Personally hoping for a refreshed Panasonic S1 or S1R. Have enjoyed the Panasonic ecosystem, but really can't wait until I get one with good autofocus.

Hi Dan, great predictions, hoping for LUMIX S1 Mark II ...
One question: How do you get your camera so plane to the background? Do you mind sharing some tipps and tricks on studio setup, so that angles all align? Thanks soooo much.

[scottaverette]

That damn S1H Mark II better come out this year 😤

[sagardaniphotos]

I want Sony A7 V with uncropped 4K 60fps in this year 2024... That will be the best hybrid game changer.

[VenomIIID]

I would love to see a Panasonic S1R II with phase detection and the long waited telephoto lens ( maybe 100-500mm)

[MohammadEhsanYousaf]

Dan Sir i am still waiting for nikon z6iii. but i really want more features on video side better af + real time eye tracking focus system like sony and canon. At least 4k 120 ff.

[kevenspargo]

As long as the FX3 line omits the EVF, I’ll hope for the A7S IV. I had to use an FX3 a few months ago, and the lack of EVF drove me nuts.

[FamilyofTech]

Waiting for that A9iii review. My biggest concern for A9iii is the base ISO at 2000 when using SLOG which is what I would use when shooting video and photo image quality at iso 10, 000 or 12800 (which is what most cameras get to even with F2.8 prime lenses when shooting high school field sports at night or inside school gymnasiums.

[jaybuckets]

S1H 1 is my fav all time . Please hurry with the 2

[RemyOrtiz]

More reviews!

Z 35mm f/1.2S that’s rumored should also be coming out this year.

Z7 III is the biggest unknown. Will it go the way of the A7R V and be the super high resolution beast? Will it be a mechanical shutter, cheaper Z8? I just hope they do a twin announcement for this next generation.

[dieseldavey]

Thanks for the video. Regards the Z8 the store I use in the UK has 8 used in stock I'm not sure what that points too.

[vincebaldwin]

I can’t wait for the new cams to come out. Then I can get the older version.

[ALLTHINGSLOSANGELES]

I want to see and hear more about compact cameras like the dji pocket 3

[lonceysphotosandfilms]

Cheers so much 😊❤

Waiting for a M43rds Pocket version ❤

[noctivagance_imagery]

Sony doesn't do hybrid anymore. They divide photo and video and I don't see that changing. That's why I ditched sony. A7iv was molasses for video and I'm not paying $6500 for hybrid.

[jonhuij]

I also doubt that sony will bring prores raw to their a7siv/ or FX3m2/fx4. Maybe cuz of their high-end cinema cameras like the venice and burano that has X-OCN. Because Burano and Venice has 8.6k sensors maybe FX9m2 will be the first FX that get compressed X-OCN on a 6k sensor to close the gap? any thoughts?

[gbwalther]

Hi Dan! Great review of specific cameras with plus & minus elements. Amazing as to your broad usage & experience with them. My personal with for early 2024: Sony a7000 with the same sensor as the FX30--at least. No overheating, unlimited time, internal time code like the FX30. 😎😎

[Nypher]

Yes you say it. I went with the Z9 cause the videospecs on paper was just mind blowing. And i still use my Z9 after 2 years and no other camera was this good in video like my Z9. So i sell every canon camera i had and now i am full in the nikon ecosystem. The Nikon Zf btw is just an amazing camera too.

[RichardoBrit]

What a refreshing unbiased review! So many are so biased to one brand or another, but you called it out perfectly. The Z8 is incredible - but gets nearly zero support from YouTubers or influencers - Nikon needs to step up their game in this regard. Sony keeps launching new cameras at inflated prices, while leaving the old camera at the old price (or slightly discounted), while Canon is being more aggressive (R6 II as an example).

[StonedSay]

At this point we a need a serous shrinkage of those lenses. This is getting really awkward to walk around with those things.
