The Rambling Review Of The Panasonic EVA1

This is a long review, not quite my longest though (that was the 3 part Blackmagic Pocket Camera review) and is based upon my week long loan from Panasonic UK of their very impressive AU-EVA1. I cover my thoughts on the image, the slow motion, the infrared and much more!

Aaron Fitzgerald you bored?😳

[@aaronedwardfitzgerald3484]

Philip Bloom haha, just thought it might be helpful. Feel free to copy and paste to description if it suits. Great review!

[@michaelagisilaou9436]

You are a god!

[@TylerAdamsMedia]

hahaha PERCY!

[@hudarod]

Don’t even care that this is almost an hour long, I just love your style and music selection and everything. Watching these videos are soothing.

[@flashmovietrivia8736]

I just picked up the EVA1. Beautiful camera, your review was very helpful. The images sold me. My favourite feature is that the EVA1 records gorgeous slow motion in camera 4k 60p over 24fps is awesome and has a huge variety of recording options including proper 2K. I did fork out for a Zacuto Gratical Eye though which added to my outlay but I think it's worth it.

[@alexcorll90]

Does this mean the return of long form camera reviews from you? :) I miss that level of detail in camera reviews, I'm sure others do too.

[@whoismatt]

Fantastic even though Percy (or any cat for that matter) wasn't in it until the end. I agree with you about a perfect camera taking aspects of every manufacturer together. I would even settle for Panasonic using all their own technology in one camera, such as the amazing IBIS of the GH5 in the EVA1, or Sony adding their electronic ND to an a-series camera for example. :)

[@philipbloom]

cheers Matt! Sorry about the only brief Percy appearance!

[@matteo_oz3557]

its a good camera at the end and as other competitor, anyone have someting wrong in different aspects. The perfect camera doesn't exist, because if ine brand build the perfect camera it can be the perfect camera for everybody because everyone hav different needs.In Other the perfect camera could close the market for the other brands and for it self. I think since now one of the camera thats approccing to """""""perfection""""""""" is sony fs5 :) light camera, great image quality, great versatility, small size, modular ecc ecc, but i must say it.. panasonic with gh5 and EVA blow me away cause of image quality, the cinematic look, its very very fenomenal.

[@EmileModesitt]

So many good things were said in this review; so many things the camera manufacturers need to hear.

[@philipbloom]

yep!

[@biscuitsalive]

At last! A use of the crash zoom transition actually used in context and fitting the narrative. Editors take note.

[@philipbloom]

Thank you!

[@basilmgohar]

That subtle bubble pop at 10:05! Excellent long-form review, PB. Still not available in 4k for me, though. Agree with others - a video review with soul. Some of your clips were just beautiful.

[@brinkley627]

Finally! I’ve been looking forward to this review.

[@bigwinie]

Hey, Philip thanks for spending the time to create one of these camera reviews. Always appreciate these long videos which I'm a sucker for. I know these take forever to create and I'm glad they still happen from time to time.

[@philipbloom]

Sherwin Laranga thank you very much

[@aerospacenews]

Philip: This was clearly a tremendous amount of work and no small expense to produce. I found it really useful and enjoyable. Thank you!

[@philipbloom]

AeroSpaceNews.com thank you!

[@Jawmsie]

Watched this on vimeo earlier. This review was super informative. I'm definitely adding the EVA1 to the list of cameras I want to rent and experiment with.

[@gypsysundance]

Philip Bloom is the only person I think I could listen to ramble on a tech review on a camera for an hour,a very personable conversation the Kevin McCloud of Camera Reviews

[@EHeartFilms]

First of all THANK YOU! Your camera reviews are the first place I go when considering a camera for myself or to recommend to a friend. I can't pretend to know how much time and effort must go in to making these videos but I don't know what I would do without them! Second is this. Would you ever consider a Rambling Review like this of the BM URSA Mini Pro? I've seen the one you did for the URSA Mini and loved it but is there enough of a difference between the 4k/4.6k models and the Pro to warrant a separate Review? Thank you again for the time and effort you invest into my future as a filmmaker and all those like me!

[@philipbloom]

Josh's Films I won’t be doing another ursa review. The 4.6k is close enough. I really just want to do reviews of cameras that interests me. That’s always been the case

[@GuitarCh]

Even though I mostly never will be able to afford or need the equipment you are reviewing, I'm always enjoying to watch your reviews. There are always some great inspiring filmed bits - and let's face it: You are such a fun performer combined with an immense amount of knowhow, it makes for some great entertainment!

