The BRaw update on the pocket 4k has some really interesting OLPF-like softening of false detail and over sharpening. I personally love it.

Magic Bullet Looks also has a variety of diffusion filter emulations that are really good. I’ve done comparisons against my Tiffen Black Pro Mist and they’re very close.

I think the reason most DP choose to use diffusion on the glass is bc they want to lock-in a “look”. They’re most likely handing off the footage to an editor and then a colorist.

If you’re handling post yourself it might be worth wild to tweak diffusion looks in the coloring stage.

I used the EOS R for 4 days and loved everything about it except no 4k FF. I think I might have bought it if that feature existed on this camera. Here’s a couple of stills i shot w/ it.

Hell yeah!

You can easily get away with a 3:1 ratio on narrative if you’re prepared, and rehearse. 

90 min x 3 = 270 min (3TB of 4k Raw). 

A 4tb external drive is $99. Get one extra for backing up.

Best cheap 5”: Bestview S5

Best overall: SmallHD 503

I use RGrain. It’s better than FilmConverts IMO.

Just had a chance to use this camera. Dear GOD why no 4k full frame?? I actually love everything else about it as a hybrid. I wasn’t expecting to like it. Canon always pulls that one little caveat feature that keeps me from buying in.

Yeah im skipping kinefinity as well. Blackmagic will probably release a full frame camera at some point too, which will beat this price no doubt, and will have much better support. (I just hope they will have a upgrade platform from the ursa mini pro to full frame, just fingers crossed that they thought about this when developing the ursa mini pro, like RED did)

Oh you know it’s coming ?

I’ve never seen footage from the Hero 7 before. It looks pretty damn good.

Looks really good, love the vintage feel.

Out of curiosity, why did you choose to shoot with the Pocket 4K and Gemini instead of just one camera ? More coverage?

I used the Ronin S for quite a few shots w/ the pocket 4K. I also planned on using it for a car mount but ended up using the Gemini with that.

Here is the trailer:

WOW looks amazing! What speedbooster/adapter are you using?

I believe it was the Ultra.

I cannot tell you how much I'm looking forward to seeing this. I absolutely love a 80s film look. What lenses did you use ?

It’s actually a music video for the Plain White T’s. I used the Pocket 4k and RED Gemini. Lenses were Canon FD primes, and Sigma 18-35.

Great Lighting and Grading. Looks kinda 70s maybe early 80s to me. Or it could be a scene from Zodiac. Definitely a filmic image, looking forward to the video!

Thanks. It’s an 80s era video so I made a custom look just for this.

I’ll be able to post this video tomorrow but heres a grab from my phone. BMPCC4k w/ Sigma 18-35 + Digital Diffusion FX1.

@wyrlyn check out Feelworld 4.5”. It’s like $130.

The BMPCC4k is an evolution of the original cinema camera, and original pocket - combined into one camera. 

I think BM is going higher end with a large format version of the UMP.

Here a compressed DNG from the pocket 4K that I shot last night. 3200 ISO w/ the Canon 24-105.

Aka white balancing?

The official Canon batteries are the way to go. They're the only ones that will show an accurate percentage and last longer than 45 minutes.

You’re right. Just checked out your link and that’s way more advanced.

Yeah the PD is more for single operator controls on either a gimbal or shoulder/easy rig. It’s super small but really strong. The Tilta looks to be more of a pro option and expandable. 

I cant wait to try the DJI mini focus for the Ronin S.

I have the PD and really like it. I’ve never used the Nucleus however. Has anyone used both that could give a comparison?

EDIT: i have the cabled PD not the wireless.
