For this set up it is good till ISO 1600. 3200 onwards image drastically degrade.

True, but these are jpeg files; will have to see RAW files to confirm the image quality. JPEG files obviously undergo some processing which may not be optimal (too heavy noise reduction etc.)
 

but got to say, this camera looks damn sexy, and imo, one of the better looking mirrorless right now

the Jpegs looks decent enough though
 

Tried something new last night - Spray and pray shooting technique
totally not my style but lets see what the camera can do
 

First time I hear of a Pro DSLR that doesn't come with an external battery charger and need to be charged in-camera via the USB port.

My first time trying spray and pray technique, not every frame is tack sharp, it may be due to my inexperience, will practice more

External battery charger is a separate purchase

So what exactly were you doing? Burst mode? Machine gunning???

I would be grateful to see some stills pulled from 4K video along the lines of this shoot of the models please bro.

Set the AF to Continuous AF and Drive to Continuous High 15fps
so track subject and machine gun them down, will record the sound of the shutter, quite nice.
Will do a 4K video on later date, then will pull out a still from the video
 

Mounted the 30mm f2, nice size for a walk

As subject walk towards camera, will it be easier to predetermine a focus spot and set to manual and shoot about 5 frames as subject walk near the spot?
AF Continous will be better for subject walk across the focal plane. I could be wrong, still toying with dslr.

Thank you for your time and efforts! I'm watching closely...

I would normally prefocus but for this exercise, I experiment with their AF speed and accuracy

For catwalk pace should be ok. But for runners dashing towards the finishing line it will be a big risk to use afc.
Btw chee cheong fun contain too much oil.
