With Speed Boster we get a 102mm FF eq. Good for portrait :P hahah that's wha I want 28 and 35mm lenses from DSO soon ;)

Thanks guys I love this lens. If you havnt gone out and gotten one what are you waiting for. I'll be putting together a thorough review ASAP. The creative options this lens provides is incredible. Also I guarantee that the Oval Apertures in this guy are worth more then fighting with all the lower end anamorphics or paying the crazy prices for some of the other offerings. Also if you are going for the Trump ask the guys about getting on the list for the new Flaresex filter. Its sweet and I'll be reviewing that soon as well.
 
Thanks for checking out my little test video

That lens is really sexy.

This is shot using the D800, DSO Trump FF58 with Oval aperture, the new flare sex filter and towards the end the Iscorama 1.5X anamorphic lens mounted inside the Trump for a 2X oval bokeh.

Some images of the trump I'll grab one with the iscorama in there too.
 

 

 
 

I'm so tempted to get this lens, but am about to get a Pocket cam & it pains me to say that i might need a wider lens!

Not a single problem with him! Alan is a cool dude! Very special British side (:P ) I already deal with him a couple of times not only with money but "things"! (that one is one of the most funniest stories of my life.... )    Top rating 5*****!

Cool Small Rig Seb :) The video has your typical touch, I like it!

Hello everyone,
I worked as a dp on this short by Remo Pini.
 
It was with the bmcc 2k version, my first time using this camera.
 
If you have any questions let me know

I stumbled on this video and it displays perfectly the biggest flaw that I had the displeasure to work with on that camera:

*** EDIT WITH WORKAROUND ***
 
There is a clever trick to work around this issue.
Thanks to Axel for digging it up.
 
Since the bmcc records raw, and when shooting raw you keep the actual recorded footage of the sensor, and an adjustment such as iso, is only kept written alongside the file in the metadata, what you can do is lower the iso until your image becomes decent.
 
In post you can then bring it back down to the native 800iso.
 
Not a perfect fix, as we would need to know how much of an increment we would need to exactly counter the screen displayed over exposure, but a nice workaround.
 
*** EDIT WITH WORKAROUND ***
 
 
When you work as a dp on a film,
 
You need the best visual feedback possible through the monitor in order to frame and work on your lighting adequately.
Does not need to be perfectly accurate, but the more the better, especially when working with lighting equipment to adjust your lighting.
You need proper feedback of how soft your fill light is, how strong your rim light and with what fall off etc...
 
And you need to have the vectorscope, as the visual feedback fools you in terms of recorded data, to get the best exposure possible on your camera, and make decisions on what you want to preserve, whether highlights or shadow or a balance of both, if the situation demands it.
 
Now with the bmcc, you have to extremely over expose your image to get best image quality.
The result is a completely washed out image through the monitor, good luck properly fine tuning your different lights with that.
 
And you have to disregard the vectorscope, because if you use it to expose properly you will actually be underexposed.
You have instead to completely over expose until you see zebras, meaning no proper control over exposure.
 
This is a major flaw, no professional camera should disregard the vectorscope and provide such inaccurate visual feedback.
 
Now let me know if I missed something here
