Back from the dead? 8 reasons why I am warming to the tiny Canon EOS RP
Andrew Reid replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
If it's 1080p and no C-LOG, or other silly restrictions then obviously whole thing becomes pointless for me. But the rumours seem pretty certain it is 4K and not too gimped next to an EOS R. For stills, it'll be nice but since I take most of my stills on an iPhone anyway, I won't get it just for that ? -
Canon EOS RP specs leaked, features 26MP sensor and 4K video
Andrew Reid replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
LOL! And at every corner you get robbed! -
RIP, EOS R. Read the article

They won't be, it will be capped at 150Mbit 10bit internal and 60p will be external only, as you can see from your WEX info.

Anamorphic is best suited to smaller sensors and even full frame can be a challenge sometimes. The entrance pupil of the lens needs to be very close to the back of the anamorphic. Medium format lenses are usually very large and you will need a long focal length (100mm+) to avoid vignetting. An Iscorama 54 with a Pentax 105mm F2.4 might work. I have these and will try them next time I'm reunited with my GFX 50S.

By the way I was told 4K 60p is full frame on the S1R. Pixel binned but no Croppy McCropface

Parallel-world test!
-
The fine gentlemen are wrong. I could select 4K60p in the internal codec menus and record to SD card, at 150mbit

No worries. Let's hope his translator translated the plug. You never know how much gets through The colour science should be interesting on this one especially when it gets the 10bit update. Immediately apparent it beats Sony!

For long-time GH1 to GH5 shooters like myself, loyal from the beginning, at a time everyone else was shooting Canon, the S1 is a milestone. I have a bit of an emotional attachment to it already, being the first Panasonic full frame camera. It is not my first L-mount camera though. I’ve been shooting with the Leica SL for a few years now and it is still the most clean, ergonomic, minimalist full frame mirrorless body. It cannot, however, match the sheer size of the feature-set on the £2000 Panasonic S1. Read the full article

Vimeo legal blunder leads to $10 million fine in Italy
Andrew Reid replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Very interesting. Italian "justice" at work?! Or mob rule? -
What is the point of the "safe harbour" law? Vimeo may well be asking themselves the same question! Read the full article

I agree with all this, yet I am still a tad disappointed with the camera. Maybe we are just ultra-spoilt. Or maybe we are just not wildlife photographers!?

The handheld hi-res sample of a palm tree from DPReview look mushy, no real resolution gain from 20MP if you pixel peep the JPEG.

I had a nice used bargain from them this week, when I picked up a Fuji X100F for £700. The description said it had heavy marks on the screen. When it arrived, I just rubbed the screen with my thumb and the marks vanished Let's keep it this way. If word gets out that their testing team should use an occasional spit and polish, the bargains won't look quite so compelling! They are aiming at 1D X II and D5 users with the pricing. "Buy Olympus... we're cheaper and lighter" I'll be very surprised if the tactic works. And for the enthusiasts, they are not going to pony up $3k for something with worse specs than a G9

I can only see it being of interest to wildlife shooters, who need the very good weather sealing and light weight lenses, extra tele-reach without the bulk. Whenever we want greater subject separation for sports that means much heavier glass. An F1.4 Olympus tele would be like the size of a Sigma 105mm F1.4 so 1.6kg and bulky. They have no choice but to maintain the concept of Micro Four Thirds and that means small apertures as well as small bodies, except when it comes to some of their rather tasty primes like the 17mm and 25mm F1.2. Yes that would be fantastic for run & gun. I have considered getting the 12-100mm many times but not sure how committed I will be to Micro Four Thirds after the S1 comes out. Might be a bad time to invest although that lens on the Pocket 4k would be interesting for handheld stuff.

Barely any new technology. Nice camera though. Will it sell? At $3000? I have severe doubts!
-
Now it's been officially released I have to say I am a little bit disappointed. I had expected an all-new technological marvel to justify the price tag but the E-M1X is still very much based on 2-year old technology from the E-M1 II. It is a little bit like an E-M1 II with a firmware update and vertical grip. Read the full article

EOSHD Opinion - The Sony A6400 is an absolute turkey
Andrew Reid replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
That doesn't seem right to me. There would be no way of achieving a 6K full pixel readout for video without multiple column ADCs and Sony have advertised the feature before, as have others. It's pretty standard in 2019. IMX293 is the wrong sensor code for the A6400. Google it. -
EOSHD Opinion - The Sony A6400 is an absolute turkey
Andrew Reid replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
But it still has the same slow rolling shutter? It seems like the old sensor to me, but a new cooler running LSI. -
The A9 does at least get other colour tweaks and Night picture profile on -1 contrast, -3 sharpness is pretty good, I find. Funnily enough I've been using my Super 16 c-mount lenses on the A9 in 2x crop mode. Maintains crispy 4K res at 2x crop in video mode and some c-mount lenses 75mm and longer cover Super 35mm mode as well!

Wow it works with the EF-E adapter on top. What company is developing the adapter, may I ask? Or is it a small indie producer?
-
Woah. Good news. Prototype or already released adapter?
