Lintelfilm Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Is it a good idea to pair a Zuiko 12mm 2.0 and an ATOMOS shogun for 4k recording of the micro studio camera in the field?The Micro Studio Camera is not good to pair with anything "in the field". It's for a studio, period. It's not a camera to try rigging and hacking for other uses - you'll be disappointed if you do. gsenroc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majoraxis Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Micro. A short film by Noam Kroll shot on the Micro Cinema Camera.Info about the shoot in the link below:http://noamkroll.com/micro-a-short-film-shot-on-the-blackmagic-micro-cinema-camera/ Cinegain, Jimmy and richg101 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 It looked great, as his stuff usually does. Interesting little story, even though the writer in me thinks the video shot of her should have been in the present, since Noam already introduced a supernatural element when the stalker vanished into thin air. But I digress, it looked great... If only it had an LCD. graphicnatured 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Okay girl picks up sd card, girl gets on computer, and finds guy has taken video of her. Where does it escalate?Short films do not require the 3 act structure of a feature film. This specific short utilizes a simpler 2 act structure of setup and payoff. Read about the structure of a joke... Very useful for short films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squig Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Anyone notice there's no micro jitters in those handheld shots? Global shutter; I want, I want!Unexpected environment? I intend to shoot a feature with it; because why wouldn't I?I've got a Tokina 11-16 but I hate the ugly bokeh. I getting a Samyang 16mm; real creamy bokeh, sharp, and fast. The Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 with a Nikon mount speedbooster is on my BMMCC shopping list too. Has anyone had any problems using the Samyang 16mm on a BMPCC with a mosaic filter and speed booster?

Super Members Mattias Burling Posted January 19, 2016 Super Members Share Posted January 19, 2016 It looks good, like a bmpcc.Only reason I would get one over the pocket is slowmo and GS. So hopefully there will be a video showing it soon. KrisAK and AaronChicago 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenEricson Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Only reason I would get one over the pocket is slowmo and GS. So hopefully there will be a video showing it soon.Exactly… This looks like the same film convert pocket footage I have been seeing for the past two years...The retailer I talked to said they heard they are getting the 4.6k URSA sensors soon, but no word on these cameras or the 4.6k Ursa Mini… Doesn't sound like it is happening in january. Funny, in the comments he said he didn't need an IR filter… Maybe she changed into a black shirt later on in the day. thefactory, Zak Forsman and Mattias Burling 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 things I really didn't like about the BMPCC were the micro HDMI output and the shitty screen just there draining battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have used it in just about every possible condition, its not great, but good enough imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsenroc Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 It looks gorgous. I think I'll buy one.The micro hdmi was indeed a pain on many cameras. I wish SDI could become the standard of the consumer cameras as well but I know sadly it won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richg101 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 it's pretty irritating they gave it to a guy who goes right ahead and shoots the test in rolling shutter mode showing us exactly what we expected based on our experiences with the bmpcc. isn;t it a given to use the global mode for a test of a camera who's key selling point over the previous model is the global shutter mode...I'd have rather seen unscripted footage with lots of movement and a bright sky and lots of shadow so I can decipher whats going on with the global shutter enabled. Come on BM give the camera to Andrew Reid next time and stop messing around. Liam, Cinegain, Zach Goodwin and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Forsman Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 one reassurance I got out of him is the Micro will do 60p in RAW. some were worried about the datarate being too high for the approved lot of SD cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 You are working on the assumption that it is just a BMPCC with GS and 60p... There is every chance that they are using a new chipset that has increased rolling shutter and helped with other artefacts. The above video is a valid test and looks great too.

squig Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 60p raw is welcome news. Going handheld with a Pocket or a DSLR with comparable rolling shutter is something I would never even contemplate. My impression looking at the footage is that the BMMCC has a faster sensor read time than the Pocket, but I can't be certain until somebody does a rolling shutter test.

gsenroc Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 As it stands, i think not... But hopefully someone will make an HDMI wifi stream gizmo.There is a Teradek Clip which can stream the HDMI signal to iphone/ipad using H.264, but at a cost of 4 frames delay, which I think is quite ok but expensive.

mercer Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 As it stands, i think not... But hopefully someone will make an HDMI wifi stream gizmo.I was wondering the same thing. According to B&H's overview, it will accept a wireless hdmi transmitter that can transmit to an iPhone but they seem pricey. It would be cool and cost effective if there was a way to adapt one of gopro's LCD backpack screens to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegain Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Kinda this:I hope they bring a true successor to the BMPCC... Usually I'd be fan of something modular. But not if it makes things clunky. This doesn't feel much run-n-gun.I guess I could sell off two of my BMPCCs and start using it with the VA like so:... but it kinda looks like something you wouldn't actually want to be doing.
