Yes it's true. I escaped 6 months of drizzle, flooding, and unworkably shit cloud covered light to do an actual shoot. We will find that out as I brought that with me as well. The first time it has seen sunlight I dare say the S1H is a bit cleaner in low light at 6400+

I often look at the 4 or 5 cameras in my bag and think “this cost me far too much and they’re all the same”. Then I have a cup of tea and try to forget about it. Yes it’s true, the full frame market is overcrowded and image quality differences between them are getting smaller. What about selling 3 or 4 of those cameras, I thought to myself… And consolidating them into one giant mad one. So this happened… https://www.eoshd.com/filmmaking/inspecting-the-fuji-gfx-100-and-having-a-cup-of-tea/

When you get hard edges like bright white pixels on a completely black background, it'll look more jagged on a camera that is pixel binning or line-skipping - that is aliasing, and it creates a distracting shimmering effect when the subject or camera moves. Moire throws up colour patterns from a similar process. Very fine detail can shimmer or take on a rainbow pattern. No the Alexa and RED don't have any of this, even if you look close. When you have to downsample from a high resolution stills sensor like 100MP to just 8MP required for 4K, you have to throw away a lot of pixels or find a way to merge these pixels into larger pixels. The GFX100 is doing some snazzy downsampling but it isn't reading the entire 100MP, that would be too slow for 24fps and create too much data to handle. I am happy so far with the 4K though. There is nothing quite like it!

It seems to be switched on without an off switch in Quicktime Player and Mac OS Finder. Bozos. Fuck ing hell

I find Mac OS automatically seems to convert HLG footage to Rec709 now as well. Tim Apple needs to get it sorted.

My Mac is obliterating the blacks in H.265 mode from this camera, mega crushing going on. I'll upload some original clips during the week, be interested to see what is going on there and whether this is a common issue.

GLS are a nightmare. I posted a camera to Berlin from the UK once and Royal Mail handed it off to them. Didn't go well, basically sat in a warehouse undelivered. They are the worst courier service in Europe.

On close inspection there is aliasing and some jaggies on high contrast edges, some moire, a bit like an A7R IV or D850, but it's more or less under control for the most part. Certainly helps to turn the sharpness down in-camera.

I have that battery too. It's decent, but a considerable weight penalty.

Edit: It's right there in the data sheet... https://www.sony-semicon.co.jp/products/common/pdf/IMX461ALR_AQR_Flyer.pdf See readout mode 5 at up to 30fps 12bit. Resolution is exactly 3882 x 2912. So if the GFX100 sensor can bin like that, why would it heavily line skip instead?

Remember this? Didn't that refer to X-Trans IV / GFX 100? Or, as I speculated at the time - a medium format cine cam GFX H100? https://www.eoshd.com/news/fujifilm-hint-at-44x33-large-format-gfx-h100-filmmakers-camera-open-gate-4k3k/ In terms of the image in 4K on the GFX 100 I am impressed by it and I wouldn't say heavy moire or aliasing... More like barely noticeable and very detailed, especially with real world (of course you can always see some zoomed in on a chart). I heard the GFX100 reads every pixel horizontally as well, in 4K. Not sure about the line-skipping. Does it tell us in the Sony data sheet?

There's the format conversion Metabones as well where it expands the image circle from a Nikon lens to fit the medium format sensor. Same look as full frame but 100MP and a Fuji. Can't do that with an A7 or Z6 yet

Can confirm there is no 4K recording in full frame 35mm crop mode, it's medium format only. Not that I mind. Punch in magnification during recording works. It's not too heavy and I like the ergonomics. ALL-I H.265 10bit at 400Mbit. Remind me did X-T3 have ALL-I mode in H.265 or Long GOP only? A while since I shot with it. This doesn't feel like a big X-T3. Feels more in the X-H1 mould. Which is a good thing. They got rid of the hipster dials for ISO and shutter speed (GFX 50S also had those) and it's more like a DSLR.

The internet allows you to make better decisions on what you DO buy. However it never stops, there is always something new and better on the internet. I find Flickr and YouTube compel me to buy stuff quite often... Flickr is a good way to find out if you like the look from a certain lens, but there are always great shots with every lens, so it's hard to be critical browsing through them all. While YouTube is very personal, very charismatic, it's like the great team of salesmen the camera companies never got themselves

Small penis compensation rig.

Agree, but sometimes peak current draw is too much for one battery, I believe... Especially if you have powerful spec like 8K going on

How about 28-70mm F2.0 RF and be done with it?! Ok it's massive and not 24mm at the wide end but it's a marvel of lens engineering.

Canon FD 24mm F1.4L It's practically a Canon K35 cine lens.

Yes it is but the stills/movie dial lever is round the front... which is utter madness.

I don't think the final specs changed or brochure is wrong, it is merely demonstrating how massive the sensor is compared to normal DCI full frame 4K. But definitely something for Fuji to consider in a firmware update if sensor allows it. A7R IV 4K bins nicely from 60MP. I will see whats up with F-LOG. Nothing that a good LUT or in-camera settings change can't fix Eterna is an option. Did it have Hybrid LOG Gamma?

They have to distinguish it from thin, light X-T4!

Is it just the Mi 10 Pro with 8K? Or do the other 108MP Xiaomi models do it... Mi Note 10 is only £389 in the UK. This is the same as the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro on DXOMark. But is that one 4K only? Wish they would simplify the naming and cut down number of models.

Wow it looks very good but my Mac just melted trying to play it. H.265 8K? Gonna need a bigger boat!

Why didn't you get on with the Z6?

How does this work then? I thought stacked = DRAM mounted on back of sensor.
