    Nope… Check specs – 1/2.7 or 2.9 or something.SLIGHTLY larger than 1/3, but not much.

    Used it last week. Very good for very specific applications. EXT run and gun doc for EG. Nice crisp image, better lens (image wise) that I thought. PRORES 422 recording which helps A LOT in pulling colour out.

    Ergonomics… You have to live with swithchable zoom and focus ring, and fiddly aperture knob. UGH, PD150 stuff.

    1/3 ” chip … but pretty good in my limited experience. DOF forever because of chip size; but for run and gun doc, this is OK.

    Lens … slow, and not wide enough for my purposes even with Century WA adaptor.

    For me… semi-disposable run and gun camera, cheap, great in a situation where I could put it in a backpack and look unobtrusive, and get NEAR pro quality image. A compromise, but in a situation (rough 3d world country, no filming permits) where having a full pro camera would be a BIG problem, It was a good solution.

    But this is a very specific application.
