  1. The only thing ML did to Canon is change their firmware update policy to require the camera to be send authorized canon center to do the update... *cough* 5dmkiv
  2. Glad I ditched Sony completely last month (FS5 A7s etc) and switch back to Panasonic this year
  3. Panasonic 35-100 2.8 with tiffen promist filter and slrmagic vari nd, that filter works really well on modern lens
  4. http://www.43rumors.com/fake-real-image-claims-show-new-gh5-firmware-2-0-features/#disqus_thread no 400mbps yet, I have a feeling they might release it next month when v60 v90 are in stock though it does have quite a lot of improvement and fix liked improved Video AF, tripod IS mode for static handheld shooting, new IS mode for anamorphic as currently after desqueeze it's a bit wonky, fix wb can randomly change even if it set to custom (I had that happened to me, my director was asking did the wb just changed?) but then again it's from an unknown source so taken with salts for now
  5. The prophet say it all!
  6. Follow this thread as I am looking to ugprade from i7-4770K to Threadripper, Intel is like Canon, you have to pay to get the feature you want so I don't think they need to react to AMD which have less than 20% market share.
  7. QFTT! Save your money for house deposit or next travel, if you are happy with what you got there is no need spend money. I am saving up for newer car
  8. crop in 2X is very bad, especially if you are switching to slowmo on the go as it totally changing the composition. Sony color is really hard to get right, that coming off as formal FS5, A7RII, A7S and A6300 owner, nowadays I use C100MKII for corporate and GH5 for everything else. DR on Sony camera is very good, so as lowlight, but i dont really miss it (don't shoot at night nowadays), not one client asked is the video getting less DR lol, as long the composition and colour looks right that all they care.
  9. Most site nowaday are paid sponsor in disguise, or no disguise at all, I rather concentrate on getting my self richer than some random people on the net
  10. Maybe get Foxconn, they got million factory workers to help lol

    Mini Slider

    There is indian KO for $110 I think
  12. I got the audio adapter on my GH5, easier to use than C100MKII's top handle, especially when camera is mounted fairly high.
  13. Dual IS2 is not great for panning, I think your best bet is to write to Panasonic about this, I already write to them that dual IS2 and panning is bad for video. That why I got Olympus lens, dont really get those Dual IS2 problems especially panning, and ability to switch to full manual focus instead of fly by wire! Sometimes I feel there is photo vs video division fighting each other inside the group. POIS is good for photo but not great for video compare to MOIS, same for Dual IS, great for photos but can be problematic for video.
  14. interesting link, will it make video file size even much smaller?
  15. Yeah its a $500 paid upgrade for continuous 120P mode that is standard on cheaper A7S2 and A6x00
  16. screen grab from a sequence I shot last week (last airbender fan film), it will have quite a bit of vfx once finished
  17. A7SIII probably coming next year, A7II released Nov 14, A7RII Aug 15 and A7SII Sep 15, if A7III is similar to A7II release (both Q4 release) then you can expect A7RIII coming out in summer and A7SIII in autumn next year, definitely more than a year to go Looks like Sony is putting A7 into 3 year cycle.. same for A5xxx series lol, the entry lvl model need a long overdue! Or maybe they are exiting the entry level market and go for enthusiast and up?
  18. I once drop the 12-35mm and gh4 from a monopod and both work fine (monopod at 1.3m high), only the lens hood broke. Panasonic stuff are pretty well constructed compare to Olympus in terms of internal robustness. M43 lens is good for ninja shoots and on gimbal, good luck try use that 70-200mm f2.8 to look casual, I only used prime lens on gimbal to save my arm. Even 12-40mm is too heavy for me on gimbal for all day shoots, I only used m43 prime on it.
  19. Use patreon, I know some are sustainable but some still got a few miles ahead by using patreon. Subscription (or monthly contribution) is the way to go. There is different mindset of paying to support and get content vs paying to buy content, which I doubt many want to spend to buy just the content, I know I wouldn't. (look at honest trailer, their $1 subscription end in epic failure, if they do it on patreon that will be a complete different story)
  20. In our area we still have few cameras stores but yeah most mall camera shops is closed or converted to photo print shops. Though we have 1 brand of camera shop that expanding since that one is targeted mainly toward video people like us.
