If it's still based on contrast it will never be as aggod as hybrid systems. But it's definitely better for image quality.

To be honest it's not even average. You have to study a lot and most important see great videos and search the way they did those. Catching a camera that is capable of decent to great image doesn't mean you are capable too. Don't give up and keep going.

Agree. They gathered too many advantages plus the recording function.

Well I believe they will go to safer path and not mix record uses and file containers. This could trouble and confuse users and possible customers and Sigma is not very famous for that ? On the contrary they are like BM, they love simplicity and Spartan way of use. I love this .

Rumors are saying that Foveon camera wil use exactly the same camera form, same idea but with foveon sensor as the heart of that camera. But do not expect serious video capabilities and high iso.....that's why FP is out there to cover that negative side of foveon.

what about 4k?

One of main uses of Sigma FP is operating like a director's VF to mimic other large format (from APSC to FF even to LF?) cameras by using the LVF-11 So could you imagine the confusion if the camera couldn't shoot by using the whole sensor area and crop finally ?

If the UHD internal was at 10-bit I would agree. Now we have to wait to see the whole picture.

So next generation of hybric cameras will be on dillema to use either Braw or Prores Raw ? In order to establish the needed sensors ?

My guess is that will be indeed around the £1700 zone (maybe a bit lower excluding VAT) and I confirm that will be delayed further and propably after november.

I still get info that FP will be priced under 2000$/€ (including tax)

the biggest issue is the non internal RAW recording capability. That's a huge disadvantage.

previous model was superb but not bright enough for outdoor use. I would buy that even if they have increased brightness only , imagine with all those features they have it loaded I don't find that possible. They must have signed an agreement with atomos in order to use prores raw. I would love Sigma FP to could use that recorder.

Also 2500 nits brightness is a superb advantage to avoid further outdoor solutions.

You forget BMPCC6k ( and upcoming Red Komodo).

Atomos would have an itch...?

500$ for an anamporphic glass ? With their profit in this price ? And you have great expectations ? ?

There is plenty of time till they release a good number of lenses in order to consider buy one. They may fix AF too ?

Ι believe it's a problem that could be solved through firmware. Has anyone notfied Panasonic for this ?

First cameras will be in testers hands on next week propably.

High fps that are A9 trademark is a hard spec to merge with high quality video hybrid camera.

Ι don't know about ibis but if you need 8k and you can't afford RED helium or VV there is always mother Teresa of indy cinematographers I know BM is working on that.

And after all we blame BM for this choice.

There is absolutely none possibility to merge A7s and A9 series. First aims at video centric clients and second aims at professionals . Especially when Sony doesn't have a DSLR flagship like Eos1D they will insist on those models.
