I think we could mention Fujifilm too, perhaps not quite as great value as Panasonic (but Fuji's new X-M5 shakes that up! The best value camera currently?) but they do usually still provide very good value and do even better with their series of constant firmware updates. -
It wasn’t a trick question as I honestly didn’t know if any Sony Cameras output anything other than 4k and 8k over HDMI. I wasn’t being smug. I felt like maybe the A7Rv might have but I’m not paying that much attention. And thanks for the Canon update again, not my focus so that’s why I asked. I never stated or implied the target market for the A1 is a budget filmmaker. The conversation above evolved/devolved to comparing brand strategy or updates between companies so that’s the only reason I brought up the extreme value of the S5 as a side note about the generous features Panasonic gives you for the money. You and I may both know about it but so many others have no clue what features they are missing despite the high cost of a Sony. And that’s fine. -

I also bought a set of the Comica WM100 Plus dual transmitter and receiver kits for $55 that runs on UHF. They were in "like new" condition. They have decent reviews, so for that price I figured "why not?" We'll see how they work, but we really don't need anything fancy. As long as the audio is ok we'll be set. I looked at both the Sennheiser G3 and Sony UWP-D11 but I couldn't find any in what I thought was acceptable condition for under $300 and was trying to stay under the $150 price point if I could, since these are for a particular project (pro-wrestling) where they could get broken pretty easy. I'll probably end up buying the UWP-D11 for my own professional work, but these will do for now. -

It's a little bit of a trick question, I think. Sony seems to have mostly skipped 6K for their cameras (unless there is one I'm forgetting). They have 4K and 8K available. As for Canon, the R6 Mark II can do 6K raw internally. Used prices are usually around $1700 so about 2x your S5 kit, but a lot more convenient to use, and with good autofocus - both with native lenses, but also with adapted EF lenses. Spend about $200 more than that and you can have 8k internal raw with the EOS R5. Anyway, there's no doubt that a used S5 is one of the best deals around right now in terms of FF video. But the target market for the Sony A1 is not the budget-minded filmmaker. 😅 -
Last post on this for fear of being called a true Panny Boi. Just picked up a used LUMIX S5 and Atomos Ninja V for $875 total with shipping included. That means for a gently used, 4 year old Camera at $500 I’m getting the awesome S1H sensor and older processing in a small body with the latest firmware update. 6k 12bit raw and 3.5k anamorphic 12 bit raw. Very good IBIS amd no record limits over HDMI. Shitty micro HDMI and bad autofocus for sure. But I can make do with both and am on adapted Mamiya 645 lenses to L-mount and lots of other fun stuff with no AF. Good luck finding anything with those full frame specs under $3k in Sony not sure about Canon but my guess is that it’s similar. What Sony cameras do 6k raw to an external recorder?
