That makes sense since the Extreme cards are only rate to 45Mb/s. You may want to correct your article as only the PRO cards are rated to 95Mb/s and you say that the 95Mb/s cards won't work. Also, the UHS-I PRO card doesn't do 280Mb/s, that is reserved for the UHS-II cards.

" According to Eduardo Angel who is shooting with a prototype GH4, their current top end consumer card (Sandisk Extreme 95Mb/s) didn’t take the 4K." I didn't see anything in that link to suggest the Sandisk Extreme 95Mb/s card doesn't work with 4K on the GH4. He actually recommends using that card. Is the Micro-HDMI limitation for 4k related to the HDMI standard or is this related to what Panasonic allowed for the GH4? I was also surprised that the GH4 didn't support UHS-II like Fuji's recently announced X-T1.

GH4 Hands on leaked. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:rZ3Aie5JGI0J:www.whatdigitalcamera.com/equipment/reviews/compactsystemcameras/129786/1/panasonic-lumix-dmc-gh4-first-look.html+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=nz

It looks like Panasonic is getting serious. http://www.43rumors.com/first-panasonic-gh4-images/ - 16,05 Megapixel sensor. It’s a new sensor with semi-conductor protection tech to reduce noise and improved dynamic range. - quad core processor and venus Engine - ISO up to 25,600. - 12fps, 7,5 fps with continuous focusing - GH4 uses the new UHS I class III SD card format - Depth From Defocusing (uses Panasonic lens database to fine tune AF!) - AF as fast as 0.07 seconds. 49 AF points. - 4K video at 4096×2160 pixels and max frame rate of 96fps. - Bit rate of up to 200Mbp - Magnesium body - Price not unveiled yet - There is an optional Interface Unit (see image below). Has 2 XLR, 4 SDI, micro HDMi output, color bar signal, audio reference signal, external time control

Gordon Laing compared the GM1, E-M1 and RX100ii.

For video I would agree that FF lenses are a good investment. As we move away from DSLRs to mirrorless cameras the existing DSLR lenses will struggle in low light for snapshots requiring AF. The on-sensor PDAF will always be limited to brighter seens and as CDAF takes over in low light you will find the DSLR lenses are very slow as they were never designed for fast AF with CDAF.

What about including the RX10 for this comparison?

I understand the GM1 has a different type of shutter mechanism to reduce the size. I wonder is anyone has tried this with the GM1?

I believe this image is from the externally recorded video.

Another test was posted comparing 1080 24p vs 50i(17Mps and 24Mps) http://vimeo.com/80273967

Here are a couple from Cameralabs shot at 1080i50. https://vimeo.com/80151066 https://vimeo.com/80150516

First Vimeo sample was just posted. https://vimeo.com/80144049

Does the active stabilization on the RX10 reduce resolution?

Cinema5D did a first look at the A7.   http://***URL not allowed***/news/?p=22066

According to the PDF the sensor can read-out the full sensor 10-bit at 22.5 fps. So with a slight crop of the 43 sensor for the 16:9 aspect, it looks like it can read-out the full 16:9 image (~15mp) at 24fps. This could then be down sampled to 4k. I don't think it can read the whole sensor at 30p.

I am also interested in the GM1 video. But we will need to see some original files first before we can come to conclusions.

It is Interesting to see that the C100 came with the Dual-Pixel technology before the 70D.  So Canon is now charging $500 for a firmware upgrade.  I guess this is where they expect to make their profits.

Shot to shot times are currently 4s with JPEG.  What will they be with 41mp RAW images?

Very interesting decision by Sony.  I wonder if there is a recording limit?   http://www.newsshooter.com/2013/10/17/sony-rx10-a-video-journalists-delight/   "Great news, Sony’s Kanta Yamamoto has been in touch to say that the RX10 is actually PAL/NTSC region switchable"

The D5200 used a Toshiba sensor.  It looks like the D5300 is now using the D7100 sensor which has no AA filter.  So don't expect similar results to the D5200.

At dpreview they also mentioned some of the enhancements to video such as clean HDMI output with the option of uncompressed 4:2:2.  I hope the next RX100 replacement will also have this new processor.  It would be amazing to have a camera with so many capabilities that could fit in your pocket.   http://***URL removed***/previews/sony-cybershot-dsc-rx10/4

Interesting comments from a beta tester on the cooling system and how it impacts battery usage. "it uses a Peltier effect or thermoelectric cooling system to maintain consistent sensor temperature.." "So on a hot day when the camera is struggling to dissipate heat through the chasis it will use more power to maintain the sensor temperature.This is also the case with the larger BMCC..."

It can also do time-lapse videos at 4k (3840 x 2160).  I couldn't find any more details on this feature.

Not going to happen according to Olympus.   http://www.bestmirrorlesscamerareviews.com/2013/09/18/the-om-d-e-m1-new-pro-lenses-and-2014-an-interview-with-olympus-europe/   "We are concentrating on priority matters, specifically establishing nice still image quality. This is our priority as a camera manufacturer and our reputation on the market is for still. So, that’s one of the reasons. But there is another matter because even if we go in the direction of video, Panasonic already has really nice MFT cameras for video. We like to show the total possibility of the entire MFT line-up, and if we start to focus on video capabilities, it may be misleading to the market. They may think that MFT is only suitable for video and we don’t want to give that impression."
