@jagnje OMG that perfectly works with all the lens i mentioned ↑ 
IRIS function and even the IS thing on TAMRON lens works (which does not work with my gh4) 
 
the happiest thing happen in 2018 so far..  u made my day. thank u!

Firstly Thank you for your service... so it just becomes as dumb speed booster huh?.... they all sold out from amazon and all the ebay orders are like 3 weeks estimated shipping  just to send back if it dosent work...(I dont have any other M43 cameras like a GH4 to use it on)  
Perhaps they will work it out with a firmware update but they probably think the BMPCC market is small potatoes so there is no urgency. 
 
Im experimenting with a different route
Since.... I already have a nice selection of Canon FD lenses...
50mm 1.4,
80-200 F4 L,
24mm 2.8,
50mm Macro 3.5, 
The only thing im missing is a wide so I found a FD 15mm 2.8 fish-eye (made in 1976?)   Got a Cheap $100 FD speed booster to MF3.... and this is by far the most money ive invested in a FD lens ($200) the classic wide angles are rare and not cheap.
Cool thing is even with the speed booster there is very little distortion in the BMPCC image it kind of reminds you of anamorphic lenses that bow ever so slightly on the edges.  
Still got 3 weeks to decide if I want to return it all and go and go Metabones+ a used Sigma 18-35 1.8 ( Friggin $800+)
Cool thing is If I can find a cheapo A7S someday I have a pretty complete set for FULL Frame camera lenses ready for action!
 
We shall see.   Thanks again for the news on the viltrox
 
 

More stuff Looks good to me I believe this is the person that started this thread
 
 
 
 

unfortunately it does not seem to work with bmpcc at this point. it does not show f-stop (cant control). 
Seems like It cannot recognize lens at all. 
Lens i tested
・Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM Lens
・Tamron SP 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di-II VC
・Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 DI VC
3lens above work well with my gh4 (except stabilization)

Found this video of bloom Talking about it 
Figured you'd Dig it.
 
 

@Trek of Joy So true, great comment.
@timmyturntable "glad I bought it, nothing else is worth trading for it yet" class here too...
Like @lucabutera said, after the mobile phones exploded in poeple's pockets and coats what happened? Samsung increased its profit in the mobile department! If they offer that spec list (that will never happen, we are just having some fun here) for 3.000$, tell me who isn't going to consider one of those? Instead of the , let's say, the new 90D that barely will have 4K..
Come one, NX1 was an unbelievable machine, in more than one senses (continuous 78 minutes video, for some this is significant), no over heating in the worst conditions (I know!), unbelievable ergonomics (subjective, but not really!), great JPG engine, colors, AWB, DIS and DUAL IS with some lenses, the unique workhorse S lens and dead cheap very sharp pancake primes, etc. What you were buying back in 2014? 16mgpxls GH4, 16m,gpxls Fuji (not even doing any video) 70D, and 7D, and a6000.. Come on people..
All I can say is, glad I bought it, nothing else is trading for it yet, and now I am spending money on other stuff, rather than consider buying my 3rd or 4th camera after I abandoned NX1 (or never bought it!).
P.S actually I bought a 3rd and 4th camera. A NX3000, NX500 and another NX1! Guess what, I do 3-4 camera low budget jobs, I give the smaller cameras to all my relatives to take pictures, and everyone is happy (me too!).

I'll prepare now your back's eulogy.
Have shot a fair amount with a RED ONE (which is kinda similar ish size), and OUCH
 
 
You'll need a very very big gimbal indeed!
Basically of the ones I listed, the only "small" cameras are: GH5S/EVA1/Terra. 
The rest of them you'll need to take a totally different approach to how you'd do it with a NX1. 
 

Note I said GH5S, not GH5
 

Really?! I reckon Varicam perhaps has the "best" image right now. (and EVA1/GH5S is somewhat inspired by that)
 

Maybe  you haven't watched enough camera tests of them? Here you go, watch this:
 

Anywho.....  a bit more seriously, I think their image gets a bit underrated. Look into the LC709A LUT, and hang out on dvxuser (because the F5, and even FS7, only very rarely gets discussed here as EOSHD is a different market niche) before making a final decision on Sony.

On Facebook now discussion about a new NX-3 is coming. Who knows more about this rumour?
https://www.facebook.com/groups/SamsungNX1.for.video/permalink/1123178037816446/

I used the PZ version 16-50 with the Pilotfly H1 (8bits) works pretty well. 
 

