greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Once you are editing your own post and introducing another paragraph (now as prologue LOL) here I am again to address you that question in disguise of another personal attack.
Still without clue who you are. You instead have that link in my signature which can give you full disclosure who I am, from where I am coming. Real world, fellow ; ) I never said what you're inferring from my posting. Please don't put words in my keyboard I didn't write. I only said attitude this company has.
You know or should know if you are in this industry as real customer, to have a product out there means much more than a sale. It means to offer reliability, support, good communication, only to mention a few.
I referred myself to business policies and lack of view on the segment they've introduced this offer. US $1-1.5K segment where hybrids have arrived and changing this industry. Take a look on the success of this website where we are and do a fair comparison with the remaining out there only to have a better glance on topic ; -)
I'm sorry but I will not repeat myself. You have the chance to read my posts following my profile. Good luck!
PS: Now a second paragraph you've added... When will you stop to protect your argument, dude? I won't bother to answer anymore. My time is paid by myself, pal ; ) Nuff said. The most funny is to have now Captain Hook to downvote some of my criticism. C'mon guys... I had inside information Grant Petty could be monitoring these lines, so be careful with your free speech... LOL ; ) Good chance to address some of our concerns, isn't it? ; -)

I don't see a product exclusively for my use. Personal use or work. I see it not only from my background or experience. I also help others to make their own choices. Yes, I see it not only from my own knowledge, from a scientific perspective because tech is science, but science is not only tech ; )
There are several equations these boards tend to neglect, being Economics only one of them. This makes any industry though. Such standpoint childishly ignores know-how, that's all. Market, in a word. All of us should have that variable to comprehend any tech talk. Unfortunately, if someone comes here to mention it, the reading over here is taken by 'features whining' instead. Or exclusively under a certain personal perspective or experience. We are here to trade different angles and POVs, I guess. BTW, I'd like to address you by your name too but I am unable to have that real information from you (E : -)

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
LOL Right. That title. The marketing...
It is not only on lack of features. But attitude. I think this brand is overestimated. Fanboys see it like the last return of the Savior. That's not what my experience tells me. Let alone the business perspective someone might expect from a company too centered on the broadcast segment when the media convergence is changing this industry. It is only a distinct viewpoint. But people seem to rather listen or see flowers about...
Who? You. You are not everyone, man. Not at all. Come here to call dictator to someone else... LOL
I do it, as for instance. Not idea in your background, but I categorize a camera under different perspectives, being price range one of them. Speaks two decades and a half on this industry ; -)

Guys, @shooter and @greenscreen are obviously trolls in this thread. Andrew recently did a post about companies sending in people to the forum, it definitely could be these two he means.
I suggest not feediing them for a while and we will see what happens.Bots and paid trolls are usually an impatient bunch.

greenscreen reacted to shooter in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Common sense. Lack of common sense isn't good for me as customer. You all look like to be part of a sect. Like they are God or something. They didn't send a camera to Andrew Reid, they should know why. How old are you? They're arrogant. Another viewpoint. You think it isn't relevant, what are you doing here?
-
greenscreen reacted to shooter in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
It is a very good offer. The quibble is with their marketing.
How come they sell thousands of cameras with this thread, yet they didn't send a camera for the guy who owns the site? They should send one for free, as gift. Their marketing is a disaster.

greenscreen got a reaction from Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Really? Emanuel is praising the camera. I follow his posts.
-
greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
...and their superior color science & acquisition tech, no matter what : ) It is a bit pointless to try pretending to ignore that. Useless IMO. We have the right to favor something else if our IQ standards match fulfilled, though. May the holy grail be beyond pixel peeping ; -)

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Competitors are there but they've raised the bar too. I believe there's room for all, trust me, they're not even worried with them.
We arrived to a certain point it's not the major players to ignore innovator companies like Blackmagic anymore, rather the opposite. Numbers, the only God. Who pays the bill, after all? Is it really important to them? It should be...
I don't think this is meaningless. Not only tech is important at least to my book. RED got the love of the clientele because their service, view and respect for their support basis.

