  1. Any ideas what makes 6d much better in low light than 5dmk3? Can't be pixel count only obviously. @gravitatemediagroup have you compared 6d to 5dmk3 yourself in low light?
  2. yeah, sorry, not better in every aspect but gravitatemediagroup said low light is better than c300?? This would be huge if true but hard to belive.
  3. someone pls confirm 6d better than 5dmk3 cause this seems to be very strange.
  4.   and it all comes down to budget/economics. Do I want to save 4 grand and spend x days playing with hackintosh? If money earned in x days is far less than 4k then maybe yeah. If I earn far more than 4k in x days then fuck it. etc. etc.
  5.   Windows will never beat unix in stability/performance. Apple hasn't designed this system. Apple is using PC hardware. Apple is just brilliant marketing nowadays. Just to make things clear. btw. They're going down. Steve Jobs won't help them anymore. Keep an eye on APPL stock price for a proof. They  won't reach new highs anymore. Probability of this is close to 0% imho.

  7.   It's his personal opinion ;). His opinions don't have much in common with unbiased approach. He's great cameraman/filmmaker etc., though.
  8.    Definitely single poll is telling the whole story. Reality check.
  9. I checked amazon/ebay few stores. Can't buy black magic camera anywhere. Hardly 2012 camera - LMAO. Pretty good "stretching the truth" techniques though. ppl will buy it but next time I'd suggest checking what kind of products get "product of the year" label.
  10. what about this one? [url="http://www.ebay.com/sch/tekksavvy/m.html?_nkw=312&_sacat=0&_odkw=&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3911.c0.m270.l1313"]http://www.ebay.com/sch/tekksavvy/m.html?_nkw=312&_sacat=0&_odkw=&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3911.c0.m270.l1313[/url]   [url="http://cheesycam.com/312-bi-color-changing-led-light-price-drop/"]http://cheesycam.com/312-bi-color-changing-led-light-price-drop/[/url]
  11. There is no SOLID zoom lenses at your price point unfortunately.
  12.       [url="http://www.reduser.net/forum/archive/index.php/t-77102.html"]http://www.reduser.net/forum/archive/index.php/t-77102.html[/url] - here is a little bit of discussion about it. For best choice you need to know what's happening behind the scenes. On average though,  most are probably better off buying GF cards. As for mobile and desktop version: according to this: [url="http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680mx/specifications"]http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680mx/specifications[/url] and [url="http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680/specifications"]http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680/specifications[/url] looks like 680mx is underclocked version of the desktop card by about 25%...Obviously it doesn't mean you'll notice 25% increase in performance between the two.
  13.   Well, ok, but the rendering speed is still increased significantly. So it's worth it for performance increase. It's just when u exceed available RAM - performance decreases.   hmmm looks like only advantage of quadro is their RAM amount and that's what NVIDIA is limiting on gamers cards. GTX 590 has 3GB. It should easily beat quadro 5000 with 2GB of video RAM IMHO. Quadro 6000 has 6GB so it'll be clear winner once someone needs more than 3GB of video ram. Before it's probably a loser. For anyone interested. You should be checking how much vram you need for your work.
  14.   I wish =), looks like as of now I'm just doing it for nothing. Not the most EV+ approach for me, lol. Oh, I'm not trying to convince ppl. Just saying what I think, seriously. PPL can do WHATEVER they want. Including buying Apple's overpriced PC hardware ;).
  15.   This requires a bit of researching because I haven't been following workstation market for quite a bit (only laptops). If I have spare time or more ppl would like to see this - I'll look around. There are trade offs (6core vs 4core, SLI more memory older card vs faster card less memory etc).
  16.   That's a brilliant idea! Apple, I'm proud of you one more time! Make a Mac Book PRO which is worse (specs wise) and more expensive (I'm assuming) than iMac which is also laptop (hardware wise) and could be a laptop but instead is not a laptop (poratbility/oficially) which is still more expensive and slower than the most expensive PC-laptop. Genius. Not to mention PCs which are gonna kill iMac like BMCC is killing Canon in video department (yeah, yeah, I know they don't look as COOOOOOOL as iMACs and it's 2012 FOR GODS SAKE, everything should be 0.00001micron thick!!!!! ;))
  17.   Yeah, that's what's pretty obvious as I've stated before. Similarly 4GB video ram makes large difference over 3GB ram and so on (assuming you need more than 3GB of video ram). In his case it's weird because 590 gtx has more RAM than quadro 2000 which I checked and has 1GB.   Also probably better to get 2 cards for SLI to get twice the amount of RAM.
  18.   That's pretty weird. One option is your work needs extreme amounts of RAM. One advantage of quadro vs Geforce is their RAM amount. Can't see how gfx can be slower than quadro in other cases. Rendering depends on CUDA cores and CORE frequency. GFX beats quadro in it by quite a bit. I've done very quick research so here is one of the first links to a CS6 AE benchmark I found: [url="http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/2/1019643"]http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/2/1019643[/url] cliffs: gf 680 gtx beats quadro 6000   discusscion about quadro vs gf (didn't have time to read it all though, but I'm assuming gfx is better. I would be shocked if not): [url="http://forums.adobe.com/message/4809602"]http://forums.adobe.com/message/4809602[/url]
  19.   Oh my my, 1 more person potentially getting unblinded ;). If u weren't impacted by my talk, nobody on this forum would. There is a hope.
  20. ad. 1. a) Your assumption might be correct so my assumption is: as we push past 1080p (notice it's a pretty vague statement so we'd need to be more precise...ialthough, it's fine for now) we'll have motherboards supporting LGA1366 (6core intel cpus) WITH thunderbolt. b )  Imac you've listed has got 4 cores. Can you even put 6 core cpu there?? If you can, why they don't give this option?? I want it all written on piece of paper and then signed by your advisor ;).   ad. 3. see my previous post.   ad. 2. when I have more time I might do comparison on that. It's unlikely to me this is the case.
  21.   Let's say I pay 2k for 2inch thick machine and you pay 3k for apple. You pay 1k extra on top of mine ("brand") I pay 1k less. Hardware depreciation is going to be the same on both. Now let's say in 1 year time hardware goes down 50%. Mine is worth 1k$. Your is worth 2k$. Let's say in 2 years time hardware will go 90% down. Mine is worth 200$ yours is worth 1200$. Can you get more money for yours after 2 years? Yes, 1000$ in this example. Are you effectively getting more money when selling after 2 years? No. You were stuck 1k$ from the beginning with the same performance. What's the outcome? You sold yours for 1000$ more to get unstuck and be even on money with me.
  22.   AFAIR Quadro is the past. Reasearch I've done 1-2 years ago showed that regular cards started killing Quadro cards long time ago in performance. If I recall correctly it's not worth buying quadro these days unless something has changed. Should be easy to verify it with google.
  23. Zach, there is no doubt joke can pay your bills. Similar BMCC vs 5DMK3. 5DMK3 is a joke in video mode in comparison to BMCC and still can pay ones bills. Even VIDEO mode of 5DMK3 is a joke when you put it next to the GH2 (assuming you don't need low light and you're not in extra tight spaces).   your joke in video mode: C300 vs BMCC, hell, maybe even C500 vs BMCC
