it's a test from 2011.. so no breaking news ;-)

I do not mean that it is "breaking news", but it is useful video in topic.

Dynamic range test

Some samples shot on FS-100. Not mine.

@QuickHitRecord

i think it is wrong topic to ask, but as I remember fwtool for NEX is working for FS100 firmware.

New firmware is available for download

Indeed. And as I said AF100 is very good camera.
Unfortunately AF100 company is out of bounds.

I think article is pretty flawed because author is definitely not neutral :-)
AF-100 is wonderful camera.
But some bounds must exist.

At first they said 10 bit output, and then when it was confirmed that it was only 8bit I completely loss interest in it. The HXR-NX5U $ 4000 has 10 bit hdsdi. So in 2 years you will have to buy the FS200 to get it or wait for the FS300 and then they will tell you that they listen to you!!! Look at those hopeless Sony VG10 owner who are hopping for a firmware update to the $ 2000 camera (with lens) released not much more than a year ago. It has it forte, like extremely good low light quality, but I would have preferred a good Iso 1600 with 10 bit uncompressed output, than a good Iso 6400 with crap 8 bit. 8 bit should be banned, people are having 12 bit raw files in the photographic world for less than $ 700.
