I am hoping they do something about overheating, not sure what? The S1H went the crazy route with the fans but I guess it was what needed to be done. If you can handle the S1 rolling shutter I'd assume you can with the XT4 as it'll likely be the same if not better than the XT3.

I'd love if there was a 10 bit H264 option so I don't have to always transcode files. Anywho though its not the body that matters as much as the lenses too me. Full frame bodies aren't usually a biggie, its those gigantic lenses.

New godox lights are pretty nice. You can also replace the fans pretty easily. I am pretty impressed with the Godox 200w video light.

Yeah its really just a platform to advertise merch. Hearing what those guys used to make I get it though, that wasn't sustainable.

I'd probably go with the XT3 as you don't get the low light and auto focus advantage the A73 or A7R3 give you. Plus the smaller size is really nice. I was using a Nikon Z6 yesterday, which I highly recommend for video and stills, but I was missing my tiny fuji after holding it for a couple minutes lol. The IBIS is amazing on it though. The XH1 is a good option too. IBIS is nice as long as you aren't doing too much movement with it, like walking. Not as good auto focus as the XT3 and of course no 10 bit or 4k 60p, but you probably don't need that as much. You'll definitely save though, they are going for really cheap these days.

You'd get knocked out doing that in some places lol. Sure its legal but yeah its definitely weird, especially his close up style. Of course his odd looks don't help. Do I give a damn, not at all. I do understand why Fuji pulled the ad of course. But anyways good for him

I mean you can get fast lenses for the GH5 without needing a speedbooster. Depends on what you are shooting of course. If you do lowlight stuff having a speedbooster can be nice. Keep in mind 1600 iso is iffy on a GH4 where as with a GH5 3200 iso looks really nice. Starts to take away from M43 though when you throw a speedbooster with heavy glass on. Might as well just have a full frame camera. In terms of color matching HLG on both cameras is probably the closest thing or CineD. It will be different though and at that point it doesn't really matter what camera you get.

You don't need a speedbooster for the GH5. You should be able to find one or a G9 under $1000. But yeah you can match any camera if you use a color checker.

You can get a used GH5 really cheap these days. You could also get a G9 which also has 10 bit vlog.

I hope the battery life is much improved over the XT3. I know its a bigger battery but the brighter screen and IBIS may end up making it the same life.

If Panasonic can ever get their auto focus together 🤔

I'll definitely be paying attention. A canon camera with the features a Panasonic S1 has would be unbeatable.

No need for a mechanical shutter on the S1H IMHO, very few people are getting it who care a lot about photos. Fuji is super photo centered though, I'd image they'd keep it unless they continue with a video centered XH line.

The XT30 plus a used 18-55 is surprisingly good for run and gun. The lens OIS works really well at all the focal ranges. Couldn't recommend it more. Whatever you get though you'll be able to make some dope stuff with. My first cameras were the GH2, than GH4 than G7. The G85 offers a lot more than those cameras and is cheaper!

Does a full frame like the Nikon Z6 with a speedbooster get the same FOV as a Fuji GFX

Not really for the price. Olympus would be a good option too with slightly better IBIS, but you don't get a profile like CineD. The XT30 is a camera I always recommend but no IBIS and I don't think it has unlimited recording. You do get great ISO performance and nice Log/eterna profiles.

I personally don't care. The man can say whatever he wants. Its great for publicity on the network kind of things. These award shows are a dying breed regardless.

I am totally cool with M43, if there was just a way to get more dynamic range out of the sensors. Higher frame rates are a huge thing for me. So if we are getting good dynamic range, S1 level, and higher frame rates I am down.

Sometimes you need to cry tho😭

Yeah I still recommend the A7S and SII for people on a low budget, for versatility. The S1 beats it out though IMHO

Anything to take the mind off our inevitable death

I am waiting on the viltox 1.4 lenses for Fuji, should have fast AF and are quite a bit cheaper than fuji's 1.4 primes(at least from rumors). The XT4 could be really hard to beat if its got Panasonic like battery life and IBIS. Plus I am expecting a boost in the already good AF performance. My biggest complaint with Panasonic is the AF and you also can't punch in while recording, makes manual focus a lot harder. I use that feature constantly on the Fuji.

I doubt that'll happen

Just goes to show you its all about talent not camera. Of course but here's an experience I had recently. We shot a scene on a sunny day where it was snowy outside. So of course that means really bright highlights. It was a oner where we showed inside and outside the house using minimal lighting inside. The Pocket 6k handled it really well and it has less dynamic range than the URSA. That's about as tricky of a situation as you'll find. What happens when Blackmagic releases a full frame camera with an additional stop of dynamic range of the URSA, well it makes an Arri worth a lot less at least in my eyes.

4k 120p and 8k are big advantages over the Pocket 4k/6k as well as auto focus. Canon won't win fighting black magic at its own game but they'll win with the advantages they have IMO as well as name brand recognition and stills capability.
