Of all the X-T3s sold so far this is the first failure report I've heard of, definitely rare and isolated incident.
iPhones have exploded in the past, I must say they are not safe to use.

Lovely example of the out of camera colour. Personally I much prefer the natural look to the LUTs which have been thrown onto the footage. I'm sick of seeing M31 and Deluts personally. It makes all cameras look the same, which is perhaps the point.
The ease with which you can obtain a pleasing, cinematic yet naturalistic look is what separates the men from the boys, in my personal opinion. It's why we all love Canon colours, Alexa, Blackmagic, and now Fuji.
Breathtaking shots! What's the DR setting? Have you touched the shadow/highlight tone, sharpness and NR setting?

Not sure if it has been confirmed before but the bmpcc 0.58 speed booster works on the P4K, nice option for the 120 windowed mode ?
Would be cool if there could be a "Speedbooster Zoom" that's variable between 0.58x to 0.71x

Thats great news since I own one. Which model card are you using?
Sandisk Extreme Pro 100MB/s V30
-
Surprisingly V30 is enough for 400Mbps on X-T3.

Btw what lenses are Fuji guys using? An all around zoom and primes for portrait. Also can you adapt the Sigma 18-35 with it or is it better not to? Thanks
All around zoom:
18-55: stablised, good IQ for the price, small and light.
16-55: ultimate IQ, lightning fast and accurate AF
56 f/1.2: go-to porait lens, slower AF
Sigma 18-35 can be adapted, but AF is unreliable. Good for video shooting/manual focusing.

Good Lord it's non-existent in comparison to the 6500.!!!!
A6500 is 39ms in all 4K modes, X-T3 is 20ms in 4K up to 30p, 16ms in 4K 60p.

Tilta's modular system looks perfect:

They didn't mention that the sensor has extremely low yield and it's only made to order, with 6-months lead time...

The new firmware is out!

Bug fixes:
Release NotesAtomOS 10.01
26 October 2018
- Fixed a monitoring issue with some cameras where the areas of peak brightness in images would appear black on screen when viewing using selected 3D LUTs.
- Improved HDMI signal locking to prevent the input from dropping with some camera settings. - Fixed an issue with audio delay where audio was corrupted at selected frame rates.
It's a shame they haven't addressed the HDMI signal level issue causing clipped highlights and crushed shadows.

Here's the full datasheet of the IMX294 sensor if anyone's interested, it extremely technical and details (almost) every operational mode (Quad Bayer HDR mode in a separate datasheet)
It's the sensor used in BMPC 4K, Z CAM E2 and GH5S (customised a bit and called IMX299)

Sharpness ≠ detail
edge enhancement increases apparent sharpness, but does not help with the amount of resolved detail.
DPReview's comparison tool can clearly demonstrate that:
It doesn't have EOS R yet, but 5D Mark IV is the closest we can get.

Was in-camera noise reduction turned down completely for the test? For example, X-T3 has NR default at 0, but it can be set to -4.

You can change every parameter you want in any picture style, make your own ones,etc..
To me it looks like he just went for "standard" which is by default super sharpened and with clarity, so people in the store say "whoa this is supa sharp" like they do with TV sets.
1: Flat 2: Standard without sharpening and clarity 3: Default Standard picture style.
As far as I know, on Nikon cameras "clarity" only affects JPEG stills, it has no effect on video.

Strangely enough this was pretty much exactly what I did the first time. But after selecting a memory location it would do nothing after I selected the folder icon to choose a lut. It only allowed me to do this while playing back a recorded video. After that it worked as expected.
I have two Ninja V’s so it will be interesting to see if this holds true for the other unit also.
Did you turn off Pre Roll? It must be off for the LUTs to load.

More details regarding the sensor code leak yesterday:
IMX235AQR is the sensor used by A7S and A7S II, the newly released IMX435AQJ matches the nomenclature. Also it being a Exmor RS Dual Aspect sensor, it seems to be a perfect balance between speed, quality and sensitivity.

X-T3 sensor SKU NDA lift:
(Note that Fujifilm custom designed X-Trans CFA on top of the sensor substrate, the sensor/photosite architecture remain unchanged)
https://www.framos.com/us/imx571bqr-c-22199
Interesting that Fuji did not (or not yet enabled) the 16bit/6.84fps readout mode for lower noise floor. Newer generation sensors from Sony Semicon are all capable of 16bit ADC. According to the confidential datasheet, 14bit readout mode has 11.6dB higher noise floor than 16bit HQ mode, penalty being more than half the readout speed.

@androidlad where you getting this info? I also asked you TWICE for a source on your "leak" about a 4k 12-bit/2k raw canon rf mount camera on the eos r thread and you don't seem to have an answer. Seems like you're pulling this stuff out of your arse mate..
I've answered that many times before, is the search function buried deep in your arse?

Update from Atomos CEO Jeremy Young:
QuoteDear Atomos Customers,
Firstly thank you very much for your video and for informing us of this issue. Jeromy Young here, CEO and founder of Atomos. I came across your post and wanted to reach out to let you know that this is a bug and is of the highest priority - we sincerely apologies for this issue. The loading of the LUT table in some instances is corrupting and inversely representing some values. In the case you show, this is more than likely the problem. We have deployed the engineering team full time on this and can guarantee a fix will be forthcoming in the coming days at the latest week. In regards to the question of heat, the Ninja V has been tested up to ambient temperatures of 45 degrees C and is the most advanced product we have ever made, it is 1/3 less power than previous generations, when running at full power the Alluminium chasis will get hot to touch, this is normal, the fan will spin faster to ensure the operation is maintained, this too is normal. If, and despite best efforts, there is a fault in the fan or heat sink, as with any electronic product - it will not operate as designed or expected and should be checked. We will be more than happy to work with you, our re-sellers and distributors as Atomos staff to ensure your shoot is not effected! I hope you can all see the love and care that has gone into what we believe is the most advanced Monitor recorder ever built! Stay tuned for an update and happy Ninja-ing ?

Just an update to the red/pink vertical line issue (on far right side of screen). I just updated to latest firmware on the GH5s (version 1.2). There is still no update to the Inferno firmware (still on v8.5). The issue is still alive and well in C4k 60p only. Now I'm getting a little annoyed that this hasn't been fixed. I was told by Atomos there would be a fix coming in the next firmware. I'm now wondering if there will ever be another firmware update to the Inferno.
The only thing that might be delaying it is they were waiting to test it against the latest GH5s firmware (just came out yesterday).
I hope it can be fixed man, there are also issues with X-T2/X-T3 including the signal level issue that affects most cameras. Atomos support hasn't been very responsive at all.

Additional firmware update roadmap revealed for X series in an interview:
* Extended recording time (removal of 30min limit pending EU regulation change)
* Menu system tweak for photo/video hybrid shooters

Knowing Canon something like that is way more likely to be used in a C-series camera.
Latest leak:
10.1MP GS High-Sensitivity Full Frame Sensor (without IBIS)
4K/12Bit/30fps, 4K/10Bit/60fps & 2K/10Bit/180fps XF-RAW (AVC-Bayer)
Dual Pixel CMOS AF
DIGIC8+ DV Processor

Seems like a Cinema EOS/Mirrorless hybrid.

I think it only records fine because the camera has a large buffer (for 30fps stills shooting).
Noticed a strange phenomenon today, when using the touchscreen to pull focus in video during recording, in AF-S mode, a touch would only half focus on the subject (focusing starts slowly and stops midway). In AF-C mode it works wonderfully though, locks dead on almost every time. But AF-C focuses everywhere the focus box goes and does not offer much control vs. AF-S.
Anyone experiencing the same?
