60fps is really handy when you shoot handheld and non stab like i do most of the time. also helps naratively somtimes for sure, it slows thing and the viewer can take his time to watch.
so i like having tools that can do more than one thing. the micro is tempting for sure, but the bmpcc6k is really tempting too at the moment

Just curious... do you use a lot of slow motion in your films?
i do. i see your point coming.
But it seem that the camera is not gonna be cheap and what i want today is a camera that is versatile, that can do 60fps as well as 23.978, that can do 4k at all these fps because it is really handy beeing able to crop in post if needed.
why put such money in a camera that cannot do so many thing ? you might need it someday and this day you're gonna say "crap this sh.t camera can't do it"
raw is fine, 8bit, ok sorry but no go. i would need at least raw dng in 10 bit at all fps to be interrested.
from what i see this camera is definitively not for me, i'd rather buy a cheap black magic micro.
to me it's kinda anachronic.
i hope sigma proves me wrong and maybe the sensor will give us the most beautifull image, why not dreaming. but i doubt it

if they also can fix the fact that eye tracking can't track glasses or shades

i was saying that it's hard to record internaly 16bit raw since it's a huge amount of data. would require 2 ssd bay hot swapable for long takes. that's why it is external i guess

you don't need to use the dials with the fuji, you can set up the wheels to do the same.
switching from manual to af is quite simple since you only have to move one button
you can use ff lenses on fuji with an adapter, that's what i do coming from canon.

I still get info that FP will be priced under 2000$/€ (including tax)
i think you should talk about this on the fp thread

i just started dreaming fuji unleashes external raw ability for the bm video assist

the biggest issue is the non internal RAW recording capability.
That's a huge disadvantage.
16 bit raw, we're talking huge amount of disk space needed here

looks really really good. colors are beautifull without any grading ?
and the af looks pretty amazing and pulling looks pretty soft

it's funny how this camera seems to be underestimated

It's a lot smaller than v-mounts of the same capacity and has loads of dtaps for lights, monitors etc, as well as a dummy battery. It seems very versatile to me, and isn't much more than a v-mount.
You do lose the ability quickly swap though, and of course with V-mouny you have more capacity options.
vmounts don't have to be big.

i don't really like the shape it has, must be ok on a tripod but handheld... sure it has a lots of connectors, just the shape doesn't feel right to me

This looks really promising!

hmmm quite expensive for what it is.
no a fan of the shape it has, there are others vmount batteries that are as handy and more convenient i find shapewise

Are we expecting a new BM camera? I order the P4K last week!
they updated the ursa broadcast.
don't worry no pocket FF 8k yet ?

npf batteries are pretty handy too
i am wondering what sd cards are fast enough to record the best braw quality.
good point is that you can record on external usb-c ssd. i wish it was easier to integrate like in the ninja v

as you seem to see what's the future will be can you tell me the next lottery numbers ?
you don't know much about the camera and you allready know it's gonna be a success, well you seem to know far much than we know then.
i prefer s35 and 6k is convenient, even better in low light.
i prefer big cameras as they are more steady. too small and or too light isn't good for me. i shot my entire life with ff film cameras or medium format cameras so even my xt3 seems so tiny to me.