[@philipbloom]

guitar.ch thank you!

[@WojtriX]

Love your reviews - they all have a soul ;)

[@philipbloom]

WojtriX thank you!

[@dominiquebrown2890]

Philip Bloom was this filmed in raw or mp4 on the c200?

[@macktaylor426]

Think he touches on that in the C200 review :)

[@dominiquebrown2890]

Mack Taylor thanks I'll check that out.

[@LeoneAmici]

It's amazing how I couldn't care less about the camera but I still watched the whole thing, I love listening to you talk about gear

[@originallygareth]

Percy, the greatest focus puller, missed Burt inspecting the case tho...

[@pangrac1]

I got 3 years late and I still appreciate this review.

[@locheriminnenfutterderchev84]

I love your reviews I love the music I love the editing And I love the information I just love the effort you put into this

[@philipbloom]

x-ray pete thank you!

[@kagoTshabota]

All reviews are not done until yours comes in. Until then, i'm not convinced.

[@aleksandrshik9208]

This reminds me of "Top Gear" from back in the days... it's not just cars... it's more... these reviews are not just cameras! Well done!

[@MikeDavis_NZ]

That final shot is gold.

[@roboverholt9959]

I remember seeing the first infra red landscape photo, Like a hidden world, fell in love with it immediately.. Perhaps a short film of strictly that with the right music, maaaaaan eye and brain candy... Cheers Philip... Rob from Regina, Canada..

[@philipbloom]

Rob Overholt already done that! The Las Vegas one and a couple of others from a couple of years ago. I would like to do more with this camera but I had to give it back!

[@roboverholt9959]

I can't believe i missed that! I just watched it... Awesome.. So craving some drone shots like these, Some place tropical with Jungles, monkey's, mountains and valley's ;)

[@artemorbid]

The low light scenes are super clean and sharp. It is completely stunning to see. Thanks so much for the review. The information is very detailed and precise.

[@RobbyHuang]

50:38 yes. Yes it would be very nice if they all just got together and made one camera haha

[@MrIggybo]

Robby Huang I already have a Name The CaSoPan FSCVA 12005

[@TheBoredEditor]

Finally, the review I've been waiting for :)

[@victorheyden2685]

beautiful review Philip. Thank you for 1 hour of great content! I own the GH5 with a Speedbooster XL for canon EF. I've shot a short film on it and am really happy with it's performance. Especially the stabilizer let's you shoot handheld in situations I never could/would with other cameras.

[@caiuscosma6614]

The most interesting and professional AF test I had ever seen :-)

[@AlejandroLopezFilms]

glad to see this review arrived. Thank you Mr. Bloom.

[@caiuscosma6614]

big like for Percy, and the AF.

[@philipbloom]

Caius Cosma he says thanks!

[@Filmmaker809]

Stunning work Philip on Richmond Hill. I appreciate your honest advice, being a humble GH5 shooter. :)

[@PhilSledge]

It was more like documentary not a review. Great work Philip

[@TheScrubsfanforever]

Nice Review! But i am pretty shure, that the dual native iso does not have two sets of Pixels, but two sets of analog amps behind these pixels.

[@dergearnerd3086]

I really love your camera reviews, even though I can't afford most of them! :D Thank you for this!

[@macktaylor426]

Love your reviews and this new one is no exception. For some reason, the EVA-1 never struck me as an outstanding camera... and you answered that for me when you said that it just doesn't offer anything significant over the FS7, and that's why I didn't think it was too amazing. I do prefer the FS7 at this point.

[@macktaylor426]

Also that DPAF is gloriously speedy!! Very impressive!

[@danieldougan269]

It's not at all greedy to want reliable autofocus AND easy manual focus. It's what we should expect!

[@philipbloom]

Daniel Dougan sure but a perfect camera will always be missing something...they give us that then we will say why isn’t it full frame etc etc 🙂

[@GurmeetSingh-fr8uo]

Is the image quality on Sony A7S III better than Panasonic EVA1? Which has best cinema sensor, better image, rendering and dynamic range?

