  1. seems legit from their thread at bmcuser http://www.bmcuser.com/showthread.php?22226-P4K-Footage-quot-Seoul-Zoo-quot
  2. 10 bit can definitely help if you want to maximise dynamic range and shoot in log mode - most versions of log (other than the original clog1) tend to fall apart in 8 bit as soon as you start grading.
  3. this is great for us in 25p land, tried it with a friends GH5 and it is a huge improvement. Doesn't work in 24p though apparently
  4. As always it seems everyone has different needs in a camera. There is quite a difference when grading 10 bit log compared with 8 bit, and with the C200 you are giving up dynamic range sticking to their 8 bit codec. For me the fs7 seems to have spoilt many of the production companies at least in my world, and so they are now asking more for 10 bit not 8 bit. You can argue they should instead just leap to dealing with RAW but that is not where they seem to be at, for better or worse... There is a lot to like about the c200 and even though I do prefer the EVA1's image, the c200 ticks most of the boxes for me, I come from the c100 so it would seem like a natural step - but for that pesky 8 bit (or RAW). Canon are trying to push me towards the C300 mk2 but that's another jump in price (and has its own niggles for me) - am swinging towards the EVA1 with GH5 or GH5s as b cam, a lot to be said for having cameras that can easily be graded to match
  5. Yeah we get it - your needs are different to others, isn't choice a great thing, move on, keep your camera and be happy instead of trying to think up other spurious reasons why not to get this one. Life can be simple...
  6. And that is a big deal for many - that the GH5s retains the 12 stops of DR at iso 2500 whereas by then the GH5 has dropped to about 9.5 stops
  7. That DP Review chart is comparing photos, this is a video centric forum - when you compare the video of GH5s and the A7s from what I've seen up to iso 12800 maybe even 25000 the GH5s is a cleaner image and the colour doesn't fall apart in the same way the Sony does. From 25000 iso and above the Sony clearly takes over but how many people shoot at those crazy high isos? The Gh5s is better at iso levels where 99% of users will be using it
  8. that's the problem, you can only imagine
  9. the Sony 35mm 1.8 oss is a great lens for the a6300 .Use the kit lens for the wide and use the image zoom on the 35mm to get a pseudo 50mm field of view
  10. yawn - are you also user Satoshi who has just repeated the same fanboy talk on another thread....
  11. Here's a link to the VENICE shot film they showed at the presentation http://ps.sony.co.kr/pro/article/broadcast-products-venice-videos
  12. No - I'm a Canon c100 and Sony a6300 user. Just a bit frustrated with what Canon offers up as a dslr b camera - and not sure the 5d mk4s mushy 1080 cuts it these day
  13. yes it's 2x crop, not too far from 5d mk4 with its 1.7x crop that Django seems to recommend...at least the gh5 has lenses suited to its crop
  14. the a6300 4k exported as 1080 to me looks nicer than the a7s but then I really didn't like the colour science of the a7s and sold it pretty quickly. The colour is much improved I think with the a6300 and it is great in low light up until about iso 6400 - then the a7s pulls ahead.
  15. I think the colour is much nicer with the a6300, the 4k is pretty spectacular, but rolling shutter is really bad
  16. sorry should have mentioned that's not my footage - maybe ask on Vimeo
  17. The SLR Anamorphot-40 1.33x, mounted on a very cheap Panasonic 25mm f/1.7 looks pretty sharp for the money That this is all hanheld is testimony to Panasonics implimentation of IBIS
  18. I tried the 16-70 on the a6300 - problem is if you're wanting to go handheld or just move the camera, anything above 50mm is going to induce pretty severe rolling shutter. Because of this I went for the cheapy kit lens 16-50 for wide shots and predominantly use 35mm 1.8 oss for everything else - and as mentioned the clear image zoom function at 2x makes the 35mm a 70mm with less rolling shutter than the Zeiss 16-70 at 70mm would be. There is a little noise at higher iso but in video mode at least it is quite remarkable how little sharpness is lost with the clear image zoom Also if you're going to use lenses with image stabiliser I'd save your pennies and get a lightly used a6300
  19. I like the 17-55 more than the 24-105, more pleasing image overall for me, nicer bokeh, obviously better in low light and the 24-105 loses light as you zoom unless you have it wide open.
  20. Isn't there a setting on the c100 where you tell it not to compensate for iris stepping when zooming - sorry not got the camera with me and can't remember the actual terminology
  21. am not sure it's an unrealistic standard to expect a camera costing £7,700 to have a 4k 10 bit codec. It's also my only major grumble with what is otherwise looking a fantastic camera
  22. that af does look good. Canon please put 4k 10 bit in the XF-AVC firmware update
