What modes will Rocksteady and Dewarp modes work on? Will Rocksteady work with 4k 60p? Also can you use Dewarp and Rocksteady features simultaneoulsy? Will Dewarp also work shooting stills in RAW?

The biggest downfall with the GoPro was that you can't shoot linear (aka dewarp) mode in 4K.

Yup to everything.

RockSteady works in all 16:9 modes at all frame rates except the slow-mo ones (120/240fps aka 8x/4x).  And, Dewarp works in that same round-up, including 4K/60. Of course, the downside there being that the lens angle is much narrower than GoPro, something more easily seen when you compare viewing angles against a closer object (like a building or wall).

For photos it's all the same. Dewarp is toggle-able even with raw photos (or the JPG+RAW option).  Fwiw, I dive into a bunch of this in my full review here: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2019 ... n-depth-review.html

And for footage comparisons I show the slight differences between Dewarp on vs off, as well as Dewarp vs a Gopro below (three's a big table of contents at the start of the video, or in the YouTube description, with direct links to each section)

Thanks! The crop doesn't bother. I just want to be able to shoot non fisheye in 4k with an action cam.

Very good indeed, Thanks a lot.

Hi, thanks for explaining.
Just so I understand, if you select 1080p / 120fps it’s not possible to use rocksteady ?  (I don’t mean x4 from the slow motion menu)