[@KEVANDJACKFRIGHTS]

Nice review as always. Been following all your work for quite some time now and I have to say, this one came across the most natural. Not a slight on your other reviews, but the frustration and general fedup-ness (word?) really came across. Proper EVF and LCD is what we want as consumers on our video cameras as well as all the bells and whistles,within reason.While it may be below 10 grand, its still alot for most people and companies maybe should listen a wee bit more to the consumers. Question I pose to you Phllip, what do you think the big guns are focusing on too much in their cameras, 4k, higher ISO to see in space etc, and what should they focus on that makes sense moving forward? Great vid sir, I hope this finds you well.

[@sreejithpisharody2216]

my man the music at @9:10 is so refreshing ! Bravo edit !

[@SBBLURAY1]

Damn you, Phillip, you make every camera look desirable. I KNOW this camera is not for me, yet you still make me salivate for it.

[@filmbysimon5687]

Fantastic as always. The final 20secs tho..

[@FIRUFILMS]

Hello the raw signal is 10 bits pr 12 bits ? I mean from the EVA 1

[@asmundma]

Completely agree with you on AF on C200. Therefore I have that one.

[@philipbloom]

Asmund Maeland it is impressive

[@roodick85]

Just realized I've only watched your older reviews and this is the only current one I've seen

[@eclecticguy]

So much to like about this review. I don’t care about the rambling style, I’m just glad to see a review from you on this camera. I’m also really anticipating NAB this year hopefully FS5 m-II has some A9 incorporation in it. Love the unstructured autofocus test and the slomo ending.

[@philipbloom]

eclecticguy thank you!

[@NarekAvetisyan]

I would never consider this over the FS5 with an Inferno recorder. But I always love watching your videos and listening to you Philip. I hope can make more reviews, thoughts on gear and anything else you want to make. And if we can dream our dream camera mine would be a camera with RED's dynamic range, Sony's global shutter, hight speed, sensitivity and electronic ND, Olympus's IBIS, Sigma's Foveon type sensor, Canon's AF and ergonomics, Fujifilms colors and dials, Panasonic's processing, Apple's user interface and finally Blackmagic's price and RAW. Btw have they sent you a GH5S yet? ;) Cheers

[@NomadicNative]

Great IR shots in Las Vegas! I’m in Las Vegas now. Just bought my first cinema camera at B&C Camera a few days ago, a Canon C100m2 to learn on. I wish I had stepped up to a proper video camera long ago!

[@codeylee4970]

Always so informative, appreciate your wisdom Philip

[@Falckodotcom]

Although the EVA1 is a great camera, I'm very happy that I choose the C200. The AF is miles ahead and the build quality is also better it seems. And the EFV on the C200 is pretty good I think, but I come from the C100 mk1 (the EFV of that is rubbish). The 10bit (non RAW) of the EVA1 is nice though and would like that on the C200.

[@GeorgeLoch]

I want that Frankenstein camera!

[@sanderpeterson]

Best reviews on the planet.

[@patrickjenner3211]

This camera down down samples from 5.7K to 4K (Similar to how the C100 would downsample from 4K to 1080P), does that mean the EVA1 gives sharpest or most detailed image for a camera in this price range?

[@philipbloom]

Patrick Jenner I am sure I covered this...in theory. In practice I can’t tell

[@JamesBenet]

Excellent review, so true to the strengths and weaknesses. Forget about the GH5 review, you can kill two birds with one stone with the GH5s, current tests show it beats the a7s II up to ISO 12800 retaining better color. The a7s ii of course wins after at ultra high ISOs but it should be an interesting mash up. No stabilizer sure does cripple it for most of us. Percy is the best AF test for any camera.

[@fellowcitizen]

Please review the Panasonic S1 :) It has 5.5-stops stabilisation, the Lumix lenses have a manual focus clutch, and the Sigma lenses (L mount and MC-21, also first-party to the L Mount Alliance) have mechanical focus+aperture. Not to mention the 5.7mEVF and unlimited 4K30 etc.

[@Tayadventure]

would you recommend getting this even now? would be coming from a gh5

[@rudolphlagarrigue5072]

Very good review Philip as usual, very instructing. Thank you ! As you said eva1 compet with 3 years old camera.... so wait and see futur. If sony could have same dual pixel level quality ...Sony, adapt ibis and A9 AF on Fs7 III !)

[@shootmdm]

A great review from a great Cinematographer.

