloggers it is probably acceptable. Camera companies in general are crappy with their software but fuji in particular.
