@Ironfilm,

Thanks for the info.

"Still can't find bitrate for 4K UHD."

Half hour clip is roughly 8 * 4 gigs, so you can calculate the bitrate from that :)

Shooting with the Nikon D500, when ambient light conditions called for ISO 12800 and above, the AF of the D500 crushed it, even with moving, low contrast subjects in dim lighting (AKA live music photography).

Not only does this camera have an astounding native range – ISO 100 to 51200 — but the quality in this range is just tremendous. What Nikon has done is basically made a DX sensor that shoots in the dark like a full-frame sensor. That’s how good the high ISO image quality is.

@konjow Nikon is not known for their video cameras, why would you expect pro features all of a sudden on their Dx line? The A7sII doesnt even have 10 bit HDMI out, does it? Its a pro feature. You just arent going to see it anytime in the next couple years probably on most consumer cameras. GH4 is the only one I know of off the top of my head that has it, and I feel that is more of a video oriented camera than a still camera anyway.

While I agree 10 bit out would be awesome, 10 bit is sort of a pro feature, so I wouldnt really expect it to be on a camera like this. Also yes, the processing for this might just be too much for it at this time. The 422 is great though, very good to have and makes a big difference in sharpness. Id honestly rather have 422 8 bit than 420 10 bit, for FHD anway. 420 4k is still FHD color info, so 10 bit would be nice there.

"d500 Hd out 4.2.2 8bit only according to BH specs"

A non-starter for me, and I use a D7100 for stills. Sad. Why Nikon? Why?
