Quickly shot with Voigtlander 17.5mm, Vlogl, Aperture 300d and natural Daylight. Graded from scratch, filmconvert for grain:

B&H has them for $1,797.99 as well after a $200 instant rebate. I took the ad over to Best Buy two days ago and they price matched it for me. Excited to finally start playing with this thing!

@tcarretti

Glad for you. Make sure to post some initial impression and footage here.

Shot on the GH5 with 12-60mm and 8-18mm. 8-18 is really good with the wide shots, but it's hard to beat the 12-60 for all around. This was all handheld and 50p, except for talking bits.

New codec option can come at Photokina time with new firmware. It is muted talks now, testing of alpha version can start in August.

Hope it will be ProRes !

hopefully not. ProRes will fill your cards with the blink of an eye.

What ever it is, it should be more efficient and not stuttering like the current all-I in most NLEs

It can be even special paid option for enabling ProRes RAW.

Management can see it as nice way to improve they year bonuses :-)

@Vk, if they do that, I will buy the GH5s and cancel my BMPocket4k preorder.

@peaceonearth? What stuttering? Are you sure its not the refresh rate of your monitor?

Just got word from an Atomos rep that the Ninja V is supposed to be available right around the same time - so would make sense that they might enable ProRes Raw over HDMI as Jeremy from Atomos said the Ninja V could potentially record ProRes Raw if a camera offers support for it.
