No one cares.

Sony is far from focusing solely on FF. They've released like 7 APSC cameras in the last 4 years it feels like.

Saw an interview with a nice lady from Panasonic confirming its a different sensor than the S1. "Similar" but different.

I don't need / want 6K right now, but everything else? Gimme!

A camera that hasn't been announced, has no specs, etc. isn't a competitor. You need to actually exist in order to compete. When the A7Siii does exist then it'll factor into the conversation.

No, thankfully! What's really strange is I rendered optimized media to try to see if that worked and there was literally no improvement! I've posted on the BMD boards, hopefully someone can help! This only seems to be an issue in multicam for me. When just playing the timeline it's silky smooth even with some graphic overlays and color tweaking. My laptop is 2 1/2 years old but should still be able to handle this, right?

If was a terrible idea to upgrade in the middle of an edit! ?

I can't really see where there's a problem

I'm not sure how to do that. I'm not the most computer savvy ? I used to be able to do multi cam with effects with no trouble though! And I think my system is pretty good.

Updated to Resolve 16 from Resolve 15. When doing multi cam with 1080i footage it drops frames like crazy, whereas with 15 it was as smooth as butter. I am using a laptop with Intel Core i7-7700HQ @ 2.80GHz, 16 GB of RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060. Any ideas / suggestions outside of using proxies?

Indeed. Someone as skillful as Mattias could use any camera, but the Canon EOS R helps him achieve his vision easiest. The $200 challenge should have shown people that it's not just about specs. We're incredibly lucky to have so many tools at our disposal, whether your budget is $200 or $2,000,000 there's no short supply of cameras that can help you create your vision. The issue with Canon, and I think some people maybe forget this, is not that their cameras are inadequate but that they take features away that hinder creativity while every other manufacturer has done the opposite, at least to some extent or another. Do you need 24p? No. Do you need DPAF in 4K? No. Can you use excessive crops? Yes. You can still create works of art with these cameras, even if it hinders your creative vision. But why should you have to, when you can use a GH5, X-T3, a6400, or hell even an old T3i? You shouldn't have to deal with those limitations because Canon decided they wanted to segment the market more and take away features in their lower end models that they've included for years.

That's an unnecessary shot. @Mattias Burlingalways emphasizes that it's the right camera for him and his work flow, which is more than fair. Just because it's not an ideal camera for you doesn't mean it can't be for him. We all have our preferences and what's important to us. For him SOC color is more important than other specs. And that's OK. I don't see why it bothers people.

I'm guessing early next year they'll announce the GH6.

The FW code is really ridiculous. I get why they do it but a 4 week wait?!

Which is why ultimately I'll probably wait until the end of 2020 I think keeping them is the smarter move for now unless you're in a position where you need to "upgrade." Better to see how things play out I think.

The S1 is $300 cheaper right now in the US (maybe elsewhere too?) I'm not sure though if it's permanent. Yeah, that's one of the reasons I haven't pulled the trigger. It's nice to be able to adapt lenses but I'd like to have some decent afford native lenses to use too.

With the price reduction it's really tempting but the cost of lenses is just way too hard to swallow. I'm so impressed with the stabilization. What a feat, really.

I've seen a lot of Canon apologists but this 24p stuff might take the cake.

Their reason is obvious: they don't want filmmakers using these cameras. I'm not really sure what part of that is hard to understand. I'm sorry but your argument is quite asanine. Just a few posts ago you argued that Canon might have to pay extra license fees for 24p, which is ridiculous, and now you're acting like an expert? The mental gymnastics you're doing right now to argue what is blatantly obvious is insane. Seriously, you wrote all that man to excuse CANON, who has a history of handicapping their cameras! Please, think that last sentence over a bit. All that, like the reason Canon cripples their cameras, goes without saying. No one said otherwise.

Why is Canon even releasing EOS M cameras at this point? What was the last lens they released for it?

That's the thing, every camera company has all the necessary code already written. The hard part was finished years and years ago and now it's just a matter of going in and changing fields to lock or unlock things. They could literally change a zero to a one in the code unlock 24p.

<brain exploding gif> If Canon is at a point where they have to cut 24p as a cost cutting measure then they're on death's bed. That's not the real reason, but still. "Guys, we gotta cut expenses." "Let's cut 24p." "You're a genius Roger, you just saved the company." Canon includes 24p in their sub-$200 Vixia camcorders! ?

Canon accidentally sets off filmmaking revolution, 10 years later people act like there hasn't been a decade of people using these cameras to shoot films.

IT'S CANON! The company that has a history of removing features even as they charge a premium! They're not saving money cutting out 24p, BUT even if they were it'd be fucking indefensible and NOT "smart" at all. Seriously, what planet are you living on?!
