Perhaps Jon, if the Canon's were not already available with 1080/25p, but they are - all 4 of them.

There would have to be a pretty compelling reason to use this camera for video in a Pal Country...

I had a pair of XHs which I eventually sold after hiring Sony Z7s for a mulitcam shoot (the Sony's were superior in low light and had vastly superior LCDs, which alone made them worth the upgrade for...

Great review, I concur with everything you've said, except perhaps the ergonomics which I rather like, but then I come from a Canon (not Panasonic) background. Like you, I also find it's possible to...

I was an early adopter of the 5DII in a Pal country and - for the work I do - it was a major headache. True, if you know web is the *only* output it's not a big deal, but for almost all the work I...

Floris the video in that link is awesome... skew and aliasing isn't obvious (though though I wasn't looking clinically).

The question is, what is the bit-rate, and is there any chance the HDMI...

You're absolutely right, it's best to stick to one family. On reflection I realise it is for stills (for which I use the 5D more often than video) that the Zeiss imprint is really starting to grow...

HI Dylan, I had a similar set of Nikkors (my range was 20mm through 135mm) until recently.

I see missing from your list are the 50 1.8 and 55 2.8 - two of my favourites. I had two copies of the...

Thanks Doug, I appreciate what you're saying and how it can have implications when sharing; in my case this probably isn't something that applies, but it will obviously create headaches for others.

Then again... mounting on the hotshoe may make it more difficult to use the custom buttons on the handle, so you gain a bit and lose a bit.

Jeff why not buy a shock mount that fits into the hot-shot (unless you need a light there as well?). One of the cool features on the XF is being able to switch the LCD to the right side - with a mic...

Right, but it's 1xCMOS vs 3xCMOS... I'd be really interested to know what impact on IQ this will have.

Also, the VF is around 1/4 the resolution, the LCD is smaller and lower res. But it looks...

Prores is a more robust format, so I would use that for jobs that require lots of colour correction, but for day to day work it's great not having to transcode, and super fast. After using log &...

One of the things I like about the XF is it's very easy to dial incremental shutter speeds... once I get to 6db gain, I prefer to use 1/40th, 1/33 or even 1/25 before cranking up gain any further -...

Pulled the trigger!

Rather going against the fashion (and knowing Canon will announce a 5DII/XF crossover camera tomorrow just to spite me) I ordered an XF300 today.

I suspect Canon won't sell many units (nothing...

Good comparison.

As a 7D/5DII owner with a fleet of quality glass, I gotta say I'm tempted to pull the trigger on an EX (or more likely Canon XF) camera very soon rather than extending my DSLR...

On a res chart, yes, the TM700 will score better in terms of detail. The 5d/7d do not perform well if measured in raw numbers (they're not much better than SD). But that's where I think Tans may be...

It really depends on what you are using the cameras for, but the difference between the 7D and TM700 (I had both before selling the Panny and buying a second DSLR) is not about "sharper" picture.
