I know nothing I just got a email for a pre order... I been out the mix for a while and Got a whiff of this Thought I would come here to get the breakdown but its seems not to be here yet.

Looks incredible with built in NDs and Tilty Screen and Eye piece.... why not chatter?

OOC = OUT OF CAMERA (what are you settings if your not going to do any color correction at all from the camera)

Hey  thanks to all for the awesome grades you did. Its making mine feel too "Pinky" in comparison.

P4k Shot it back in Dec I think 2 or 3 updates ago...

It was a very loose random "shoot" just messing around.  was mainly trying to test out a $900 Lumix G II 12-35 2.8 that had a scratch on it. I scored for $200 on the ebay... you can only see it well when in certain light and it just looks Kinda blurry.

Id say its acceptable "Character" for a $700 discount.

Here is the full Vid if Interested....

Shot it 1080p and uprez'd to 4k for output. 

A new shot it saved it in TIFF hope that's right

This is P4k Prores 1080p LT  

Drummer_1.25.2.tif

Tiff to take a stab @ it.

A loupe solution... Looks kinda Homemade. But it does have a opening in the bottom to use the touch screen when its on.

My general battery solution has been this....

ITs looks just like the classic Juicebox battery here but it costs $40 Less. and comes with many adapters.

I connected it with the P4k Dc cable pack.

it seems to work pretty good I haven't used it till it died yet but Powered my p4k and my SmallHD DP4 together for about an hour and it dropped to around 66% doesn't seem bad considering the DP4 is a power hog in my opinion.

The voltage meter works very well. 

I also came across this

https://www.amazon.com/XTPower-MP-50000-Power-Bank-Notebooks/dp/B00N4XK7RG/ref=lp_9455594011_1_7?srs=9455594011&ie=UTF8&qid=1544257835&sr=8-7

its seems to be the same thing but newer and 60% battery more life than the older ones above.   but at $200 your already flirting with Vmount territory.   

Found this Anti Glare Screen protector for the P4k. Figured it could be useful for others.

It is disappointing for sure.

Actually, they have changed/add a thing or two, and the price is equal, or less to the Chinese product, so they did alright there, but they promised the app as well.

Right now I can't use it at all, and I am not interested on any other use. I just hope a 3rd party app will show up and save the day!

Hey... any news good or bad on this product now (almost November 2018) I'm interested in this as I have Old Iphones that I could use for a Monitor....

Did they get their S#!T together 

Requesting an Update.

Hey turbo is that a hot mirror/it cut? I was led to believe the p4k doesn't require it!?

Happy Page 300 day of this thread!

Pretty much the same thing here in the states, only 50 cameras arrived this week, and all were demo cameras for stores. This info is from Hot Rod Cameras. I'm first on their list, and they have promised me a camera next week as they have been promised by US BMD distribution to receive another order next week, but they do not know the volume of the shipment yet.

Hey bro put a good word in for me as well!! I pre ordered from hot rod while grant was still giving his speech! They didn't even have a picture up yet! 

Is it True that Human Vision can Hold up to 30+ Stops of DR?

$199 for the next 24 hours 

Thanks Man.. Looks Like If I strip my NX1 down to nothing and use the PWR Zoom or my Pancakes it's a go.   

Shot a Very Little Bit of Footage (forgot to charge batteries so couldn't shoot much)

Bonus if you can tell where the music is from!

Was Trying so different coloring techniques but had to stop. I had so many nodes I crashed it once. Using the Global Color Nodes really bogs my computer down.

But My Computer is Somewhat old and Resolve 15 is still Beta.

Hey Boys thanks for the Kind words. And the Critique 

Man This Video is a Hit Only been out 3 days and it's almost 70 views and 3 likes and I gained a New Sub... Up to 11 now!  and it's Still Unlisted..... Watch out Casey Neistat

Has a ultra contrast, A hot Mirror, Vari ND filter and standard UV Filter... 

As for settings I Can Tell you off the top of my head... the Black lvl is +8 and its Normal DR 

These Filters Knock the Famous 6.5 K to 4k Sharpness Down a bit. it's just your in pain if you get Flared by the sun with this set up...  Well sometimes its cool I got A few strange otherworldly shots But I Need to strap on Matte box.

That shot with my hand in it is me blocking the sun.

And Nope the AF is Not working one bit I think it because the Contrast Filter has many little Specks in it that forces darker areas to be brighter. The AF is fine without the contrast filter though.

All in Davinci Resolve

Recently I took my antiquated Collectors Edition NX-1 out for nostalgia purposes. Came up with this.

Shot it with the S-Lenses. Mostly 16-50 + 4 filters over it

(BTW Autofocus is null & void with 4 Filters stacked on it)

Ungraded Still below if Interested

I always used B&H in the past, but after a few headaches... I have been peordering through Hot Rod Cameras. They have been A1 with every order I have placed with them.

I went with MR. EYEs Suggestion on the day everything changed for us.... it cost $122 to pre-order at HOT ROD.(with Shipping inc.) I just went back to see if they updated the Photo (it was a picture of a BMPCC v1 but with the 4k version name) And I swear they just added the small print that was not there monday: "Deposit is non-refundable" 

There is no way I plan on backing out but... somehow that doesn't seem legal. I paid with paypal though.

I have a few Cannes lions under my belt and I’ve shot with no ibis, non active lens mounts and finally NO AF for the past 7-8years. This camera is crazy insane, and also it’s freaking 1400dollars with tax!!! Like what stuff do you guys even shot?!

I won an ADDY, Got Nominated for a Local Emmy, and Won the Pine Wood Derby in Cub Scouts (3rd Place Trophy)

Can we Hang out Bro?
