RAW has become wacky inside of Premiere and adds a weird cyan fringe (which you can see on the edge of some trees).

ade towell Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 the footage looks wonderful - although everything from Wyatt shot with the old bmc camera is great too, his other documentaries are worthy of a watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it's a relief to hear that the fringing is a problem with Premiere and not the camera itself, because this footage rocks in every other respect.

Great location, sharp long primes, and obvious grading effort. Playing field leveler lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raf702 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 When is this damn camera gonna be available and shipping out!?! NAB is next month! They might announce another new camera, and post a shipping time of summer 2016 for that camera. While these cameras are still on pre-order status from last year NAB. =( What they should announce, is that they aren't making any new cameras and focused on shipping out their current pre-orders! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Plagaro Mussard Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Yes, BM is at risk of entering a dead loop where they keep announcing and never putting on the streets new cameras!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comments on the *slight* magenta cast cause worrying: is that IR-pollution or *just* the filmmakers inability to grade? Unbelievable. Well, for all practical purposes, I don't see the advantages over ProResHD so far. Even, as one has pointed out, the obvious advantage over the much cheaper 4k version ...

Well, it looks like there's an important advantage when you shoot Raw (specially for those that think the motion of the 4.6K cam looks too videoish). Used to 5D ML Raw, there was something bugging me about the footage I was seeing from the Ursa 4.6K, I loved the latest stills, but in motion it always lost a big chunk of its cinematic mojo. Speaking to one of the cams testers over at BMCuser, he told me that it's got to do with the Prores compression, and that shooting Raw retains the cinematic motion... http://www.bmcuser.com/showthread.php?15520-Brief-thoughts-and-a-bit-of-footage-from-the-URSA-Mini-4-6K/page297 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

André Eriksson Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Came across this Tested/Mythbusters clip where they have strapped a Ursa 4,6k to a car with an interesting rig. Quite a long clip, some footage from the camera scattered through out, most of it at the end (8:00 and forward). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
