  1. ​Wow, THIS. Have a MF setting in the menu : AUTO [current implementation], 90, 180, 270, 360 settings. You could change the focus throw to suite your taste. I would not hesitate to buy samsung lenses for video if this was a feature.
  2. Okay Then: Hopefully possible - Clean 8-Bit 4:2:2 1080p output- Currently it only exports clean 4K, so we cannot use an external recorder with the excellent 1080p mode on the camera. -Digital Punch in while filming/Adjustable in frame -120 fps mode under the 1080 24p setting. - Exposure Compensation in Manual Mode - Exposure compensation that just adjusts the ISO, controlled on rear control dial, for heavily backlit scenes when shooting weddings/docs. Just have it adjust nothing if its not set to Auto-ISO - Ability to map Audio level to the control dials -Digital Telephoto - Similar to ETC Mode on GH series, center crop of the sensor in 1080p. -Ability to manually enter focal length so old lenses work with flashes Long Shots LOG 4K Anamorphic Mode - Center of Frame for 2X Anamorphics, would also hopefully help with rolling Shutter because it would not be downscaled. 6.5K Bursts at 24p (however long until the buffer maxes out) 240 fps 1080p Burst (however long until the buffer maxes out) Also if you can get a word in have them talk with Adobe about getting H265 working in Premiere Pro, they already bundle the camera with Lightroom, so they should have a dialog between them already.
  3. ​Hey Andrew, would love a Center Crop 4K mode on this camera. Main problem for video at the moment for professionals is the Rolling Shutter in 4K mode (1080p is AMAZING). I'm assuming this is because of the way the image is being generated, 6.5K being down scaled in real time to 4K. I think it would be great if we could have a mode that takes the center 4K off the sensor, avoiding the downscale and thus improving rolling shutter at the expense of a cropped image. You'll still be able to have the current 4K video modes and their amazing image quality, but it would be great to have a mode like this when filming documentaries or fast action.
  4. I'm also anxiously waiting for it, love the camera and I think it will be godlike when we get native editing. I've edited the files in Blender, and the 4K almost plays ~19 fps, and 1080p is very smooth on my system. I'm wIlling to bet Premiere will be the first to support it, before AVID & Final Cut. The have the broadest codec support. Always remember, if you want something supported in your favorite NLE, your should contact them and say so. The more users they hear that want a feature, the more likely they are to implement it!
  5. God I love the look of the Kine cameras. Hope they find success. If I ever get into more feature films (right now mainly doc work) I'll probably invest in them, 3K 16-bit is astounding. Still hoping they find a US Distributor. ​You can find some samples of the Cineform files that the kineMINI produces online, excellent non-raw codec that edits in all editors and has more efficient encoding than ProRes.
  6. On ergonomics: The goddamn record button is in the worst place possible on the Sony series of cameras. I shoot mainly doc style work that is mixed with photos. On my NX1 the image preview button set as video standby (can hit with my pinki), the wifi button set to record (hit with thumb), and the rear rotating command dial set to ISO. Set up like this I can be recording video and shooting photos without having to change my grip at all. Add this to the much more comfortable grip, it's no contest between the two in what I prefer.
  7. Still, improved 1080p is great news! Still wondering if that means faster frame rates.
  8. WOW. I am so glad I invested in this cam. Optimized FHD fast/slow movie option = faster framerates and better resolution??
  9. Everyone is talking about the 4K on this camera, but they really should be talking about the amazing 1080p as well!
