Some C300 III 4k 120fps sections in here

Probably a combination of all the above.

The "IS mode" menu I think is the IBIS as on canon you cannot control lens IS from the menu or at least not on EF lenses....

Yep on the newsshooter review is stated that the Lupo uses fresnel nothing wrong with this approach but is not due to led evolution.

I'm not so sure as it could be RAW on CFexpress and 4k proxy on SD..... but we will see. What I'm sure is that the 1Dx III even with two CFexpress you cannot record on both at the same time, only exception is 5.5 RAW + 4K "proxy". Recording limit will probably by 30 min for all fps and 7 min for 120 fps like the 1Dx III.

Canon to complete the job add zebra and waveforms! And include the ND filter EF adapter as goodie in the kit for free😀

4k 120 fps non cropped if it is supersampled is just incredible but probably it will be pixel binned but still 4k 120fps! 8k RAW I was sure it would be possible as the 1Dx III 5.5 k raw 60fps is in that data range.

Lupo does not include battery, chargers or power adapter so it will be more than 159 but for sure less than 349. I find panel less flexible than COB lights but especially if you are doing interviews, corporates etc.. the new Lupo panel seems a better fit than the SL or SLB from godox. Just that there is no magic in output, the lupo use fresnel lens inside this is why the beam is narrow you do the same with the godox and the power will be much more.

They will put a lot of *.. *coming in future firmware updates ...😂 On a serious note I doubt is for watching Canon, it is way too late to change things other than price....probably the idea is to be later so the press blogs etc will talk only about Sony announcement and not both at the same time... Rumor strongly suggests is the C300 iii and Sony has already the FX9 in that price segment so I doubt that there is any overlapping.

The Lupo looks interesting but not sure you can compare with the Godox 60W in output as the Lupo has a beam angle of 40°, not sure with what Godox lux is measured but probably the standard reflector that has a much wider beam angle. A SL-60W with Fresnel 12°-55° probably at 12° gives 25'000 lux at 1m so at 40° my guess it will be more than 10'000 lux..... But the portability and easy to use of the Lupo is hard to beat.

The test of S1H vs 1DX III it is not scientifically done, not even the iso where matching... even then are the iso really matching between cameras (and we know it is not), was he using the same lens yelling the same exposure etc..., was he using dlog enabled (high light protection) in 1DX RAW or not, was the exposure measured with a light meter and not with the camera meter etc.... it was a quick non scientific test just focus on the highlight and not the full DR that proves nothing... classical youtube quick and dirty comparison.... Maybe still the S1H has better DR but until is tested scientifically is just a random guy doing a random test.... Hopefully cinema5d will test the DR of the 1DX III (also there you could argue about the methodology but is definitely much better than random tests)

The FX9 seem a very good camera but It cost less as it offer less.... the C500 II can do 6K RAW internal at 60 FF (zero crop) with DPAF, Sony caps at 4k 10bit 30fps FF or when they will ever release the firmware 4k 10bit? 60 fps Cropped ca. 1.25..... Not really the same..... At 16K there is no camera that can do FF 60 FPS RAW internal with good AF 4k or above.... I would not call it overpriced. For most people in this forum yes but so is the FX9....

I'm quite a fan of enabling EIS on post based on gyro and other metadata. Insta360 allows you to turn it on and off in post so you could decide what is best. For example if you have the camera on a roll-cage in a car you want to have it off but on a helmet you want to have it on. With GoPro's you need to select it first as it does on the camera itself on insta it does it on post. Also in post it could use more processing power of a PC, disadvantage you need to process the files before using it. It is very cool on the FX9 that you can do it in post, I hope Canon will follow as they simply need to add the metadata (maybe is already there).

Sure it does, I would never be able to track somebody at 560mm or at 50 1.4 while doing actions. The limitation is max 30fps at 60fps is manual focus only.

Some frame grabs at 5.5k Grab from 5.5k 60fps 16mm 2.8 at 1/1000 Grab from 5.5k 25fps 1/50, 560 mm using DPAF Grab from 5.5k 25fps, 1/50, 50mm 1.4 on Ronin S

My guess is somewhere in between C200 and C500 II maybe at 11k if you want the FF look mostly for movie you get the 500 II if more doc action etc C300 III with s35..... c200 is the entry level... let see

I don't like to criticize camera comparisons because it takes a lot of effort and is basically impossible to get it right. Just a couple of things are puzzling me: Kind of a wired way to test DR.... by just looking at the highlights..... also how did he check that the exposure is exactly the same (iso don't match already but also iso between models and brands are also not 100% matching)? Highlight recovery is not the same as DR. Also the stabilization test where it is evident (as it should be) that the Panny is better, it is completely ruined by the AF... for something like this I take EIS + working AF than OIS but crappy AF.... as I can put it on a gimbal and solve the issue, much harder to keep the focus.... Would have liked to see also the comparison in HFR between 1Dx III 120 fps vs 180 of Panny..... instead he does not even mention the 120fps of the 1Dx.... Maybe I missed it but he should mention that Panny has as an advantage the flippy screen and many more video features like waveform/zebra, etc....

