The video does look very good. But I was sure it would long ago. ;-) About the rumor, where is this info coming from?

Interesting... Do you know what this "CR podcast" is?

[yellow]

Could be the fxguide.com RC podcast from this week, its mentioned in passing, they query framerates, thats about it other than brief discussion on raw DNG, confusion over that and Cineform.

I'm testing the Ikonoskop tomorrow

Right on. You're having a lot of fun with these different cameras. By the way, check if any moire on some bikinis. My wife will hate me for that one. Cheers.

This footage looks great. I don't know much about this camera aside from the fact that it has a 35mm sensor opposed to BMC's M43(ish) sensor. From this short, i almost like its image better than the BMC's... I emailed Kinefinity about it. I'm hoping it won't be Kinemag Proprietary, and you can use third party ssd's like the bmc. It's also only 2k, and cost $3000 more than the Bmc.

Germy1979,
There's talk of a smaller size version of the Kineraw S35 - same sensor, but more compact. It supposedly will have no fan. It will cost around $4000? The Chinese are clever and are very capable to develop. I wouldn't doubt a prototype is working. It seems they are listening to what people want. In the past there was talk of 4k too. Interesting times.

Alexa like? This video looks way worse than what we have seen previously. Was it supposed to be that flat?

[FilmMan]

Footage isn't color graded. Look at the overall look. Organic and has a filmic appearance. Highlight rolloff not a dslr look.

It says on Vimeo that it was lightly graded.

Bikinis in November in Berlin? Erm I will try my best We're going to do more studio based tests with proper actors. I'm bored of scenery.

Hi Andrew. Please can you do me a favor and test it with a century style anamorphic on a 16/25mm taking lens? I'd be interested to see how this adaptor works on a 16mm sensor..

[Bioskop.Inc]

Love the image this camera produces (the intercut slow-mo footage really makes it shine that little bit more) & of course, it costs more.

Really interested to see what Andrew makes of the Ikonoskop.

Digital Bolex will be very interesting once they've finished tinkering.

[galenb]

Comments on Vimeo indicate the slow motion was shot on a FS700. I find that very interesting since I didn't notice any shift in image quality between the shots.

Some of the shots do look kind of flat yes. I have a prediction: Now that we are getting cameras with all this dynamic range shot in flat profiles, I bet we will be seeing a lot more flat looking footage. I think there will be a tendency to avoid crushing and burning so much because people will want to show all that latitude that people will leave it more flat then anything else. In some ways I see this as a good thing. Frankly, I'm totally sick to death of the current "Film" look with the over bearing crushed blacks and desaturated orange and blue cast. I'm sure this more subtle grading will eventually even out though and turn into something interesting. We'll have to see what happens though.

Shooting flat in harsh sunlight is one thing, doing it on a cloudy day, i dunno.
