Let's be honest, July is generous. Although I don't think the delays will be as bad this time.

Some words from Blackmagic CEO Grant Petty on the new cameras
MOONGOAT replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Yeah the BMCC shoots 25p. As for living in Australia, should be used to getting fucked over by now. Even by Australian companies. I'll be importing a Pocket I think. It uses standard Nikon batteries anyway so you can get a charger anywhere. -
Live coverage - Blackmagic Production Camera 4K and Pocket Cinema Camera
MOONGOAT replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Wait so the Pocket really doesn't shoot stills? That's kind of disappointing. Still buying one though. God dayum. -
No link sorry. It's Season 19 Episode 7, but it's the 2nd part in a 2 part special so if you haven't been keeping up I'd start with episode 6.

Top Gear confirmed for best show. Also funny to note, I did a search for Top Gear before making this thread and found Wondo's post from October last year claiming he sold 2 cages to them.

Maybe you got a defective lens. I have the same lens and adapter and it's pretty sharp at 1.4 (on a GH2) I did this in about 5 seconds. Not exactly scientific, but it gives you an idea. 2nd is the 35 at 1.4, obviously.

There are no rules, just what people are accustomed to. The norm is 24 or 25fps with 1/50 shutter speed because that produces the amount of motion blur that just looks 'right'.
-
ND Filter = Neutral Density filter. Think of it as sunglasses for your camera. Very handy for keeping the aperture and shutter speed where you want. Honestly you should just go out and mess around with it before you leave. As long as you have a camera, lens, SD cards and the willingness to learn you'll be fine. Start with the basics. 1/50 shutter speed (generally). Keep the ISO relatively low, etc.

Do one. I'd like to see it as well.

I did account for the bug. Although I should have included my profile settings. It was Nostalgic with everything at -2. At a glance it doesn't look that different from my results. 200, 320 and 400 seem exactly the same. 250 and 500 ridiculously unusable. Edit: Ahhh I just found your thread lol. Probably would have been easier to link to it instead. Ohwell!

Really nice. Love the ecu's of the ink prints on her face

Shooting a Flat Picture Profile in FS700 means less noise? Thoughts?
MOONGOAT replied to Scott Goldberg's topic in Cameras
In theory, less saturation = less noise. In theory... -
I imagine this is probably old news to a few of you, but the results are still quite surprising. You really don't know what kind of noise performance you're getting until you do the tests. The results may vary from camera to camera and with different hacks, but it's enough to open your eyes. The most surprising find for me was the excellent performance at ISO 1250 and the terrible performance at 250 and 320. I recommend downloading the original file from Vimeo, but if you're going to stream it watch at 1080 on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysdLkwugGjU https://vimeo.com/59990707

I really like the SLR Magic 12mm. But of course that's MFT so I don't know why I'm posting this.

That voice over. Oh my god. Also Baz Luhrmann. Ahahahahahahaha

Or maybe he did the piece for AdobeTV because he liked CS6.
-
Why do you need a petition for this? If it's a bug they'll fix it.
-
People are stupid. Can't change that. What you can do is stop going to 3D movies.
-
That's a good point you raise. Being able to light a scene preemptively. If you're lighting within your cameras latitude however wouldn't the contrast ratios stay the same anyway? Or at least be very close.
-
Generally Light Meters are used because misjudging an exposure on film would be very costly. When you're shooting with a bunch of friends or on a low budget set with a prosumer digital camera it's not such a big deal. No need to waste hours during a shoot checking those values. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but a lot of DP's don't use Light Meters because they aren't always necessary, especially when you know your camera well enough.

Because they're expensive, cumbersome and unnecessary to almost everyone but perfectionists and professionals.
-
I'm going to say most responses will be no because they're not professionals who need them.
