DPReview TV: Sigma 70mm F2.8 DG Macro Art lens review

Anonymous: “Thought you might enjoy seeing this – a short film that I made for the RCMP and Canadian Forces, filming their “Toys for the North” cause with a Panasonic G9, 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 lens, on a PilotFly H2 for creating super smooth video! The G9’s Dual IS outperforms the GH5, so it’s one of the most stable filming platforms out there. Filming the day was like filming a wedding, but with much higher stakes and waaaaaay more intensity… but I had a blast! (4K): https://youtu.be/w67ar2W0M1Y Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Cheers, Chris :)”

Sharp has developed the new 30+ Megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor and the camera might cost around $3,000

Share

Our friends from Personal View had a chat with Sharp at the CES. They managed to squeese out some more info:

  1. 8k30p but they are checking if it’s possible to make it 8k60p. Well that would be nice!
  2. aim is to have a $3,000 price point. This is very good price point particularly if it has 8k60p
  3. Sharp says it has developed the 30è megapixel sensors. Usually this means Sony made it and Sharp might gave them a couple of design tips :)