I use Resolve Studio (paied) to add motion blur for time lapse and works quite good if you have a good GPU, did not try yet with normal scene... you need the payed version for this feature.

From a marketing prospective it make no sense to have both announcement on the same event. Two announcements means more press coverage and more important spread over time... So I agree with you will be Cinema stuff only.

Some more observations: I did try out RAW quite a bit and is quite impressive also in Resolve is easy to work with. I will probably use RAW more than what I first thought I would. I wish RAW 50/60 would still have AF but you cannot have it all… Other than for shutter speed you can pull a picture from the RAW file and it will be almost indistinguishable from a RAW photo (12 vs 14 bit), in some cases I will use a compromised shutter speed so I can get both video and stills. On Canon web site you can download the LUTs: https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/details/cameras/eos-dslr-and-mirrorless-cameras/dslr/eos-1d-x-mark-iii/?subtab=downloads-software For RAW you can decide how much highlight protection by either enabling D+ or Log (yes is confusing), be aware that if you record proxy to this setting will affect the proxy: As already said the menu with all the resolution/codec is super messy I wish you could enable only certain modes…. like disabling all the UHD modes, IBP etc…. Also the 100/120fps is another separate setting and once you disable it put the camera to FHD…. I find very good the AF that has various option for size like small, surrounding, vertical or horizontal zone etc.. a big improvement over the 1Dx II for video. I did try again the Active Track on Ronin S and if you set the tilt stiffness to >80 it has no problem with an iPhone on the hot shoe (1Dx III + 50 1.2 + iPhone X max) Some interesting comparison that I found on youtube (again these cameras are not really targeted at the same audience but still interesting to see): 1Dx III vs C500 II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab2pj8CEJzE 1Dx III vs RED Scarlet W https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUYGQFXlwXY For video a mirrorless version with flippy screen and the RF ND adapter would make an amazing camera…..

To summary up the findings so far around Resolve Studio 16.2 and 1Dx III files: - HEVC ALL-I and IPB 10bit 4:2:2 25fps neither Quick Sync or Nvidia 20xx can HW decode them. From our test seems all done in the CPU. - A top class desktop CPU 9900K can software decode in realtime both HEVC ALL-I and IPB 10bit 4:2:2 25 fps - A top class Notebook CPU 8750H can software decode in real-time but really at the limit (not really usable on a timeline without setting half resolution) HEVC but only IPB 10bit 4:2:2 25 fps not ALL-I (this is a strange one as IPB are more computationally intensive, probably the software decoder is more optimized for IPB). - A top class desktop CPU 9900K with a Nvidia 2080ti can realtime playback RAW 24fps. Probably even at 60fps I would need to upload and send a file to @Trankilstef - A top class Notebook CPU 8750H but with a medium gpu 1050ti cannot real-time playback RAW 24fps, CPU is at 70% and GPU at 100% so maybe a gaming notebook with 8750H or 9750H with a 2070 or 2080 is able to do real-time RAW playback. Hope to find it out soon - A top class Notebook 9750H with 2070 cannot playback real-time HEVC ALL-I 10bit 4:2:2 25fps. We would need to test IPB I just cannot imagine if the R5 at 8K will also be HVEC 10bit 4:2:2 if there is a machine that can playback those files. Hopefully there will be HW decoding in the future for this file type. Thanks a lot to @KnightsFan @Trankilstef and @Matthew19 for the tests and contribution

Just to be sure did you restart Resolve after checking and unchecking as the setting needs a restart?

FYI I have Sandisk Extreme Pro 256 GB and 512 GB cards and both works with RAW. Did not test 60fps RAW yet but did film quite a bit 25fps RAW with no issue.

Inspired by @Matthew19 I did try 10bit 4:2:2 h265 but IPB and on the XPS i7 8750H it can at least play back in real-time in the media preview window and on a FHD timeline on the color tab. CPU is 100%. I did try with enabled and disabled HW decode and got the same result so is software decoded by the CPU. So as the 10 core Xeon CPU of the iMac Pro is almost twice as fast as the notebook class i7 8750H cpu I see why is not problem. Also puzzled why All-I is slower that IPB....

You need to enable the intel integrated graphic card (some PC bios do not allow it at all). But from my test 8750H and @KnightsFan test 9750H quick sync does not work for 10bit 265 4:2:2 files..... Resolve shows media offline. If we turn off we can see the playback but is choppy. Now the question is why the 2080ti can decode realtime 10bit 265 4:2:2 but @KnightsFan 2070 cannot, seems strange.... driver version maybe? On more test that @Trankilstef could do is uncheck the NVIDIA decoder in resolve and see if there is a difference so we are sure that is the GPU decoding. Btw we use all the same 10bit file for the test. @Matthew19 I think without specific HW decoder it is impossible even on a 10 cores to be able to decode 265 via software only. Are you using Resolve Studio too? With a 10 cores and a good GPU it should be possible to do realtime playback of RAW..... @Trankilstef PC can playback real time RAW too
