Is that Delft Vistascope lens any good? I've seen it around but am not too familiar with it. I'm just wondering how it would mount on a lens. Also vignetting issues.

I agree with everything you pointed out. Found myself in the same boat when shooting with it. Canon needs to step it up!

I hope Keanu told the people he was interviewing "I know kung fu" when they didn't cooperate.

Lightcraft Workshop makes some great variable ND filters. Not too expensive and they use a larger front polarizing filter to reduce vignetting.

Didn't see anything as far as a new M43 camera with cine production in mind. Kind of a bummer.

This is rad. Nice!

Hey guys,

After finally having the time to shoot and edit something with my GH3, here's the finished project! Shot this for my friend's band.

Looks great! Digging the editing as well.

Rent each and test em out.

Very happy with my GH3 but I've been thinking the same things. Time for them to take a huge chunk out of Canon's market. I'll be at NAB so I'll be on the lookout for you!

Hopefully that working model really will be at NAB. I'll be there and I wanna try it out!

Found this out as well. Don't know they didn't just implement this as default from the start in video mode.

You guys are everywhere! I've seen posts on 43rumors as well as NoFilmSchool about your lenses. Awesome!

Go for audio first. Your lenses cover a good range so you should be fine with that for what you're shooting. Audio can make or break anything so that should be your first priority. 

I don't think those fast lenses would even work wide open due to the nature of that anamorphic. From what I've read it doesn't allow you to shoot wide open. You have to be stopped down to 4 for the lens to look sharp. And you would need something longer than 50 anyways to get rid of the vignette since it's a 2x lens.

That black finish is amazing. Probably looking into one of those bad boys.

I agree with Julian. Price?!

In the Motion tab of each clip just adjust the frame according to your 3:1:1 aspect ratio using either 3360x1080 or 1920x617. You should get Andrew's anamorphic book. Very helpful.

Just did a shoot with the D5200 last night and I was very impressed. Used it along side my GH3. Footage cuts nicely together so far and if I didn't know which camera was which, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Very close.

Hmm, seems like I have to run the files through Compressor and compress them to ProRes that way rather than 5DtoRGB, THEN the files work in Cinema Tools. I don't like that.

It's also 1080p, if that makes a difference from 720p.

Hey guys,

So I'm running into a problem when trying to conform my 60p, 50Mbps footage, to 24p in Cinema Tools 4.5.1. Might be because of my version of the software, but has anyone else run into this issue? I have a shoot coming up and I really don't want to use AVCHD. Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

 

 

Also, Cinema Tools keeps saying that my files have temporal compression. Not sure what that is. I ran the .mov files through 5DtoRGB first before importing into Cinema Tools. 

This is incredible. Love the look of the Minolta lenses as well. Been looking into getting a few of those and this may have swayed me! Amazing VFX work as well. Mad props.

These look great! Wondering when I'd be able to get my hands on them.

Good stuff! Your thoroughness of the BMCC is something I really appreciate since I haven't had the chance to shoot with one yet. 

Rokinon has a 14mm T 3.1 Cine Lens in Nikon mount. The Nikon equivalent is $1,500 so....haha.
