Thoughts on the fx5? Are you guys gonna get one?
It’s all quality of life improvements at the end of the day. I would assume all of us here are trying to tell a good story. You can tell an amazing story with a camera that came out five or even 10 years ago. The FX5’s image doesn’t automatically tell a better story. The RAW recording doesn’t automa

Ready for FX5?
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

Upgrade?
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,

Switched From Canon To Nikon, I think I made the right choice.
"....looking on upgrading to the Nikon Z6ii or Z5ii next year." The Z6II will not feel like much of an upgrade. When you do get around to upgrading, don't bother with anything other than an EXPEED 7 body - they are an order of magnitude better in the AF department. Currently that means a Z50II, Z5II

Impact of rumoured Canon R6iii for us Lumix Users
Still no slow motion open gate and still no third party lenses—plus no LUMIX stabilization. Internal false color and LUMIX Lab/Real Time LUT are also very very important features for me. Canon has definitely piqued my interest, but they’re still a few years behind LUMIX. Same with Nikon ZR.

Should Nikon make a Z series rangefinder?
You mean a rangefinder styled camera? Fujis aren’t rangefinders. Actual good quality rangefinders are very difficult and expensive to manufacture. I don’t think Nikon has it in them. They don’t even have any rangefinder lenses… A ZR with an EVF would be kind neat but it would essentially be the Zf w

Why the Pocket 4K needs a V2
For what it’s worth I’m a full time videographer (not cinematographer) working closely with brands such as Amazon, Uber, Honda, Tourism Australia etc. My daily is the pocket 4K, original, with the ultra speed booster for a full frame circle and I have to say the new Nikon ZR, canon R5II etc are clos

FX5 Thoughts?!?
Meanwhile Nikon ZR users constantly complain about the file sizes of RAW. With the cost of data storage today, I'd much rather have compressed RAW then a full day shoot requiring 7tb's of hard drive space.

What card do you use?
I’m curious why Nikon puts two different type of card slots on their bodies (with some exceptions). First, it's the other way around: different slots are the exception. Nikon has made 15 matched slot cameras, and 12 with different slots. It just so happens that they've done it a lot more lately than

ZR sounds no brainer but…
Uh, if those two features are going to keep you from buying the Zr, why are you here arguing? It's not like you're going to get Nikon to halt all Zr production and re-jigger it to suit your needs. If you think the FX3 is what you need, you should buy it.
