Lovin me a classy Mattias Burling "5 reasons" video. Watching in a minute.

Hey Jon! Pretty set up, pretty good lookin!:)I have the same cage I think, labeled as Rollei 4K. So on the right, when looking on your photo, I see a HDMI clamp. How is the connection from you BMD assist to the micro HDMI of the G80, solid enough with the clamp? Is it the 7inch 4K model? Are you liking the quality of the external recording better then the h264 footage? So many questions about the G85 in a mighty 1DXMII and GH5 thread. cheers

Steve has done some of the most beautiful writing on cameras, I had a chance to come across when surfing the web back then. His GF1 article was dope. His GF1 and Oly Pen comparision, his Panny 20mm1.7 vs Nikon nifty fifty comparision- beautiful reads. Always loved the guy and some of his awesome contributors. He has done plenty to me to inject the sparkle of joy into me. Nowadays I don´t visit his site on a daily basis anymore, because Eoshd and video has been taken over:) Just recently I had a beautiful read of one of his friend-contributors about Rollei 35mm cameras. Always good to appreciate the people with heart and passion and their content and their awesome achievements and contributions. Thank you, Steve Huff. Awesome write up, Arikhan! Beautiful words! You are still a youngster? Great contribution, thank you!

DXOMark... Seems like the Oly EM1 II is a piece of witchery compared to the GH5 then https://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Compare/Side-by-side/Olympus-OM-D-E-M1-Mark-II-versus-Canon-EOS-5D___1136_176 https://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Compare/Side-by-side/Olympus-OM-D-E-M1-Mark-II-versus-Canon-EOS-5D-Mark-II___1136_483

Thoughts? Maxi, the legend is back! Awesome. Glad to read you again, Max!

@tonysss Exellent montage and flow. Great handling of the camera with that tiny lens and akward focussing ring too.

Short turnaround fits the video well. I like the way it is planned out. Good rhythm, framing, great energy and awesome train running through the background. Very effective and very well done!

It has lower resolution than the 28mm 2.8, which is due to its nature of having shorter focal length. Didnt put it to proper testing when it comes to bright sunlight other "bad" light though. It is not a resolution monster for sure. You might wanna get the Tamron 20-40 2.7-3.5 for much cheaper. It should be just as good on the wide end. If shot on APSC even better due to less vignetting compared to photo full frame format.

Dear Jon, yes, scenario is the main criteria, be that climatic, experimentally motivated or commercial ones f.i. I don´t think it is ETTR what you are doing. I think it is getting the maximal amount of light before the nasties are appearing, in order to avoid noise, in order to get the maximum potential and not always immediately visible visual information. With RAW it is supposed to be ETTR big time. Taking pictures with my GF1, even in RAW, it is a no go. But exposing as much as possible is still desirable regarding quality of the signal. I think, it is that what you are aiming for. And sometimes that can be -1/2 dialed into the camera, because sometimes camera meters are different than others. In my bright sunlight scenario with huge dynamic range and plentyful light to feed the sensor, the risk of noise was much lower than the huge risk of nastily overexposed mess. That mess could have never been rescued afterwards, not technically nor in any pleasing visual manner at all. For the jerky movement with auto shutter, I can see it very often too. Just check my bicycle video, if you like for stuttery motion because of that. I filmed a little exercise two weeks ago, with auto shutter, -2/3, in softer GX85 HD and by accident with gruesome ISO 1250. But it turned out kinda pretty, because amount and even more the quality of natural light was beautiful. Regarding color shifts, that is even a thing one can try in Resolve. Pure white can expose nasty greyish purple if pulled down in post. So for filming or acquiring material, it sure will show how we expose. And getting the curves right in Resolve can be a tricky one too, sometimes a lucky one. Once I graded one of your G81 videos and it turned out awesome, because you had captured great quality light. Event though I dled it from youtube. In Glenns videos I never noticed stutter, neither in Jase´s. Only in mine, which is not fair! So I usually prefer to stick to a fixed shutter. I actually recognize stutter and jittery motion, with anything that doesnt involve faces. And on my HDMI monitor I can see the jagginess, I wasnt able to see on the VGA I have been using until only a few months ago. Tilts and Pans sometimes look terrible. It´s quiet an art to do handheld with these Panny photo cams. Was amazed @mercers videos because his camera movement always looked stunning. I wish you all happy shooting and experimenting.

I do that when in bright sun light filming docstyle. Autoshutter and -1/2 to -2/3 underexposure with 95% zebra.

