Anyone who even thinks about using BMPCC6K for Netflix production is braver than I am. Good fucking luck

S1H is a much better featured cinema tool than 1DX III, that's just the truth. Way more going on with it. Much better ergonomics. You cannot even look through the viewfinder of the 1D X Mark III in video mode. Let's get real for a moment. Ok it has Dual Pixel AF. It has internal raw. It has 10bit. Nice colour. LOG. I commend Canon for those. I love the pro stills side of it as well, and the build quality, and the ergonomics for photography too. The lens situation I agree with... Things are stacked on Canon's side there. No contest. Panasonic's pricing is on the high side. Leica's is astronomical. Just to get a 50mm F1.4 is a big effort. This needs changing fast. Sigma L-mount glass is on the chunky side. It's DSLR glass, not a ground-up re-design taking advantage of mirrorless. That needs to change too. But there are some nice options out there for cheaper...Sigma 40mm F2.8 L-Mount, just an extra $400 with the Sigma Fp. There is the 1.5x crop APS-C Leica 23mm F2, turns your S1H in Super 35mm mode into a very capable run & gun tool, minimal size and weight, 4K/60p. On the Fp, that lens makes a nice replacement for an X100F or similar, for street photos, AF is ok. Price can be around $600 used if you search around for a while. Panasonic 24-105mm is a match for the Sony E-mount rival and about the same price. So it's not all bad. Well done you passed the math class. You can't just assume every new Canon camera takes a 1:1 crop of the sensor. Who knows what the 1D X Mark III will do. Pixel binning, 1:1, oversampling, it could be anything. Could even be 5K readout from 6K sensor and a smaller than 1.3x crop, like the old X-T2. You just don't know.

I think it will use the XF codec for 10bit because MJPEG doesn't support higher than 8bit?... They have had to go to HEIC for 10bit stills and dump JPEG for that, and same with video, they will have to dump MJPEG and go H.264 based or H.265. I like the idea of a raw shooting "1D C" but still more interested in Sigma Fp and Pana S1H. I don't need AF that badly, and when I do, got my Sonys and Fujis. Hopefully Canon internally have had a good talk to themselves and decided "enough with the video crippling, let's get real" and this is turning point...

This is my take on it. A lot of hype out there. I doubt that Canon have done a u-turn on their policy to cripple video on EOS cameras... and I don't see RAW coming to a future EOS R. But who knows... time will tell!! https://www.eoshd.com/2019/10/canon-join-full-frame-4k-raw-party-with-1d-x-mark-iii-joins-panasonic-s1h-sigma-fp-and-nikon-z6/

What makes it better than the S1H? The Canon badge? Or is it the $6000 price?

I like the look of Classic Neg very much. Glad it is coming to the other flagship Fujis. X-Pro 3 looks like a good upgrade if you want that rangefinder form factor, and don't mind extra size (and cost) over very capable X-E3, but the big one I am waiting for next is the X-H2.

Full frame 4K raw for $1800 in small stills camera. Unique. What other cameras do that?! It's like an official Magic Lantern with bullet proof reliability. Very happy about the price, it's Sigma being typically competitive there.

We are turning into a "truth is what you can get away with" kind of society.

?

Hold on, what new technology has Sony brought to the table in the last 5 releases.... Not a lot. The A7R IV is a hybrid cam if ever I saw one... Very much in both the stills and video camp, that one. The A9 II is clearly aimed at pros and sports, but again there is no reason why it shouldn't do better video. It doesn't even have S-LOG, like the first one. No new sensor. Barely any new features. May as well put a big sticker on it saying "don't buy me" The A7R IV and A9 II are headline releases, a great chance to show off their new sensor technology and next-gen video specs. From the A6400 onward, it's as if Sony pressed the pause button. A6400, A6100, A6600, A7R IV, A9 II all very boring and just 1 out of 5 with a new sensor is not a very good strike rate for Sony's most precious components. So either they are holding back to cement profit margins and protect the FX9, doing a Canon... Or they are holding back until the new advances are ready. I don't buy the latter, I think it's the former... otherwise we would have at least had X-T3 sensor in the A6600 and 10bit in the A7R II. It's 4000 euros! Sony staked their game mainly on specs... And now what reason do we all run out and pay $3000-$4000 for a new camera... The fact it has a different feel to the joystick?! You're the one pedalling conspiracies. Never do you seem to get round to supporting the daft theories with any proof, either. In one sentence you say 24p is left out due to a cheaper stripped down image processor... In the very next sentence you say you never claimed 24p was left out because of processing. A contradiction if ever I saw one. Back the drawing board for you!

