    Mr. Freeze got a reaction from bjohn in Blackmagic Micro Cinema Super Guide and Why It Still Matters   
    Remember that the BMMCC never came with Resolve Studio. 440€ is a great deal, but take a look at the used market as well. You´ll probably need the cage and a focal reducer anyway. If you already have a lot of accessoires, 440 for a basically new one is a good price.

    I just wish they would place that sensor in a dslr/mirrorless body at an affordable price.

    Mr. Freeze got a reaction from gethin in A7rii in 2021   
    Just as a comparison:
    I regularly do Portrait-Photography with my 5D Classic from 2005 and make videos with the BMCC 2.5k from 2012. Both cameras are able to deliver stunning images/videos.
    I own both a Pocket 4K and a 5D mkIII, but I don´t feel I can´t get good footage, when using the older devices. Sure, the new ones offer some nice things, but they aren´t nessesary all the time.
    So I think a a7rii  form 2015 is a great camera. If you can buy one for a great price and you like the image you get, go for it.

    I've just reduced the sale price of my S5 from 1500 down to 149.99 for 1 minute...and bought it off myself!
    Off out to shoot my project now. I'm not even going to use a lens as the deal didn't come with one.

    I've used the Genus Eclipse now for many years don't even know if it's available anymore - slightly warm but no colour shift that I can see and no obvious drop in sharpness

    Not quite, for many reasons which we've gone through already.  This thread has more info than you ever wanted to know about emulating a Tiffen BPM filter in post.

    I do use filters for certain projects.
    UV-Filters are on all of my lenses as a protection of the front element.
    I use NDs to keep the aperture low. I don´t really like to film wide open, but one step down still needs NDs, especially outside if I want to keep 180° shutter angle.
    I use the Tiffen Black Pro mist 1/4 and the Cinebloom 10% for diffusion. With some of my vintage lenses I don´t really need them, as they already give a softer look to the image, but it can be used as a effect.
    I mostly use them with the Sigma 18-35 and 50-100, because they are sharper. I started to use them for photos aswell. You can form the light leaking across your subject in very organic ways.
    I have a polarizer for my photography aswell, that I sometimes use outside for landscape or when water/rain is included. 
    Overall, with ND and Diffusion you can counter the "video look" to a certain degree. But only if framing and what you´re filming supports this. But they can definitely help.

    BMD Micro Cinema Camera 8K and maybe new features for the 12k and the 4.6kPro G2?
    I think the Pocket Range is still good with the 4K and the 6k, but the Micro is due for an Upgrade.

    Is amazing. I love it. Never going back to RED unless I’m forced to by a client.
    Just thought I would share. The IQ is pristine, colors are great and it’s just a breeze to use. Will post a few stills here in a day or two.

    Forum news. You can now switch between dark and light theme.
    I prefer the dark one, especially on a bright modern high contrast IPS or OLED screen.
    Much easier on the eye and photos / videos really pop now on the darker backdrop.
    Enjoy!

    Mr. Freeze reacted to Neumann Films in Youtube 4K quality is so poor you might as well shoot 1080p   
    Follow up:
    I was extremely rude to what seems to be a really nice person in Matti...and I feel bad. I have nothing against him personally but I have some (obviously) strong thoughts about the type of content he uploads.
    More often than not I side with Andrew on this stuff. If you have built an audience and a name for yourself the LEAST you could do is be authentic and try something unique. To just pander and make 10 B-Roll videos with fake surprise face thumbnails is almost non sensical.
    It shows your sense of priorities. That you care more about fame/numbers/likes than you do anything artistic or creative. And that is a massive turn off.

    Guten Tag @Neumann Films 
    great to hear that your 12K URSA is on its way. I´m looking forward to the first samples.
    What I´ve already seen from BMD and John Brawley looked awesome. I just like the BM Color-Science and BRAW aswell. Back then it was CDNG and ProRes with the BMCC and the original Pocket, ahead of Canon here. Now it is the great Codec in combination with an enormous amout of recording-modes and really high-res formats.

    Yeah, I´d say for me clickbait can be something that promises to be XY and the only delivering a small percentage of that or even nothing at all.
    If something is marketed in a grand way and then delivering on it, I wouldn´t call it clickbait.
