    You can use your EF-mount lenses. That's what I do on my FS7 with adapters

    The FS5 and FS7 don't have useful autofocus to speak of. In my opinion, the only function of a lens that is downgraded by adapting it is autofocus performance. I'm just as happy with my Canon mount lenses on my E-mount camera as I was with them on my MFT and L mount cameras or on my Canon cameras themselves

      My Canon 7D MKII (with clean HDMI out) stops feeding the HDMI signal after 30 minutes, then you have to push the record button again. Thus, it rules it out for my needs.
      I wonder how is it with Fujifilm XT3?

      I doubt if 2 lenses will cover my needs. I have 7 EF mount lenses…

      I imagine the UMP 4.6K (first version, used) as the UM 4K (regular 4K version) has a maximum usable ISO of 400 and no NDs, so #4 and #13 on your list would be out.

      (ISO 800 is the highest you can set in the camera, but it's not usable due to FPN. 400 is its native and its only.)
      Indeed, it's the UM 4K (regular 4K version), which according to users on BMD forum, has few other drawbacks. Noise-wise, it's barely usable under bright sunlight. Thus, it is out of the contenders list.

      So, with the addition of infamous Sony Menus and the differences in color science, it is out of the contenders list.
