TheRenaissanceMan Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 5 hours ago, Bioskop.Inc said: I'm just surprised that they even bothered. They should have made a camera that was better for compact handheld work (Ikonoskop style) - larger than the BMPCC, smaller than the BMCC (you could rig it a little or use as is). Have an internal EVF (no poor screen), make it s16/s35 switchable, make it either 1080p or 2.5k & give it 60p for the slow-mo freaks. They could still do this & kill the market dead! That camera basically exists. It's called the Kinemini 4K. Geoff CB and IronFilm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 60fps, You only have RAW 3:1 available. Thanks Zak, I really appreciate it! After some research I'm getting the Sandisk "extreme pros 95MB", any new discoveries worth knowing about when it comes to SDs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cojocaru27 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Zak, can you please share some raw footage of the camera in the topic dedicated to camera's footage? thank you. Was looking everywhere to find some files to have a proper look and couldn't find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shijan Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 if somebody interested here is my collection of BMMCC raw samples shared in different places by different people. It will be updated in future with new samples. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/u9a3t5j3dgxwizf/AABaG3o24vOwJBkAnZWVmpb8a?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry, I would love to but the docs and commercial work I've shot so far has either been for clients, so i don't own it, or is part of a short film that I'm shooting on nights and weekends. But it looks like Shijan hooked you up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am i wrong or he got one from BM a while ago? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzBox Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 @Zak Forsman is the FPN a RAW issue only or is it present also in ProRes? I still have to test my Micro for that problem, because I'm far from home to shot a music video with my GH4. In the meantime I noticed that BlackMagic Video Assist drop frames at 50p (ProRes 422 HQ) while it doesn't in ProRess 422... Thank you!!

JazzBox Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 10 minutes ago, Zak Forsman said: it's in both. Thank you very much for your help! I hope it is something manageable that does not compromise the usability of the camera... I still have my GH4 but I'd love to shot my next gig with that. If the overall quality is good I'll keep it... In this moment I'm sorry that I have not here with me to make some tests... I hope at the end of the week I'll have some hours to try it. Do you think this Rollei Cage could work for both Micro and GH4? Excuse if I bother you, but I love the images you made with GH4, so I'm sure you know exactly the pro and the cons of both http://www.rollei.com/products/tripods/video-tripods-video-accessories/rolleiflex-4k-s-cage,p252124 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shijan Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 new cage under development http://www.smallrig.com/SMALLRIG-Blackmagic-Micro-Cinema-Camera-Gage-1773.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Forsman Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 saw that last night. looks pretty good. will definitely swap my wooden camera cage out for it. keeping my eye out for it's move to "pre-order" status where you can usually get it for a 50% discount.

gsenroc Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Wonderful! I just ordered my Micro yesterday. Now I'm so excited. IronFilm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shijan Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 The only thing worries me is that this Smallrig cage seems can be easy bended if connect top handle and attach heavy rig at the bottom. There are only two thin connections with a lot of drilled holes between up and bottom cheese plates. Lets wrote them about this issue if you think same, maybe they can improve design.

JazzBox Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I'm thinking to this one for both the Micro and the GH4, it seems pretty solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
