Probably. I'll look into it, thanks for being on the look out

You may want to take that dog to the vet 🙂

I am interested to know what happens if you have 4K/60p enabled in menus, whether it overheats doing nothing like the EOS R5? The guy on the other topic said it lasted 15 mins in the main menu. Then you'd have to wait for it to cool down. At least 4K/24p/25p seems ok, but it would be a pain if 4K/60p impacted normal camera menu operation and stills mode.

There's always a bit of inertia when it comes to user habits, not everybody likes to live on the cutting edge and will prefer to pick up something they're familiar with, tried and tested. 5D IV will soon drop off though, give it a couple of years.

Interesting. What mode was set on the mode dial? A stills mode or video? What video mode resolution and frame rate was set in the main menus? 4K or 1080p? 30p or 60p? When it shuts off can you turn it on again and continue for another 15 mins? Also try to see how long it can go in 4K/60p continuously recording with temperture limiter set highest... I'd be tempted to swap to a different model if it shuts off after 15 mins.

More likely to happen the other way round, the way things are going

Tokina had a tiny increase as well. Otherwise it looks to me as if the release of so many Canon EOS R cameras and lenses in 20-21 did take business of nearly ALL the other brands. Really like the look of those small Angenieux Why are people so Canon obsessed?

Nice little test. If you want an upgrade from that Cosmicar try the Zeiss Tevidon 25mm F1.4. Covers full sensor and has all of the c-mount appeal for around $100.

Seems Canon RF mount is off to a flying start and Blackmagic 6K Pocket very popular... Full blog post at: https://www.eoshd.com/news/camera-rental-trends-smaller-cameras-larger-sensors-dominant-start-for-canon-rf/

Welcome back Don and a happy new year from us!

Hey JG good to see you back. I think it's RIP DSLRs because they are taking sales away from EOS R lenses, as people like us already do, a lot of people still buy EF because we can use them on all the new mirrorless systems. So if they nuke the entire line-up and EF mount cameras, they bait everyone into switching systems. Some thoughts on that: https://www.eoshd.com/news/eoshd-outlives-the-canon-dslr/ A lot of money in pros switching and having to rebuild their entire EF mount lenses in R mount. It may however backfire on Canon as some will see it as an opportunity to dump Canon DSLRs and take their EF lenses with them to Sony, Nikon or Panasonic.

The optical viewfinder and EF mount is officially dead. An opportunity for Pentax to take over a niche market? In an interview with the Japanese press (https://www.yomiuri.co.jp/economy/20211228-OYT1T50000/), CEO Fujio Mitarai says the 1D X Mark III will be the final Canon DSLR in production, and when it ceases production that'll be it. There will be no future 5D after the current Mark IV and no new 7D. This news just 2 years ago would have been unthinkable.

It's probably down to a licensing disagreement, political reasons. It's also probably because ARRI and RED's raw codecs aren't direct competitors to BRAW or Blackmagic's own cameras but ProRes RAW is.

I am pretty sure the a7C will be back but if they can't get just one critical component for 2 years, they've got no choice but to terminate it I can't see Sony redesigning the PCB and making big changes. They will just go straight to an A7C II instead This could be the permanent end for Sony APS-C stuff though.

Is this the end for affordable Sony cameras? A7C, A6600, A6100 all cancelled Due to a major chip shortage, Sony has announced it will cancel the production of several recent models, some permanently. Sony are themselves a manufacturer of semiconductors, can't they just make more? Of course it isn't that simple. Sony use thousands of third party chips in their products...

Yeah they are going on sale apparently. No prices yet The plot thickens!

I can see that happening. the Z6 Mark III that is 🙂 If this place becomes like the DPR forum be prepared for me to go bye bye again!!

Good to see you back! More YouTube coming soon That should annoy Peter McKinnon all being well

EOSHD investigates... https://www.eoshd.com/news/whats-the-story-behind-schneider-kreuznachs-return-of-the-iscorama/

It's Spring time for EOSHD.

Hello to everyone on the forum! A Merry Christmas from me! I hope you're looking forward to having a good break over the holidays and are ready to welcome in 2022. Talking of holidays - I have been having a break from EOSHD for a few months. I went and sat on a hill and finally had time to reflect on my work which is this blog and the community around it. The last video had a lot of support, it's made me really appreciate what I have in a more positive light. I'm mega appreciative of the people who took the time to say how EOSHD has helped them over the years and that they want it to continue. So that's what we'll do! EOSHD is back.

The most important question - Is Peter McKinnon switching?

You might struggle, with such a large sensor. The Iscorama 54 has a very big rear element, and if you don't mind some soft-ish corners and fall off (not a hard vignette) you could try pairing it with a vintage full frame lens on an adapter for the GFX 100. You just wouldn't get away with 50mm like on full frame... Would need to go longer... 85mm perhaps. Don't bother pairing it with the modern Fuji G lenses. Won't work. Needs more simple optics behind it. Maybe a Canon FD 85mm F1.8 or something like that. I plan to take a deeper look into this next month. There's a lot I haven't got round to trying. Do you have an anamorphic lens at the moment, or are you looking - if so what's your budget and aims? Cheers

Thanks for the kind words everyone 👍
