I see that the PAL/NTSC doesn’t change the recording frame rate, so it looks to be only for analog video output. Just out of curiosity, for what do you use 25fps? I’m from PAL region but always liked the faster 30fps (or 60), and for our current displays it’s better fit too.
If you want to tilt down, you can still shoot upside down, I agree that it’s not so convenient but it works 🙂
The front ring is really overly stiff and clicky for my taste. You can however pull focus on touch screen, with up/down buttons or with the rear, smoother dial, so other options are there.
I agree with the slow frame rates for stills (or should I call it non-existing RAW buffer?), I was surprised by that the first time I tried the camera. It seems to be intentionally crippled as the processor has enough power, even the old EOS M can over 4 fps.
I didn’t notice particularly slow autofocus in my usual shooting but in low light it doesn’t work well, that’s true.
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
