Lol  Anyway there might be update coming to fix r5c battery life, apparently it still does the super sampling while not recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall correctly that Gordon got it working on internal battery 8k 50p (not 60) with AF and IS but it was a pre release camera. This could even be lens dependent as I can imagine that you need less power for a 35 1.8 IS than for a 400 2.8 IS lens or could be that the final firmware simply does not allow it anymore as it may not be reliable. It's a pretty simple thing for a camera to monitor the current draw and then enable / disable things based on that info, but Canon typically favours reliability (in their cinema camera lineup!) over features, so they might have disabled it to be cautious. Human psychology views losing something as a much more traumatic event than not getting it in the first place.  A common sales tactic is to hand the product to the person because then if they don't buy it they have to hand it back.  From this perspective it would be a nicer experience for users to not expect a feature and not get it than to think they're getting it and then not get it, so if it did IS for some lenses and not others, the person who plugged in an IS lens and it worked would then curse every time they plugged in any other lens and it didn't work.

cookietub Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Thanks! Have you shot any raw 8K 50/60P? I would like to know how it handles in post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanuel Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Yeah, 8K 50p / 60p looks like a new standard to come for acquisition:  source  Do we really need IBIS? ; ) ntblowz and nathlas 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 The big difference I see from 4k to 8k is it studders a lot on my internet connection. 😄 projectwoofer, ntblowz, tbonne and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 8K is still significantly below what the eye can resolve, especially when you are panning across the image frame with the screen pressed against your eyeball. ntblowz and Emanuel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na haven't shoot 8k, but did try 5.9k50p raw lt and even m1 max with 32gpu/64gb ram is slideshow on latest premiere, the cpu is running 100% too. On fcx and da vinci it is smooth though, but fcx don't have wb/iso adjustment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookietub Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Would it be possible for you to upload some of the original 6K 50P raw clips? I would love to be able to try them out in Davinci on PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct : ) The lack of a simple word ("with") put the meaning of my post upside down. There are human limits for good old 2D content though :- ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, at some point delivery bit rate formats become an issue at higher resolutions. I've seen 100Mbps 4K 180VR that looks very good, and at the same time 6K 180 VR at 30Mbps that looks like crap. FPS is a big deal too. I'm going to a lot of testing between 120fps 4K and 8K 60fps. There aren't many 120fps VR videos out there, and I think it could look really sweet (with a sufficient bit rate), especially in scenes with a lot of action. I can't wait for my R5C, until then my Canon 5.2mm fisheye VR lens is a glorified paper weight. I think I was one of the first pre-orders, so hopefully any day now. Juank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PannySVHS Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 hell of a battery run time. 🙂 @Emanuel  Heck of an akward looking highlight roll off. Motion looks awesome though and there is a thickness to the image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I will admit it has a super clean look to it and the color science looks nice. 8k is super clean, but that is sort of the problem, can you make it filmic, cinematic?? It doesn't have a Cine mojo to it that I see. I guess 8k is going to be hard to have that ability. Perfect for Doc work and VR stuff, I am sure. To be honest other than the 8k it looks a lot like a Panasonic S1 output wise. Don't get me wrong if I could afford one, I would probably buy one as I am not going for a Netflix look or making a blockbuster movie. But I would like a bit of OG BMPCC look to it at times.
