    I think the issue with it is it being a pain in the ass to use. I had one for a short time before just biting the bullet getting the pocket 4k for $200 more. The ef mount on it was pretty awesome coming from a Cannon shooter and I liked the internal SSDs. The internal battery was pretty bad ( got it used and maybe lasted 10 minutes) the fan was so loud and the weight was a lot even without a rig.
    It can be a great value camera, you just kinda have to deal with a lot of those things.

    It was quite amazing and in some ways still is, but it was missing dynamic range in a big way. So even if you were not using slow mo it did tend to clip in the highlights even in faces and otherwice all over the place. Other than that it was quite amazing! The detail was amazing. So yeah it does not beat the FX6 or even any mirrorless full frame camera of this era. Most apc/super-35 also beats it handily. At the time though it was quite something for a while.

For my open gate is more important than bit debth and resolution. And crop factor its odd 1.7 so its not true S35 more closer to M4/3 sensor.
