For sure that NX2 will come out in the same day of Breccia's Canon GX9 MKIII. No way that this camera is real. Even not considering the unreal specs, creating a camera to promote the Galaxy S9 would be insane - most of the smartphone users don't give a damn for traditional cameras. If Samsung wished that, making a ultimate vlogger camera would make much more sense - a 1" sensor with Dual Pixel, small form factor, foldable LCD, mic input, 4k120p, good fixed lens. Throw a new and easy way to connect the camera with with S9 (or even use the Exynos modem in the camera) to share fotos, and you have a winner with a much lesser cost and much more target to the intended audience.

Huge upswing in Canon camera sales during 2017
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
In my last trip to Europe, was shocked to see A LOT of EOS M5 in hands of tourists. Especially in London. -
All these references to the 2020 Olympics - do you all really think that a Gh6 would be the camera of choice for the broadcasters?

4K shooting Super 16mm compact from Canon?
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
"Breccia" was the name of the designer that made this (obvious) fake camera. https://***URL removed***/news/9037503969/this-vlogger-is-the-guy-behind-last-week-s-canon-g7-x-mark-iii-hoax -
Or sometimes is being just stubborn because of "pride" - Panasonic stated for years that lens OIS was "good enough" before moved to an IBIS solution (and executed it brilliantly - Dual IS is now a very strong reason to prefer Panasonic lenses instead of Olympus). They could keep DFD for S-AF and switch to PDAF for C-AF and tracking - best of both worlds.

Yeap - as far as I know, specially Panasonic is known for supplying cameras with only japanese language available in Japan. Better check the camera's menu before buying.

@BTM_Pix discovery of how to unlock Cinelike-D on the GX85 was one of the most valuable contribuitions ever on this forum.

New Panasonic G9 - multiaspect sensor?
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Marcio Kabke Pinheiro's topic in Cameras
As a complete amateur (each day even more, filming less... :/), for me the G9 is very interesting too. But still waiting for the G85, GX8 and Olympus E-M5 II sucessors. And keeping an eye in he Fujis and the APS-C Sony line. -
Panasonic GH5S 4K / 240fps low light monster
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
About the option to disable sharpening - remember that this camera have an anti-alising filter, hence the sharpness is already a little refrained. -
“The Middle Path”: A Lumix GH5s Short
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Neumann Films's topic in Cameras
Just want to say that this topic is marked as HOT in the front page. I guess that it corroborates future Panasonic's claims about heat dissipation with this camera. No IBIS for this topic. -
Panasonic To Announce GH5 Variant In January

THAT was valueable info. Thanks, Don. -
“The Middle Path”: A Lumix GH5s Short
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Neumann Films's topic in Cameras
About the IBIS: - I even already mocked about the heat issue, and it really could exist. But (as least in my mind, that could easlily be wrong) to scan a 20mp sensor in 60fps probably would generate more heat in the sensor than a 10mp one? Not ot even mention the processing to downsample a 20mp sensor to 4k in real time - in theory, the 10mp sensor probably will have a 1:1 scan, hence less work in the chipset for the encoding. - The elephant in the room is that the A7SIII will probably have IBIS, and 4kp60 too. For a not too much bigger price - and if Sony puts the A9 autofocus system and tweaks their color science (the A7RIII clips already looks better in color terms, I think), a lot of people could wait. -
Panasonic To Announce GH5 Variant In January
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to DBounce's topic in Cameras
Probably there will be a lot fo PR talking for the reasons to strip IBIS - heat, etc. Reality: to prevent the (not unreasonable) rage from the GH5 owners. They forgot to copy the Sony segmentation to the last step - all guns forward always, no matter what was lauched before. -
Software to trim MP4 4k files without recoding
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Marcio Kabke Pinheiro's topic in Cameras
Just for info, in my case used avidemux with GX85 4K MP4 files, worked flawlessly. But your mileage may vary with other formats. -

Sony also announced a press conference for today - and even Sonyalpharumors knows what it is. If they release the A7SIII by surprise today too... -
“The Middle Path”: A Lumix GH5s Short
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Neumann Films's topic in Cameras
In fact, I'm interested in this camera for stills too - for concert photography, having ISO 6400 and 12800 ISO clean shots is a must (since you generally have to use shutter speeds above 1/360). And 10mp, for web use (or even a magazine cover) is enough. -
“The Middle Path”: A Lumix GH5s Short
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Neumann Films's topic in Cameras
Edit: good move to make the GH5s. Not so much to make the GH5 - the G9 pretty much covers the "hybrid" role, in my point of view. -
“The Middle Path”: A Lumix GH5s Short
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Neumann Films's topic in Cameras
Or maybe was just "Sony is selling, let's copy them'. But I think it is a good move. -
Yeah, I think that it is a really serious issue, but there are a lot of panic mode posts about it. Example: Intel sourced a tool to run in your computer which detects if it is affected by the Meltdown bug. Downloaded and ran it in my crappy Chinese tablet with Atom processor and Windows 10, which never (and probably never will) receive a firmware update from the shitty manufacturer. Windows 10 was not patched for it yet. And the Intel test said my computer was NOT affected by the bug.

You forgot the "Is it the 8th yet?", clearly a mention about 8 bits on footage. -
Panasonic seems to be announcing something "BIG" on December 15
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to seku's topic in Cameras
Casey videos are crap, and "cinematic / DR / blablabla" is only talking - what he (and a lot of vloggers and gimbal people) needs is good AF, and in this Canon is very good. 1080p and "good color science" are very useful too for quick turnaround. For him, I think that it is a very wise choice. And for sure the GH5s will not have DPAF - Panasonic and manufacturers in general are stubborn to change routes. Panasonic stated for years that IBIS was not needed, that OIS was "better solution" - take years to change their minds and 2 GX cameras to start to use a 5-axis IBIS. And a lot of things like that - Olympus menus / interface (come on, you could not have histogram and levelling signs in the SAME screen?), Sony and Fuji with touchscreens (just now started using)... (whishful thinking: Panny usually try newer tech in the GX line - IBIS, tilting EVF, 20mp sensor - and no rumors about a future GX9...maybe will be their first DPAF camera?) -
ROFL The camera could be tiny, but nothing is TINY on that picture.

Fuji X-H1: new APSC video oriented camera
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to wolf33d's topic in Cameras
Well, if Fujirumors is right, will not be this time: 4K, 1.17x crop, 30p, 4:2:0 8 bit 200 Mbps https://www.fujirumors.com/fujifilm-x-h1-4k-1-17x-crop-video-specs/ -
New Panasonic G9 - multiaspect sensor?
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro replied to Marcio Kabke Pinheiro's topic in Cameras
About the sensor: crappy rendering hypothesis was confirmed. I think that it is not a G85 sucessor, this one is in a upper class, aimed at still photographers - and $100 cheaper than the E-M1 MKII, even with the current discounts. I am surprises that 4k60 was included, I thought that only 4k30 will be included. For video, GH5 is clearly better. If Panasonic had jettisoned its "pride" about DFD (as it did about IBIS) and implemented PDAF on sensor, this camera would be a home run for stills (it could sell well as it is, but PDAF would be an icing on the cake).