BM fanboys are far, but so far away from their company policies... ; -)
Tough business, no more no less.
Sometimes can even happen to contradict the common sense behind : X Well, I guess some senior executives can be junior executives (or the contrary hehe) trading places in disguise... LOL

On the spot, Glenn. Will you notice it then? ; )
If you look after PDAF nothing will stop you to not end there ; -)

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
...a camera or the brand itself? :-X
Hybrid is something a CC will never be but a CC will tend you shoot more motion than stills when not only stills...
I find this camera unique of a kind.
They will be in trouble when X-H2 will be outside though. Albeit only if sooner than later. I guess 2019 shall be a terrific one anyways, maybe from scratch (only price will justify 2018 models by then) already from beginning, very early, perhaps Feb/March if/when X-H2 and GH6 will pop up ; -)

The whole point is BMD guys are slow to compete with hybrid features like AF and IBIS as for instance or even a different camera range in the same segment.
Hybrids arrived to a certain point Jannard's DSMC intended to be. Scarlet 3K for 3K, now lowered to 1K-1.5K (BMD realized that but they struggle to deliver hybrid features).

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Funny. The use of focal reducers is exactly the major sale point for MFT IMHO. This, affordable light MFT glass. And C-mount bargains on eBay. And...
...Pocket 4K doesn't fit in the category of small camera bodies though ; -)
-
greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
I guess 'S' model is over for both Panny and Sony too. We could infer hybrid's milestone. No one can ignore BMD's role whether we like the brand whether not : )
I am like you. Nothing will touch Panny love. Once; it is forever ; ) Let alone YT where no other camera got such spread indeed.
Fujifilm has gotten the best results in the hybrid realm with their aggressive business model now. Seems hybrid shooters are their targeted business today rather than that video world for social media like Panny or broadcast and corporate like Petty's brand.
I wish BMD had their business vision rather than only codecs and color science to be fair. They could and should be further. But seems they don't like you use the word "should" LOL ; -)

GH6 will inevitably be a need here.

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
I'd tend to never be a fanboy of a company self-centered into the broadcast sector when we live media convergence days as ever before, if some people haven't understood yet.
I don't find hybrids to be bad cinema cameras, rather the opposite or this website wouldn't even exist. Neither this thread with more than half million of views, trust me.
People come here not because they're not happy with their hybrid cinema cameras. Only because they want much more. Hybrids are reaching that one.
As observer and industry player, I'd say 5DII was only the first stone to be followed by that 'S' model by Sony with Panny to include 10-bit 4:2:2 in-camera, now even Fuji has added their 4:2:0 version.
How long up to arrive to the BMD standards? Will it be so long? Is anyone sure of that will be a long road from today? C'mon...
Why that same GH5S sensor? I've even asked to someone top ranked inside BMD, just a few days ago and he was unable to deny it... Disclosed information, he defended himself. Give us a break for a very simple reason: market and its players will dictate that one, step by step, from any incremental introduction now because giant leaps have been taken. Not marketing -- rather different than market(s) who actually establish the rules.

Great Malick : ) One of the most interesting contemporary visionaries of our time : -)

greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Nikon Z7 is at EOSHD HQ - better video than Sony?
Not with that hybrid combo though, Don... ; ) It is a pity to not have 4K/60p, no sense at all : -(
-
greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Yes, but I had to download it to add blur from my PotPlayer...
I'd rather look to 'The Color of Light' video and the focal reducer shots (18-35mm f/1.8).
You feel the difference to thinner MFT glass BTW.

tip to do it with embedded videos from vimeo LOL they embedded it on their webpage but they don't allow others to embed it from YT... these autocratic tics from a company like BMD are killing me : X
download embedded videos on Chrome:
customize and control button on the right corner -> More tools -> Developer tools -> F+Ctrl -> mp4 -> select all & copy -> word processor -> F+Ctrl = resolution chosen -> copy paste link -> click on right to save as wherever you want in your drive as you wish ; -)

greenscreen reacted to webrunner5 in X-T3 or Pocket 4K?
Oh no doubt on the handling side you can do a Lot better. But 10,000 bucks is a hell of a long haul from 1000 bucks. And I doubt not many of those even in that price range will beat the ultimate output this thing has. Hell there aren't many that have even beat the original BMPCC at any cost. Raw is a great equalizer.
-
greenscreen reacted to Emanuel in X-T3 or Pocket 4K?
Hard to beat though with this disruptive actual price range now for 4K RAW.
BMD is rocking for such department matter : )
They are now who RED promised to be a decade ago : -)

Out of likes now, guys, thanks for your contribution anyway. Hey Don, I put my 'Horses for Courses' disclaimer up there : D In any case, my ultimate choices nowadays ; ) are P4K and X-H2 for IBIS add-on : D I'd buy the X-T3 instead if I would only have one camera choice today : -)
