I guess there is no pleasing some. You know what Panasonic did when they released a camera that needed active cooling to prevent it from overheating? They added a fan and vents. Why? Because it made no sense to offer all the features of the S1H if it couldn't handle it. It was a choice to go this route.

plucas Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Is it 100% confirmed that 24/25p modes suffer from the same heat issues? The chart only mentions 30p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did go back and see the response you wrote about your own hdmi question. Firmware would easily unlock the other recording modes to and external recorder. Unless this isn't technically possible I'm not worried about the R5 overheating issue. External will be the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you need to shoot with an IR filter on a bm camera.... Offcourse they are still selling them as they are brilliant cameras for an amazing price. Of course they are still selling them with the IR issue. Brilliant is not the word I would use for unstable color.

ade towell Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 It is so well documented that BM cameras need IR filter I find it hard to believe any person working in the industry is not aware of this. It is down to you to hire crew who know what they are doing if you haven't a clue yourself zerocool22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess most camera's are flawed in your perspective, oh gee I cannot shoot at 1.2 during a sunny afternoon because its all overexposed, yeah guess what "the ND filter was also not included".

The crew did not deliver what was promised. IR pollution is on all BMP6K footage to some extent. Look at 7:00 in on this video. The right side of that dress where the sun is hitting has IR pollution cast over that dress. All scenes with that dress and direct sunlight show this. I've actually grown to hate that BMP4-6K vintage look they produce because they colors are so off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade towell Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 With proper IR filter the BM cameras produce wonderful colour. You should do your research and hire crew that know what they're doing zerocool22 and TheRenaissanceMan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emanuel Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 If so, to couple with an external recorder might do the trick if the heat doesn't come up internally from sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still have heat generated but not nearly as much as internally. Now this would be another Atomos partnership which hasn't been as perfect as if could have been with other companies.

They wanted to make a workhorse m43, they put a huge heat sink there, they wanted a workhorse full frame camera, they added active cooling. The only reason Black Magic 4/6K cameras are that big, is the cooling solutions. It is not a coincidence that normal video cameras are quite big, at least bigger than the common mirrorless. It is well known that maximum performance's enemy is heat, look at the cooling solutions in PCs. Quite obviously this is not a video workhorse camera, it is a great photocamera with a good showcase of what is coming in the C series.
