No new features :-( C-Log2, Zebra, 4k 30p, More focus assist option in C-log mode would be nice on the next firmware update Canon

While Sony and Panasonic strive to keep their customers happy with regular and useful updates to their video products, it's become an unfortunate joke for owners of the 1Dc who (having spent a fortune on this camera) have waited years for a firmware update that improves video functionality. No peaking, waveform, zebras or even a histogram that works with video. Numerous blog posts have requested these features for years now.. canon seems to be out of touch with their customers.

I spoke to several Canon Reps at NAB and ask would there be firmaware for the canon 1DC with added features like peaking, zebra, C-log2, focus assist in clog. They did not say no but a got a strong feeling this was not going to happen. I guess just wat for the replacement for the 1DC to come out. I sold my 1DC in December purchased a Sony FS5 and Sony A7S II
