Maybe they meant their OWN FX3 rather than Sony’s.

Flirted with the idea of selling my S1 and go for the S1RII but eventually decided to keep it for life. Parting with this kind of image quality in such a tank built body for 800€ is a crime 🙂

There is something to be said about how my S1 still comfortably covers all my needs 7 years later...

4000 is the second native ISO with Lumix!

It looks like a cool project. The images seem pretty nice. It's nice to see Cinema DNG still being used in new products.

Yes, that's the one. K&F Concept 58mm True Color Variable ND2-32 (1-5 Stops) ND Lens Filter, Adjustable Neutral Density Filter with 28 Multi-Layer Coatings for Camera Lens The key phrases are "True Color" and "ND2-32 (1-5 Stops)". They sell ones that have a wider range, but aren't as high quality and will have greater colour shifts over the operating range. Having hard stops is the key to preventing you pushing it too far and getting into the range where the performance is poor (which I think is inevitable of this design, so the hard stops just stop you before you get there).

Thanks.. To be honest I just find it baffling that everyone is throwing the word "cinematic" around and yet all the colour grades look like they haven't been converted from LOG to 709. It's one of the easiest changes you can make in post to take your footage from video to cinema, and yet hardly anyone does it. Pushing as much contrast and saturation as you can was the best film-making advice I ever got.

My Sony RX1R had developed some coating marks on the screen. Turns out it just peels off to reveal a pristine glass LCD underneath. Indeed the upper layer is a factory-installed layer of anti-reflective plastic! Daft decision from Sony and effects a lot of models... But at least now if it happens to you, you know what to do.
