Video Hummus

Well, I don't normally do this but I'll be first to preorder because I have a feeling this lens will be on backorder for awhile.

Sweet, thanks for the link. I can't wait!

I’ll go one even further and say you’re not a professional either because your not shooting on medium format Arri cameras like real professionals do in multi-million dollar productions. ? You can tease a masterpiece out of almost any modern camera regardless of sensor size. It’s art. The camera is a tool. Just like a chisel is a tool to a wood engraver. And we all know only real wood engravers use #8 sized chisels only ?

I was thinking this exactly with a new GH6 hopefully coming in the future. It will be a very versatile lens with the teleconvert. 20-75 f1.7 is an awesome range. I have a feeling the L-mount cine cam will be too rich for my blood for a bit. My guess is a $5K+ body plus those L-mount lenses are expensive. This 10-20 f1.7 and the Leica 50-200 f2.8-4 will always be in my bag with just one fast 1.2 prime from panny or olympus.

Since it doesn’t include OIS, which is really unfortunate, then I would say no.

This is mostly how I do it. I use back button focus to acquire subject and then use manual to adjust. I would also really appreciate linear manual focus option like is offered on the S series. I also have found that the pull focus assist is very handy for creative shots where you have time to set it up (45 seconds or so).

Wow, the 2,500 rumors was way off. I’ll wait to see a confirmation but man 1,800 is pretty tasty for committed m43 owners.

All those are budget NDs that do well. K&F is probably a better choice but it can have nasty flaring (as do all of these) and vignetting in shots of the sky. If your custom WB balancing then color cast wont be a problem with any of them. I’m thinking of getting a K&F for now. I like the PolarPro variable ND but the price...ouch.

It’s weird because it looks like the Tripod is centered beneath the camera body but there looks to be a lot of rigging far behind the central point. So much so that it would tip backwards if she wasn’t holding it.

Not mine. From l-rumors. @Andrew Reid your right. Definitely just some rigging in the back. Camera is almost completely obscured by the matte box.

I think I’ve seen better images coming out of the S1. Dont worry guys, in a few days Tony will release a completely contradictory video about the same topic so he effectively covers the entire clickbait spectrum.

If it’s a “dream” cine camera like we’ve heard from multiple sources it must be packing something special that we haven’t seen before in its price category. The organic sensor is a plausible candidate.

What’s against the side of her shoulder then? It’s either v-mount stuff or a camera body. Also all the rigging appears to be coming off something towards the back not something behind the matte box. the follow focus is in a weird spot too. You could be right. It’s hard to tell. Why didn’t your image enhancement work like it does in the movies? ?

Looks like a EVA1 form factor PLEASE, please announce ProRes RAW HDMI support for GH5S.

The rumored larger body might allow this. They had to have heard the feedback about the GH5S. Everybody wanted the lowlight ability but with IBIS, like the GH5. It’s being marketed as a Cine camera though not a hybrid and that mostly likely means no IBIS. Regardless, this is a very exciting product announcement!

GH5S has a larger sensor and uses every bit of the MFT image circle. There has to be some leeway in the image circle otherwise the IBIS will cause vignetting during heavy correction.

Hmm, but you could if you had too. And thats my point. Take away the elitism and their isn’t a problem. Except that you aren’t using a 10K camera to charge your client to use.

Tell that to American consumers that are shopping in those Walmart’s filler with Chinese manufactured goods. Or the company CEOs with that take huge bonuses but pay their employees peanuts.

And yet you can shoot a professional film or short or Indy film with a P4K and no one will notice while watching that it wasn’t shot on a “professional” camera. They won’t even care if the story is good.

Then you better be willing to pay higher prices for your goods. Trump wants everything made in America because it sounds good and wins him votes because people think it will create jobs. Yet, almost no one is willing to pay higher prices because they want a “decent” wage too. You can’t have both. China has cheap labor. China is also looking at Africa for its cheap labor. This is when you realize most things in this world have been built off the down trodden and less fortunate.

Come to think of it. Probably a S1 sans IBIS 33MPx sensor for 8K 4K120p crop mode Better internal codecs (maybe ProRes...but unlikely) Mini XLR input ProRes RAW via HDMI only No top LCD screen

Yeah, if it's a S1 video only camera I would be worried about MFT moving forward. I think they might do a GH6 and charge a premium for it but beyond that...it's full frame hype machine...until medium format video comes along...then large format. Can't wait to watch youtube videos at f0.85 FF equivalent ?

This is out of the blue. Why would they wait to release a cine focused S1 full frame camera? I could see them offering a EVA2 Full frame L-mount, but that isn't in the LUMIX brand neither is the Varicam. And is Sony launching the A7SIII and Panasonic had this camera on standby to compete? Yeah the rumor sites sells itself to camera brands, I imagine, as free marketing for inside tidbits groomed for release.

There is no perfect camera but you have to give credit to Panasonic for offering so much in an affordable form factor that is the GH5 workhorse.

Baby MFT EVA with weather sealing, beefed up GH5S sensor, internal ND, and XLR input. I would think so. Unless they are broadening the LUMIX brand with this new camera. They would do well to give us a GH5S firmware update too. It’s basically a cine-focused camera. Now that I think of it, the GH5S was either a test run for something like I described above or just a one off market filling niche product. If they release a mini EVA without some love for GH5S I’ll be feeling kinda mad.
