DBounce

Canon recommends shooting at ISO 400 or greater for maximum dynamic range when Canon Log is selected. Lower ISOs may produce less noise, but do so at the cost of less dynamic range (EOS R Advanced User Guide - page 242). Personally, I do not mind the noise on the EOS R. It looks like film grain, not digital confetti.

I love it. This can be a real life saver.

I shoot pretty much only in 4K. The EOS R does capture 4K. So?

I love the image. Prefer it to the other hybrids I've used/owned. So that's pretty much the entire crop of currently available bodies. For me the Ninja V is as much for convenience of monitoring as for capture. My EOS R is mostly on the motion controller. When mounted the screen cannot flip out. Make no mistake of it, if I loved the others I would still own them. I will buy the "Pro" body when released. Until then I'm focused on lighting.

You can send 10 bit 4K log out via hdmi. I don’t think internal log is an option. But I’d have to check. Mine lives connected to the Ninja V.

The NX1 was great... back in the day. And back in the day I owned one with their S lens. But even then, I hated how the image moved. Something about the motion cadence looked very video to my eyes. Also dynamic range was less than great, with blacks being crushed. The S lens 16-50 was great, but the system was limited. Also the codec was not exactly edit friendly at the time. No way I would go back to the NX1. On the upside, the UI was great. Clearly a node to Samsung’s experience in smartphones. The NX1 was a hybrid and as on the video side, on the stills side the Canon easily murders it. That’s not to say it was not capable of capturing great pictures. But the Canon is the superior tool. I would have loved to see a sequel... but there’s already a thread about that.

Yeah, but did you notice that this thread is about the EOS R and C200? And guess who came along to give their two cents as to why everything else under the sun is better and why the EOS R is crap? Upside down much? What color is the sky in your world?

I’ve owned all those cameras... I still own the C200 and do not miss the rest. There is really one major reason I prefer the EOS R to the other hybrids... I prefer the image.

Not sure where you are reading that I have somehow flip flopped on the R. It’s an easy to use body that puts out a great image. I don’t own every Canon lens. And have no plans to get everything they produce. I own what works for me. The new R super wide 15-35mm F2.8 will be in my collection once available. But outside of that I do not feel drawn to anything else at the moment. I rather like the EF ND adapter. It has given new life to my EF glass. None of this is a knock on the R. Is it perfect? No! But what is? I will say this, if you believe all it’s good for is static shots then you need to re-examine your shooting technique. Because there are many examples of it being used successfully in non-static scenes. Oh noooosss... the rolling shutter?

As I already own the EF version the R version seemed redundant to me. Noise is not a issue as I alway record external if the audio is important. Internal is just scratch.

I have the Moondog Labs 12.5mm Anamorphic adapter. Been awhile since I’ve shot with it. But here is a quick play I had with it on the iPhone X...

Can't agree with @Andrew Reidon much of what was written. Olympus menus are notoriously bad. Af in video is not usable. And $3k for M43 is a joke. Ergonomics on EOS R are very good. Menus are typical Canon. The crop may not be ideal, and the rolling shutter may not be the best, but the above video is filled with moving shots, and looks pretty darn good. So clearly, in the right hands the camera can produce great imagery. I can't speak to the 50 f1.2 or the 35mm f1.8, as I do not own them. But the 16-35 f4 and 24-105 R lens are lovely to work with. The ND adapter is awesome with no color cast. The camera is as solid as any of it's rivals. I don't miss M43... GH5/S sorry. Not craving P4K. If you work within its limitations it will not disappoint. Until the pro body comes out, I'm good to go. My next focus is lighting. I have a set of Hive Lighting Bee 50-c and Wasp 100-c arriving tomorrow. I played with them briefly in the past and those bad boys up the game considerably.

