not quite. The regular button also enables AF (or so) while the red button just starts to record video and consequently does not affect any other setting/adjustment.
Of course. I was only refereing on the video settings when talked about redundancy between the 2 buttons.
I thought this point (AF only enabled on shutter one) would have been obvious for most of us without the need to mention it but you are right to stress it anyway because this camera electronics is indeed very complex.
I'm discovering a new feature almost everyday. It's good and not so much at the same time.
For ex, if you shoot a serie of stills during video recording, it's good to know that not to affect the recording it has to be setted in 2k. Nothing strange there. But then, when you want to review the stills in camera, all you have are movies. I thought I was doing something wrong until I placed the card in computer and yes, the stills are really there but you can't review them if you took them while filming. No problem with that but just bewildering.
If MR applauded the paper instructions handbook, wich is nice indeed, the content is often laconic and not really made in such a way that you exploit very
easily the complexity of the camera. It's a true box of surprises.
In terms of IQ, it's an antique Canon 16MP 1D. Exactly the same! Can't see any difference, wich is impressive indeed and shows the technology way that has been walked in a few years. So it's like having the still pro quality available years ago with an advanced video capabilities within a reduced size and with probably the most universal lens adaptability ever found.
If this tech is going that way at that speed, I wonder about the MF manufacturers future to be honest.
Cheers.
