Hard to buy that. There are barely any M43 sensors on the market. Is there really another out there with the same oversized dimensions and dual ISO that we somehow haven't heard about? 1 MattH reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kye 2,067 Report post Posted October 1, 2018 I'm not sure if the lack of adjustable screen is due to it being a 'cinema' camera where the world is expected to bend around the camera instead of the other way around, or if it was a size or cost measure, but the idea of it being a 'cinema' thing fits with the great attention and effort towards image specs and (relative) lack of effort towards ergonomics for hand-holding. I must say that as someone who shoots in whatever conditions I am given, a tilt screen is worth a huge amount to me, enabling up to a third or half of my shots, either with a low angle or a high angle to get over the heads of the other tourists in front of me! We're really seeing a merging of devices with cinema camera specs in an almost DSLR form-factor meeting DSLR and mirrorless cameras with video specs almost at cinema camera standards, but the two haven't merged yet. It'll only be when we get a camera that shoots RAW but also has IBIS and a half-decent grip that we'll have achieved unification. I'm waiting for that day eagerly! 1 hansel reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course, so-called "purist" don't like it. I think they should go back to super 8 and 18fps.

There could also be balance/tuning issues. The lack of basic operating skill evident in the video doesn't suggest a high degree of competence in the setup. There are also fundamental limits to smooth gimbal operation without stabilizing arms. Most gimbal review videos avoid showing how bad it can be, and how bad the operator is. This explains brief cuts, shots in open areas and lots of slow motion. In a word, another useless youtube gimbal review.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be as simple as two bins with sensors in them next to each other with sensors identical EXCEPT for the part number. He didn't say the SENSORS are different, just the PART number.
