Samyang was working on anamorphic lenses last year, seen photo's of a prototype. But never heard from it again. Could you check with them, if its coming or if it is a dead project?

Better invest in the tilta nucleus-n.

Heey guys, I saw a video once where a guy fixed his lens which had a color cast. By putting a red light on it, a day later the problem was gone. Offcourse now I cant find the video. But what kind of light bulb do I need? Is it IR? Thanks!

Yeah waiting on the pricedrop before I pull the trigger on the dji mavic pro II. As you all know DJI slashes prices faster then I can say uncle.

Sure but the image will not be the same, the 5d raw image is far better then anything else In the same price bracket. Even the 5d iii raw blows most cameras today out of the water. Sure it will not be the tool you use on a daily basis, but def will be my goto tool for creative projects as the canon colour science rocks.

I already have a Ursa mini pro, and yes on paying jobs where the client is on set, I would probably take the UMP. But for my own shortfilms, I def would use the 5D IV RAW, I loved the 5D III RAW, only thing I missed on that camera was 60fps 1080p and also the dynamic range sucked. Depending if they can indeed remove the crop, but pretty sure they can as they are just dumping the RAW readout files onto the cards. (rolling shutter not sure, I guess it will be still the same)

I will blow everything below 10k out of the water when it works. A Full frame RAW shooter that does 13.6 EV stops of DR. The mavo LF is the nearest camera to it but that one is 12K body only. (well 4K 60fps will not be possible I guess, but I am happy with just 1080p 60fps but 24/25fps is still the goto framerate)

Well now we know magic lantern does not brick the camera. So now def the time users can step up and test. - [extremely easy] find out whether photo capture works (this didn't work from FIR; just try the intervalometer sample code) - [extremely easy] play around with FPS and resolution overriding registers; document what works and what not - [easy, important] update the codebase to 1.1.2 (easy coding tutorial following task, still open, can be debugged in QEMU) - [easy] log various things in Canon firmware (such as photo capture, entering LiveView); the digic6-dumper branch has logging enabled by default. - [moderate, important] figure out how to print things on the screen (look up 5DS experiments, posts from Ant123 and read the CHDK threads on this topic) - [moderate?] fix the emulator to run these things properly - [moderate?] port io_trace to ARMv7 (can be debugged in QEMU) - [moderate] try to understand the communication between the two cores (main and AE) - [hard] understand the Omar secondary core (it appears to handle the image capture pipeline)

Well Canon might become the top dog again (thanks to magic lantern though) https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=17695.msg210034#new

Yeah just came here to post this as well. There might be a all time favorite dslr camera on the rise ?

I do not see red or arri implementing good autofocus. So not sure why blackmagic should. Its a cinema camera, and ibis or autofocus are not on my havetoo shortlist. The pocket 4k is on place 1 for sure on my list.

The blackmagic one is affordable and also very good.

I love Philip Bloom for the information what he has given us. But I dont think he is a DOP, not even a cinematographer, videographer/camera operator is more likely the term you can describe him with.

But still this would sell like hotcakes. I def will get one unless they are 20k.

Well I have seen only this test so far. But not sure what to think of it.

Did you test your C200 vs your C300 II? I have only seen older tests without the new firmware upgrade. Offcourse the c200 is codec wise crippled. But what are your thoughts about these 2 camera's. The c200 is newer and cheaper, but the C300 ii has more codec options. But the image from the C200 doesnt seem to look worse then the c300 ii (not sure if I can judge sharpness/colours/image of these youtube video's)

haha and I already would be satisfied with a 2K one with a good image and with high DR and 60fps.

Conspirary, well its just companies trying to force and create a new market where they can earn a lot of money on.

Going to bump this again, to check if anybody has a 5D IV on here that is willing to give it a go.

Wow has it already been 10 years. what have I done with my life. At least Philips career took off from then and peaked and is now back where ever he started I guess. I remember Philip Bloom's 7D tutorial series. Which helped me out a lot when starting out. But dang this is the proof right here, dont fixate on gear and stop waiting on the gear to become affordable.

Does nobody with a 5D IV want to try this?

Did you shoot c300 ii vs c300 ii external recording test? Based on dr, color, sharpness, easy to colorgrade? Yeah reckon alexa mini is prob still 5 years away for buying it under 10k.

You are forgetting white balance and extra dr of raw. I still feel the UMP image is closer then the c300 ii to the alexa. What are your thoughts Ed?

Too bad it only records raw externally and too bad they crippled the c200. Maybe the next versions will be where its at.

Whenever prores is not available, DNxHD is quite good also. h264 for corporate/event stuff though
