EOSHD.com – Filmmaking Gear and Camera Reviews

It’s like Canon 5D Mark II vs Panasonic GH1 all over again!

EOSHD is a filmmaking camera blog but there are rare moments the earth seems to shift and something comes along which has nothing to do with what I usually cover, that nevertheless has profound implications for all of us.

I’ve known about MPB since they started following EOSHD on Twitter, all the way back in 2011.

As another year draws to a close here are EOSHD’s official observations on the camera market for 2025, new vs used.

If you’re wondering why the camera industry churns out so many homogeneous black cameras with the same specs and price, look no further than the reception the different ones get in the camera dweeb community.

Olympus never gave us a digital full frame camera.

Aren’t you sick and tired of nerds?

When Sora 2 was released (invite only), results were impressive.

With the Sony a7s IV nowhere to be seen, and a Sony FX2 with disappointing specs and an old sensor, Sony’s failure to go fully-in on video features have left users in the lurch.

Having hoovered up the entire internet including even EOSHD (which it cites as a source for many camera related queries), ChatGPT has built a business based on the theft of copyrighted information, especially for Sora which is the company’s very capable v…

From a British perspective I can only look at America right now in total despair.

The Canon EOS R6 Mark III is the first mid-range Canon EOS R camera that’s a true contender for top-specs in the $2800 price region.

With really filmic results, the filmmaker Lav Diaz decided to use the most compact Super 16mm rig out-there – the Panasonic GH7.

ARRI which still builds cameras in Germany is to close two factories as the ongoing retraction in filmmaking continues to bite.

The Panasonic GH7 I believe to be the final model, but the second hand value of some Micro Four Thirds cameras has been on the increase.

I will always remember what a Leica manager in Germany said to me, which went like this: “I have read your publication today, and I have to admit that the tone is from my point of view unreasonable.

Fuji in many ways have taken over from Panasonic as the most highly rated niche creative force in the camera industry.

Nikon are a strange company, and you could say that Japan is a strange country.

What do you get when you take the viewfinder hump of a mirrorless camera?

Canon will release a “Sony FX30” killer on September 9th.

This is like the higher-spec Lumix S9 with EVF and mechanical shutter I wanted Panasonic to make.

A Fujifilm JPEG-only half-frame toy for 850 smackers, the latest Sony flagship for 7000 something + tax, and the new mid-range “standard model” S1 II from Panasonic yours for a bargain $4000 with ‘basic’ kit zoom.

Nikon is expected to bring RED technology, including the famous REDCODE RAW recording format to a camera resembling the Sony FX3.

Are Panasonic open to some honest feedback?

Now we get to set up our quantum computer to work out which codec is active in which crop mode.

Dear assembled tech progressives, it’s been a pleasure to attend the rally here in Berlin.

Client journalism, you see it at the White House.
