I'll check back in 2 hours. But isn't it the drone?
A full frame would be nice.. Pentax did it this year, why not them
The GH5 has been announced (out early next year) and it delivers pretty much everything people have asked for. Good bye competition.10-bit 4:2:2 and 4k 60p among the highlights.
10-bit 4:2:2 internally is a BIG BIG thing. Hopefully it's not just HD...

I personally like the MFT format and see the GH5 being a mega seller. They could develop a full frame system but lots of those out there already. I'd rather see the MFT line fully developed than adding yet another FF to the mix.

I have always been a full frame user and cannot think one instant about going smaller.. And I would love to go bigger to medium formats..

I have always been a full frame user and cannot think one instant about going smaller.. And I would love to go bigger to medium formats..I like using different sized sensors. The smaller lenses with MFT mean I can walk around all day with 3 prime lenses in a small camera bag. I seem to be using it more often than my full frame camera. The difference in quality isn't a problem, anyone that can't use a MFT camera for stock doesn't know what they're doing.
What is so great about 10-bit 4:2:2? Can someone offer an explanation or a link? I love th micro 3/4 system but still use it mostly for photography.

I love th micro 3/4 system but still use it mostly for photography.To be brief and easy, it keeps more information after compression so the footage (especially color) resists better during post-prod color correction. It is great for videographer/filmmaker but I don't think it is very important for stock especially micro-stock as many people don't color correct their footage or just lightly.
It's just as great for stock as the buyer is just as likely to want to color correct if the sold clip isn't. The difference in what you can do with 10-bit is quite big.
