Honestly, I am stoked on this. If I somehow get my hands on some extra cash I would love to pick up a used E-M1 mkii or one of these E-M5 mkiii. I shoot mostly on a GH5 and having one of these as my second cam would be killer. Good AF for the times I need it and the Gh5 for when I need 10bit / 4k60. Olympus is doing good stuff. Plus M43 is a killer mount and I love the sensor size.

For the past 3 years I have been working full-time as a volunteer with a non-profit organization creating videos and motion graphics for them. For a majority of this time I have been living in Thailand on the field with them. This is small snapshot of some of the projects I have created with them. Gear –Canon C200 [17-55mm f/2.8, Sigma 18-35mm f1/.8] Panasonic GH5 [Sigma 30mm f/1.4, Panasonic 15mm f/1.7]

Yeah, not surprised we haven't seen a physical camera either. Just curious if there has been any other talk of it or rumors of them still pursuing it.

I know this an old thread, but I was curious if anyone has heard any whispers about this? Honestly, I got pretty stoked when I was taking the survey, but haven't heard anything...

Thanks for the feedback! Its from the same take as the other on the bottom so maybe I messed up the grade on it. I'll have to take a look. Great catch. Thank you!

I have the compact 40 1.33x It's not horrible, it really isnt. I've really enjoyed mine, but will probably sell it cause I don't use it enough for my actual jobs. I've used some messy b-roll for some paid gigs but nothing solely using them. If you want to play around with anamorphic it's fantastic. If you aren't obsessed with sharpness they're fun. If you don't need quick focus theyre easy. All in all a really fun piece to mess around with.

Not sure if this is the best place to post... But, here are some frames from a shoot I did today with the GH5 as my b-cam (A-cam was a C200- not pictured here). Love this little camera. Open to critics as well if you guys have any.

I've used the Panny 15mm f1.7 and the Sigma 30mm f1.4 and they are plenty good. I even used the Sigma 18-35mm NON speedboosted for some good results (just waiting on that variable ND adapter). I would personally love to see something like a 25-50mm f/1.4 or f1.7 that would probably never leave my GH5 if it existed.

I had the Fuji XT-3 for a while and switched back to the GH5. GH5 has bad auto focus, you have a micro 4/3 sensor, etc... BUT man this camera is incredible. I missed it the instant I got the Fuji. Fuji definitely has some plus sides and really great color. For photos I prefer the Fuji but the GH5 does great. One thing nice about the Fuji is the AF in 120fps full HD. But again I can get over that. If you do run'n'gun / handheld or anything of that sort. I would go GH5. It's a killer camera. Once they get a variable ND Micro4/2 to EF adapter the GH5 becomes a killer camera. Also don't fall for the noise around the depth of field not being shallow enough, it's plenty good.

Has anyone tried the Fotodiox ND throttle adapter? I've only seen stuff for the Sony version. I'm not super interested in a speed booster but having a "built in ND" would be amazing. I'm really hoping Kipon releases a drop in ND adapter like they did for Sony E mount. That would super ideal to have electronic controls and the ability to remove the ND.

I have already switched to FCPX. Absolutely love it. I haven't tried Affinity for my photos yet, but I'm tempted. I think that might be my next move. I'll just echo everyone and say we still need a good After Effect replacement. Honestly my After Effects work (mostly motion graphics and some VFX) is my big income. I'll have to look into what Main Frame is doing I guess.

I love seeing this stuff. I've been waiting for some one to come up with a Canon EF – micro 4/3 variable ND adapter with electronics installed. That would be a game changer for me. A GH5 with "internal" ND.

This is incredible, mate. Would be really incredible for Panasonic cameras, etc. I love this!

Thanks for input and help @webrunner5 I am going to see what I can when I get State side. Leaving Thailand in about 20 hours so I'll pack it up and see what I can once I get there.

Would a stretched cable require us to purchase an entirely new grip?
