What drives me insane with these reviewers are their commercials for Square Space. I want to throw a shoe through my monitor. Enough already with Square Space!
 

only 4 more K to go ... guess you are safe for a while 🤣

When he showed that first clip in 4K, then pulled out to 6K, then 8K and then 12K ... I was like "OK Grant, thats plenty now"

I read you comment and most probably you are right, but RED's cameras have an incredible codec that use so less physical space that is hard to believe anyone will migrate from RED to Blackmagic, also soon we will have the new 6K RED, with autofocus, in a small package, and for less money, I think Blackmagic will not be able to catch that market.

if @BTM_Pix could announce his ToF AF addon announce in similar time frame that would be the killer combo

MEDIA ALERT!

A small Aussie bird told me:
Blackmagic Pocket 6K Pro with full frame sensor may be announced https://www.eoshd.com/news/rumour-blackmagic-pocket-6k-pro-with-full-frame-sensor-may-be-announced/
Take this as a rumour. 8/10 sure about the source. 👍

They'll be releasing the Pocket16K before I finally get that fucker out.

Wanted to see what a 2K delivery looked like. Just dropped on my custom lut for the R. I'm seeing a lot of information, beautiful rolloff

I think YouTube camera review videos shot on unusual cameras would be good.
Like an R5 review shot on a thermal imaging camera for example.

Jared Polin is a blowhard. He basically shouts at you on a variety of topics. His videos are way over edited to the point of annoyance.

By comparison, Northrup much more credible.  

So now its Blackmagics turn to add some camera news, along with Sony and Canon.
Its just like buses, these camera related announcements.  Wait ages and then 3 turn up at once.

Announcing the new BlackMagic P8K - FF - 8k30 6k60 4k120 RAW- 15 stops of DR - $3000 with Resolve.
I'm probably way off, but that's the trajectory they're on!

Why are they using Potato Jet's old studio?

Did download the 4k 120fps 10bit files and played around and is not oversampled detailed but for 120fps is really really good, I did not expect this. 
Btw BM just released Resolve 16.2.4 with perf optimization for 1Dx and R5 RAW. 

And shot on a 50mm Contax Planar lens! That hearsay too! 😛

Some great looking footage here. Not going to lie, this looks just as good as my Canon C200 videos. Colors looks amazing, dynamic range looks better than I thought it would, and its all shot handheld:
 
 

Long time member, infrequent communicator here.
I got into it a bit with Mr. Reid the other day for the first time. After discussing it with him privately, I found that he and I were much more similar in our views than I first thought. He and I both just had bad days...on the same day. So that got me thinking...I spend time here, it has been a resource for me in the past (whether educational or casual reading/browsing). I think it's easy to take a site like this for granted. We tend to just assume there's a team or that it is all automated. It's not, it's one guy and it takes time from his day and other things.
So, I wanted to do an AMA and get to know him a bit more. I will start it off. Please post questions in bold + italic and tag "@Andrew Reid".
@Andrew Reid What art form interests you the most outside of film? Also...what is your favorite CURRENT local restaurant (no chains)?
PS...I know Andrew is too humble to make this sticky or pin it. But I think it should be. If it is sticky or pinned it's because I'm requesting it. 
I think it would be good for the health of the site for people to have a better sense of who is behind it. It would add a personality that would make things more civil and you would probably notice that you don't get stressed as much. 🙂 

Should be easy for someone to make a non tape based solution then to plug the hole.
Although....
Maybe someone enterprising could incorporate an exhaust fan into that slot for the R5 users 😉
 

Yeah that review is completely false! I just tested again with no filter on the adapter and AF is working fine.

it doesn't disable AF when there is no filter in, i use it a few times with open hole when it is too dark.. but later found dust on the senor ugh.  current budget solution is have tape with me to seal it lol.

Crazy indeed. Look closely at 0:51. The AF cannot distinguish an eye from a butthole.

 
 

Noooooooooooooo..... I don't want him talking about it, that will push the price up on them!! :-o 　 Want to pick up a 2nd F3 myself one day  😉