[@philipbloom]

Mark Mascheri thank you Mark

[@danieldougan269]

Panasonic could have made a Super 35 sensor with a Micro Four Thirds mount just like the JVC GY-LS300. With that camera, you can adapt just about anything to it. But if you use a Micro Four Thirds lens that doesn't fully cover the sensor, you can compensate for it with Variable Scan Mapping. Just punch in. That's the best of both worlds, really.

[@philipbloom]

Daniel Dougan but they didn’t

[@philipbloom]

Daniel Dougan 3 months?

[@nicklaytonUK]

Lovely footage. Camera looks lovely, but I bought the GH5 and am sorted for the next 4 years.

[@dalavitang]

Maybe stabilizing sensors in these cameras are difficult due to all those heat dissipation mechanisms that need to make contact with the sensor but at the same time are really heavy to practically stabilize? I'm just guessing.

[@intelinsideTV]

Too early, gotta wait for that 4K goodness to process.

[@eicarshiva]

many thanks, do more videos. I will go for C200 for it AF.

[@stuart0604]

Even your reviews are of epic quality 👌

[@jiafoto2046]

[@davidunoi7099]

AT LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSST! MY LOOOOOOOVE HAAAAAAS COME ALOOOOONG!...lol. Thanks Philip. Been waiting for this to drop :)

[@KarrGalaxyStudios]

Great review Philip! Its too bad material quality/design of that LCD is so bad. Most will probably use a better larger external monitor anyways. I think EF mount is probably the best universal choice they could have made for super 35. Because of the large 42mm flange distance virtually any lens can adapted to EF mount with cheap adapters. Also Canon glass is some of the best out there as you mentioned and you can even adapt vintage manual glass as well, ive been having great success with older glass as of late!

[@originallygareth]

1440p.... getting there! Thanks Philip great review again.

[@philipbloom]

Jim Gutteridge it should be 4K. Maybe your browser? Safari doesn’t give me 4K but chrome does

[@originallygareth]

Browser is fine usually... watch all your 4k footage just fine... missing the option on this so far... KZbin shenanigans me thinks!

[@originallygareth]

I always use chrome... 75meg connection.. 4k monitor and vid card.. still missing the 4k option

[@originallygareth]

Finally 4k option available, Thanks!

[@koishooter]

It appeared that the C200 killed the EVA in the low light test, even with it's dual ISO. Did I mess something?

[@philipbloom]

Koi Shooter correct

[@garyking4032]

Percy... Percy?... Percy!

[@TerenceKearns]

Panasonic should have made that thing an E-Mount and then produced their OWN adaptor for EF lenses and shipped those with the camera. Then nobody would be able to legitimately complain. I like Blackmagic's approach where you can change out the mounts themselves.

[@philipbloom]

E mount belongs to Sony. They don’t license its mount for other cameras

[@JimMakosCom]

Although not interested in this camera, I watched the full-length review for the pure entertainment! Now bit of an off-topic question: I had a look at Audio Network where you are getting the music clips from and I noticed they cost about $30 a piece (allowing KZbin monetization)! Since you've used more than 10 in this video alone, did you really fork over $300 just for this review's music?!? I've been using Filmstro for a year now and had a look at EpidemicSound, but Audio Network seems to have a larger library, for the music I want at least.

[@SatGillOnline]

Have you checked out AGsoundtrax? It changed the game for me...

[@salvadorvega9834]

Music bed subscription is the way to go

[@StephenSE9]

What a good video. Got me thinking. I blog using a Samsung phone and want to use a camera under £150, can you recommend any or perhaps you can add this to your next q+a. Thanks. 👍

I really want a L mount versión 2024 of this camera

[@w1zdz]

Philip, what camera/lens did you shoot this review on? Looks amazing lol!

[@adamhudson698]

Great review! Speaking of the FS7, what are your thoughts on the lever locking E mount? I've heard some bad things about it in terms of single shooter usability. That's the main reason I'm thinking of picking up the FS7 original, despite being three years old! I would like the variable ND though...

[@philipbloom]

you get used to it. it is not as quick but its very solid

[@Photographicelements]

Great review! Would love to see a GH5 & GH5s review (at some point, take your time..)

[@gunnarsandberg1]

[@jmkariuki5863]

Of the sub $10,000 cameras... C200, EVA-1, FS5, FS7, Ursa Mini Pro (I know you didn't refer to it in this video), which would you grab for long form narrative shooting?

