    • FWIW, PDAF has been in beta on the CC 6K for like a year or more now and reviewers were saying that it was working great.  This release just formalizes it as released. My hope now is that BMD will finally follow through on their statements that PDAF coming to other omdern cameras, including the Ursa LF.  That and 4-channel recording would be a nice update for it. 
    • I'd be interested in testing it.  I currently have a Nubia Z60U which is capable of capturing 4k 60P RAW without any dropped frames using Motioncam. So, yes, this phone is a power horse! 
    • Now this is quite an update... Blackmagic Camera 10.2.2 brings PDAF, continuous autofocus, face and object detection to the Cinema Camera 6K, including adjustable AF transition speed and the ability to pause continuous AF by holding the focus button. But 10-minute pre-record is probably just as interesting (and maybe even more useful in the real world). Up to 10 minutes before you actually press REC... : -) Also added: • 4-channel audio recording • Blackmagic Cloud Streaming • AF mode shortcut assignment • selectable pre-record duration from 5 seconds up to 10 minutes What I find particularly interesting is what this does to the value proposition of the original BMCC 6K. Same hardware, but it is becoming a considerably more capable production camera than the one people originally reviewed. Blackmagic seem to be doing something quite clever here: features developed for PYXIS and their broader production ecosystem are progressively finding their way back into the Cinema Camera 6K. Firmware extending the useful life of hardware rather than giving us another body every year... I can live with that! ; ) EAG :- )   article BMD support page   PS: And I even paid about half thanks to that promotional price mentioned on these same pages... remember? : P   
    • Yeah the FX2 is a great camera. We've come to rely on the A7IV a lot because they are cheap, and just produce a darn good image in almost any situation. Now queue the FX2, basically just a better version of that. I'm probably going to buy a bunch of them here pretty soon for a new studio setup. 
    • In the longer term, I am also watching small LOFIC sensors, because for this kind of digital Normal 8mm camera the real limitation may be highlight latitude rather than resolution. A compact 1/2.8" or 1/3" RAW sensor with better single-exposure highlight handling could be very interesting. Another related experiment would be using spectral filters, possibly with a monochrome sensor, to approximate the response of color negative film layers — so the “film look” would start partly at the capture stage, not only later as a LUT in post.
