Even if it has XAVS-C it doesn't mean it would have great quality. They could cripple the video details since they are experts at this :)

I wouldn't shoot anything above 1/50-1/60 so for me ND filter is a must.

It seems to be a common mistake to associate video card = video editing. That's (almost) completely wrong. GPU acceleration is used only by some editing software like Premiere Pro and only for some effects, actually from CS6 they added a lot of effects. Also keep in mind that GPU acceleration is used only for rendering effects not for decoding and encoding. So my advice is not to spend a fortune on video cards, just the best you can get that supports acceleration with your editing software and invest on CPU, RAM and dedicated HDD for videos. I'm not saying that GPU doesn't make a difference, I mean that high end GPUs can be an overkill.

Canon says those magic words for every upcoming announcement.

From what I've seen I'm not that sure that the A6000 in terms of details is worse than the D5300.

Resolution looks promising.

I completely agree with the video. Nikon is being really stupid. They have no video market to protect and they could destroy everyone.

I read that with the Nikon with "digital" lenses you can't change the aperture in live view and when recording. Is that true? That would be a real PITA for me.

I believe no manual controls for video right?

That was outstanding, greak work! Can I be your friend? :P

I bought my 550D for video only, the pictures part for me is an add-on. Would you exchange your g6 for the a6000? Why not/yes?

What would you say are the a6000's problems? For starters its not as sharp as the Panasonics IMHO. Can you change the aperture while shooting? I know the Nikons have issues like these.

Me too :) You can the find the g6 + 14-42 for a little less.

I was talking about the G7X only! Do you think it's OK that (based on amazon prices) the GX7 costs €840 body only with a great 1080p60 video but on a m43 sensor where pictures will be undoubtedly worse than the say the nikon d5200 or sony a6000 that have medium to decent video but great pictures quality on APC-S sensor but for €300 less? I don't think I'm spoiled, I think that considering the smaller sensor and notsogood pictures quality the Panasonics should cost the same since you gain from a point and lose from another. Don't you think? The G6 is more balanced. @Kangaroo where do you live? Anyway I would honestly buy the G6 today but as I said, I would totally be a problem the lack widelenses for less $ for me :(

I'm definitely into Panasonic since the GH1 hack but I was never courageous enough to buy one. For instance if I wanted to achieve the same look of 10-11mm (APS-C) on the m43 how much would I need to spend? Anyway Panasonic should really lower their prices, they ask too much from a "compact" m43 sensor camera that can't compete to APS-C sensors for pictures. Why do you think the gx7 is better than the g6?

Is the low light performance bad?

Worse than the Canons?

I'm downloading the files, does it resolve more lines in 24p?

Even getting a decent 1080p from Canon would be miracle after 6 years of the same crap.

Yeah it's not difficult to get wide look on m43, you just have to spend a lot of money! As for me I see no point in going with the 600D, it's the same old shit over and over. I would get the a6000 for the big sensor and better video quality than the old Canon. The lenses selection is limited though. The G6 is the best for video quality but being drawn to wide lenses and low light scenes I see the m43 can't compete, unless again you have thousands of euros to spend on lenses.

The final shot looks very sharp.

Still looks pretty DSLR-y to me ... with lots of aliasing.

A non-Canon 1080p in 2014 is not really a high demand, but i understand that would possibly destroy the C300 sales since you would expect similar image details with a newer sensor.

My biggest problem is lenses. With Canon I can get a 10-18mm for €250 , 50mm 1.8m for €80. Now say how much would it cost to get the same FOV and light on m43 sensor? Or on a Sony-E mount? The sony version of the 50mm 1.8 costs €250 alone and I don't know about the quality, secondly the 10-18mm variant costs €800! So I would need to pay like 10 times for what I have now but with a good 1080p. Thus a good quality 1080p with cheap DSRL form Canon would fix my problems. Am I the only one?

The next Canon move would be Photokina right?
