  1. The fact that Andrew hasn't posted anything about Blackmagic RAW is very telling...
  2. My post did not have malicious intent. I've been following the blog for years, since the 5D Mark II & Magic Lantern craze. I've used a lot of your tips and they've been very helpful. I only just recently joined the forum. I know you shoot, I think anybody with any degree of familiarity with the site knows that you shoot. You have many haters, why I don't know. I'm sure you know why. That hasn't stopped me from visiting the site because I don't know you and I don't know the people who don't like you. I just know that you're an alternative source of information for the products that I'm interested in. The forum members are most likely the same people that are on bmcusers, the blackmagic forum, nofilmschool, cinema5d, etc. My point was simply that making a public scene because you didn't get what you wanted isn't going to make them send you the blackmagic pocket 8k when it's comes out. It's only going to put you further down the black list. This is Life 101. I understand your frustration, you've done a lot of good work over the years and helped a lot of people, but this is industry bullshit. It's in every industry. If you want to be a part of the "in-crowd" of the industry you have to play the game. If not, just say fuck em and do your own thing. Remain independent. Or... Buy the camera like everybody else because you love it and show them LOOK I've gotten 1,000,000 impressions on my review, you need to pay attention to what I'm doing over here. Anyway, best of luck to you in the future. I'll be looking forward to your unbiased review.
  3. To be honest, I think that John B has a point. It really doesn't make sense for Blackmagic to give it's unreleased camera to reviewers. It could hurt sales if there are issues. Also, you can't get mad at John because you've kind of positioned yourself as a "blogger" / "reviewer". In regards to his "butchered footage" comment... I mean... uuhhh... some of it was pretty bad. Blackmagic customers ARE entitled... Have you been on their forum lately?? The can 100% guarantee that the second the pocket 4k is released, a thread will be started called "Pocket 4K v2 requests". Lastly, you're not promoting their camera. You're doing your blogging duties by talking about the most anticipated camera of the year. It does seemed rather presumptuous to think that they'd send you a camera because of that. It sounds like you're mad that you don't get the credit/respect that you think you deserve. This is life. I think the biggest issue though, is that you are in a box now, it's a blogger/reviewer box. If you want to be in a filmmaker/shooter box, changing that is in your hands.
  4. This guy is hilarious! Way to hit back Jon.