It's easy for people especially in this forum to get hung up on specs, but I think the image, ease of use and reliability are more important than specs. The EOS R, IMO is the more organic of its' contemporaries. It's the only modern camera where users are actually turning up the sharpness in camera. I actually have come to love it; especially when working as a B or C can with the C200. Raw would be great. Internal is nice, but external is better than nothing. I'll happily take it. I'm hoping for DCI with the 10 bit RawLite on the C200... the 8-bit is only UHD. I would also love to see DCI 4k on the R. Who would've thunk it, Canon releasing feature updates. Let's hope it's true.

Would love to see these features added to this pair. It would boost sales hugely. I’m not sure what, if anything can be done for the crop in the R, but if it could be addressed many would jump on board.

I would not be surprised to see the EOS R gain external Raw support. I think that would be awesome and would help them counter the Nikon’s support of Prores Raw.

YouTube certainly supports 1440p on Android... and maybe 4k, but you need to own one of the 4k Sony phones to test that out. YouTube is limited to 1080p on iOS as Apple does not support the VP9 codec that YouTube uses for video compression of footage with resolutions beyond 1080p.

That's exactly what I have come to understand. Honestly, all of the top cameras produce a good enough image for serious work. It's the other components that most of us are missing. Creative lighting, thoughtful camera movement and most importantly... a good story. Find a system that works for you and shoot. Work within the limitations. Focus on telling the story. That's get you get better.

I think at that price medium format starts to make more sense. You are getting something truly different. Something that might expand your creative process. Just a thought. I’m keeping away from new camera bodies until the next breakthrough... or the new 1DXMK3... whichever comes first ?

I think it’s easy to get hung up on the tools. The convenience of the smartphone will triumph over the image quality of a dedicated camera much of the time. With advancements in sensor design, combined with machine learning supported by companies with deep pockets, we can be almost assured, that the next quantum leap will likely appear first in a mobile unit. The “do everything” aspect of the smartphone is its ace in the hole. Smartphones are murdering the dedicated camera industry. That said, I would rather a bag of holes... than a drill. We need to remember the camera is merely a means to an end. The more convenient reaching that “end” is, the better.

The Ninja V rocks. It's a must have imo. I am only without it when I need to travel light. It's so helpful when framing, getting good exposure. These days I rely on AF almost exclusively, though I would not trust the Nikons AF to that extent. Which makes the Ninja V an even better choice when combining with the Nikon. I think I'm done with new cameras until the next breakthrough... per/pixel gain adjustment. Once that becomes a thing I will be interested enough to explore new bodies. Cured of GAS, I am now focusing on content. Which feels great to say. We are finally a parity amongst camera manufactures. Pretty much any of the top contenders is good enough to get the job done. This leveled playing field means manufactures will need to push the envelope to rake in new sales. 2020 should be interesting to say the least.

Slow-mo is something I almost never use. Though I understand some need it.

Having owned both of these cancers, the X-T3 is more fun to shoot. But if I had to pick one, it would be the Nikon. It has a distinct advantage in stills. I'm not so concerned when it comes to the crop difference in video. But would miss the extra DOF in stills. That said, you can get great results from either body. AF works great on the Fuji, staying useful even as the light drops. The Nikon was not as capable in this department in my experience. Honestly, both are up to the task.

We do not own the sliderkamera 6 axis, but we do own both motion controllers and gimbals. The gimbals are great if you are filming on the go and you are not the subject. They are no good if you are filming yourself. The motion controller makes more sense in this case. Granted the motion controller is also useful as a second shooter. We use both the Ronin S and Edelkrone Motion Kit with HeadPlus. Both are quick to setup. The Edelkrone can be aimed by hand, which is a real timesaver. If I could have only one, it would be the motion kit. Why? The motion kit captures cinematic motion every time. It never makes mistakes because the human factor is removed from the performance. Every move is repeatable; which makes for the possibility to create some very interesting vfx scenes.

I saw this posting over at the Z-Cam Facebook group. It seems there is a vender working on producing a new Anamorphic lens for the M43 system. The vender claimed that the new lenses would be quite affordable. It's expected to make the light of day in about three months. Here is a picture of the lens.

Clearly you do not understand a word that I'm saying. That's OK. Keep buying spec sheets... That "definitely" trumps output. Winner winner chicken dinner.
