Ok, I see that might be the case. Confusing names!
-
Is that not the GX8 successor?
-
I use my GX85 as a B-cam to my GH5 or for when I just want to go light as possible. It's a great wee camera. We've seen a lot of new cameras recently I was wondering if there was any news about a GX90/95? I'd love one more or less the same but with the GH5 o G9 sensor and the ability to shoot 4K 50p (8 bit is fine for me). A mic in would be great too! I'd love to have 2 of them, each with a Voigtlander attached! Super light run and gun!
-
That has yet to be tested! I can tell you that the GH5 just keeps on going....the GX85 as well. The only time it failed (GX85) was when it was around 41ºC and a direct reflection of light hit it without me noticing. Like putting a magnifying glass on it! Still managed about 30mins before shutting down. It was roasting!!!
-
I think many forget one of the greatest advantages of the GH5, it can go on recording until it runs out of cards or power. I have filmed whole day conferences with the GH5 (using the power cable). No other hybrid camera can do that (other than my GX85 bought from Hong Kong with no time limit ) I wish they were cheaper though! 1500€ for a GH5/GH5s/GH6 would be great.
-
Yeah, NDs like the C100 or FS5 would be great. Not a weak one like the XC10.
-
I don't care about af but i really want magnification to check focus whilst filming. That would be huge. Change the headphone input to avoid clashes with the screen. Battery remain in minutes. Move display button. Lowlight like GH5S and lockable ibis. Prores maybe?
-
I'm waiting for a GH5s price drop
-
Haha...you've solved it! I hadn't realised I had put in an older card that wasn't sdxc! Duh!
-
ok..so I think I made a mistake by not saving the other picture styles to the C1, C2 and C3 settings. I can't change the picture settings! In HD (MP4) I have a limit of 20m20s (bottom right of screen). In AVCHD the ability to shoot in 4K doesn't exist (did it before? I can't remember!) In 4K (MP4) I have a limit of 1h24mins (64gb card) like it alway used to show but now it breaks up the file into several 9m and various seconds files without stopping. Previously I could shoot 4K and HD (MP4) with no break until the card or battery ran out and it would record a single file.
-
Good questions, I'll have to check and get back to you!
-
I have a question. Maybe BTM-Pix might know the answer. I have a Pal GX85 bought from Hong Kong which had no recording limit when filming (both HD and 4K). It would happily record until either the battery or card ran out producing one Mp4 file. Now that I've installed Cine-D it still records without stopping but it now produces various 9 minute (and a bit) clips. It wouldn't both me but they have a jump clip between them. Any idea how I can get it to record 1 clip again? If it means removing Cine - D I'll do it but how would I go about that? Any help would be most appreciated.
-
I have got used to High focus peaking with the view finder although if it's a very long shoot I sometimes have to switch eyes!
-
Does the 18-135 work with a Speedbooster or do you have to modify it like the 17-55? With the apsc speedbooster what range and f stoos are we talking about? 24-150 f2.8-4?
-
Dunno what the vintage lenses are like to focus but the focus throw and handling of the Voigtlanders makes them a joy to use. Maybe something to consider.
-
I really hope so. A new Canon C100 type but a bit lighter and taking the best from the P4K, GH5 and FS5
-
What is that tripod? Is it one of those ones that can be changed into a monopod? Looks compact. Is it study enough for the slider?
-
Not sure I can see the photo
-
I don't have a motor. I was thinking of the SliderOne for size and it can be used with or without a motor.
-
Be aware that on the GH5 the ETC is clean in 4K but in HD at higher ISOs it has a lot of noise.
-
I have the SliderPlus, it's a fantastic slider but even it is too big for me. I have been looking to sell it and buy a SliderOne but the Wing looks good too. Why did you choose the wing over SliderOne? Are there any advantages?
-
Depends on what I feel like doing. Sometimes I go with the Sigma 18-35 and a 50-150 (depends on the venue) and other times I go with the SLR Magic 12mm and the Voigtlander 17.5mm and 25mm. I find using the primes makes me think more about what I'm doing with my compositions which can be a good thing. I have shot a whole wedding on the 17.5mm to see what it was like and it turned out fine (GH5 with ETC mode you have a 17.5-24mm/FF 35-48mm, I think).
-
Dunno if i'd call the XLR unit bulky although it's isn't cheap. Works very well mind. Anyway, what I was trying to say is the GH5 is a great all rounder and can used as if it were a more traditional video camera if that's your thing. Forgot about the mini XLR. It's a big bonus. Anyway, for the poster it still comes down to what his needs are as each camera has different strong and weak points.
-
It depends entirely on your specific needs. GH5 - Run n gun (IBIS), video workhorse (long recording, xlrs, batteries, dc in etc), adaptability (lenses), dual slot on cheapish SDs (important when you can't repeat a shot) GH5s - Same as above but trading lowlight for IBIS PK4 - probably very nice for jobs where you can take your time setting up etc and want to grade a lot. Great price Fuji - vey nice look out of camera. Dunno if it can be used heavy duty style like the GH5 Sony a7iii - FF, lowlight Sounds like you might want the PK4 if LUTs etc are a big thing.
-
Haha, it was shot on a GH5 with a SLR Magic 12mm if I remember well. The blown out sun looks a lot worse on Youtube! Some parts were filmed by drone. I can't remember which.
