Here is a filter adaptor for the RX100.

Sony seems to be the only one willing to cannibalize their own products. Every other camera manufacturer tries to project their higher margin products. The RX100 is another example where Sony put all of the latest processing technology and manual controls in a 1" sensor compact camera. It even has the same menu as the Alpha line. I wish others would do the same.

Looks like we'll soon have ND and CPL filter options for the RX100. Along with the RF grip the accessories are starting to come. [url="http://cheesycam.com/examples-with-cpl-filter-on-rx100/"]http://cheesycam.com/examples-with-cpl-filter-on-rx100/[/url]

Sony to produce first full frame DSLR with 1080/60p and EVF
hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Looks like it may be announced this week according to Kirk Tuck. [url="http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1037&message=42088846"]http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1037&message=42088846[/url] -

A hack for this will provide another cheap body for video. [url="http://www.3dnews.ru/_imgdata/img/2012/07/13/632251/8.jpg"]http://www.3dnews.ru/_imgdata/img/2012/07/13/632251/8.jpg[/url]

Thanks Andrew. I will likely get this very soon although 24P and ND filter would have made it perfect.

Canon mirrorless to feature APS-C sensor according to sources
hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Unfortunately Canon and Nikon have not developed many prime lenses specifically for their APS-C mounts. At least the FF primes that most own can be used with FF bodies so there is no investment loss (making the switch easier). I wonder if we see any further updates to APS-C mount primes from Nikon and Canon with cheaper FF and mirrorless increasing sales. -

hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
I would not get your hopes up on Canon's mirrorless. They are likely to use the hybrid sensor from the 650D/T4. Looking forward to your RX100 review. -

I believe it is just easier to have faster sensor readouts on smaller sensors. The Canon S series could have had great video if they wanted it too. That is why I believe the Nikon 1 series will be the first MILC to have a global shutter.

Cinema5D review of Canon 650D confirms no fix for moire and aliasing
hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
[quote author=MattH link=topic=849.msg6119#msg6119 date=1339784451] Wow. Bad show from canon. After the 5dmkiii I knew the resolution wouldn't be better, but I at least expected the moire and aliasing to be solved. What reason do I now have to think it will EVER get solved in their 'rebel' line. Presumably the video in their upcoming mirrorless cameras will be exactly the same, so I might as well forget being exited about them too. [/quote] Yes, I think the 650D and G1X tells us alot about the upcoming Canon Mirrorless. I'll have similar video and overall slow processing. -
Dpreview updated their review to include comparison with the D800E. A the bottom of this page you can download the original 2GB (9 second) clip from the HDMI out. http://***URL removed***/reviews/nikon-d800-d800e/30

[quote author=sandro link=topic=822.msg5971#msg5971 date=1339429913] At this point I don't think Canon is to be considered anymore(?). There won't be anything until 3y from now [/quote] I would agree that it could be 3 years before any major changes to video with their DSLRs. But maybe Canon has decided to focus on high end camcorders instead which means Canon DSLRs will always be behind now. It'll be interesting to see how Panasonic (GH3) and Sony (NEX-8?) respond. Will they pull a Canon too?

Difficult to really compare on YouTube but there is a side-by-side rolling shutter comparison. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o13ndzqQDiQ&hd=1

Introducing the new Sony RX100 - large sensor compact with 1080/60p
hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
dpreview has confirmed there is no 1080p24. Here is some more info. http://***URL removed***/previews/sony-dsc-rx100/4 "The RX100 allows P,A,S or M exposure modes to be used when video shooting. Autofocus remains available in movie shooting, regardless of the exposure mode used. Alternatively the camera's focus peaking can be used to aid manual focus (which can be assigned to the front dial). This, combined with the camera's active image stabilization during movie shooting, makes it a pretty capable and pocketable camera for grabbing footage." -
Introducing the new Sony RX100 - large sensor compact with 1080/60p
hoodlum replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
I am very excited about the camera. Almost the same size as my Canon S90 and can replace my HX9V as well. This would be great for a pocketable travel camera. The 20mp doesn't worry me as it has been shown that a 20mp sensor image scaled down to 10mp would have the same noise as a 10mp sensor using the same sensor technology. The only negative is slower processing and larger files for RAW. But you do get some more cropping ability in good light. I also noticed that 16:9 can use more of the sensor width (multi-aspect). I wonder how close this is to 3x3 pixel binning for 1080p video. -

[quote author=richg101 link=topic=812.msg5824#msg5824 date=1338825893] I think I might buy one of these. or wait for the sony fixed lens apsc camera shortly. [/quote] I think this was the "APSC Fixed lens" rumor. ;) -
I always thought the 1" sensor made more sense with a faster fixed lens. And only 5mm deeper than the s90. The 1080p60 28mbps video should be very good based on the HX9v.

[quote author=emgesp link=topic=783.msg5660#msg5660 date=1337996164] "But it's an optically superb lens." So is the new Nikon 85mm 1.8, but Nikon isn't charging $900 for it and it's a full-frame lens too. If this was a macro lens, or had IS I could understand the price, but it doesn't have either. [/quote] The new Nikon 85mm doesn't seem to be as sharp wide open. It also has slower AF and a plastic body. The 9 aperture blades on the 75mm should give a nicer bokeh vs the 7 blades on the Nikon. I don't think the pricing is that far off considering what you get. But I do agree that some would be willing to sacrifice in some areas to get a lower price.
