The fourth episode in our season of live recordings from the Regent Street Cinema is about another film that explores the relationship between biography and philosophy: Derek Jarman’s Wittgenstein (1993), which tells the story of an extraordinary life in a way that is both light and profound. David talks to writer and philosopher Nikhil Krishnan about Ludwig Wittengenstein’s ideas of war, science, truth, freedom, sexuality, language, loyalty and communism and how they are portrayed on screen. Does the life explain the ideas or do the ideas explain the life?

Leio no site da revista The New Yorker que já não é possível explicar o bolsonarismo (ou qualquer outra aberração lógica) pela teoria da dissonância cognitiva, conceito-chave da psicologia social dos anos 1950 e que desde então tem servido para explicar quase tudo o que parece incompreensível no comportamento humano.

Este episódio do 451 MHz traz a reprise de um raro registro do grande pensador quilombola Antônio Bispo dos Santos, o Nego Bispo, morto em 2023. Numa conversa com a pesquisadora e colunista da Quatro Cinco Um Bianca Tavolari ocorrida n'A Feira do Livro de 2023, ele discute ideias presentes em seu A Terra Dá, A Terra Quer (Ubu e Piseagrama), livro que introduz o conceito de contracolonialismo. Bispo também fala sobre a cosmologia quilombola e a urgência de repensarmos a forma como nos relacionamos com a natureza e os outros seres.

Today’s episode in our season of live recordings from the Regent Street Cinema looks at the biopic of a revolutionary: Margaretha von Trotta’s Rosa Luxemburg (1986), which explores the deeply unstable relationship between the personal and the political. David talks to writer and philosopher Lea Ypi (Free, Indignity) about where biography ends and philosophy begins and whether revolutionary politics requires the leading of a revolutionary life. What was Rosa Luxemburg’s true cause? Who or what betrayed her and her ideas? And how does her legacy live on?

Out now on PPF+: a bonus episode to accompany this series in which David and film historian Harrison Whitaker discuss the greatest Christmas film of ideas: Frank Capra’s It’s A Wonderful Life, which is much more than just a seasonal tearjerker.

As another year draws to a close here are EOSHD’s official observations on the camera market for 2025, new vs used.

And which cameras for both stills and cinema stood out for value for money in 2025?

It’s making more and more sense to buy a used camera, and leave the new stuff on the shop shelf.

That said, 2025 has seen some exciting new releases. Canon have got their specs-act together with the EOS R6 Mark III, and Nikon has finally brought RED tech into the mirrorless camera world. How did Sony, Panasonic, Fuji and the rest fare? Read on to find out…

New vs used 2025 (overall winners)

New camera best buys for video

• Canon EOS R6 Mark III (new $2900) – 7K RAW and a feature set which builds and improves on the old EOS R5 flagship, little not to like but RF mount lens range is more limited than others
• Sony a7 V (new $2900) – 7K sensor readout, good quality oversampled 4K at up to 60fps, 4K/120p mode is 1.5x crop, much less rolling shutter than the predecessor cameras. Price is a little on high-side – sadly don’t expect used prices to come down for a while
• Nikon Zr (new $2200) – REDCode / N-RAW for cheap with a wide ranging video spec sheet, it’s the little camera that can
• Panasonic S1 II or S1R II (new $3200) – the S1 II is best in low light, the S1R II offers 8K open gate with a resolution advantage – excellent image quality but L-mount might put some off

New camera market image quality chart 2025

1. Canon EOS R6 Mark III (7K, overall best internal RAW camera)
2. Sony a1 II (best 8K image)
3. Panasonic S1R II (best value for money full frame 8K camera)
4. Panasonic S1 II (best low light camera)
5. Nikon Zr (REDcode and same sensor as Z6 III)
6. Nikon Z6 Mark III
7. Panasonic S1 IIe (best value open gate camera)
8. Sony a7v (capable, but slower sensor and worse rolling shutter)
9. Sony FX2 (excellent image, but no better than cheaper a7 IV or a7c II)
10. Leica SL3-S (value for money isn’t quite there)

