Yeah, my thought process was, you can already do that and always could, just crop in post. But as been pointed out, this new in camera crop will save space and time, and we definitely need to do that with the way the world's looking these days.

There's no reason it won't. EFs are made for APSC sensors, which this is. The only reason they don't work on speed boosters is because the glass in the booster stops the lens from clicking into onto the mount. On the P6k, there's no glass between the mount and the sensor, so nothing to get in the way.

That makes sense. Nice one.

It’s probably a stupid question, and I’m missing something, but what's the advantage of an in camera crop to s16 over using the whole sensor and cropping in post? Couldn't they just add s16 frame lines to help you get your shot and then you can adjust it later. That way it's the same advantage as shooting 6k for 4k delivery... right? Or even better, allow the s16 frame to fill the camera monitor, but the actual file has the full 4k image, vignette and all.

Only available to North and South American customers.

Firmware 6.5 is already out, but ONLY for the 6k camera. Is there really no option for 4k and 1080 Braw?

Isn't it pensive piano music and slow motion shots of your girlfriend walking through a park with a teal and orange LUT?

My experience with ML raw is limited, but Braw is much easier to work with and you can put it straight into the NLE and go. It also has half baked luts, so you have a near perfect SOC file with all the luxuries that come with raw. Ive also found its less noisy and often more forgiving that ML raw, but like I said my experience with ML is limited and it’s entirely possible I’m doing it wrong.

The 6k is definitely the uglier sibling.

But how many people bought the lowres 4k version before seeing any footage? People just trust that BM cameras look nice, and that's a pretty good reputation that they've built for themselves... despite the many other, more negative sides of that reputation.

They fit the Ursa line, so I don't see a reason they wouldn't fit this. They only don't fit speedboosters because there's extra glass between the mount and the sensor.

Especially with the dedicated Teal and Orange mode. https://fstoppers.com/gear/sigma-fp-has-built-teal-and-orange-color-mode-and-its-certainly-eye-catching-395686 Not so much eye catching to me. More I watering.

It does have dual ISO. 400 and 3200

@Snowfun, It looks like a Tentacle Sync: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1372225-REG/tentacle_sync_te1_sync_e_single_set.html/DFF/d10-v21-t1-x856237/SID/EZ

Anamorphic modes are coming to pocket 4k, also s16. Take a leaf out of @BTM_Pix's book and epoxy the booster onto the camera and eliminate all hassle forever... or leave it on there without the epoxy

At twice the price, I still think I'd buy the P4k and a booster over the 6k. There's many more lens options. If the 6k had more 4k framerates, things might be different. I don't see it as worth the upgrade, but I don't think it's supposed to be either.

Am I right in thinking the same lens on a p4k with a speedbooster will give close enough to the same image, FOV, bokah etc. only the resolution changes?

Wow! He also mentioned specifically that the footage is all from the P4k...

Classic. I really love BMD presentations. They seem so unplanned and unrehearsed. Comedy gold in the best way every time. EDIT: Boring Detection ?

That's my hope too. There's also rumblings of higher 4k frame rates on the P4K, but I'm not convinced. Also some revisions to Braw to make it even better.

I often do, but with external recorders. For example, I frequently shoot 4k raw on P4k and 1080 ProResLT with a baked in LUT on a Video Assist or Ninja Star. It's a real time saver for my workflow.

JVCs LS300 can record 960x540 proxies, but I think it's only if you're main recording is HD. It appears that 4K & proxies wouldn't work, but I'd have to double check that with the camera in front of me later if you're interested.

Hey guys, Yesterday my daughter and I made this animation. I've not done it much before, but it was a nice way to learn 3d space and camera moves in AE. Although it was just a fun little project for a rainy day and I didn't have any intention of showing it to anyone, I'm proud if it and her in many different ways, so thought I'd upload it. Would love your thoughts. EDIT: the images were scanned from paper drawings with a €70ish camera - does that count for the cheap camera challenge? ?
