  1. This was on the EF camera, but you can use the same M42 mount lens (Helios) and same anamorphic on the MFT camera for the same results.
  2. Hi Dicky. It is a digital PDF download, and the email was sent as soon as you ordered. If you haven't got the email let me know and I will resend it. It goes to your PayPal email address.
  3. It isn't normal behaviour. Looks like a workflow issue. More details of that please!   Also, try a copy of Resolve Lite and see if you have the same artefact with the DNGs in that.
  4. Sensor size Oli. The Nokton is designed to cover a smaller 2x crop area compared to the full frame sensor in the RX1.
  5. John has used the Pocket Cinema Camera on his commercial work but likely can't release the material.   Where Blackmagic are going wrong is they have no Reverie marketing piece, not a lack of test shots.
  6.   Yes please. E-sata and a SSD mag in a battery grip. I mean, this isn't hard or expensive stuff we're talking about here. Just a direct tap on the sensor's raw data in the memory already in the camera, out via a $5 chipset.
  7. 7D on the way!   Will likely get the anti-aliasing filter for it too. Image is so sharp, it just needs that tiny bit of low pass filtering to be flawless yet still very sharp.
  8. Is a tripod that inconvenient for stabilisation? The pocket form factor saves you a ton of weight over the BMCC.   The only time I'm 100% happy shooting handheld with no rig is when there's a very good stabilisation system on the camera or if I can slow the footage down from 60p to 24p - that reduces the jitter.   You could put a Z-finder on the back of the Pocket. Then you have a steadier rig but it's still tiny.
  9. It made Engadget. Well done Florian :)   http://www.engadget.com/2013/08/05/first-canon-7d-raw-video-shown-courtesy-of-magic-lantern/   How much interest is there in 7D raw video coverage on EOSHD? It is quite an old camera now (over 4 years), still a lot of users around?
  10.   There's two ways of looking at it. Would you prefer to see a more marketing orientated eye-candy shoot, or just honest snaps on the street? If you look at the recent Dragon test, that had a hell of a lot of effort put into it and looks incredible but to be honest it was just TOO good. Too good for Vimeo, too good for 1080p, and no frame of reference to compare it to. So I don't mind that John has put these very basically shot real world clips out at all.   The screen grab you posted above is badly compressed, badly graded (too much magenta, steep roll off in the blacks and highlights). It doesn't do it justice. Sorry!
  11. Zzz.   Anyway - Pocket Camera mirror is up. URL is - https://copy.com/a3Ye8xLctRNy
  12. Some people have literally no concept of price. Are they hedge fund managers?!
  13. Download from Dropbox John Brawley has released a few ungraded ProRes files from his card, shot with the Pocket Cinema Camera and SLR Magic 35mm F1.4. [url=http://www.eoshd.com/content/10971/first-prores-files-from-the-blackmagic-pocket-cinema-camera-released]Read the full article here[/url]
  14. If you grade raw, project raw and view it on a big screen alongside the same graded H.264 mush, you won't be having any doubts about what a leap it is in image quality.   It's not fully conveyed from watching compressed streaming video on the internet.   Even the Dragon test footage looks normalised on Vimeo.   Get a camera and shoot something :)
  15. George Clooney is a canny fox. The director and actor has launched a tirade at the hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb, who has taken a 7% stake in Sony and is encouraging the company to spin off a stake of its movie division as a separate company. He says it is becoming more and more difficult to get films like Argo green-lit, echoing the concerns of other top talent in Hollywood.

  16. Just arm yourself with the facts and knowledge, then choose the camera that suits best what you want to do with it.   The C100 is in a totally different price bracket to a DSLR.   I'd rather invest the difference in lenses.   The brickbats are becoming tiresome.
  17. Stick to 2x 64GB cards for now. The new 128GB ones are giving mixed reports and there's rumours of 1200x cards on the horizon.
  18.   Pretty well close to 7D but more expensive and full frame users may as well choose the 5D Mark III.   Check out this chart for full overview on capabilities   http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=6215.0
  19.   You can be creative on a paying job as well, but yeah - the creative filmmaking community for too long has been held hostage by the pro video community and their needs always get taken more seriously, because they make the most money.   EOSHD seeks to associate itself more with the creative producers on a shoe-string budget than with the pro video community and their industry tools.   I suggest both sides stop viewing each other with distain, realise their differences, and stops trying to ram one's own needs down each others throats, C100-luvva man especially.
  20. [media]http://vimeo.com/71649487[/media] Test footage by Florian The Canon 7D is shaping up nicely for raw video, with image quality that makes a pretty grave for H.264.
