Has this been posted on here about Never going FF? Sounds like a crazy statement to me. Why lock yourself in? https://***URL removed***/interviews/8996865021/photokina-2018-fujifilm-interview-we-will-never-go-full-frame

I just want to say that the original Sony A7s Can do 4K, but you Have to have a external recorder to do it. So as not to confuse newer people who might not be up on them, since the A7s is older now. Proceed LoL.

True. But man soft footage is a bitch to over come. Hard to get back what was Never there.

I have no clue how they think they can keep pulling this same crap. If they are really that far behind tech wise they are a dead duck down the road., like them or not. Tech is jumping faster and faster every day. You can't go from the stone age to iron age in a week. There are too many reviews now to hide crap results from the public. They seem somewhat clueless on this video part.

Yikes, other than those 8 steps Easy Peezy.

Ahh I didn't click on the Speedbooster link on the top. 3 pages instead of 2. Sounds pretty silly that products have less items than a side link. Because of that I will Never buy another SB from them LoL.

Boy the Canon is just terrible in that test on every aspect. Crazy.

Best I can find quickly, but not specific to the Ninja V. https://support.atomos.com/hc/en-us/articles/226651447-How-can-I-add-and-use-3D-LUT-s-with-my-Atomos-product-

Buy the Tascam DR-60D MKII over the original one. It has better Pre Amps, and they are nearly the same money if you want to go that route.

I don't know either. But I liked the Original output the best.

Oh wow that is a nice match for them. Sure if you own a Ursa you are buying the PK4. Match made in heaven. And for the person that works at a slower pace the PK4 is going to be great if you are good at grading, coloring. It is a gift like I have said for the money. But it is going to frustrate the living hell out of a lot of people.

The LS300 is just too fragile to use as a everyday throw it in the bag camera. The LCD and EVF suck on it. Ehh, you kind of Need to use them a lot. For gentle use. sure it is a great camera. But no 10 bit in 4K. Not broadcast.

Yeah that is super good! That would be a hard camera to guess what it was shot on.

Yeah for a Zeiss PL to E mount, and Nikon G to Pentax Q. I am sure the latter one are big movers. Have you ever even looked at Metabones Product catalog in the last 5 years?? I see 2 non electric SB that i listed above. And like 12 people are going to buy them. Sure someone may have an old one they make that is dumb. Just tape over, or paint over the contacts and they All can become dumb. Problem solved. http://www.metabones.com/products

If you can't read Chinese don't bother.

Well here is some Sony A7s 720p, 120fps slo mo. Looks pretty good to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Axl_rywRxrs

I don't think Metabones sells Any Dumb Speedboosters. They sell dumb adapters but they have no glass in them that I can see. But I guess there is always a chance they change their product lineup.

Completely agree. But if he only going to do this a few times and not get serious about why bother I guess. I can see that point also. Overall the G85 is good enough, and AF lenses are cheaper for m4/3. Like I said, I wouldn't get involved with it at all to be honest. You can't win no matter how much money you throw at it. Even a A7s doesn't have enough DR to really get the job done. You would have to have a Red VV to get serious results. And even then you need more than one camera operator and camera. Every one I have shot at you had to be in the VERY back and needed a 100-400 lens to shoot it LoL. And hope you brought your 1.4, 2x extenders with you. You are Not going to be walking around in front of the front seats blocking peoples view, or have a tripod blocking the aisles. Ain't happening. Not counting you are not going to be able to Add lighting. Now sure someone like the BBC might come in there and do that. But not just Bob I can tell you that. Parents and people that payed 500 dollars for a front row seat maybe might get a bit pissed off. ?

Hell with your mindset he ought to just use a Smartphone. Probably better than your GH1 was then. If so why do they even need him at all? Not everyone want to Half Ass stuff. It is a learning experience as much as anything. I am sure they aren't expecting Pro results. But Maybe it can lead to money paying jobs. Every school in the world, every local arts divisions have plays. Opera Houses etc. Somebody is getting paid to shoot some of it. Plus it would be interesting work to be able to see free plays, Operas! ? Oh you don''t have to make any excuses about buying the G85. I would like to have one myself. They are a great film making camera for the money. It can do a lot more than you probably have skill to extract from it. Like I said it is not the camera. It is what is between your two ears that count. Skill, and that takes practice and time.

Also the original A7s has some of the nicest looking 1080p out there. A C100 is probably better with it's CS. But I don't know what to tell you. It is tough shooting conditions no mater what you use. I would get on Vimeo, You Tube and see if you can find some plays shot and see what they are using if it looks pretty good. Maybe it is not as hard now with these newer cameras as I imagine?? I guess a Speedbooster and a 0.95 lens would help. But then you loose reach. You can't add lighting. They are Not going to let you do that on Any serious project, even little middle school plays have been done over for years and years. They have the mood, ambience molded in. They are not going to let you screw that up.

Does the the G85 and the GX80 the same sensor? We all know the GH5s is a huge advancement over the GH5 for low light. Panasonic should have just put IBIS in the GH5s, lowered the price of it to the price of the GH5 and stopped making the GH5. It is obvious that the sensor can't be that expensive by looking at the PK4 cost. And then come up with some way to lock the IBIS mechanism and be done with it. Doesn't the Nikon Z7 have that option?

All 200 of us. No 199 of them, count me out LoL. Well maybe. ?

Yeah but 5 years from now All theses FF players will keep driving the price down on FF cameras. Olympus is loosing money on each one now. They can't go lower. Nobody is going to keep buying m4/3 cameras if you can buy a FF one for even the same price, let alone less. And they are not going to get 8K on m4/3 sensor with good results. Heck it is going to be tough to even sell APSC cameras that are anything over a base model one for 500 bucks.. 5 Years from now Smartphones will be so good you couldn't give away a camera to the average person. So who is going to buy enough m4/3, APSC cameras to justify even making them?

That is not saying much LoL. But yeah you are right.

Truth be known even an Arri is not going to get the job done on stage productions. You would have to have 20 stops of DR, perfect auto WB, perfect auto ISO, and have clean footage at 56,000 ISO. Probably the worst changing, challenging, lighting in the world. Every scene is a lighting change, every time a spotlight is moved even worse. No camera can do it justice. Oh an then you have the Audio challenge. Probably some of the worse you can encounter also. It would be the last gig I would ever want to get into as trying to make a living at shooting it.