[@UnratedAwesomeness]

JM Kariuki if you buy the Sony,you'll need to spend extra to purchase the other necessities required to shoot raw or a good prores codec above 10bit 422. C200 shoots raw nice but so does the ursa. I'm no expert but I'd say the ursa because your money is going towards good versatile codecs. Prores XQ is so close to raw quality and saves a lot of space, but that's something you need to research. Canon might be better for stunning doc's with that lowlight and AF. But you could make good movies on the fs5 in 10bit 422 at 1080. All up to you

[@JamesJacksonFilmz]

JM Kariuki I have shot with all minus the latest 2 (c200 amd EVA but I own the c100) and I will say this. If you are doing long form narratives and you have the time to set up your shots, the Ursa mini wins this easily for me. The Sony cameras are great (all these cameraa are great actually) but the Ursa mini IQ when exposed properly, is far better than the rest. Of all the sub 10k cameras it's the one I've seen whose IQ resembles the look of film the closest. However if you don't have the time to set up or you do short form narratives, I think the c200 would be the best best option followed by the fs7

[@mclarenf1V12]

Thanks mate! Great video. And just nice to hear your thoughts on where things have settled in the Pro-Sumer world.

[@philipbloom]

mclaren f1 thanks...but what is prosumer here?

[@mclarenf1V12]

Philip Bloom I guess I consider myself a prosumer. A professional that has access to prosumer pricing. Cameras under $10,000. Like the one you show here. It wasn’t a few years ago a smaller guy like me could ever afford 4K or RAW cameras. The game has opened up.

[@philipbloom]

mclaren f1 sure but under $10k doesn’t means prosumer. Very much pro cameras and have been since the F3 and C300

[@AdamPrestNZ]

A mft mount doesn't mean a mft sensor size. JVC made a video camera with an mft mount and a super 35mm lens. I think this is the way Panasonic should have gone.

[@philipbloom]

Adam Prest yeah and it was rubbish

[@AdamPrestNZ]

Philip Bloom I just want that short flange distance that I love on the Panasonic mft cameras, the EF mount seems so unnecessary

[@juiceplanet147]

Appreciate the longer video felt Netflixy docu style. Loved it. Why aren't these companies using XQD cards in these mid expensive cameras? I dont get it!

[@alexshdvideo]

Lots of head scratching watching the video with you. IF we could combine some of my JVC LS300 features into the EVA1 I would like it more. Like the M43 mount with the super 35mm sensor like on the JVC. I can adapt most anything to the camera and even get a speed boster and use full frame lenses on my super 35mm. I'm using Rokinon Cine DS lenses mostly at 1.5T so I haven't really thought about a speed booster, I just bought a wider Rokion 16 and 8. I love shooting slow motion with my JVC since it conforms to 24p for me in camera so I can instantly watch in slow motion. The JVC's version of Log J-Log is mild but I seem to like it though I ignore all the advice on the web. ISO 800 for me is too much. I manually set it at 0db 400 ISO at ND 1/64 or 8 stops and get an average of T4.5 to T5.6 which is also a nice happy spot for my T1.5/1.8 lenses. The C4K 150mbps is fairly robust. Though it is 8 bit 420 and now has the option for 8bit 422.. which I don't see a total benefit, but it's there as an option. Then I scratch my head with the JVC why the SDI is NOT 4K. I believe the live output is 8bit 420 but uncompressed so there is probably an advantage of a Shogun external recorder... Picking exposure for all these cameras I find difficult or impossible with built in histograms.. I've started using an incident light meter again and now I love it.. I was hours away from shipping JVC LS300 back to BH when I tried my hand held meter and camera came alive. JVC LCD and EVF (at least it has one) are fairly terrible, but the focus peaking is fairly good. Though the image in camera is recorded well, the viewfinders being terrible makes me want to close down more.. My bell curve on average lit shot is 1/3 from the left.. .totally opposite of everyone else in the world that say ETTR which I don't believe. Most DSLR people say put the bell curve in the middle. I find 18% grey card and my incident light meter agree on my JVC to be 1/3 from left at 0db and I'm getting good consistant shots. No 10bit anything or anyway to get it out the camera... makes me envy everything out there. On the other hand I got the JVC after Digital Bolex stopped making cameras.. the BlackMagic Ursa Mini under whelmed me so I picked up the JVC as a camcorder with some DSLR and Camcorder guts that frankly was relatively cheap at $2,500 to start shooting something now. (Camera in hand is better than 1/3 of a camera that I still need to save up for later) Yes I would love a camera company to make something that is close to what we want.. Why Nikon doesn't have higher mbps? Why JVC doesn't have 10bit or 4k raw live output? Why Blackmagic Ursa Mini only had the expensive CF cards only? (Ursa Mini Pro has more options and the Ursa Mini has dropped in price.. I might have to think about getting one now) the list goes on. Even the Digital Bolex that I fell in love with when I saw the CCD and especially the later firmware updates just made me breath easier.... no ProRes so you can bang something out quickly and avoid raw if you didn't need to... Oh well. Love your videos... I still think I'll have to pick up a Black Magic Pocket Cinema camera just to remove the IR sensor (easily) and play with IR.. I love infra red as well. probably cheaper to do that than get a used DSLR and convert it. Anyway I do have a question: Do you use a dedicated hand held light meter for your work or rely on the built in systems? I'm guessing you don't use the dedicated light meter much since you often use variable ND filters and unless they are marked and clicked on apertures there would be little way to discern what level of ND your varibable ND is at... Or maybe my JVC's exposure guide is as terrible as the LCD is and it's jut good for pointing and focus peaking. :) Dunno. By comparison shopping for the BEST new truck or car is eaiser than shopping for the best of any type of camera. Cheers :)

