[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/47013561[/vimeo] New Blackmagic Cinema Camera footage is in the wild, and this one is downloadable in glorious high bitrate 1080p. Although it isn’t the original DNG or ProRes rushes it is the closest we’ve come to a representative video yet.
Please note the compression and noise is from Vimeo not the camera John Brawley has some new Blackmagic footage for us. Unfortunately Vimeo streams 1080p at something like 7Mbit and John has no download option on this clip, so watching Blackmagic footage when it is so heavily compressed rather defeats the object of such a lovely 12bit raw camera. Nevertheless dynamic range and resolution are looking pretty good.

I have to say there are some question marks over that – but as a stills camera it is now my absolute number one choice against some very tough competition – the 5D Mark III, Fuji X Pro 1 and Sony NEX 7.

Would I consider intercutting RX100 footage with 1080p from a pro Super 35mm cinema camera? Yes I would. This should give you an idea of what a monumental achievement the technology of the RX100 is.
KineRAW tester Dan Hudgins has kindly updated us with new photos of the KineRAW S35 and downloadable raw CineForm clips on the EOSHD forum.
[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/44952547[/vimeo] Please note: the camera is an early prototype in test mode. Don’t draw any final conclusions, this footage is just for curiosity value Want to see what a 4K DSLR looks like? The wait is over. Here is a very short 4K source file for download (sorry – temporally removed)
The future is here but it seems nobody checked to see if it looked any good. Shot with a 3D Red EPIC rig at 48fps, Peter Jackson’s return to the world of JRR Tolkien has been ‘stripped of the magic of cinema’ according to many who saw the advance press screenings by Warner Brothers.
