OK, so as it seems Panasonic have not intension of a AF100 replacement (and I probably could not afford it anyway) I am thinking of going to the C100 or GY-LS300CHE. Wondering if there are any AF100/101 owners who can help me to decide. Money is an issue. I will probably get a used C100 and there are not really any used GY-LS300CHE around. I would really love 4k but can live without it.
If I got for the c100 I am wondering what would be good lenses to replace the Lumix 12-35 2.8 and the 14-140 kit lenses. What equivalents for a ld I be able to sell the Panny ones and get Canon equivalents for a similar price.
Picture quality is another issue but I do mainly do corporate and documentary. Is the GY-LS300CHE image as good as the C100.
Lastly focusing, love the idea of push focus, used it all the time on the VX1000, but wondering how good the peaking and auto focus is on the GY-LS300CHE. Autofocus is not essential but VERY useful in run-n-gun doc work and. I had a Z1 and did sometimes use it.
Asking here as I am perpendicularly looking for negative things for the two possibilities compared to the AF101, which I love but the image is not quite up to scratch for some of the clients I have.
Lastly I also have a GH3, which produces great images. If the images from the GY-LS300CHE are at least as good as the GH3 I would be happy, I am fairly sure the C100 produces images at least as good as the Gh3 (although if you want to push the grade imagine it would be better).
I am hoping I can sell my AF101 kit and lenses and get a comparable setup (probably used) by adding around £2000.
was hoping to wait a little but worried that Bexit are going to push up prices so want to make a decision in the next few weeks.
Thanks for reading this far;).
