  1. Looks quite cool, I sold my P4Pro a month ago as is big and very noise and it becomes more and more a problem also with people complaining with these "big" drone. The photo and video quality of the P4p are quite good compared to the size. The idea was to replace it with the Air II that has probably not the same image quality but closing in but much smaller and lighter. But now with all this regulation here, registration above 250g, max 120m altitude, line of sight etc... I'm wonder if for the b-roll stuff a mavic mini will not be good enough, now that they have manual WB and manual exposure... I whish they would have also add sharpness, contrast etc. settings (not sure if it has it or not but it seems not).
  2. I think they should have a FW with middle codec on the C200 and 1 year from now it will be at that price level.... why crating a new model, new manual, new accessories etc... for a C200 without RAW but with 10bit make not too much sense in term of R&D..... Only point to do a new model is for whatever reason the HW of C200 cannot do 4k10bit in whatever codec....
  3. I saw that and it could be something but it is heavy and another piece... also did not find something equivalent here in switzerland at a good price. Ideally they should include the AC power in the same price of the SLB60w
  4. No Time Code input no Netflix. Even the C200 is not there due to this.
  5. I'm looking for some cheap and portable led lights. For bigger things I will rent. I was comparing SLB60w vs Forza 60 as they have similar prices and features: SLB60w advantages: + No cables, a simple one block solution + Bowens mount (no adapted needed) - Reflector less powerful and optimized than the Forza 60 - Proprietary Battery - Expensive AC adapter (cost almost as a SL60w) Forza 60 advantages: + Can be powered by AC included or battery via D-Tap custom cable or has Sony battery adapter. V Mount battery can be used for other things and will last more that the Godox + More brightness thanks to the better reflector + Smaller and less weight on the stand - Not sure but it seems a bit less bright in bar-bulb - Bowens mount via adapter - Power adapter + block instead of a single item - More expensive if you include the battery and charger Anyone has experience with one of them?
  6. No there he can land easily... In this one we manage to take 3 attempts before he missed and he was in the lake😂

    Canon EOS R6

    Venice is s35 at 120 fps in v4

    Canon EOS R6

    boy is a dejavue it was the same for the 1dx iii different text between us and europe... but yes if this is correct then is FF 120fps 4k if it is supersampled would be a major achivement and if it is pixel binned still quite impressive.....

    Canon EOS R6

    Mmmh could not find any official press release that mention 4k 60 or 120 is FF.... https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/about/newsroom/press-releases/press-release-details/2020/20200420-Dev/20200420-Dev Here they just mention it has 8k and 4k DCI FF but not at which frame rate
  10. This is a 400ws strobe with a big reflector on a small inflatable boat just outside the frame.... but I also have some doubts.....