Second hand used best-buys

• Fujifilm GFX 100 (used $2000+) – People really don’t understand this camera. There’s no need to splash out on Fuji medium format glass – put Minolta MD lenses on there and shoot the IMAX look in 4K 10bit. It’s also one of the best built and best designed cameras of all time – head and shoulders above the smaller GFX 100S ergonomically
• Sony a1 (used $3200) – The more the price of the 2021 flagship drops on the used market the more incredible it is. Here we are 5 years later and the image, performance and overall spec lacks for virtually nothing.
• Canon EOS R5 (used $1900) – Best spec mirrorless camera on paper, under $2k – 8K RAW for how much?! Also consider – EOS R5C for 8K/60p, active cooling and longer recording times, minus IBIS
• Panasonic S1H (used $1200) – Highly capable if you shoot Cinema 24fps – one of the only cameras with an anti-aliasing filter, one of the best 6K images you can get – the current used rate is a steal, and the ergonomics brilliant although heavy
• Nikon Z8 (used $2800) – The best overall paper-spec for the money, there’s really very little it can’t do, if you’re a Z-mount user this is the one to get
• Fuji X-H2 (used $1300) – The only camera remotely close to $1000 with 8K ProRes, and file-size shrinking variant ProRes LT is very welcome too, spectacular image quality
• Sony a7 IV (used $1300) – Sony’s 2021 “basic model” offers FX2 level image quality for cheap, with great AF and wide ranging feature set for hybrid users

Bargains:

• Panasonic S9 (used $900) – it’s practically an S1H, in a tiny small form factor, mega cheap – although some will miss the EVF and mechanical shutter of the S5 II, the image is excellent and real-time LUTs allow for some incredible colour science / colour processing in-camera
• Sony a9 (used $1200) – the cheapest stacked sensor full frame camera with excellent rec.709 4K (NO S-LOG!)
• Sony a7 III (used $900) – the best all-round full frame camera under $1k for most people
• Nikon Z6 (used $700) – the best value for money 4K full frame camera for 24/30p without a crop

Used camera tiers (pre-2025)

S tier

• Fujifilm GFX 100 ($2300) – 44x33mm sensor with no crop in 4K, excellent codec, colour science and image processing, stills quality beats all others
• Panasonic S1H ($1100) – best value for money Netflix approved open gate full frame camera and excellent in low light
• Fujifilm X-H2 ($1200) – best value for money 8K ProRes camera (APS-C)
• Sigma Fp-L ($1300) – an excellent left-field choice for cinematic visuals, thanks to full frame 60mp sensor, pixel binned 4K at full frame but oversampling at 1.3x crop, uncompressed Cinema DNG 4K, superior sensor to original Fp
• Canon EOS R5 ($2000) – excellent value for money, the video quality has not been significantly bettered by any of the 2025 cameras or EOS R5 II
• Nikon Z8 ($2500) – wants for nothing
• Sony FX3 ($3500) – used prices still high, a7s III with same sensor is a cheaper alternative
• Sony a7 IV ($1200) – if speed isn’t a priority (i.e 4K/60/120) and you don’t mind higher rolling shutter than the newer cameras, the overall video quality and image quality is excellent and the price is a bargain

A tier

• Fujifilm X-T5 ($1100) – excellent codec and 6K, but more limited vs X-H2
• Olympus OM-1 ($900) – superb stabilisation, good 4K/60p and lovely handling
• Nikon Z6 ($700) – still one of the best all-round 8bit 4K/24p full frame cameras after 7 years
• Sony a7 III ($800) – image still holds up
• Fujifilm X-T4 ($800) – excellent value, with very good low light 26mp sensor and superior video feature-set vs more expensive X-Pro3
• Panasonic GH5S ($600) – the best Micro Four Thirds camera for low light shooting

B tier

• Fujifilm X-T3 ($600) – still great 4K/60p 10bit but aging, X-T4 has IBIS
• Panasonic GH5 ($500) – still a great image and feature-set, however lacks open gate / phase-detect AF and RealTime LUTs
• Olympus E-M1X ($600) – a real dark horse, similar sensor to GH5, however has phase-detect AF, great 4K OM-LOG and outstandling stabilisation. A real bargain
• Fuji X-H1 ($500) – outstanding value for money 4K camera with LOG and Fuji’s highly rated film simulations

C tier

• Samsung NX1 ($500) – image still stands up but only 8bit and lacking modern features like LOG, LUTs and IBIS
• 5D Mark III with Magic Lantern 3.5K RAW Video ($400) – with the hack, the Cinema DNG raw image is incredibly good, but it’s a very old DSLR
• Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera OG ($400) – one of the best 1080p cameras and cheap
