Re: Nikon D4 with new video features
Right, while the press release states "users can stream an uncompressed full HD signal directly out of the camera" I take it they 're using the term very liberally, is 10bit 4:2:2 too much to hope...

Re: 5DtoRGB - wow! This really helps.
Sorry Guy, I'm in Pal land, so a simple 50i to 25p conversion takes place. I haven't had to deal with NTSC frame rates myself.

Re: XF300 Pattern issue with video
Oh Canon Team, you're such a spoil sport, taking all the fun out of spending countless hours pixel peeping test footage in poorly concocted scenes.
However will I while away my evenings now?

5DtoRGB - wow! This really helps.
Very much enjoying using the GH2 but alongside my XF300 (with 4:2:2 codec) one thing you really notice is the colour sampling.

Re: Anyone planning to use EF-S Lenses?
Thanks Alister,
Curiously the 24-70 is the one L series lens I still own (left over from my days with the 5DII), but it's a case in point. I was considering selling it to fund a 17-55 IS.
