Are we happy with the Zenmuse X7?

prores raw with x7 sounds great! shame its not available with the x5s

No worries...

i have been using the x5s for over a year now and while I much prefer the prores recording option both for image quality and easy of editing, however the distortion when using the 12mm Olympus lens is annoying.

I read somewhere that its a problem of the cinecore processing power. I have attached two images, one using the 12mm and one the 45mm.

I was curious if the x7 was also having this problem, although I suspect its the cinecore.

I was informed on another forum that the DNG did not suffer from this.
