Problem is that he is not recording so all the canon has histogram but goas away while you record a video. 1Dx III does it would be cool if it finally stays on.... at least this one has zebra

 

Really? My experience with Canon cameras is limited. Sorry if I spread misinfo, just assumed he was turning it off and on to show it has it.

Wow the overheating is bad.

 

How can anybody go into a paid shoot, knowing they will at random intervals have to wait 10 minutes for the camera to cool in an OFF state, before only being able to record for another 10 minutes?

Don't think it will be exactly Netflix approved with that behaviour.

It's wild how Canon and Sony have seemingly switched places.

Where exactly? it has zebra but did not see any waveform or histogram while recording but I could have missed

My bad, it was histogram. About 5 minutes in.

The R5 has zebras, but does it have waveform monitor?

Gordon's video showed waveforms. 

No RAW video in 4K. 8K only, according to Gordon.

I guess it might be a problem for those who shoot events with long speeches/workshops and so on. But I think that very few people need 30min clips. I have never shot a 30min clip in my life (unless maybe an accidental one). 

All I shoot is 30+ minute videos! 🤣

Based on what? 

30 minute record limit. 

The Canon Cripple Hammer lives! 

Affinity Photo is decent, but ultimately I switched back to Photoshop because it was just easier and more convenient. 

In Vermont the R5 would be 4132.94 with sales tax (6%). Most states have a sales tax of 4-7%, though a couple have no sales tax.

When you buy a camera in the US from B&H at $3899 what is the final price including tax? Depends on your state?

Correct. I'll often go to New Hampshire for larger purchases to save on taxes, since it has so sales tax. 

I get a lot of Donald Trump ads 😭

I'm sure it's a lovely lens but Sigma and Tamron are putting out just as good lenses for a lot less. Hard to justify paying that much. 

How does the situation with Olympus impact Panasonic's commitment to M43? 

Is there a reason why they've stuck with DFD for auto focus in video, even as competitors have moved away from it? 

Do they plan to continue to have two branches of the GH series moving ahead? 

I don't know that you're going to be able to do much better than a lav into a recorder under those circumstances. If they were sitting in a public place or something, you'd be able to figure out places to hide it, like in a plant or something, but it sounds like your subjects will be moving? 

Maybe some kind of stereo mic? But the background noise might make that difficult?

Yes, the files remain on the card until you delete them.

 

Why the hell haven't we all been using them then?! 

Is there a back up in the event something happens and the picture/video doesn't transfer? 

I don't know that there will ever be a way for them to remove the lag from HDMI completely. It's a consumer connection, you know? It just wasn't designed to be used the way we're using it. It'd be great if I'm wrong though! 

I hope for the best, but people are way too optimistic. There HAS to be a catch. It's Canon! 

Honestly if you can't handle a little lag when using an external monitor you probably shouldn't be using anything with an HDMI out because there will always be a little lag, no matter the recorder / monitor. Either learn to live with it or use a camera with SDI out. 

I film a lot of action stuff, so I only use an external monitor for interviews / corporate / commercial work to nail focus and see things on a larger screen. I'd never use a monitor for my wrestling or other sports work. 

I think it depends on what program you use to edit, but most people I know transcode it to ProRes for editing. 

Fuji OIS is decent, but you're not going to get Panasonic level stability. It's really hard to explain how good Panasonic stabilization is, you need to kind of experience it. It changed how I filmed. 

I busted out the GX85 today for personal use. I love it so much 🙂

It's hard to judge how big it is from pictures since you have nothing to compare it to but that seems pretty slimmed down for a camera that's supposed to be extremely powerful and should require quite a bit of processing power. Was expecting something along the lines of the S1H. 

The forum looks fine on my phone. 🤷🏻‍♂️
