Here is also BMMCC overexpose test. Technically digital sensors don't have such a thing as overexposure and there is nothing to test there because sensors itself don't have any highlights rolloff. They capture light in linear gamma and hard clipped in one single point. Next that linear data converted to LOG gamma specially designed for each sensor model. And next Color Science converts Log to normal gamma and shapes final image look. So mostly overexpose look is a part of software, but not a part of a sensor hardware itself I use different lighting direction in this test to provide extreme bright light, so these images don't exact match to previous tests. As before i use REDLog3G10/REDWideGamutRGB as timeline gamma. Other gammas and other Log to Rec conversion methods may provide different look of highlight rolloff clipping. And the same with Highlights Recovery turned OFF:

I was inspired by those Cinama5D P6K tests and take attempt to exam BMMCC in near similar conditions. DNGs processed with workflow described here https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=65149&p=543725#p537852 My background is simple black fabric, so it is darker and so more extreme test than Cinema5D examples, you can compare things by Color Checker patches. Let's be honest, even P6K can't provide usable underexposed 5 stops. It looks too noisy and became plastic mess if you add SNR. Sort of horisontal FPN lines also became visible in Sony sensors. So we see here is 5 years old native HD camera with Fairchild Imaging dual gain sensor fights against gigantic 6K/4K modern Sony sensors in downscaled to HD mode. 3 stops under expose is pretty usable with BMMCC as well as P4k/P6K. If only we can fight FPN it could be extended even further... P.S. I only can imagine what newer Fairchild Imaging dual gain sensor is capable of. Along to 4K it technically waaaay less noisier (Dark Current: 2 e-/sec compare to BMMCC sensor: 25 e-/sec, Ursa 4.6K sensor: 15 e-/sec) (Read Noise 1.0 e- RMS. BMMCC sensor: 1.2 e- RMS, Ursa 4.6K sensor: 1.5 e- RMS) It is better to see images at full size in new tab: And same examples, but with noise reduction (applied before expose push) and with fIlm emulation LUT applied:

Yes, SmallRig have only one version of BMMCC SmallRig cage. BTW, all my product images that have 16x9 ratio where shoot in RAW on BMMCC with Mosaic OLPF and processed in Resolve with workflow described sep by step here https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=65149&p=537852#p537852 See also BMMCC/BMMSC Rigs Collection: https://bmmccrigs.tumblr.com I really can't see any reason for myself to move to other camera yet. Some examples that may inspire you:

About 7 years ago i had few attempts to create DIY cinema camera, but it appears too complicated ant too risky as for hobby project. You can read a full story here: A story from SmallRig customer

Battery can power BMMCC about 6.2 hours. See item description. Start/Stop Controller Trigger is under developnent yet. More info here: http://bmcuser.com/showthread.php?23463 I am NOT the filmmaker of boxer film

And also don't forget about all those custom made accessories for BMMCC/BMMSC by RADIOPROEKTOR available here https://lavky.com/radioproektor/

Dear fellows, for some reasons i don't post updates and don't check posts on this forum for a long long time anymore. All my products are still available. Also i released new 14.8V Battery Enclosure Module resently. If you want to order some stuff please visit my marketplase at https://lavky.com/radioproektor/ You can always find more actual info about curernt projects at bmcuser and blackmagicdesign forums.

Because admin of this forum start to share Russian political and military aggression propaganda (even if it was presented as cameras review) i don't check messages and don't post on this forum anymore. Please check my stuff at other forums if you are interested. Bye.

I like new MixPre for sure but for budget but quality 24bit 96khz audio with analog limiters it was always option like MixPre+portable recorder for many years.

BMMCC with OLPF filter and proper rig is still better way to go RAW in compact size And just small compare to BMMCC with OLPF filter. Shoot in RAW, colors are corrected with ColorChecker Tool in Resolve. Contrast set to 1.2
