  1. you will need to check that your record settings (Dynamic Range) are set to 'Film' CinemaDNG RAW. I usually set the viewfinder to 'film' too

    Keep ISO to the native 800 (experience tells me it is pointless doing anything else in reality)

  2. I still love the pocket. I was lying on the cold sand on Friday evening taking (what turned out to be awesome) DNG RAW 30fps footage of the sea. Got it home and was dumbstruck yet again on what I was seeing. Shooting at 30fps and decent optical flow re-timing the frames are rock solid even taken down to 10% of original speed. It is a quality (I suspect historically significant) camera. The only change I would look for would be support for the higher data rates of the type II cards. It feels like a very loved child at this point and nothing on the market is more compelling IMHO

  3. I don 't know, i might be wrong, but trivial Kowa 16H looks waaaay better to my eye, but thank you for the test, it is a beautiful creative shot, it's just disappointing that there is not much anamorphic is going on in the frame besides the aspect ratio and really weak flare

     

    whoops didn't mean to quote twice, sorry

    I paused at 2.01 as the cutlery revealed - albeit very briefly - the quite controlled and beautiful flare characteristics of these lenses. I liked it. It didn't scream for attention but added value for sure

  4. Thanks Hugo, appreciate the time and the energy you took. I agree with Rich, some comments were pretty harsh. Don't see why sharing is rewarded with flak; it only serves to push people away and thins the community. As to the footage (well shot and yes, controlled but fits the style of the piece). Would like to see some rapid focus pulling on the lenses (as well as speed shifts in the edit). I own their Anamorphot and the nature of that beast is that it needs a tape measure involved to hit the marks. Thanks again

  5. Thanks for sharing those with us, Axel. The Flemish painters rule! To be honest, the first time I saw 4K TV was only a few weeks ago, and even though the picture was dazzling - I suppose they were clips from Sony's vast library - I had no desire to rush out and buy one. It was not at all the same as when I would upgrade my DVD collection with Blu-ray discs. The law of diminishing returns? Like many, if not most users, I will probably shoot in 4K and downscale the image for a more pristine 1080p. Does there always have to be war between Black Magic and Panasonic users?

    Jonpais, I own both BM and Panasonic cameras, and like my children, they have their talents and their annoying habits, but I love them just the same;)

  6. Thanks for sharing, really enjoyed the footage. Your setup is exactly like my own except you have an impressive lack of Shake!
    I received my anamorphot this week and set it up yesterday, hoping to do some work with it this week. I've been using a kinotechnic Lcdv and it's been really useful for hitting focus with greater regularity. I did some interior work yesterday with the lens and was at t4/5.6, I find the BMPCC nearly impossible to use without variable nd, do you have one on the front of the anamorphot or did you simply go to T8 etc on the 35mm?
    Thanks again, I'm inspired to go out and get busy:)! Lee
