sqm Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Source: Mirrorless RumorsApparently the reason why Samsung delayed the new firmware release for the NX1 is quite...surprising:A source who shared correct Samsung rumors in the past told me that Samsung has "rewritten" the NX1 code. I don't know how deep those changes are. We will likely see that new NX1 code with the next firmware update. Let's hope this means we can expect some great improvements!

agolex Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 If it's true, it's probably more likely they're going into the raw direction after working with the Magic Lantern folks. What an awesome and unique step that would be. We'll see. Marco Tecno, IronFilm and Don Kotlos 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Even the fastest SD cards don't have enough continuous write speed for RAW fullhd, not to mention 4K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Members Mattias Burling Posted April 28, 2015 Super Members Share Posted April 28, 2015 Did i miss something? bmpcc records RAW on sandisk extreme Pro SD´sYeah not even U3 needed.

Taranis Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yeah you can record 12bit raw HD, I forgot to mention that I was thinking about 14 bit uncompressed raw. However, 4K raw is still out of question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, 4K raw is still out of question.Not if they do it out the USB3 port Honestly, just hoping for better RS in 4K, center 4K crop, higher bitrate options in 1080p, and a 1080p HDMI out option.

DigitalEd Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I hope for10 Bit would be nice.Real usable HD out the HDMI portBetter HD quality4k slomo at any speed is better then noneLet us pick 264 or 265 or at lest HD in 264 so we do not have to trans code HD.Fix the audio betterFocus peaking that you can assign to a button to turn on and off for when using a finder covering the back screenMuch better low light focus for both stills and videoRaw would be nice but that might be pushing it some for this camera and how much space would that eat up..ouchWish list for next version two card slots one for photos and one for video or over flow and much better cleaner low light performance, Two XLR audio inputs or a add on for that that ties right into the camera that is very small and lite.More lens lots of them Marco Tecno 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricardo_sousa11 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 We should look into processor related improvements, since it has one of the best processors around, what I think the improvements can realistically be : Reduced Rolling ShutterHighter 4K Framerates6.5K videoChoice between 264 and 265RAW HDTrue Log profileI still dont have my NX1, but will be buying mine in may, and boy, this camera is getting more and more amazing.

leeys Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Yeah not even U3 needed. Raw HD on for example the Micro in 30fps is 65mb/s.That's U3 speed, BTW. Greater than U3 even (going by the existing nomenclature that'd be U7 if it was ever defined). The Extreme Pro wasn't rated U3 on release because that spec didn't exist then. My recently-bought Extreme Pro now has a U3 logo on it.I keep on harping on forums that some older cards are capable of faster speeds even if they don't have the logo because said spec was not out when the card was released. Sometimes you just have to test first. Another good reason for not using newly bought gear the next day for a big assignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tugela Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Reduced rolling shutter? (+10bit, +high bitrate 264/raw)Encoding is done in hardware, so the camera will never be able to do H.264 encoding. It is not the sort of thing that can be added with firmware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomazK Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Somewhere i read a interview with a Samsung product manager and he said that they use a programmable chip in the nx1 and that it can be configured based on the task.So 264 could be added.

anchoricex Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 seriously have to tip my hat to samsung for giving a damn about their video consumer base and implementing better and better firmware releases, I can only hope for big things for this next one. if any samsung liaisons are reading this, thank you for listening.
