  You could well be right. We'll know soon enough as I might see it before IBC at IFA in Berlin on 4th September.

I tried that as well on my 7D, but forgot to try it on the 5D Mark III where some say it covers full frame at 35mm despite being a APS-C lens.   It seemed great on 7D, took a few shots with it, will try and get more time with one.   I'm in a dilemma over which one to get. If it wasn't for me using full frame so much, 18-35mm on GH3 with Speed Booster would be a no brainer.

Not enough time with the focus ring yet but seemed fine. It has no hard stops though.   Can't compare the new Leica M glass as they don't go on a Canon mount!

I had a hands on with the new Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM ART today, and compared it to my Leica Summicron-R 35mm F2.0, a $1200 lens. [url=http://www.eoshd.com/content/11000/sigma-have-beaten-leica-dg-35mm-f1-4-vs-summicron-r-35mm-f2-0]Read the full article here[/url]

Anyone read Japanese?

Here's an article, 4000 reasons why this guy likes 4K raw on the FS700, but sadly not one of those 4000 reasons alludes to anything concrete, i.e. how good it is compared to non-raw.   http://provideocoalition.com/sony/story/4000-reasons-why-i-like-the-fs700   I shall have to find out myself!

"Best" camera? There's no such thing. Best camera for someone who can't afford $8k isn't the FS700!   Also the 5D Mark III in raw has better looking 1080p, though I'm keen to find out how the FS700 does in 4K raw.   Consider a used FS100 on a budget - when I shot with both, I preferred the 1080/24p on the FS100. Less aliasing and less noise.

Here, finally, is Canon's answer to Angry Birds. [url=http://www.eoshd.com/content/10987/review-video-game-arkanoid-on-the-canon-7d]Read the full article here[/url]

I'm not sure the FS100 and FS700 sold well because the ergonomics were more suited to computer keyboards than cameras. C100 and C300 sales probably had them for breakfast.   A shame because a lot more tech under the hood on these than on the 'not even 1080/60p for your $15,000' C300.   Ergonomics not that wonderful on the C300 anyway. Top Gear bloke used one for a run & gun sequence. Hated it.   What Sony need to do is put a decent video chip in their upcoming NEX full frame stills camera and take the market by storm. But they won't.

The Sony FS700 hasn't been out for long by pro equipment standards - around a year. Canon haven't updated the semi-pro 7D DSLR for nearly 5 years! But Sony are planning an updated FS700R and FS700RH for later in the year, likely to be announced at IBC in Amsterdam this September.

This was on the EF camera, but you can use the same M42 mount lens (Helios) and same anamorphic on the MFT camera for the same results.

Hi Dicky. It is a digital PDF download, and the email was sent as soon as you ordered. If you haven't got the email let me know and I will resend it. It goes to your PayPal email address.

It isn't normal behaviour. Looks like a workflow issue. More details of that please!   Also, try a copy of Resolve Lite and see if you have the same artefact with the DNGs in that.

Didn't get mine from eBay, they're all crazy prices on there.

Sensor size Oli. The Nokton is designed to cover a smaller 2x crop area compared to the full frame sensor in the RX1.

John has used the Pocket Cinema Camera on his commercial work but likely can't release the material.   Where Blackmagic are going wrong is they have no Reverie marketing piece, not a lack of test shots.

  Yes please. E-sata and a SSD mag in a battery grip. I mean, this isn't hard or expensive stuff we're talking about here. Just a direct tap on the sensor's raw data in the memory already in the camera, out via a $5 chipset.

7D on the way!   Will likely get the anti-aliasing filter for it too. Image is so sharp, it just needs that tiny bit of low pass filtering to be flawless yet still very sharp.

Is a tripod that inconvenient for stabilisation? The pocket form factor saves you a ton of weight over the BMCC.   The only time I'm 100% happy shooting handheld with no rig is when there's a very good stabilisation system on the camera or if I can slow the footage down from 60p to 24p - that reduces the jitter.   You could put a Z-finder on the back of the Pocket. Then you have a steadier rig but it's still tiny.

It made Engadget. Well done Florian :)   http://www.engadget.com/2013/08/05/first-canon-7d-raw-video-shown-courtesy-of-magic-lantern/   How much interest is there in 7D raw video coverage on EOSHD? It is quite an old camera now (over 4 years), still a lot of users around?

  There's two ways of looking at it. Would you prefer to see a more marketing orientated eye-candy shoot, or just honest snaps on the street? If you look at the recent Dragon test, that had a hell of a lot of effort put into it and looks incredible but to be honest it was just TOO good. Too good for Vimeo, too good for 1080p, and no frame of reference to compare it to. So I don't mind that John has put these very basically shot real world clips out at all.   The screen grab you posted above is badly compressed, badly graded (too much magenta, steep roll off in the blacks and highlights). It doesn't do it justice. Sorry!

Zzz.   Anyway - Pocket Camera mirror is up. URL is - https://copy.com/a3Ye8xLctRNy

Some people have literally no concept of price. Are they hedge fund managers?!

Surely it can't be softer than the 1D X? Hmm.

I'll create a mirror at Copy. Uploading...