@IronFilm Ok that FS7 test video has convinced  me I've watched it like 6 times.      

hi guys, i have travelled to Patagonia a month ago and put this film together. Was also shot entirely on Samsung NX1. Would love to hear your thoughs :
 

So the Viltrox EF-M2 is getting al the positive reviews from GH5 users as a metabones speedbooster alternative with autofocus and auto Iris controls!
http://www.viltrox.com/en/index.php?m=index&a=show&cid=145&id=181
Now I am curious: has somebody tested this adapter with the bmpcc / bmmcc? 

Geez with all this great low light tech it seems to have created an aesthetic problem for me... Blown out street lights and signs seems you have to try your best to keep light sources out of your shots or strange as it  may be ... Use an ND filter @ night  ?
welcme to the new word

The GH3 is my longest standing camera to date. I had it for 3 years, as in that timeframe, I spent my gear budget on lighting. 
I now have a GH5, preferring this as my professional level A-cam to an FS5 with a Shogun Inferno. 
I've shot 5-6 music videos on the GH5 now, only 1 has been released. Please note, this video also has some A7S2 and A6500 shots in there. 
 

Hey all,
I've just finished up a new grading tutorial especially for any of you shooting CinemaDNGs. It actually works with any CinemaDNG, not just limited to Blackmagic cameras.
In the tutorial I show you how get access to the full dynamic range, richer colours throughout the full range, and all in a curve thats a lot nicer to grade than BMD Film.

Feel free to leave any feedback or questions and I'll do my best to help you out!
 

The green cast is more prominent than I imagined. But it is apparently pretty notorious on some of Tiffen's diffusion sets. You were able to grade it out pretty well though, so kudos on that. Was it difficult to tell if you had a good exposure using it? 
That issue aside, look how many stops you gained, I would at least say 1-3 easily. You were able to retain all the details in the shadows without any crushing, and your specular highlights particularly on his cheeks are not clipping. The rolloff seems pretty smooth too, but I'm not sure if this particular filter is attributing to that aspect. Diffused lighting will cause the same effect, its hard to tell. Cast shadows on the face seem pretty widely dispersed.
Overall, I'd say the filter is a success. Would you agree? 
As far as a matte box. I've gone through a few, including a cheap plastic one, and I would only reccomend one that swings away. Otherwise the effort of having to move it off the rail supports is probably just as involved as screwing off a round filter every time you want to switch a lens.
Also worth considering is your overall weight and footprint a matte box adds to your rig. It looks pretty damn cool and really helps cut out flaring, (with flags) but not the best solution when you want to be a bit more inconspicuous and nimble. I have both systems for various situations, which works out great, but it can get pretty costly. You don't want to cheap out in this area because you definitely get what you pay for. 
Here's the matte box I have which is on the cheaper end of the spectrum but not exactly cheap as in build and feature set:
https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwju2t-k8qnYAhVFuMAKHeQOAc4YABAOGgJpbQ&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAESEeD2UOS6SdwHGsCvTgYEXVax&sig=AOD64_0QpK1xICus5qTNgEKgBJHmElAslQ&ctype=5&q=&ved=0ahUKEwjS7tek8qnYAhXE5IMKHTZSBlQQwg8IOg&adurl=
(I paid about $50 more for mine so the above is actually a pretty good deal) 
Again, you'll need a rail/rod system, but that is fairly inexpensive and it gives you the option of also rigging up a shoulder mount/handle bar. 
There are cheaper options out there but you'll take a serious hit on quality and features. In my opinion that would end up being more cumbersome than helpful. 
There's also this, which would be a mix between round and square filter methods that attaches to the end of your lens:

After 2 years Iam still in love with it, I won't buy new one now I'd probably wait for Canon 1DX mk2 to get cheaper on 2nd hand market until then I still do low budget music videos so the money is tight can't afford yet to get bigger better..at the end for normal people's eyes it's the story, framing, lighting that really matters not pixel peeps. 
here's my latest video shot in London with NX1
 

Last month I completed a short doc/promo for MMA fighter Drake Boen, directed by Edrei McCabe, shot and edited by me. The final version utilizes archival footage of past fights and doesn't have film grain, but I prefer this version, which I've dubbed "The Editor's Cut". It was shot mostly on the Canon EOS M with ML (H.264 with 3x Bitrate) with some Panasonic G7 (with focal reducer). Lenses used: Canon FD 50mm 1.4, 28mm 2.8, 35-105mm 3.5, and the Tokna 17mm 3.5. Edited with Premiere, graded with FilmConvert.
 

Here's something done with NX500 + Rokinon 12mm + something which has: "made in USSR" 44mm, written on it + small LED panel
footage was shot at DC / 90Mbps / no audio

Happy holidays to all
