Well, I guess it's too late to get the ILS- sold out everywhere it seems! Who saw that coming? Some interesting comparisons with WAY bigger and more expensive cameras are out there now. Obviously YouTube footage. I wish he'd don it in 4k 24fps or 8k 24fps. To my eye, the GoPro is heavily dependent on lens. The Sony looks super digital to me, but maybe it's the fact it's at 60fps. Is it possible that the GoPro takes off some of that ultra digital look but leaves the detail? Maybe it's simply a sensor size thing? -
Yeah I’m hoping the FP-L isn’t far behind and we can get some of these great features on the “budget Q3”. -
Yeah the OG2K is pretty good. It's clean with a nice texture that was lacking in the original firmware... Quick shot after the sun set. Minolta MD 35mm 1.8... -
Yeah I was thinking of something like the Micro Studio G2 which I’m not sure has been a massive hit and they could be sat on a lot of stock where a cine driven firmware could kick start a comeback for it. Similarly, a highly configurable custom firmware for its actual intended use of a mini broadcast camera where a broadcaster could make it perform their exact needs would make it more appealing for them. And for suckers like me who have one for both purposes it would be a boon to have switchable firmware to make it more usable in the cine use. With regard to their bread and butter of broadcast, BM do a ton of “digital glue” type of stuff for conversion etc so I could see potential for a black box with HDMI I/O, SDI I/O, Ethernet, USB-C and Bluetooth and allow custom firmware to be used for it’s processor to do the exact type of conversion that you need at different times without having separate discrete boxes. So for example sometimes I want to do some SDI to HDMI, sometimes the other way round, sometimes I want to play media from USB to NDI etc etc but never at the same time. The obvious question would be why would BM only want me to buy one box when I’d have to buy multiple discrete boxes off them to do these tasks ? Obviously they’d prefer that but if I have to buy multiple discrete boxes my budget would dictate that I would have to buy cheaper generic products or secondhand versions of the BM ones - neither of which will generate new revenue for BM. That is very much what is driving the FM-1 take up and, as with that, people would be likely to eventually buy a multiple of the BM black box. Having stripped down open source hardware might well become a necessity to sell any quantity of products at affordable prices in the near future as RAM and storage prices continue their upward trajectory. None of it will happen of course but fanciful speculation a vital foundation block of this forum when things are quiet 😂 -
I spent my recent vacation shooting the OG2K and S16 modes without an external drive and its amazing. This hack is a real game changer for a long time fp user like me. Gyrodata, lossless compression, 1 to 1 pixel readout at FHD and Open Gate. Really all I ever wished for... Finally I can run & gun all my manual lenses and don't have to rely on the stabilised 28-200. My fp was already up on ebay because i switched to the fp L but luckily nobody bought it. I was ready to switch to the fp L for the gorgeous photos and clean FHD but now the fp has the latter aswell plus that mind blowing Gyro magic. If someone enables Gyrodata on the fp L I might reconsider but for now I'm just happily running both (lowercase) fp's. No need to go all caps FP for quite some time.
