Thanks Michael!

How's the new interface?

I don't think he meant the speed booster has OIS, only that it communicates with the camera to power the OIS of the lens :) either way, I just want the thing announced!

I can only hope what you couldn't spill the beans on is an electronic EF to M43 speedbooster specifically for the GH4, based on its unique crop for 4k :)

Hey Andrew, I think someone lifted your video and isn't crediting you on YouTube...

I got a copy of this lens from SLR Magic a few weeks ago. I love the look it produces, especially on the BMPCC. I used it mainly with the 20mm f1.7 and 14mm f2.5. However, it doesn't really suit my style of shooting. I really want to take the time to shoot Anamorphic, and while this is certainly faster and more efficient than say, a Sankor 16c, it still takes a little more care and precision.

That being said, I think I need to part with this lens combo. If anyone is interested in getting a copy shipped within the US, let me know. I have the whole kit, the 35mm SLR Magic, Anamorphot 50, all diopters and step up rings. It is in impeccable condition (took it out for 2-3 days on a shoot). I think the kit is retailing for $1899, but I'll glady sell under that for $1600 OBO.

This is truly a remarkable feat. However, I am worried about CF card prices at the moment. Say I went conservative with the 1920x720 option, 2MB per frame. 24fps x 2MB per frame brings us to 48MB per second of footage or approximately 2.8GB per minute. A 64GB 1000x CF card runs about $300 on Amazon. That's $300 for about 23 minutes of footage. The BMCC gives you about 30 minutes per 256GB SSD, which will run you $200, with a little more DR and 2.5k res. I think if you do not own either camera, the BMCC is still a better buy, but they are so so close now.

However, those of you lucky ones that already own a 5D MKiii, congratulations on Magic Lanterns best discovery yet and turning your camera into a BEAST.
