Is there an RJ Lens Turbo for the E Mount?
Yes, of course.
@Vitaly: I am currently thinking about an A5100/6000 or a PEN EPL-7 (additionally to my bmpcc) and a question arises: Is there an RJ Lens Turbo for the E Mount?
Also the image stabilization of the Olympus seems to be a nice thing for vintage glass...
@Vitaliy: I've used that bitrate because in another forum someone asks for it. I usually export in ProRes422 as Master file and other more compressed files from it with Compressor or Toast Titanium (for Blu-Ray, far better than Compressor...).
on GDrive there's the XAVC-S 50Mb/s export
You do not need such bitrate for such video, especially with dark background.
I'm uploading another file on the same GoogleDrive folder, a simple test done at ISO 640 with Continuous AF and Flexible Spot. On Vimeo there's a compressed version, 24Mb/s, on GDrive there's the XAVC-S 50Mb/s export from FCPX, done with a custom Compressor preset. Huge file, almost 400Mb for 1 minute of video... This is the Vimeo version:
Thank you so much, @trafficarte. I have played with the files a bit on resolve and it is really a huge improvement over what happens when you use the 5N in low light.
Only to add a Vimeo link when you can download the FullHD version.
@arum: I'm trying to share the FCPX original export with GoogleDrive, but my connection is really lazy tonight, when done it'll be here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B-9JLD4xrZn8UTdXQkJLLWFSTmc&usp=sharing
(It's still at 12%...)
The original Xavc-s file is gone, I'm sorry.
[UPDATE]
I've uploaded another file, called "SonyA5100Test B" with a couple of text description files. The touch focus is far than perfect, but really useful and really better than any other I've tried.
@trafficarte thanks for that. Any chance that you can make the original file available through dropbox, google drive, mega or something like that? I would really like to look at it without the additional youtube compression.
I've done a simple test in low light, ISO 4000, to test the touch focus.
(from the description on the tube...)
Video test shot with a Sony A5100 camera using its Xavc-s codec, imported in FCPX with the XAVC/XDCAM Plug-in for Apple V1.2.1 downloaded from the Sony site. This test is about the touch focus potentialities in low light, the clip's ISO is at 4000, four thousand ISO… In camera settings are all way down: -3 -3 -3 No noise reduction, only some tweaks on exposure, saturation, color and sharpeness. A sliding cropping toggles the original with the edited.
Even without considering the Sony A5100 very affordable price, it’s an incredibly well performing camera wrapped into a tiny package. It’s even smaller than a compact Micro Four Thirds camera like the Olympus E-P5. Yet despite the camera’s diminutive size, the A5100 is one of Sony’s best cameras yet thanks to the APS-C sized sensor and autofocus system it has inherited from the Sony A6000.

Has anyone seen original clips recorded at 50Mbs XAVC S for download anywhere? I was wondering if the higher bit rate helps with the pretty horrible quantization fuzz that appears in the shadows with my 5N.
The Sony Alpha A5100 is one of the more compact mirrorless cameras available with built in flash, particularly considering it has a 24megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor, and fast hybrid AF focus. For those looking for one of the smallest mirrorless cameras available with an APS-C sensor, built in flash and Wi-Fi, the Sony Alpha A5100 would make an excellent choice - although to get the best out of the 24.3 megapixel sensor prime lenses are recommended.

Although it looks almost identical to the previous A500 model, the new A5100 is a much more capable camera, especially when it comes to focusing and recording video. It's also a much more compact alternative to its big brother, the A6000, especially as it offers a lot of the same features and even out-performs that model in a few areas.
Camera in stock at Amazon now - check top post for links.
That's humbling !
Looks like C5D updated their article with corrected #'s and the a5100 has a more believable 10.5 stops of DR.
