Just watched the first episode. Very good stuff. The single take is extraordinary but almost seamlessly unnoticed at same time.

Update: They lost another one. Leica Q ordered 20th March, never turned up. Tracking with DHL stopped updating at same point as last time, at the sorting centre outside of Berlin. The goods have vanished into thin air. That's over £2000 of losses with no explanation. They are now putting it right in terms of refunds, and Matt the CEO is involved. They also had an Sony A7S III on the UK site, spares and repairs for £1399 as the bluetooth / wifi was faulty, but since I don't care for that and thought it might even be fixable completely I thought I'd grabbed a bargain. So I booked it out as part of a trade in. This reserves the item for 14 days. Before I had chance to send in the trade-in camera the A7S III was apparently un-booked with no email or notification, and sold to someone else instead. At this point it feels personal?

Wait 7 years

R = stills and video, emphasis on photography V = lower priced content creator hybrid with emphasis on video C = high-end cinema / film-making tools The R5 II sensor will going in the EOS R5 C II So I now think the EOS R5 V will in fact be an R6 V or R8 V with the R6 II sensor and a more video / youtube friendly design.

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.

"We make so few of them, they'd sell out even in Greenland alone"

Have they thought of a new line because this one's getting old.

I think people should show us the magic sauce. It's hard to judge through YouTube commercials.

He switched to Sony. A full frame R5 V is what we really want, around the $2000 mark.

The EOS R50 V is a loss leader out to encourage lens sales with a huge army of social media influencers and Youtubers. On the face of it, it's definitely a step forward from Canon in the value for money stakes. Sure, they will want you to buy loads of expensive glass for it. Thankfully Sigma is doing some nifty APS-C lenses so we don't have to. I do like the built in LUTs, C-LOG3, AF should be decent although maybe perfect, but it does lack an EVF and IBIS.

Better not get too carried away with the pretty Canon logo. I mean it may be cheap but it's still shitter than a 6 or 7 year old camera isn't it? I mean you can get a Fuji X-T3 with the advantage of no crop in 4K/60p, more codec options and an EVF for the same price.

$3k is a good price but it might be more interesting to wait it out and see what Nikon mirrorless camera gets Redcode. As for global shutter vs rolling shutter... 4ms vs global shutter is probably not going to be very noticeable. The Fuji X-H2S is doing 9ms in 4K and 4ms in 4K/120p and it costs $1500 on eBay. Show us 🙂

How about a fat fucking cunt named Donald. Would make a great soviet villain.

Apparently it has a fan. It's a keen price... $695 I quite like it but never going to be groundbreaking coming from them
