  • I’m curious than optimistic, their GH line has features like anamorphic mode that’s not available on the EVA1.

  • @retrospective

    I won't be very optimistic on your place. :-)

  • Seems like the consumer division of Panasonic can push its boundaries compared to their professional division which seems to be pretty conservative since it has a line up to protect up wards.

  • Sounds like exactly the opposite of what I was hoping for (mini bulletproof S1, organic sensor, 8K monster). Hopefully this is a prelude to that. I imagine the 8K organic sensor is on this thing though. My other hope if it is a bigger body, is that they did something modular with a light weight core unit.

  • Slightly bigger than the S1-S1R for better heat dissipation

    Still no info :-) So some slow obvious data.

    I can rephrase - no info available except announcement and that it is FF:-) Panasonic highly guarded camera info this time.

  • More rumours:

    I now got an updated info about Panasonic’s May 31 announcement. A highly reliable source told me this:

    It’s L-mount New Full Frame sensors And so much more… Cinematography dream gear. A second source told me: It’s built like a tank.
  • @pureaxis

    Of course, and it is consumer division that is in charge of it.

  • Well if it is lumix then it is not a varicam

  • Price rumored to be at $3699-$4299 range for body only. And with possible $999 6K raw license.

    But reliability of this info is not big.

  • @kurth

    I am waiting you "." key to break or in case of smartphone - this area of touchscreen to die. :-)

  • @Vitaliy ....waiting for a digital a minima...might never happen. There's a distinct difference in shooting film, when the camera doesn't block the pov. Add on viewfinders are bulky. I'd like an integrated sidefinder ...like the good ole dayz !

  • uh oh...BMPCC 4K killer with CAF, 5 axis IBIS? :)

  • Oh, someone please tell me there is a possibility that it's not a new camera but just specs of the paid firmware update for the S1 (that I bought just a month ago)

  • @kurth

    Situation with viewfinders change rapidly with new 1080p OLED panels and sub 1k viewfinders that use them.

    We will see even cheaper $500 ones if Trump won't ruin the stuff.

  • probably made more handycam crap . When will they get it that filmmakers had it right the first time....viewfinder on the side where you can watch the action with the left eye and the camera with the right, regardless what specs it has.
