With this aggressive price, in the next few months we'll see if it's capable to shake a little the market. Next iteration of Z9 will probably incorporate some of these features.

Why are you guys in such a bad mood this morning? Is everyone a Roger Deakins now? I'm not a professional, and a camera for less than 3K would be great for me. I film underwater every week, and sometimes I do small jobs too. Nevertheless, knowing that every time I film I bring home half a terabyte of stuff scares me, because I would also like to have the option to make some compromises. Right now I film with a GH5MII, and I only use the ALL-I codec when I'm doing something special. Having a camera that only shoots RAW is too limiting for me. So yes I leave my garage sometimes but Nikon should address that. ð

I'm not trying to defend GU, in fact. If you've seen the whole video, he says that the files produced by the camera in Nraw, H.264, and H.265 suck, especially compared to the same files produced by the Z-series cameras. And that the only usable codec is RedCode. Now, is that true? Who knows. Neither you nor I have the camera in our hands right now, and I don't think it's reliable to just average all the shilltubers out there. Personally, and I don't need GU to tell me this, I find that putting the word "Cinema" on it is just a marketing gimmick. But it's certainly not the tool that prevents you from making films. Great films have been made with crappy gear for a century. Films have been made with the GH2 and 5DII.

Hummm, IDK if this could be an everyday camera for all the v-loggers out there. IIUC according to Gerald, all of the codec implementations, with the exception of RedCode, are more than mediocre and are anyway worse than on other Nikon Z cameras. In practice, if you want to use it, you have to use RedCode, but at 6K@60p, it consumes 470MB per second, and a 320GB CF Express card is full in 28 minutes. Surely the FW is alpha or beta, and then with updates, things will change but ATM, we're shooting ants with a cannon.

I saw the loooong CVP review but if you want a review in a nutshell, this time GU is spot on:
-
This camera is using the same S1II sensor and Lumix was able to squeeze a lot from it. More than Nikon. So, what is Lumix missing to make a camera similar to the C50/Zr? Nothing.
-
That's exactly why they started with an "entry-level" camera. They are re-implementing their algorithms in Nikon's processors and hardware, which are cheaper and more efficient (it wasn't hard to figure that out, given the economies of scale). We should also expect big news regarding other Red features, such as the integration of a global shutter sensor. I imagine that the process will then be a two-way street. A future Red camera will have Nikon processors and technology.
-
For the aforementioned reasons I would call it a Frankenstein release. First try in the pure video centric camera market. Regardless of the marketing monstrous rigs showed, this camera is a pro v-logging tool and essentially a naked run&gun kit. Internal 32 bit audio and ibis are the key points and let's see if Nikon was able to solve its issue with that sensor as Lumix did.
-
I gave a quick look at the CVP review and it seems the S1 II has more exp latitude than the C50. Especially underexposed. Anyway I'm still skeptical about those raw codecs without a fan.
-
IMHO It seems a solid release.
-
If it has the RedCode, I don't see how it could not overheats without fan writing 1.4 Gb at MQ. Is Nikon blending the laws of physic?
-
So it was the camera in that German video but from that photos, it's not a cinema camera.
-
Occam Razor here. My 2c. That guy has an S1R and that video is about ND filters. he made a mess using different cameras and blurring by mistake his S1R too.
-
Looking at those 4 screws... Aren't the same on C70, for the Canon 0,71 speedbooster? (Hence super 35mm) Or a RF-PL Mount adapter? (FF)
-
You're right, 6K and open gate. But even without mentioning the crippled hammer, Canon has always been careful not to cannibalize its own products. Can a C50 be better than its sisters in the cinema line?
-
Still I don't see an edge on a 5 years old FX3. What I'm missing? Maybe RAW? FX3 files edit like butter
-
In the Alps, for clickbaiting purposes, they are still pushing the idea that it is an l-mount camera. ATM the most credible option is that it's just the S1R ðĪĢ That youtuber has also an S1R and he was trying the Blazar lens with ND filter on it. So the blurred camera (that he confirmed it will revealed next week) could be anything
-
-
In the Alps, they are saying that the compact blurry camera could be the new DJI or even a Panasonic (!), because the lens adapter that is visible is a Viltrox PL-L-Mount. They're going crazy ðĪŠ

OMG! What you just reminded me of!

This really struck me. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/vincentsmadja_when-fashion-holds-its-breath-several-activity-7368221093104472064-NL9v

Nor the camera in the photos. 6K@raw in that fan-less small body? Did they do a miracle putting a fan inside that? The German author of the video assured that it's a new camera but not a Canon. WHo knows. According to rumors, in few week we will have: - Canon C50 - Nikon ZR - DJI FF (Maybe) What a mess ð

The rumors seem to be sure that it's full-frame, 33MP, has an Open Gate, and has RAW. It's funny that there was a short circuit between the rumor sites. Andrea Pizzini's sites got the information first, and the Canon Rumors site had to play catch-up. All the info on a Canon camera was on the Sony rumors site. The Canon rumors site seems like Pravda, a direct mouthpiece for Canon (who isn't today?)
