I've always found Gerald to be very transparent and unbiased in his opinions IMO. Maybe others out there not so much but I've used his reviews of gear many times to help make large purchase decisions.

Well, are there instruments for measuring the accuracy of an instruments sound? Thereby taking all of the human factor out of it? Gerald uses charts math and science to review most of the gear on there which requires zero artistic skill whatsoever. Or do you think the engineers at Sony that design the sensors and put together the cameras should have a cinematic portfolio as well?

I think you are confused a bit. He is a gear reviewer from a purely technical standpoint and probably the best there is on YouTube. Can't even begin to understand, what is so hard to understand, about that one.

Hello Sony users. Was wondering if there is a full frame e mount go-to lens for gimbal work? Something that has an internal zoom like the sigma 16-35 for balance issues?

if anyone comes across some raw footage to download of this thing please post

anyone have any links to some a7s iii footage of people?

yeah basically gotta figure out if the sony skin tones are better this time around and gradable, otherwise..........

ugh could this be the one?? but i want my canon colors!!!!!!!

for me, I basically need a b-cam that I can shoot 50 or so 10-20 second clips in 4k60 over the course of an hour or two. Having a hard time figuring out if this will actually workout or not. Now I'm reading the 4k60p is the low quality mode? lolllllllllll wtf. and if i have to keep it in 4k cropped mode why even buy this over a 1dx m2

i dont understand how there isnt a single review on youtube showing the 24p 4k recording in 90 degree air and whether it overheats or not

Yeah I can definitely see the value in having the r5 for the "short clips" of 4k60p and occasional 120 here and there. Especially for shots on a gimbal that would get the 4k60p full frame auto focus in there. Yeah maybe just need to wait longer and see real world results. Someone needs to put a damn r5 in the sun and press record on 24p already lol

Just read, thank you for the insight. Yeah trying to really feel this out since its a costly upgrade. Considering also just 1 r5 for gimbal only and stay with the 2 1dx's for the rest

Okay so specifically for wedding/event/interview long formats (think 1 hour). R5 4000 $ after taxes 1.4 Crop Pixel Bin 4k to avoid over-heating ("indefinite" at 72 degrees, what about 90?) 10 bit 4k, Autofocus, IBIS Half Filesizes with h264/h265 1DX Mark II 3000 $ Ebay Special 1.3 Crop 4K Proven body no over heating 8 bit 4k, Autofocus, No IBIS (but tripods anyway) Nearly double filesizes with older compression ------------------- I wonder if the 8bit vs 10bit will be that noticeable? Having a better filesize would be nice, but otherwise it appears to be a tie with the 1dx being more affordable? Missing anything here to consider? I have the R5's pre-ordered but feeling like they are not worth the upgrade for this specific task.

I want to feel the same way, just worried what may happen say during a hot day ~90 degree weather, will the 4k 24p over heat on a long take or not =/ also if im using the 1.4ish crop for all of my long form shooting.. wtf is the point of buying it over a used 1dxm2? Same crop, more durable, tested and proven body, though I guess 8bit vs 10bit.

I want to see someone record that pixel binned 4k at 95 degrees to see what happens
