SPOLIERS Which is my favorite changes all the time but KB1 has had the spot the most times and the longest. So that its nr1 now can be mostly because its the newest and "freshest". As time moves on it may or may not slip down. But the reasons its competing in the top: Message Compared to many of his films its not a "saga" with a series of events that are entertaining. In this I felt a strong message. It made me think a lot about the current situation in the US and why it is like it is. That leads me to think about the goods and bads of my country and finding the historical events, situations, and times that formed my society. For me it was a movie about racism, life and death, justice, death penalty, gun control, value of a life, police brutality, etc. All big topics right now. Maybe more in the US than other places but its definitely on the agenda here as well. Feelings Also I like movies that provoke all kinds of feelings. Not just laughter, sadness and scariness. But also disgust, rage and anxiety. It was weird to route for some of them when they are all total murdering and hateful basterds that all deserves to get locked up. And also in the absolute final scene, to feel that she didn't deserve it, even though she certainly deserved it more than the other two.. or did she? I need to see it more times before I will ever be able to make that call. Mystery Im a sucker for a good old fashioned murder mystery. "The killer is in this very room", love that sort of stuff. My copy of "Murder on the Orient Express" is one of my most watched films. I watch Midsumer Murders etc. Its fun afterwards to finally connect dots and think, yeah that's what I suspected (Mexican guy and the chicken was enough to know he was lying) but not really getting the jelly bean (I thought it meant someone else was there, which was kinda true but not in the way I thought). Cinematic Ad to that, nice dialog, strong characters, awesome cinematography, great music, phasing etc and you have a movie at the top of my list. Some might say story is everything, I say no. A good story will not help a movie if you can barley pick up what they are saying and the DP left the lens cap on. A great film has both. Now that doesn't mean that a great movie needs 65mm and a huge budget. Imo The Hurt Locker has the best look of all films, Ingmar Bergmans Seventh Seal is looking awesome and don't get me started on Noir

My list (currently). 1. Hateful 8 2. Kill Bill 1 3. Death Proof 4. Jackie Brown 5. Pulp Fiction 6. Inglorious Basterds 7. Kill Bill 2 8. Reservoar Dogs (Django has been sitting in its Bluray box on my shelf since release. Dont know why I havent seen it yet.)

Grabbed a zoom for less than $150. A bit pricy for vintage imo but It seemed nice.

Nikon D5 versus Canon 1D C for cinematic 4K video - which wins?

Nope, its not much bigger than a H4n. Ive had it on cages, in cold shoes, on magic arms and what have you. Its internal mics are also very good.
-
Ive been very happy with the Tascam DR100ii + MKE600 combo. Use it in all kinds of configurations including running the MKE straight in a D750 for really nice ambience.

Sitting on the train home First impression is good. Lots of feelings. Feels wierd to rute for murdering basterds. And to feel sorry for the execution of a murdering basterd. Loved alot of the movie. It will definetelly be my favorite QT film for a while. If it stays number one infront of KB1 remains to see. KB is a film easier to rewatch imo. This might be a bit to heavy. But no doubt, will preorder a Blueray copy as soon as Im done typing this. The trip Regarding the experience it was top noth. Took a first class train to Stockholm. Met with some fellows I make films with from time to time. We had seats on the VIP balcony, first row, dead centre. Captains chair with plenty of leg room and a glass of red wine. Its no secret that Im a sucker for film. So yeah, an awesome night.

There has been at least one delivery of a production unit. So its on its way.
-
Yeah, its to bad since 16mm film isnt to expensive and just as easy as s8 to develope at home. To scan is tougher on the other hand.
-
I just cant belive I didnt bid on an Arri 16 sr1 that whent unsold for a $1000. It included everything you need + lenses.

To ettr the g7. Set the Zebras to 100% and avoid them on any highlight of importance.

Nikon D5 versus Canon 1D C for cinematic 4K video - which wins?
Mattias Burling replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Its higher in Raw stills. Ive shoot plenty with both the D750 and the BMCC. They have the same amount of usable DR. The BMCC is rated at 13 stops. Ive also comoared it to C-log and it has more. -

Dont know about the D5 or D500 but the D750 has 13 usable stops. Neck and neck with the bmcc raw in my side by side test. -
No joke or typo. Developing isnt hard or expensive. If its Color negative, reversal or B&W doesnt matter. Easy peasy. Scanning is trickier for negative. Reversal can be done with a DIY solution and a digital camera, very cheap. But if this is something you really want to do, a s8 automatic frame by frame scanner is $1000.

BTW, remembered seeing a cool macro video shot on the Red One years ago. Might have been the first time I ever heard of it. Rewatched it, still looks good. And it turns out the guy is now making for example the latest Volvo commercial which is just epic. I recently took a University class in marketing and that commercial was talked about in every single example. So I guess he is doing great. Not saying its the cameras credit, but still, kinda cool
-
Ahh makes sence. Still a nice kit though with the lenses. "Che" was shot on the M and most of it looks pretty sweet. Since I knew one other guy that just bought one I thought an FB group was needed https://www.facebook.com/groups/172887176403138/

If you dont get it you dont get it. Some play soccer. I think it sucks. Thats becaude I dont get it. So I let it go. At the store I might buy stuff to make Pizza. The guy next to me buys frozen pizza. None of us get it. So we let it go. But I dont stand there questioning him, try to lecture him or call him names. I let the man eat his pizza and let it go. I will pre-order that thing asap. A roll of of s8 costs $15 from shoot to export from the NLE. Cheaper than going to the movies and ten times more fun imo.

I just had a quick look among the classifieds. Found this: Samsung NX500 Samsung NX 30/2,0Samsung NX 45/1,8Samsung NX 16-50/3,5-5,6 PZ ED OIS Asking 5500 swedish, but he most likely will accept 5000skr = €513

Thought I share since the seller is a nice guy. 1TB version with lots of accessories in the deal and Im sure he sells it outside eBay which probably makes it negotiable. That 16mm lens is sharp as a knife. http://www.ebay.com/itm/D16-Digital-Bolex-2K-Cinema-Camera-free-Switronix-batteries-hood-and-lens-/291646848909?hash=item43e781bf8d%3Ag%3AaBgAAOSwo3pWfe~

Its like when I do a "Hey checkout this $10 lens". Then its not so $10 anymore Yes, just the 17-35. Im getting the 35-70/2.8 today. Bought one for $150. Next I think I will ad a Rokkinon 24 or 35mm.
-
Developing at home i easier than making mac n cheese and costs a fraction. Besides, imo, you dont shoot s8 as an alternative. Its its own thing. Btw, I shot some s35 s8 the other week
-
Had a quick play today. It was -17C so I mostly stayed in. Got borred and played with the exposure of the R1. Its really not that heavy when striped down. Did a quick comparison to the BMCC as well. Think the Blackmagic did alright besides the moire on Gunpowders cheek.
-
That is a D16 with a super-8 lens. Kodak CCD, Raw, Pro audio of the highest level, In camera LUTs coming in firmware. And you would be able to use it for s16 as well.
-
Havent read everything yet but it kinda looks like a Logmar type thing. If so and $2000 or less I will buy it instantly. S8 is cheap, easy to process and scan at home. The quality out of a goood s8 is nice. But the Logmar with a registration pin is something else.
-
And you dont have to whait for years either. G7 is already half price brand new. NX1 half price used. Same thing with lenses, lights etc. Go used.
