New year New Phase: 4th january

I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here but what's wrong with 4K@60p being APSC? Full of S35 cinema camera out there.

I don't understand why the Prores option is not a FW upgrade like the Vlog is for the GH5. What is the point of having a different machine? Maybe Apple doesn't allow it. Also, what is meant by Prores? RAW?

Here we are...

Here of underwater videos are hardly ever seen but as they say: never say never. The trailer for a new YT channel about diving melts in the Mediterranean Sea. All shot with a GH5 and a GH5S with several wide angle and macro lenses plus wet lenses and CRI 95 Keldan lights. Enjoy

As i understand, you changed several recording devices but the mic is always the same? That noise seems to me like a bad electrical ground or impedance problem.

Panasonic announced the S1H in 2019 followed by the S5 in 2020. Then for the S5 it made updates that transformed the camera. But they are now old cameras considering that Canon and Nikon have since migrated to mirrorless cameras. Canon that has been sleeping for years has been the most aggressive one with cinema cameras like the R5C and C70 that also have internal RAW. IMHO it's to be expected that Panasonic in 2023 will make a new iteration for their models and who knows there might be the RAW innovation for them as well and certainly PDAF which for the market, right or wrong, is their achilles heel. We shall see...

Unless there is some further leak, whatever it is, we probably won't have official news until the new year.

I'm viewing it at 4K on a 4k display. Clip @14" doesn't have a "pleasant grain" and even at 1'. That's noise. Tropical water in 10 ft of water means low ISO, high fstop and maybe a ND filter. This clip too has noise on the blue i.e. @57"

@gt3rs did you clean those clips? All reviews said that RAW is very noisy but you clips seems perfect. This clip is very noisy with several artefact on blue and black

Yes but it would not explain why the event is with Panasonic

It is impressive how the AF chases the animals and is not distracted by the bushes in the foreground. At one point it seems to focus on the logs but then follows the cheetahs into the bushes naturally.

I shot 99% underwater and I saw this test/comparison of R5 vs R5C. Demo reels contains artifacts and are incredibly noisy on blue and black. I would never buy a camera seeing those clips. https://www.backscatter.com/reviews/post/Canon-EOS-R5-vs-R5C-Underwater-Review I know for sure these camera are better than that. Maybe they were misconfiguration somehow.

Do you have a small clip of the cheetah with AF?

Dozens of influencers for days at an event, two companies involved, and no word on... This makes you realize that 100% of the rumors/leaks we read almost daily are nothing more than artfully created fake leaks.

We lost, for sure.

Guys, the thread has derailed into a wall-to-wall nonsense. If I wanted to be polemic, I should advise, those who think the patent is meaningless, to offer themselves to Nikon as consultants in the ongoing legal battle 😇 Actually, if the patent has withstood for years several lawsuits filed (not by my mother) but by the likes of Apple & co., it means that it is evidently well written. Mind you, I am not agreeing with Red. This is a classic case where the current patent system demonstrates all its limitations and actually prevents technological progress to the detriment of users. At present, the only real question that makes sense to ask is: Is it possible that a company like Nikon went off the rails in this matter without taking into account the history of previous lawsuits (perhaps misguided? She tried?) or is Nikon in posses of information that we do not have?

@Andrew Reid wouldn't you like to pass the buck with a nice review of the GH6 and, maybe, one last artistic shot?

Sorry guys, I really don't get you. Where are all these problems on low light? I'm not an influencer nor an ambassador so I can only watch other people's GH6 reviews but I shot with Lumix camera underwater in though conditions since GH1. Among the countless GH6 reviews I've been watching, this has real world examples and compares GH6 directly with Sony A7SIII. So ATM it's the only review I found which shows different camera clips side by side. BTW this guy tests and uses a bunch of gear but basically he is a Sony A7 guys. Well, by his own admission, GH6 images are way better under most conditions. While images sucks for both cameras at 6400 already, GH6 surrenders to A7SIII at ISO 12800. Repeat with me: I - S - O 1 - 2 - 8 - 0 - 0 my question is: who shoot at ISO 12800? Hereafter some bookmarks for GH6 Vs A7SIII: 9:05 onwards GH6 resolution is better. 15:20 onwards ISO test. GH6 wins hands down up to ISO 6400. 27:00 onwards DR test. Again GH6 is better. Other facts: AF sucks but it's usable under some conditions. IBIS is the best out there. probably the best cheap anamorphic camera of all time. Tons of terrific ergonomic features for video users (as all the other GH camera) So when I read so many rants about it, what I'm missing?

90 minutes of applauses! I just don't understand why it is assumed that EVERYONE aspires to have a FF camera. And that therefore those who don't have a FF camera must necessarily suffer from the small penis syndrome. It's just the premise that is wrong. In my own small way (deep technical diving), I wouldn't think of taking an FF camera on a dive, which, with its housing and porthole, is as big as a washing machine. The M43 is the perfect compromise of quality and size. For decades sports photographers have used APSC cameras because it was the right tool for the job. And for eons cinematography has been Super 35mm. Now legions of youtubers have decided that if you don't have an FF camera you're a loser. Then of course I respect all those who need a FF sensor for their work but they should stop explaining me what I need... Regarding Gerald, if you're a Youtuber for a living you play by the rules of your job and shut up just like all the other workers who clock in in the morning.

First -and only- UW reel on the internet taken with the Canon C70 showing the capabilities of the camera.

Thanks for your first hand review. May I ask what type of jobs you find yourself working for most frequently?