Hi Philip. I was just cruising the channel for Panasonic reviews. Any plans to review the GH6?

[@philipbloom]

nope, sorry.

[@LuisJRodriguezR]

@@philipbloom I understand. Thanks for the prompt reply. Your reviews are the best online.

[@mondotv4216]

Philip - excellent review/mini film! What conclusions did you draw on the dual iso? The native 2500 was clean but adding gain didn’t seem to hold up nearly as well as the C200 (or for that matter any of the Sony’s that I’ve used). Hard to tell on YT though...

[@PhilipBloom360]

MondoTV 2500 is noisier than 800 and the iso performance isn’t as good as the C200. It’s probably similar to the FS7/ FS5 but I didn’t do side by sides

[@mondotv4216]

Philip thanks for sharing

[@zguy95135]

The difference between Super 35 and Micro 4/3 is really pretty small, 1.5 vs 2x crop. Take into account the GH5S with it's modified m43 sensor youre looking at 1.5x vs 1.7... Super 35 is not that big and that's been the standard for movies for a hundred years.

[@TheInternetEnzyme]

Is it just me or are the true blacks not actually black, but a milky grey? Like the letterboxing in the video itself does not match the letterboxing applied my ipad.

[@philipbloom]

Andy Beyer-Bowden grey is the new black

[@aaronjonellhall1937]

@22:00 Wait, the C200 does have a built in 10 Stop ND.

[@philipbloom]

yes 10 stops

[@zleepyjan]

COOL Camera!!!!

[@wag1254]

Thanks Philip, I'll buy a Canon C200 and Sigma 35mm

[@clifftotten7609]

Panasonic could have used an MFT mount and KEPT that S35 sensor behind it. JVC LS300 does that exact thing. (MFT mount and Super35 sensor) This would have allowed the EVA-1 to use any Canon and Nikon lens...plus...the option of speed boosters. This was an un-explainable missed opportunity. Panasonic had nothing to lose by doing this like JVC did.

[@philipbloom]

Cliff Totten that system didn’t work well with the Jvc when I tried it though

[@EaglewoodPictures]

How do you conform 60p to 25p (not this camera, but in general)? My Premiere struggles when I interpret the footage as 25p in a 25p timeline. It creates some weird drop or duplicate frames which makes the footage stutter. Same results with 4K60 drone footage and 60p Sony footage. Must be the weird mathematics behind it (59.94/25 = #%^*+). Because of this I have moved back to shooting 50p which is simple math to make it 25p.

Does anyone know the song/composer is for the music at 39:50? This music has been stuck in my head for *years* and i've been trying to find this information out with no success. Also, great review amd plenty to think about as someone who's considering buying an EVA1.

@@philipbloom Thank you! I've heard this piece in a number of films but when I went searching for information on it I could never remember the films. Also, beautiful footage in the Las Vegas video. Very inspiring.
