    silvertonesx24 got a reaction from nahua in Exclusive: SLR Magic ANAMORPHOT 1,33X 50 pricing announced   
    I think you hit this exactly on the head. This is for people unhappy with the LA7200, and it hits that market well. Personally I can't believe the prices that LA7200s go for considering that bulkier or wider 2x lenses with sharpness that I consider usable are much cheaper, and this SLR at $800, it'll eat the LA7200 alive.
     
    But for people like me who moved to 2x after losing patience with smudgy LA7200 and Century, it doesn't really do anything for us unfortunately. 1.33x just doesn't do it for me anymore, I'll just crop. I haven't been impressed whatsoever with any of the demos from SLR or Letus.

    They should take the lead from Canon and leave raw video there to be "discovered"

    silvertonesx24 got a reaction from richg101 in SLR Magic anamorphic prototype V3 - Part 2 - The footage   
    It's funny, 2.35:1 used to be the new 16:9, and now I feel you've got to be in the 2.7-3.55:1 range if you really want that wide feel now.

    silvertonesx24 got a reaction from neoclass in LA7200 gives blurry edges with 5dm2 on 24-105 lens   
    That's a property of this anamorphic, and also the reason why I got rid of it. Sharpness along the edges is terrible.

    silvertonesx24 got a reaction from Caleb Genheimer in Is anamorphic really the best route to go today?   
    To me, it's all about the anamorphic bokeh. Standard bokeh makes me think of a Dunkin Donuts commercial. Anamorphic bokeh makes me think of a painting.

    silvertonesx24 got a reaction from ScreensPro in SlashCAM conclude Blackmagic Cinema Camera review, compares to Canon C300   
    No, I'm suggesting that his budgets allow him to work around big problems that we in many cases cant. Need to shoot in a car or a small office on a 2.7x crop? No problem for Mr. Aronofsky, knock down a wall, build a set, use a complicated rig or a rare and expensive lens. We usually don't have these options and have to rely on DOF and full frame to make the best of tight situations. As lousy as the 5D codec is, there's no way the BMCC would replace it for me. l enjoy the 35mm Zeiss + 5D look for subjects and raw isn't needed for most clients. My cinematographer can make up for dynamic range. So for now, I don't find it to be superior, and especially with the shipping issues, I'll wait.
