Dave Maze Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 When can we preorder? I’m excited to get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 For all the naysayers I have this: FF mirrorless with 10bit external! That is something which NOBODY in the world is doing! And normally to get FF 10bit you must spend over US$30K to buy the likes of the Canon C700 FF as your cheapest ever option. Until that is the Kinefinity Mavo LF which got announced the pricing yesterday of US$12K for the brain. But this Nikon with a recorder would be much cheaper! And what perfect perfect timing by Atomos to have brought out their compact and affordable Ninja V! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 10 bit’s overrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntblowz Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 It’s easy tell who is Sony fanboy on this thread lol Meanwhile I put the Olympus 9mm on A7iii to have some fun, I might get z6 and dump A73 when it is available to buy. Sony colour is still meh after using for a few jobs now, might get that ninja V too. MacMurphy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-X-C-I-T-E-D I got so keen on the GH5S when it was the first ever to get timecode support: http://ironfilm.co.nz/leaked-the-specs-of-the-panasonic-gh5s-finally-we-get-the-first-stills-camera-with-timecode-i-o/ But then the GH5S disappointed me: https://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic/26493-panasonic-gh5s-timecode-might-be-majorly-flawed/ Hope Nikon doesn't disappointment me like the Panasonic GH5S did!

jonpais Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Because I just flushed $8,000 down the toilet. I can’t tell engaging stories with my Sony! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyyyel Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 So from this video something which look really mundane but so important for video camera use, it has a second whole near the tripod mount so tht it does not twist. Small refinment but damn I have been asking for that for ages. You can also power it trhought USB C..... Heahhhhhhhh Af tracking in video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ND64 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 DPR criticism of AF-C is simply rude! I don't call them Canon/Sony fan, and I also don't think Z is perfect out of the box..not at all. but they put a 70-200 designed for DSLR, not even the latest FL one, with adapter, and expected it to work like D5! Seriously? But in video, and with native lens, they couldn't deny that it works fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I am always annoyed camera moving on tripod head or even gimbal, always have to twist it back a real pain in the ass. Secondly another pain is swamping battery, now just buy some cheap USB C battery bank and shoot for a whole day. Now we just need a small battery cage with some lock mechanism for hdmi, and... power cable, for a rugged and fully functional 70mm FF camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JurijTurnsek Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Congrats to Nikon for bringing so much new tech (for their cameras) in the first generation and for publishing the lens roadmap. It is not perfect, but it is very competitive. I wonder what the product cycle will be, since they are now competing with Sony's fast release schedule.

Mark Romero 2 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yikes... $600 for a 50mm f/1.8 !?!?!? That would be like Sony selling a 55 f/1.8 for $900 ? Not to rag on it, but if only it offered 4K 60p... or 10-bit internal... that would (for me) push it over the edge (Hoping that Nikon's new Egg Nog has as much dynamic range as SLOG and isn't as brittle). As a card-carrying Sony Fanboy / Butt Hurt Videographer I can at least rejoice that their might be a slew of barely used a7 III's appearing on ebay soon. ?

Django Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Agreed looks good and keep in mind that is from the pixel-binned FX / full readout DX Z7. The Z6 will have even better IQ with oversampled 4K.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kye Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 4 hours ago, Robert Collins said: The A7iii is rated at 5 stops I believe. The A7riii is rated at 5.5 stops as is the EM1ii (not FF). The Fuji X-H1 is 5 stops too. There arent a lot of FF ibis candidates to choose from. I didn't realise they measured IBIS. You don't happen to know how many stops the GH5 is do you? I read everywhere that the GH5 is so much better, but I'd be interested to know how many stops better it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
