I’d definitely go with 2 (or more) AIDA cameras fed into a BM Atem for this. They are cheap and capable and the setup is easy to use (either live streamed or recorded - in the latter case there are, of course, multiple options either to record each camera separately and mix in post or simply to record a single output from the Atem). I use 2 x HD100A but there are other more expensive options.

“The new S5H autofocuses like a charging male goat”. That’s the headline I want to read.

“Professional” if I was permitted additional words - convenient, useful, adaptable, manageable, cost-efficient… I am not a professional broadcaster but for my use they are super little cameras especially when matched to the Atem. https://aidaimaging.com/hd-100a/ I have two of the cheapest model.

I use them for delivering recorded and live lectures & meetings (using Teams). The Atem handled the green screen side of things so I had the Keynote slides behind me.

I think you are all off the mark. "Billy" is a poor google translate of the Japanese word for "out of focus". It should read like this: "and supports 16:9 out of focus 4.8K60P video"

I don’t trust the IBIS in my GX85 that much any more. I had a problem with it moving when the camera sits stable even when off that I documented before in another thread here. That was fixed with a firmware update that I somehow had missed but to my disappointment the IBIS sometimes does that even now. Not so pronounced as before but it does it unexpectedly and I found others have had this problem with their GX85s so I don’t think it’s my specific camera but rather a general problem.

Are you not glad? Hau else are you going to shoot your TikTok videos if not open gate?

Yes if you check it out let me know how it goes!!

Thanks for the detailed info on the 700D. Had no idea. I'll be sure to check out some vids on YT. Incredible to think there's so much the ML team have pulled out of these little cams :)

To be fair @kye I was answering @leslie question about what it was he had seen. And also saying that it would not be sufficient to cope with that amount of movement you are describing which by extension would not be able to protect the camera. Back in the mists of time when dinosaurs and DJI Phantoms without integrated cameras roamed the earth, we all used a product called MoonGel to try and offset the vibrations coursing through the direct mount to the GoPro. MoonGel was originally a dampening solution for drums and when placed between the drone and the mount was quite effective in reducing the jellovision produced by the GoPro getting vibrated to within an inch of its life during flight. If you are fashioning/modifying a mount for the scooter then you might want to look at incorporating a similar solution to reduce the vibration transmitted to the camera. With regard to the GX85, the big danger will come if you ride along without the camera being powered at any point as without power the sensor will be left to flop about which will potentially cause a problem. Worth remembering that the GH5s came about in large part, apparently, because shows such as Top Gear wanted an IBIS-free version of the GH5 to deal with the vibration issues shooting in cars causing a problem with the image of the IBIS version so if you have got a non-IBIS camera then I would probably look at that as an option.

I’m still very intrigued by the Canon 70D. That organic ML RAW image, but with DPAF.

Is anyone else finding the skin tones and general image to be very video-like? More so than even the xt2? Every video I’ve watched today actual was like an ad not to buy into this system.
