A laughable amount of crippling, even for Clownon's standards...

Thanks. I wonder what the video performance will be on that battery, especially at 4k, with the screen on. It would surprise me if you could get longer than an hour on those battery specs.

What battery will it be using? A new model?

hmmm, no news on the crop?

That's a controlled demolition. I have some experience filming these and working with construction crews over the years. That's a textbook demo (when building falls straight into its footprint like that). Looks like professional execution in a dense urban environment. EOS-RP apparently coming in at $1,299. That's some aggressive pricing from the old farts over at Canon. Cue up the resident Canon YT fanboys to gush all over this thing (McKinnon, etc)...

The fine gentlemen over at Cinema5D are reporting that 4K60p can only be captured externally. Is this true? Andrew can you confirm? I understand the APS-C crop, but can you record 4k60p internally on the S1?

IDX has 1.3x crop.

If you were Sony, would you unleash all of this tech in the next A7s? I don't think so...

You said: "No but it can shoot full frame HD as well as full frame stills. None of the cheap 4k/60p cameras can." Implying that it is somehow a feature to be noted.

We're now praising Canon because they offer full frame HD?

I would accept the 1.74 crop. Just give us the 60p. That's what Fuji just did (1.5apsc x 1.18crop = 1.77 crop 4K 60p).

Releasing a camera in October 2018 and not include 4K 60p is DOA in my opinion. I can accept the crop, single card slot and RS, but not the lack of 60p. Not when other cheaper cameras are offering it.

Shills. After that many cocktails, everything looked wobbly.

Really curious about the IBIS performance on the Nikon Zs. Sony isn't up to snuff for me. Would really love a FF option with the IBIS performance of a GH5. No 4k60p is a bummer too...

Cropless 4k 60p is non-negotiable. A thicker, more robust codec is also necessary. New battery is expected. Better ergonomics would be a dream as would some type of internal ND system.

Wrong. I would have bought one if not for the crop. I bet you Andrew would have as well. The crop and lack of 120fps is a joke in 2018. I could even forgive the lack of 4k60p and extra memory slot. But not the crop and 120....

Don't worry, Canon will have proper 4k soon enough, once everyone else moves to 8k...

It's time we also held the so-called reviewers responsible for driving the hype-train for handicapped technology for the sake of their pennies in affiliate links. Calling these things "reviews" is fake news. When you're flown out and dined in Hawaii it's not a review, it's a rim job.

Actually the EOS-R accomplished something the Z6/Z7 could not...that is make the Z6/Z7 look good.

Well put, Andrew. Thank you. As one person put it, it is us, the consumers, that end up footing the bill for these events and the nauseating, sugar-coated reviews we get from it later. The extra $300 on the EOS-R body covers the cost of this dishonest extravaganza. Need to put pressure on the "journalists" and unsubscribe from their channels...

Any idea of the queue/number of preorders at Hot Rod?

On the contrary, numerous impartial observers following an evaluative trip to Las Vegas concluded that the A7iii was the "complete" package.

I take it you're still using a t2i then? Or is that too uncessarily advanced also?

I'm interested to see the speedbooster options. Wonder if the .71 (m43s) will work.

Yes, I suppose you could power it through DC but that would kill the run-and-gun capability. I wonder about the hub idea...would be surprised if you could power and record simultaneously through the same port.