Very interesting find. Some nice details about the sensor in there as well. They were considering 8K as far back as 2010.

MCU?

Have another bump from me

It's mainly for internal recording, not much quality gain going HDMI Try Nikon N-LOG first, and if that doesn't look right, try C-LOG.

1015 posts is very tolerant of me. But I can't take any more! Buh bye.

Here we go again I am very tolerant. How else would an idiot like you still be a member of the EOSHD Forum after several years? I very much feel a strong responsibility for the good contributors here and for my own sanity. Forum membership shouldn't be a given, or a race to the bottom. It is really a meritocracy - like whose edits get to remain on Wikipedia. A knowledge-base like this one will drown under the weight of so much backchat, rude manners and stupidity, that I don't agree it should just be completely unmoderated. It's not the same as a real life society, or a democracy. If you don't contribute to the forum, then you should go. It's that simple. When you run out of road or exhaust the patience of the other users, you should go. So @thephoenix and @DBounce I think you should consider voluntarily going somewhere else. Your days are numbered if you carry on here like you are doing.

Took my iPhone XS Max (obsolete already!) along to the Apple Store the other day and put the cameras side by side with 11 Pro, the XS Max had the more pleasing colour tone at least under the lights of the Apple store, whereas the 11 Pro was shifted more towards green. Other than that, the XS Max had a SLIGHT bit more noise, but the 11 Pro looked like it had more noise reduction, with a more plastic texture. So you get an ultra wide angle camera and an image which in some ways is worse. Call me a luddite but not sure I want to spend 1400 euros upgrading every 12 months for this kind of deal. Especially when there are 48MP quad-bayer smartphones sensors in $500 phones from other manufacturers. I remain an Apple user, but they really need to up their game. They have some of the best and most natural camera results around and very good CPU, very good computational photography engine and the best mobile OS... But damn, give me a better reason to upgrade...

My answer is pretty simple, I was asked where the footage is, and I told you. As for the rest of it, you'll only end up disagreeing with me if you spout idiotic comments on a daily basis. Oops. Too bad for you.

It is quite reasonable to wait until a camera is actually finished before wanting to see the footage from it. In terms of the specs, full frame 12bit Cinema DNG RAW in a very small stills camera is a revolution as far as I'm concerned and you should be welcoming Sigma for the first time to the video market. Another innovative manufacturer has joined the area of imaging you are most interested in, and all you can do is moan about not having any footage yet from a pre-beta firmware version. I put up with stupidity like this daily for 8 years. I am entitled to ask you to shut up. It's my forum. I also put up with almost daily hostile feelings from people who feel cross, one way or another. If you are complaining constantly it saps my energy and makes me want to do something else. I don't get to control when the footage gets published, it is quite reasonable for a camera company to decide that, not me.

They are stills lenses with breathing and a huge mark-up.

I'll tell you exactly why Sigma had the camera there with only the second firmware ever developed, pre-beta... More like an alpha copy of it. The image quality is far from final, and they dictate when they want to release the images, not me. Do you know when your driver's license gets full of points because you're reckless and have annoyed other road users - that's your forum license @DBounce - definitely one of the more annoying, rude and biased users I have to respond too on here. So be careful, as bad drivers get banned.

Worse. Less detail, more moire and aliasing. The DPReview chart of 90D shows you what to expect. Compare it to the X-T30 or X-T3 and it's even more clear how mushy it is and how much moire there is going on

I have original clips but can't be bothered even to share them. Nothing to see here!

The SSD is powered through USB C, same as connecting it to your laptop. Same as on the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K / 6K.

Good to see Magic Lantern going strong, and great seeing Berlin through fresh eyes Also cheers for the nice comments about the shooter's guide. Have you tried the 3.5K crop mode yet?
