Emanuel reacted to MurtlandPhoto in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
39 now... because it still needs to be said. It's insane to me that people are actually analyzing this footage.

Don't. Own it, I love the look. Watched this earlier today and both the director and the DoP appear to be big fans of using diffusion wherever possible.

Emanuel reacted to DBounce in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Indeed, and also strange so many remain convinced without seeing any footage from the production camera.
For myself I will wait until the real reviews are out. With official footage.
This camera seems interesting... let’s see if it lives up to the hype.

Emanuel reacted to Jim Giberti in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
It is pretty absurd to be analyzing a surreptitiously shot screen grab from a preproduction demo at a trade show.
Making judgements about it?

Emanuel reacted to kye in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
There is definitely some strange colour splotchiness going on, but my question is what the signal path of the image has been to get it from the camera to my monitor. I agree with @Cinegain that it could be from some wayward processing.
The ISO performance on that image is terrible!!! And it's a daylight landscape too!

Can we stop down voting every post that can be remotely interpreted as critical? Everyone knows and agrees this is a revolutionary camera.

True, unless you measure the effects of NR only using a black and white chart. ?♂️

Emanuel reacted to sam in Have you ever watched a 4k bluray?
Its true. Can't wait. It was even on Amazon for a preorder but they pulled it, so not sure when, but its coming. Making a new print from the negative even. What I haven't heard is if it will be projected like the hateful eight, and/or if it will get an 8k scan and d-cinema like Dunkirk.

Emanuel reacted to IronFilm in Now mirrorless is a raging success. Samsung will be back
I take waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more photos and videos with my smartphones than with my dedicated cameras!
And that is me, he who owns about a million DSLRs/mirrorless.

Sad to see that Cinema5D is still spreading their damage even today.
That review in particular along with many others is one reason why I just stopped reading Cinema5D.
Wonder how many sales of the Samsung NX1 that Cinema5D caused damage to?

Emanuel got a reaction from Lux Shots in The M43 Cinema - 3 Way Battle
Canon FD glass is a luxury that is not dispensed with... Once addicted, count on forever, my friend : ) People call it old, yeah...
Once, a hotel owner in Rome told me it is not old! It is antique hehe :-)
Vintage in our terms means gouden standaard :D BTW, I nowadays live half an hour away of Leica standard manufacturing... ; ) Sorry for the contamination LOL

In fact, Don. These major players are tough manufacturers. Their glass never disappoints, at least to me :-)
I fully agree on that one, Jon.
We live great times... My own expectations in 2001 when HDCAM arrived (and put my plans out of film path) have been beaten indeed. I personally heard Tonino Guerra to tell me and a few other people there that those Japanese cameras were the future. Michelangelo Antonioni dreamed with when he shot The Mystery of Oberwald two and a half decades before. Pity he had no chance to be with us nowadays.

I have found an affinity for old Canon FD glass. It's cheap and quite plentiful. I have a 50mm f/1.4, a 28mm f/2.8 and a 35-105mm f/3.5 and I got them all for less than $200! I also have a generic speedbooster which gives me a few more focal lengths to play with, but optically, it's kinda trash, so I don't use it much. I'll probably invest in a proper one soon.

'Not at the moment' is what one of the Blackmagic guys said at NAB.

Emanuel reacted to jase in Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera
Was this handheld? If yes then you are near to rock stable!
-
Emanuel reacted to Matt Kieley in Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera
Yes, it was all handheld. I just had a rod mounted on top with a pistol grip handle on the side, and my Marshall VLCD50 monitor on top, with the Cosmicar 12.5mm 1.9 c-mount lens. It was pretty well-balanced and comfortable to operate, though the rod mostly blocks the record button, so from now on I'll just use the same Krasnogorsk-3 pistol grip + shoulder stock + generic Manfrotto 501 QR clamp that I use with my bmpcc.

Emanuel reacted to mercer in Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera
There are some companies that make them, but they cost almost the same price as the camera. I cannot stress how small the camera actually is... about the size of a rubicks cube, but once it’s kitted out, in the most basic of way, it becomes pretty monstrous.
With that being said, and how Matt has demonstrated, it’s a gorgeous image. If the new Pocket just had all of the specs as the Micro with a screen, it would have been a winner in my opinion.

Emanuel reacted to BTM_Pix in Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera
The LANC controllers don't trigger the autofocus but you can get to it via the SBUS interface.
It needn't cost a massive amount of money and I've got one of these cheap (£7.50) pistol grips to take apart to house something experimental that will work. They can be mounted on the side like that Ursa one with a simple adapter or you could even fit the rosette if you wanted to get fancy.
I haven't got a BMMCC to test it with unfortunately but I'm sure I can get round that when the time comes.

@TheRenaissanceMan I found that comparison test pretty interesting. Didn't you? I also found the tester has arrived to the same opinion your comments point out and I share. Reason why I pushed the 'like' button over your posts and posted that.
@jonpais When I was @ law school before to conclude my learning there, I had dreams, you know? I thought filmmaking was much easier to match my own expectations. Then, I went to film school where I could have the experience of 4-years full training on post-production and directing departments. I also realized at that time the post graduate studies in the field of production could lead to better waters for the kind of work I would like to experiment and became a producer. You can find the links in my signature shot with many different cameras. In one or another I had some influence on the camera decision front, as well, some other gear connected with. Without mention some creative choices to make, non-technology-related. On a few others, none of my business for that specific project.
On the leftover, I don't find a forum like this one may call the best location for that. I am not a reviewer nor tester in any way other than non-scientific tests I perform when other ones have much more work to show. So, I'd rather post the best I can find to illustrate my own finds. As a still photographer I also much appreciate to shoot, oh well, frankly on that one, follows the same rule in the last paragraph, at least in part. I always praise my work as very personal. There's place for everything in life and life out there : ) The right location.

Jump to minute 9:23 and you'll see another much acute comparison... Don't forget to take a look on minute 11:12 as well ; )
Well, sharpness is far to be a standard :-)

Emanuel reacted to BTM_Pix in Motion Cadence
This is Sony's demonstration of their global shutter sensors versus rolling shutter sensors (presumably also Sony ones )
This one is a comparison between two board cameras with global and rolling shutter sensors.
RED's Motion Mount can be quite informing about how this stuff plays with the same camera as it has enables their cameras to have variable ND but also gives them two global shutter modes, which they refer to as Square and Soft.
So in demos like this - which is a repeatable pan under motion control - you are able to see the effect on the same camera between ND only (i.e. rolling) and the two different types of global shutter.
And from the same user, the effect when filming motion from a locked off camera.

How high ISO you went on GH5 there?
