ZR

Seriously: Who cares about raw? It’s a format that makes sense if you shooting with a bigger production. But a fx5 / Nikon ZR / Blackmagic is not a camera I would choose for a more serious production anyway This small cameras are for small crew, run and gun, and I don’t want to think about the file

I would never swap a Pyxis 6K for a Nikon ZR. That form factor and those files sizes are just a no go apart from using it as a B Cam. The file sizes truly are gigantic and atm no way to select a higher compression. I moved from a Pyxis 6K to a Red Komodo X. Main reason for me was the global shutter,

Having internal RAW is nice but the filesizes are definitely not. ZR had some issues as well with the image quality of smaller files
