I saw the other day a rear anamorphic adapter and saw that Slr Magic was launching big front anamorphic adapter. There used to be a time when they were taking a lot of feedback here, I was going to ask with Nikon Z and dare I say Canon R , they could do a much simpler rear adapter for much less. I understand you don't get oval bokeh and flares , but the adapter could have fine lines on the lens or like fishing lines diy adapters. We would get at least 2 of the anamorphic characteristic. You could also add an oval type aperture for the oval bokeh look. was lau

Very nice video, I asked the guy if he used IBIS, this is his response "Most of the time I am Handheld the camera, IBIS is Awesome, you have to try, I think it is much better than my A7III." that's very encouraging.

Nice example with VR (ibis) on, when he is not walking the duck step it looks good. I think with some more careful walk (gimbal style ninja one) it can be quite good. Low light test (youtube), its not ideal but gives a little idea, I guess usable until 10 000 iso. The z6 could then go to 20 000 iso.

One of the biggest advantage of Full Frame for me is that you can use those super versatile F4 zoom on your camera for 99% of the shots. I intend to get the 24-70 F4 which will cover 80-90% of normal use when you counter in APSC mode. Something like the 24-120 Nikon would be a 24-180 with the Apsc mode and would cover 99% of my need for reportage shooting. The big advantage is that F4 on a full frame is like f 2.8 35mm cinema dof, so you still have plenty of shallow DOF. The second advantage is shooting in LOG format which is generally 800 ISO. To get proper ND to shoot at these high ISO during daytime is very very costly. You would need to close down your aperture again to at least F4 and F5.6 and the Full frame would again get you better DOF control. Nice, thats the guy who did Nikon music video, shoulder rest rig, no stab. What I like is the rack focus in some of those shots, very organic. Nice

Some AF video stabilization test. I those videos, the AF looks very very good (I mean as if using tripod), stabilization looks very good from a standpoint but I dont know what to say about the only walking I saw. It doesn't look good, but I don't know if someday I would walk like this shooting a video. People who have been using more IBIS might have a better idea if it is good or bad. In this one you have those walking stabilized shots, AF sometime is sick in this thing another more general video test of z7

WOW so you come here and tell us how "GH5 looks better at ISO5000 than the Z6 in these examples at ISO8000" and then you show us one example of your work where the blacks are completely clipped while in the Nikon one we can see a lot of detail in the shadows. In fact, that's the amazing thing in this footage is the dynamic range at such high ISO. Getting all those nuances from the moon/lights in the tent to the subtle mist in the mountains. Could you show us some footage of the GH5 shot at higher ISO with such nuance from the highlight of the moon/lamps in the tent to those misty shadows, even seeing the green of the grass like in this video. Everyone who has shot at night know how difficult it is to get either details from an artificial lamp or the surrounding nature. Generally you have to choose to expose from one or the other. The last thing, before lecturing people and critisizing a beta camera that you have never used, try to ask before about things like noise removal and sharpening settings. What do you know the reason the guy sharpened it, I will give you one, perhaps he wanted his 1080p 120 fps footage to match a bit closer to the 4k one, for obvious reasons. The last last thing before anyone make any assumption, the night footage was shot 8000 iso and above, it is written and the end of the film. So we might have 10-25 K iso or even more in there.

My bad, I misread you, I am pretty sure you have this functionality Nikon for video and photo setting different. Another solution is use a fader ND. The big advantage now is that you can use viewfinder to set exposure.

Is it confirmed for the Pocket 4k?

Black magic I meant. If someone told me that someday you could shoot raw for under 100 mbit, I would think he is crazy LOL

Do they have a 1080p version? Shoot 1080p raw for 75 mbs lol.

Sincerely is that still relevant. I was just going to say that with the amount of Camera coming with 10 bit etc.... and then I saw the blackmagic raw. Why would someone bother with it. I mean 10 bit log video will be good enough for 95% of shooting, now with blackmagic Raw which could be implemented in the P4k, the hassle, reliability, large file size etc... makes this just moot for any filmmaker.

I can't see datarate, it only says 5x smaller.

I didn't know that, I shoot mainly 1080 DNXHD 145 mbit 8bit with my Ninja and it must be about 60 GB per hour. I don't know if they have 1080p version of the raw, but it would be less than 8bit prores/dnxhd. I could be shooting RAW and save space, I am stunned. So what are the RAW bitrate in the C200. Compression is always very processor intensive, Raw uncompressed is really easy because the camera is already reading from the sensor, compression is another processing, you have to take that data and run a bunch of algorithm in real time to compress that. Its like when you render your timeline and it is compressed to some format and the amount of processor and GPU we use to speed it up.

With the Canon he would look like an alien LOL. Anything about autofocus, I also saw somewhere where you could either join the two setting photo/video or separate them. But his gripe is typical photo shooter centric, because any hybrid shooter would know that you would have to have an ND filter (or close aperture) and shoot at 1/50 -1/60 for video. You can't expect to have quality video if you just switch your 1/200-2000 photo shutter speed setting and shoot video.

They want to promote the z7 for now because they are delivering now. One person said that they had a z6 on show at one of the Nikon meeting but they could not use it because the Rep said it's firmware was still in beta, in some way it makes some sense, they must be putting all their effort in the z7 for the imminent launch.

WOW if you can shoot 4k for 1 hour that would be revolutionary. I hope someone or blackmagic gives us the bitrate.

It might not be for the sensor, but if it make the scene less contrasty then it is technically making the sensor recording more from the shadows to the highlight. Same as using older less contrasty lens.

I don't understand german and only rely on translation, but this guy has been doing some of the best test of the z7.

Face tracking test

Perhaps, a stop more, it would put it between, 12 to 14 stop depending different people measurement. Again the 10 bit and LOG format would put these format in the high-end shoot that needs to have some serious grading and would be really necessary for 10% shoots. The other 90%, will be more than enough with 8bit(I somewhat would have loved internal 10 bit) and Flat profile.

I think Nikon thinks that Flat as Canon Clog with its 12 stop DR is about the best you can fit in a 8 bit file. I have seen example where the Nikon flat profile compared favorably with Clog and one of the members here did a test against the BMCC with its 13 stop DR. The strange thing is than Nikon claims the NLOG is only 12 stop. For me they are very very conservative in communication like with the fiasco of the battery life. They could have said 600-1000 photos (it is even more) from normal use and then write 300 cipa in small LOL. It would have been much closer to reality and not some folks who have never use the camera or only use it for 2 hours at the launch running arround claiming everywhere that it is only 300 photos. There was a Nlog file posted and it looked very very clean at 800 iso, perhaps they are measuring at very very low level of noise in the shadows.

I was going to post that video, for me what it also shows is what I would call normal panning and how it works for rolling shutter. If we make abstraction about the fast shutter speed look, its looks ok to me and more encouraging for the lower megapixel z6.

So only one bar used after one hour of shooting in 1080p 50. o only

Review in german, perhaps someone could summerise it for us. From what I understood from the translation is that IBIS worked really great for video and the most important no overheating in very hot condition. view

It did not occur to you that it was a guy with zero video shooting knowledge like the 180 degree rule etc, who just posted a master piece like below. Event the cat shooters would be ashamed of that.
