I think there's room above the Pocket 4K for the same image quality in a better built body with more features. Seems like a no brainer to me. People love the image and the back-end monitoring on the Pocket but it's never going to have the depth of features of a GH5 for the price it is - they would have to up the price to make it more ambitious. Around $2500 would bring us all sorts of goodies. I also wish the form factor would be more along the lines of a GH5 as well with an EVF.

Ah yes thanks for spotting that. Should say: "Until now my two favourite cameras for shooting 4K video with manual focus lenses have been the Leica SL and Sony A7 III."

Yes in next test I'll use a Panasonic. They could have done with telling us!!

It's the entire family's to share the burden! Yes nice dog-eye you have - he is indeed a saluki cross! Crossed with what I don't know. Possibly a chimp. We did a DNA test on him last week and waiting to hear the results.

You can assign an ISO button to a function button. It's just not called ISO in the canon menus LOL. It is "Dial-Func" I've assigned that to M-Fn button next to shutter release and now in one press I can have the ISOs on screen and choose with physical jog dial on top of camera.

It's confirmed at 47 megapixels not 42. https://cvp.com/product/panasonic-s1r-lumix

It says in that video Nino was also using the Olympus 25mm F1.2. Maybe it has a twat detection system?

Name the ways it is a lot better. I'm not really seeing it in this test.

Edvid? Edeo?

An online portfolio is important for a filmmaker or artist or anyone in fact and it should be guaranteed safe, as safe as the files on your hard drive. Vimeo can't guarantee that. They could just remove the DMCA videos, but no - they had to go an extra draconian unnecessary step to satisfy whatever lawyer shit they found themselves in - and delete all the legal videos of that user as well. It's the worst policy... In the history of the internet

The 24-70 and 35 Nikon Z lenses are good optically but utterly charmless in the hand. Feel so cheap and you really are paying top dollar for just F1.8 and F4. I much prefer the Canon EOS R lens line-up. So that's a bit of a shame as Z7 body itself is superb.

I remove my car doors so I can get in and out faster.

Let's be clear, if you use popular music for commercially paid work like wedding videos, that's another matter. You shouldn't do it. You got paid, and you owe the artist a percentage. If you're just sharing non-commercial experiments and artistic cinematography with friends, then that is different, ethically at least. No shit Sherlock ? The question here is whether it is good for their business and users to have a dumb 3-strikes DMCA policy when their main rivals don't. If they end up with everyone leaving or banned, Vimeo will close down. Nobody wants that, not even anti-social assholes like Dan Sherman.

I know recording artists, I know musicians and I know what the vast majority of them want - they want people to hear their music. They want it to be used by fans. They want it to be uploaded to YouTube with equally artistic pictures and for it to bring in streaming revenue for them - like is the case with YouTube and Spotify. For whatever reason Vimeo could not arrange this, so they are not just failing their own users but the musicians as well... Vimeo are denying them (collectively) millions of dollars in streaming revenue. "Made with ♡ in NYC!"

It's not that simple dummy. I won't bother repeating what I wrote in the article a second time. It was clearly lost on you the first time. You probably haven't got the talent to match music to images so you'll probably not understand what's at stake. Like freedom of speech there is such a thing of freedom of artistic expression, if I wanted to set some cinematography to a Pink Floyd track in the privacy of my own edit suite at home, and not release it, I am free to do that. So yes, pros do use copyrighted songs. It is when sharing the results with friends and followers where the problem is, because in order to do that in the age of the internet some form of 'publishing' has to happen and anyone can view it. You are not using it commercially, it's just for fun. Other pros have done it all the time, like Philip Bloom before the music bed, it's been very common and you Ben seem to ignore all the other issues and grey areas as well in an attempt to vote against your own artistic freedom out of some dumb attempt to simplify the subject down to either right or wrong, black or white. You are an 8bit binary thinker. You are worse than a GIF. If you were a codec, you'd be AVCHD. I was recruited by the DJ Paul Van Dyk once and he wanted to use my footage over his music. Boot on the other foot. I said yes. If artists don't share, they don't create anything. Not everything has to be about money or paying for a license.

The Nikon Z7 could well be the best ever camera for adapting manual focus lenses. Read the full article

I wonder if they end up charging for it like V-LOG at first? Or was that just a failed experiment. I can see RAW on the S1R for $3.5k. Not sure about for $2k on the S1.

Maybe there will be a cage with it's own replacement battery door, plus cheese plate adapter for a second battery, with a door, behind a door, within a maze. Spooky.

My experience so far also tells me the AF is one firmware update away from reliable Look at what Panasonic have just done with v2.4 on the GH5 - seems an impressive step. So I am sure Nikon can make an already good system more bullet proof. My strategy so far has been to use smaller manual focus lenses - Leica M and Canon FD - along with one Z mount lens (35mm F1.8) for when I REALLY need AF. I am enjoying the camera better this way, than with the FTZ adapter. Big Nikon F mount lenses just feel clunky on it some how.

So that's why Blackmagic shoots always have a gaffer on set!!!

I'll do it for you.

Be careful the battery doesn't fall out!!

The 1970's called. It wants Jimmy's profile picture back! SIMPLY THE BEST!

It's not that these things matter. It's only the battery falling out during a critical shot. Let's get it out the design room lads, we've done our job!!