    Canon EOS R6

    Can't be much worst than this as it will not make it in time for 30fps..... as we know that 4k 60 and 120 also have DPAF either are cropped or pixel binned or it is a big improvement over 1Dx III..... hope is the last one but in fact I could not find that 60 or 120fps are not cropped or pixel binned or both If it is a more dense 1Dx III sensor then we will may have: 8k 30fps FF same rolling as 1Dx III 4k 30fps FF super sampled same rolling as 1Dx III 4k 60fps crop 16ms rolling 4k 120fps FF or crop pixel binned 7ms rolling Again if it would do 4k 120fps FF super sampled they would have done a huge advancement in sensor/cpu but we can always hope and dream. I doubt that they have the tech to do 4k FF 120fps with DPAF super sampled and did not put it in the C500 II or 1Dx III.... but still possible. How many FF sensors can do 4k 120fps uncropped? On top of my head I don't recall any ....... Honestly even if it has these limitations and if it priced around the 5d IV release price it will still be an amazing camera just not the monster that all people are dreaming of...
  12. Can't really help as I come from 1Dx II but I sold it 2 days before receiving the III, I also sold a week before my old 1Dx as the idea is to have the 1Dx III and a R5 or R6 (I need two body as I do a lot with remote cameras especially netcam in icehockey) also comparing RAW vs 8bit is not that fair. As I shot all sports in RAW for me it is very good to have RAW video as I can processes it quite similar. In photo the 1Dx III has better in DR (around 1/2 stop or so) up to iso 400 and base 1/2 or 2/3 stop better noise at high iso. I normally shoot icehockey in pro venue at iso 4000 as iso 8000 on the 1Dx II was really the limit but on the 1Dx III iso 8000 was still usable. The test above is for doing things like this (this is a photo is with a strobe so it would need a powerful battery led with fresnel plan to rent 300d to see if it can make it.....)
  13. A random test of underexposure and raise the shadows 5.5k RAW 60fps screen grab (1/1000, F16)
  14. Btw Cinema EOS Original is the default settings when you turn on log.
  15. RS will be max 30ms 8k 30 (so not great at all but similar to 6k SH1), around 15ms at 4k 60 (so quite good )and around 8ms at 4k 120fps. The question is what about 4k 24fps will it be around 25-30ms or 15ms? The 1Dx III seems to be around 25-30 at 24,25,30 and around 15ms at 50 60 in FF. One could shoot 50 fps at 360° and drop every second frame to get 15ms RS but in the 1Dx III you loose DPAF 😞 but on the R5 it should be still available but the next question then is it super sampled at 4k at 60fps (at 30fps I'm ready to bet yes as the data is similar to 5.5k 60fps of the 1Dx)?
  16. You could do also another list for Canon DSLR regarding video: - First having FullHD DSLR - First having 4k DSLR - First having a usable video AF - First having 4k 60p DSLR - First having ND filter adapter - First having FF RAW DSLR - First having 8K DSLR - First having FF 4k 120 DSLR But I agree they never really went all in for video features until the 1Dx III.... and pricing was always all over the place. I think this year is a big turnaround with C500 II, C300 III, 1Dx III that they really did not cripple or try to protect things so I have less of a problem guessing that R5 will not be intentionally crippled. It will have limitation but mostly due to HW than intentional. .
  17. One of the key requirement for Netflix that no canon dslr will fulfill is time code input..... C200 does not have it and so is not on the list.
  18. 1DX iii can subsample 5.5k 60 fps to 4k 60fps for 30 min, so it looks plausible to do 8k 30fps to 4k 30fps that is around the same data..... now higher than 30fps not so sure... Seeing the c500 ii doing 5.9k RAW 60fps with a fan I was doubtful that the 1Dx in a fully weather sealed body could do the same at 5.5k and here I’m using it daily with no issue.... Bottomline up to 30fps absolutely doable, rolling shutter will be an issue but so is on the SH1
  19. I think Canon has finally realized that who is buying a DSLR for Video either don't want a dedicated cinema cameras (like me as I do a lot of photos too my 1Dx II and 1Dx that I just sold had both more than 200k clicks each on it ) or they have a limited budget < 4k usd..... thus a dedicated optimized for video DSLR does not make too much sense as it covers only the second group and the margins are too low. So they go all in with the video features in they photo DSLR and with a single SKUs, body etc try to cover all the above markets with their photo models. Then they have finally a good structure on their C line: Cinema FF 6k RAW C500 II < 16K USD Documentary, Action, etc S35 4K RAW 120 fps, top DR C300 II <11K USD Entry level S35 4K RAW 60 fps C200 < 5.5k USD (here they should add the middle 10 bit codec) Below 4.5k USD is DSLR territory
  20. For photography is almost a perfect camera on paper 12 fps mechanical 20 fps electronic at 45 Mpix, if it has the DPAF of the 1Dx III it will be also very good for action and sports something that the 5d IV was never too good at. Buffer should be also very good as they can write 30 fps at 8K RAW probably at 20 fps 3:2 14 bit should be almost infinite at least in CRaw.... will probably not be blackout free, will have rolling shutter issue with the ES but for 95% of action would be good enough. For video we need to see the recording limit (I'm betting 30min) and if and up to which fps 4k is super sampled (if it can do FF 4k 120fps super sampled it has a monster sensor and cpu) and DR. I tend to think that up to 4k 30fps is super sampled and then pixel binned but I hope to be wrong. Not sure the R6 will be that good on video because at the Cinema event they only talked about the R5 but let see, hope to be wrong.
  21. The sensor is basically on par with the A7R4: https://www.photonstophotos.net/Charts/PDR.htm#Canon EOS 1D X Mark III,Sony ILCE-7RM4 This does not mean that in RAW video it will have the same DR.... but for photo the sensor definitely has a really good DR
  22. Also would be good that is done with RAW at iso 100, RAW with D+ at iso 200 and RAW with DLog at iso 400 to see witch settings is giving better result and then compare to 10big Log too
  23. Where did you see a real dr test of 1dx iii ? As the sensor dr is quite good: https://www.canonnews.com/1dx-mark-iii-dynamic-range-tested-class-leading and so should be the 12 bit raw video. Random youtube tests are worthless imo.
