ND64

Don't know about HDMI out but if there was LOG we would see it in Picture Styles. Maybe they will charge $100 for that.

I don't know why Japanese hate h.265. 500mb makes too heavy files for internal recording. Whats wrong with h.265 Main 10? With that we could have 10bit with only 160mb. License fees?

Look at the front element size.. the diameter of lens is bigger than it had to be. I use Sigma 135 f/1.8 for portrait works and I've always said it needed a tripod collar. Canon 28-70 is bigger and 300g heavier than that behemoth Sigma. Go figure. At least it has All-I codec.

If it was cropped they would mention it somewhere as footnote in that pdf.

Finally a Nikon footage without clipped clouds

Why "Full HD 59.94 fps not available during EF-S cropped shooting"?

Even people in developed countries using iPhone X don't shoot video as much as they shoot still. Because for the viewer, video takes much more time to get the content. "online videos".. vlogger generation, of course.. and high end smartphone, or a cheap m4/3 hybrid camera will be good enough for that. The point is FF still market is already niche.. a video centric approach for that market is niche in the niche. How it gonna help Panasonic?

I don't know how they gonna handle the customer perception management. With m4/3 the message was "for high quality photo and video, you don't need FF, and with fast lenses we and others are making for the system, you don't even miss FF DOF". With jumping to FF, its like saying "sorry guys, we were wrong about that".

I understand you're excited, but physics is a bitch.

Doesn't look like a minority report if you check Nikon new S 50mm f/1.8 MTF chart. It gives them more freedom to make a better corrected lens. It makes considerable difference in image quality. Short flange and wide mount is not just "good to have" feature, its necessary for the future.

Those two adapters are for PL mount and ND filter. So expect interesting video features from this one. They won't encourage you to put PL lenses on this body if it gives only 8 bit data.

Lets see.. will Sony claim #1 in US sales again? ?

With no breathing super fast lenses, they just launched a cine lens series without launching a cine lens series.

They're Sigma/Tamron sales after all, not Nikon/Sony sales. Canikon and also Sony, make camera bodies to sell lens. Sony had to give away its own potential lens sales to third parties cause it couldn't rival the huge Canikon install base.

Average lens sales per body is 1.5 now, some people are near two, and few at almost 3. This means usually a kit lens plus two primes. Pro shooters and enthusiasts want more and more, but for the rest of the market they did it right.. an all around nano coated weather sealed constant aperture zoom, and couple of sharp primes.

Its amusing to see people call any ILC that has no mirror in front of sensor, a Sony clone! Leave Nikon aside for a moment, most of the new tech or ideas introduced in this industry in recent years, didn't come from Sony. PDAF wasn't Sony invention, they licensed it. and Canon delivered a better version. IBIS was also a licensed tech, and Olympus created a much better iteration of it. EVF wasn't new thing, and Leica was the one who showed how the next generation of it should be. in optics, m4/3 members were true pioneers, and for large sensor glass, it was Sigma who made the bold actions. In video, most of what we now consider as must-have features, determined by Panasonic. In color science, and also the joy of photography, Fuji was the real hero. Sony is good in two segments: making sensors, and marketing. Both unrelated to its imaging unit.

DPR criticism of AF-C is simply rude! I don't call them Canon/Sony fan, and I also don't think Z is perfect out of the box..not at all. but they put a 70-200 designed for DSLR, not even the latest FL one, with adapter, and expected it to work like D5! Seriously? But in video, and with native lens, they couldn't deny that it works fine!

What's your regret?

AND with timecode! ?

A7S is niche camera.. you will be surprised to learn how low is the number of production. Nikon better spend its limited R&D money on lenses.

Focus coverage is insane ?

No way. Though its equipped with Expeed 6, which is expected to more advanced than D850, but don't hold your breath.

Only one slot card lol But at least XQD is more reliable than SD.

No 60fps for now But AF is way more important. Hope it works well with those two primes!

That 4k crop
