Until the camera is shipped out properly and us lot the consumers start to use the camera on a regular basis then a lot of bugs and issues won't come to light. The aforementioned reviewers used the camera for short periods for these reviews and have mentioned problems they've found afterward, but not from their initial reviews of playing with the camera for a few days.
I reckon there's going to be a ton more that occur once the camera is actually in our hands properly, that will mostly be fixed with firmware updates. So no no need to have a go at the reviewers. These guys have supplied plenty of info. They also though are professionals who work on many different projects using many different cameras. Each chosen for that specific task. A lot of them did their reviews straight away. Then didn't touch the camera again for a while as they were working with other machines. They didn't have to do the reviews at all and instead could have spent those days earning money.
Bloom has been both criticising and positive in equal measures, and has picked up on areas he doesn't like the camera, which as he mostly does documentary work he's not finding it suitable, yet he loves the image it produces, not the workflow especially. Laforet hasn't touched upon it that much at all. John Brawley who is a regular commentator on here has been using it in a more production environment and by the looks of things has been having a great time (but his main focus is on the production feature not the camera). Marco showed us in depth what we wanted to know with regards of how it compares to working with DSLR's, which is the area that a lot of us are coming from so we can see the differences and did 2 fantastic review videos that both explained the differences and gave us a better idea of what we can expect (my 2 favourite bits being the lens comparison and depth of field test). Frank Glencairn is doing his clinical stress testing, showing us what we can expect in dynamic range and lowlight, he's using it as well now on some pro work and has matched it up with an optimo lens and I can't wait to see the results (the guy also deserves various medals from countries for doing something we've all wanted to do recently, pouring his drink and popcorn over a lout who with his group wouldn't shut up and were purposefully making noise at the cinema. The guy is now my hero).
All of this they didn't have to do. They did it from their own time. It's the equivalent for me as when you end up doing that bit extra of free work for a client. It never happens as quick as you like and the client half the time doesn't appreciate what you've done and the fact you've used your time to do it and then asks for more free work. It's ended up costing you money but the client treats it like it's some hobby you do just for the love of it.
I for one appreciate greatly every second of time they spend to sharing in this their views and opinions and has helped me out a lot in my views and decisions.
That said, if it was me, as I mentioned, earlier I'd more than willing be a complete sell out for the various companies. You hearing me Grant
