    tony wilson reacted to HurtinMinorKey in Most significant clue so far about Blackmagic Cinema Camera performance   
    Another Black Magic test that proves only one thing: They need to give the camera to someone else who knows what they are doing. I liked the pool footage better. This was shot with terrible lighting and bad camerawork. What's up with the huge sways durring the tracking shots?

    It's got a small sensor(relative to most of the competition) so i'm not surprised about the low light perfromance, but I want to know what this thing can do when lit properly.

    I think maybe Kirk. He is more the physical type, Picard and Riker have more sense of dignity.

    I wonder if the noise in the shadows would be less if it was shot using RAW instead ProRes?[/quote]

    ProRes doesn't cause noise. The noise is clearly caused by the camera. We have to watch this further. The images are great. Best demo so far. There are a lot of shots with almost the DR of the Zacuto test, and looking natural. Very impressed.

    EDIT: In two years, we will have become familiar with the better tonal range and the better colors. We will detect shots of the BMCC by the iso noise. All current DSLR stuff will be aesthetically unendurable for us ambitious twerps. Reminds me of a song by Aimee Mann: It's not going to stop 'til you wise up.

    the other lens next to the moller is
    a super rare tiny italian anamorphic from the 1960s.

    the silver thing is my prototype redstan hypergonar using original 1970s benoist berthiot optics.not quite iscorama but pretty goodi have 50 loose battered opticswill get maybe 15 or 20 complete lens from it.this is just a quick housing so i can test which optics need polishing and cutting and which are scrap.these will be a bit like the baby hypergonar only variable focus much sharper and usable at f2.8.the cool thing is you can break up focus into zones so you should be able to do good strong dynamic focus pulls.this is very early days but it is already better than optex and century.some of the optics had really lovely coatings but have had to remove because of faults in the glass.some are also radioactive which the lens polisher refuses to touch : )

    here is the hypergonar prototype done in black.
    nice and small.
    it ain't an iscorama but it should be ffing cool E O

    if this thing is rugged and survives a little crew abuse.

    i hate the design but the guts are looking good.
    take the crap off the front put a M/43 mount on it and you have a real killer


    mr jannard's gonna have to buy these suckers and shut the company down before they start moving up the sensor sizes scale. at that point steam will start pumping out of big jims face.

    tony wilson got a reaction from au8ust in Are Ebay Anamorphic lens prices Inflated?   
    no...
    to make a lens as good as a kowa 8z today would cost over 2000 dollars
    some of these lens are a bargain
    the question should be why is ebay so full of tired old overpriced soft anamorphic lens
    the iscorama new in the early 1990s in london cost £1500.isco could not make or sell that lens today for less than 4000-5000 euros.
    people pay top whack on ebay sometimes cos they do not want to wait and hunt for a bargain
    a soon as you get your anamorphic lens it needs to be tested quick and sent back if you are not able to get a sharp picture.
    so much anamorphotic junk around so little time before the the next big war.
