It was about time you showed your mug🤣. I completely agree with you on all the features that you're asking for, especially the dual cards, in the past three years I had two card failures, on the X-T2 and the X-T4, I was very happy that the cameras had a backup, but I'm sure the companies would increase the selling price, it's the nature of the beast. A feature that I would like is internal memory, yes, that would also increase the price. Be well and stay safe.
All the best with the changes, Cris. I've seen many channels do a shift from gear reviews into something more comprehensive, I'm sure no matter what you produce it'll be of value. While I agree with all of the features you say are a must (especially the manual mode), I would add IBIS and fill flash to that list. I just wrapped up two full days of shooting at Dubai Expo 2020 and I decided to pick my Nikon D800E with bright 20mm 1.8, 35mm 1.4, and 58mm 1.4 primes, and none of these lenses have VR (vibration reduction as Nikon calls it). Even though I brought my most used body along (Z fc), but I felt that I needed the extra grip and comfort of a DSLR despite the downside of the extra weight (which was honestly not an issue at all). Anyhow, I might have changed my mind if my Z fc had IBIS and built-in flash though, as I was shooting a lot in-door with atmospheric light which made going into higher shutter speeds nonviable unless I was willing to use a higher ISO beyond 3000 which I'd rather not do. Moreover, quite a few of the shots were taken in natural light or were back-lit with strong sunlight which made having that fill flash light a God-sent gift! I had no issues shooting outside at all with my setup; however, I really missed an IBIS feature as I found myself going to 1/50th of a second when I was shooting indoors, and I had to be very careful to stand still sometimes taking 10 or more shots until I get a stable one in addition to the inconvenience of waiting for hoards of people to pass by in front of my subject until I get a chance for that clear shot again which I sometimes did not manage to get! Using the fill flash in such scenarios would have ruined the shot completely by killing the atmospheric environment light and rendering it soulless, so the only option was a lower shutter speed as I did not want to go beyond ISO 1600 which is what I found to be the last acceptable detail-to-noise ratio on my D800E, and for that, two or three stops of VR would have been great to help me get my shots faster.
💯 true sir. It’s a trade of sometimes but I totally agree an built in flash can make a difference. The IBIS will throw the price way up, but the prosumer cameras should have it.👍
@@CrisConstantin that's true, but hopefully sensor shift image stabilization should now be much cheaper for manufacturers to produce than what it used to before.
@@kaminobatto somehow it should, look at Xs10 but a good quality gimbal like IBIS is still expensive to install due to space limitations and the tendency to go small with these new bodies👍
Always good to see you online Chris. I really enjoy your presentations as they are so down-to-earth. Stay safe and well.
Thank you for support sir. 👍

I knew you’ll add to the game 😂. Tru that, internal
memory can be an option. Be safe, sir👍

Chris ,internal memory like smartphone 256GB minimum very fast one , and backup on sdcards , or alternatives nvme ssd not 300-400$ CFexpress 256gb
Yes, Cata. That will be awesome. Leica did it in their M11. Hopefully other will learn from it. 👍.
