Comment on the forum Does Sony plan to be stone dead last for video specs much longer? Yes, stone dead last. The Canon EOS R5, Nikon Z6, Panasonic S1H, Fuji X-T3, Leica SL2 and of course Fuji GFX 100 all ace the ageing Sony A7S II and flagship A7R IV for video features and image quality.

And what a solution it is.

Comment on the forum If this is true, we are in for some interesting improvements. The Fuji X-T3 (and most likely X-T4) seem to be getting a 1080/240p high speed video mode.
