  1. I think canon needs to achieve a much higher dynamic range now as well. I think that is a major factor in why arri dominated the oscars.

    Another factor that makes the arri sensor look better is its ability to clearly distinguish colors variations. See this article comparing red dragon,epic and alexa. 
    When shoot a chart with the red epic the vector scope shows the points with much more color smear than the alexa. A smeared color patch means that hues along that smear will all look the same. There won’t be much subtlety between hues.

  2. The entire canon management team for cameras needs to be fired. The are old and clueless.

     

    Sony is bad also. They always lure you into something then leave out a critical feature only available in the most expensive pro product.

     

    Not sure why panasonic thinks its ok to have shit dynamic range. They really make the those rebranded Leica lenses look bad.

     

    Lets hope BlackMagic can get access to a better sensor and open sources their firmware.

  3. I have no problem with the form factor. If I and hand held i'm always using my small hd monitor with the camera body on my shoulder like Hurlbut's master series. Most of my shoots have the camera in full matte box and cage on a jib and dolly.

     

    No mention of audio meters yet. I agree anamorphic support is a no brainer.

     

    With a wireless hdmi transmitter you really dont need to look at the back of the camera. I run a video village feed into a apple cinema display on a c stand.

  4. I just got the first version of the Tokina AT-X Pro 28-70mm f/2.6-2.8 at keh for $400. It is based on the original Angenieux design. It is very nice and has an internal zoom with hard focus and zoom stops. The filter size is 77mm. This lens will cover the 64mm-160mm range on a Full frame DSLR. It's perfect to use with the iscorama 54 on the BMCC.

     

    Here is a link to a sample video I found.

  5. I'm currently use a canon 70-200 f4 with my iscorama 54 on my 5d mark II and it fits perfectly and allows me to zoom with the canon and focus with the isco.  I'm thinking about buying a BMCC and an not sure how to mirror this setup on that camera. I did look at the panasonic 35-100 f2.8 but its kinda pricey.

     

    Also what is the widest lens that I can use on the BMCC with a iscorama 54? 28mm?

     

     

    Any other suggestions? 

     

     

    Thanks