Nice achievement. I like the rhythm and pace and framing and directing. Storywise it is what it is, done with the intention of the client. Pretty lady in there too:)

Yeah, to find beautiful vids I search for lenses and equipment. Typing GH1 into vimeo search gives me some of the most beautiful shot stuff to look at. For photos the same. Back then I used to look up Yashica Electro 35 CC alot at Flickr, looking for photos. CC is important because it´s the model with a 35mm 1.8 lens. Beautiful camera to take pictures with. Awesome lens too. I found the D4 video looking for Distagon 28mm. I think I will jump on the Zeiss wagon some day. But that glass mighty expensive! Still adore your Canon FD 35-70 F4 video, lensfootageporn at its best! By the way, not much cool video footage out there with the Angi-Tokina 28 70 2.6-2.8. That has to change, I bought one yesterday!

Have been thinking about getting a GH1 for a while. Some of the most beautifully shot vignettes on vimeo are GH1 stuff, because of the mojo and the spirit of that time- people been exited about that awesome technology of their GH1 camera and astonished about shooting with vintage optics back then. But then, will it give me so much more pleasure to use it than a G6 (almost as cheap to buy) or my GX85 because of that shortlived tradition? Another cheaper camera, my G7 doesnt get used at all, because I dislike the tactile feel of it. So I got two really cheap cameras and a bargain camera (GX85). Also got a E-PL1, E-P2 and GF1. Lost in the m43 universe. Hey, someone said, GF1 would be the poor, poor, poor mans Leica. So, anybody wanna buy it from me and put Vitalys hack on it?:) Nah, I keep it!

Nikon color science and Zeiss goodness making the older Nikon D4 shine. Should be even better on the D750 regarding resolution and much better regarding quality of codec. Anyway, why not get a Canon 1DC combining both: awesome color and good 4K resolution and the possibility to adapt some Zeiss glass in Contax Yashica mount or the Zeiss ZE lenses without adapters?

Would you mind to post it? I love beautifully shot BMPCC stuff.

I think for street photography I´d love to shoot with an Oly EM10 and the 14mm Panny lens. The autofocus of my 20mm is bugging me, manual focus is not a pleasure neither. It has beautiful optics with cheap ergo and not pleasant tactile features. So the 20mm in the gestalt of a SLR Magic 12mm 1.6 would be awesome. Would be my one and only lens if I had to choose.

@Mattias Burling, you hinted towards all of them being APS-C. So here comes my guess: 3rd one has a threedimensional look. Must be a Foveon camera just like in your video. So camera 3 is your 80 dollar Sigma DP camera, shot wide open. Though you got very lucky with that price. Should get a Sigma DP Merrill some day or all three of em:) Second one has harsh chroma. Would say the 500USD camera with a vintage 28mm 2.8 lens, also wide open. First one is the 2000USD camera, maybe Leica M8 with a 35mm. PS. The fixed Sigma lenses on their DP compact cameras are some of the best lenses one can find in the APS-C format.

Would be awesome to have the panasonic 20mm 1.7 pancake modded. Well, I couldnt afford it, but would love to see the result of such optical and mechanical beauty.

8bit Sony will show artefacts quicker than GH5. Slog especially in that carnation will show artefacts quiet easily. Slog of external 422 8bit recording with the Sony FS700 shows banding and blotches pretty quick. 8bit and slog is kinda tricky.

Lens looking awesome. The Meteor zoom for the Krasnogorsk is much cheaper but not with that kind of image.

@Kisaha, @Andrew Reid, I second that. Doesn´t feel like good vibes!

@Grimor, nice edit and framing and pace, perspective. Nice job with the colors as well. What lenses did you use? Exellent choice of focal lenths! Great job!

Hey Glenn, @mercer, you must put Andrew at @Andrew Reid, so he can recognize your question better. I´m also very interested in that question I takes quiet some practice to get smooth movements other than tilts n pans and 3 feet push ins with the GX85. I´ve been practicing quiet a bit and it is kinda edgy. Using it with a cage and a rubber band, which helps a lot.

Hallo Mick, nice filming. The moody start at the beginning was in the known manner of such mood/people pieces, nonetheless solid. Out of that I really liked the cheerful part with the youngsters having a great time at the beach- nice perspective and framing and focal length. I really liked the energy of the surfing stuff. Maybe a little story or storyline would be nice to give it some narrative interest. Something like preparation, collective cheering afterwards about the great surf moves. The music I found rather of the generic moody style, typical modern video soundtrack style. Anyhow, good camera work and exiting surfing footage and filming!

Yeah, great cams! If the C200 only had 2K 12 bit Raw in that 3:1 dataratio. Slog- looks like it! Haha! Out of likes again. Gotta get to sleep now. Good night, bud!
