I have some stuff from Ugreen. They are higher grade than the usual Chinese accessories. I use the Tilta cable.

Ultraboost for sure. I am wearing one right now! They have black friday discounts at the moment, or you can try at an outlet. Usually they go 30-40% down in just 3-4 months after release. You can get 2018 version for even 50% at some outlets. I have 1) supernova with Boost and climahot (fur) for cold 2) another Boost with more stability 3) ultraboost for very light and breathable 4) boost with GoreTex for rainy days or lightly off road situations.

I found Adidas various Boost shoes to be the most comfortable. I have various ones for different occasions (for warm days, with Gore-Tex when outside on a rainy day, for cold days e.t.c). Shoes are maybe the most important part of our equipment!

I am not sure how wise this move was. Obviously, this is a market that hasn't even reached its peak yet and Panasonic had a foothold already there, however small that was. They also loose some of their financial diversity. Taiwanese are going all in, and gain some interesting patents for their troubles. All in all, Sony Semiconductors is practically a monopoly right now.

8K is significant for VR and 360 video. Those fields really need the resolution. Even in those cheap cameras 4K vs 5.7K has a difference. But imagine an 8K camera with m43 sensors on it, it can be probably intercut with P4K and current or future m43 cameras quite easily.

That is false. 416 is an RF condenser, the only cheaper mic "build like 416" is the NTG3, all else are marketing nonsense. Deity just put some glue on the electronics! http://recordinghacks.com/microphones/tag/rf-condenser I own the DPA 6060, how they sound for the size is just amazing! Countryman are very good also, no need for extra cash there.

I would like to see BM add m43 profiles for correcting native lenses. I am using the 12-100 Olympus, which is alright if you start from 16mm or something, but it ain't usable under that. I hate speedboosters and adapters, they always create problems, but they are ok for manual lenses and my Samyangs. For run and gun I would suggest go native (m43).

It is good that we have so many options these days. Why you sold the 600? I do not see the Deity as a serious upgrade,very different mics anyway. The Sanken is the feel good hit of 2019 for me. So practical and good performing that it has canceled most of my mics that I had to sell a couple already. I do a (TV) prime time comedy right now and it is used like 80% of the time, it is that good. Balance your budget carefully and you may find room for a better mic. Money spend on sound are money well spend. A good sounding microphone now, will be a good sounding microphone in 20 or 30 years, and there are no new mounts or better focusing systems to render them obsolete! It is no coincidence that most of us soundies keep an 416 with us all the time, a design of late 60s, that will work no matter what, when other more natural sounding but more delicate mics can fail. I know some people still using their 70's 416 T-12V! Another thing is wind protection, that is may more important than the mic itself if you shoot outside! I would prefer a 500$ microphone on a Cosi, than a 1500$ microphone on a foam and fur setup! So, I would strongly recommend the Cinela Cosi, check the video when they use it with the GH5, this is the Cosi Medium which is the right one for the Sanken. the best production sound source on the internet right now, hear it from a real working professional with some experience on his shoulders. My opinion is, either go really cheap, because it doesn't really matter and if one cares for sound can find other ways to improve its game (e.g put a microphone like the 600 on a stand where it matters more), or spend more and get something that will not change next year.

Congrats guys! Very important project. How are you going to match all those different cameras? Do you have a specific workflow for that? What filters do you use on your Mavic?

"- Revolutionary acoustic design – delivers unmatched acoustic transparency and a natural, uncoloured sound similar to a broadcast shotgun mic." So why do they still sell their other NTG microphones? This is an exaggeration for sure. This is clearly competing against newer Deity and Azden on camera mics, do not see many of us sell our Sennheiser/Sanken/DPA/Shoeps microphones for this. I still believe the MKE440 is the best on camera solution, directional stereo is the best idea. I also expect my Sanken CS-M1 on the Cosi to be a lot better in every aspect (sound quality and characteristics and wind and handling protection) and that is really a boom-able solution. Certainly seems like the best on camera mic Rode has to offer, but that doesn't mean their older designs were very good. In all my years in video productions and 20 years as a soundman, I only owned the micro and I recently bought the NT-SF1 from Rode. It is good that there are a lot more new audio products in the market, I just hope some young people will educate more themselves into sound production.

Haha! They obviously read from a teleprompter and they do not seem very charismatic anyway.

Actually, the NX30mm 2f seems to be smaller at 61.5X21.5mm (and 85gr)than the 63X25.5mm (and 100gr) of the Lumix and quite fast at 2f. Canon EF-M 22mm is 60,9X23,7mm 105gr. https://www.samsung.com/uk/camera-lenses/30mm-f2-0-pancake-lens/

Doesn't Sigma offer an 19mm 30mm and another one short-ish option? Samsung thought it right back in the day. Incredible 10mm fisheye and 30mm 2f and very good 16 and 20mm very small and very reliable pancakes. Still use an old NX3000 and an NX500 with those, when the NX system started everybody were complaining about the lenses, finally, it was their main strength. One can argue that except AF, NX500 is a better camera than any a6xxx.

I am glad I went with Braw in the end. It seems like the best and most supported "independent" compressed raw format right now. This is a great opportunity for BlackMagic to gain more market share on raw formats.

Full frame 4f is good enough for most shooting conditions and styles anyway. Modern sensors are producing nice and clean images in higher ISO, and the difference in price/size and weight is substantial, so it is a no brainer for me to go with the 4f. I had this particular dilemma recently with the EF 70-200 and of course I went for the 4f. It is 2020, not 1980! Ofcourse, try first - buy later. Everyone's needs are unique.

http://www.idxtek.com/products/sl-f50 I bought 2 of those for specifically powering the Pocket camera. I hope the usb is enough to power the nucleus motor. I had the time to just open the box yesterday! I will buy the app tonight. How about your controlers?

@BTM_Pix crazy! just received my Nucleus yesterday!

Has anyone have experience with it? Does it work?

recording for hours with one NPF battery. I have many types, but those are my favorites, because I can power other things too http://www.idxtek.com/products/sl-f50 The SmallHD Focus monitors are smaller than most cameras anyway. I use one.

The guy didn't create anything. He obviously is/was a good businessman, did a great investment on motion picture cameras and succeeded for some years, now that they are free falling, he is the one taking the only parachute on that airplane (Red). Whatever made Red great (mostly overpretending patents, good lawyers and massively overpriced hardware) are almost done. Anyway, whatever. He is not my friend, he is not my enemy. He certainly had a great time in this planet and a lot more resources to enjoy his retirement than most of us (or all of us together!) will ever have. Godspeed!

Good to know about the Viltrox issue. I am not upgrading yet, then!

I have never used the Ronin S I own almost a year now. I use the small Edelkrone in every project I have done the last couple of years. It is very small and very convenient. No excuse for not using it.

How strange a humble Tamron to perform like this! The 12-60 is a bit better than the Olympus in the wide end, but the big issue in general is the 12-17mm. The 18mm Canon's I tried were a lot better. Thank you very much for the recommendation.

Maybe a firmware update with lens profiles for the most popular lenses will add that angle to the camera and make more people happy than less people. I am 100% sure that I am not alone on that.

45 seconds for how many shots? And what about 12-13-14-15-16-...100mm?
