webrunner5 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Wow is it me, other than the Sony A9, NAB seems to be a bust so far?? I know it Just started but... Emanuel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted April 22, 2017 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2017 Yeah looking boring so far but remember... it doesn't start proper until Monday. And leaks usually don't start to appear until the day before. However I am not that hopeful for much excitement on the camera side. Sony probably won't come with an A7S 3 just yet... Panasonic probably won't come with much as GH5 still fresh... Canon probably asleep and Nikon probably doesn't even know NAB is on Dave Maze, Philip Lipetz, Emanuel and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of NAB news, is there a favorite site for summaries, etc? The Mix Pre 6 ($900) looks like a nice upgrade from the Zoom F4 ($650): https://www.sounddevices.com/products/recorders/mixpre-6 (MicPre-3 only has 3 inputs- can't use for 4-channel Ambisonic 3D recording, which is what I use the F4 for). The extra $250 is for the analog limiters (amazing!), build quality, and excellent sounding preamps (not just quiet- also a very full sound; though couldn't find a review for the new Kashmir preamps).

zerocool22 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Im not hoping on any new camera's, there is a lot of good choice already atm. But I hope somebody finally releases some decent budget single focus anamorphic lenses. At a sub 2K pricepoint per lens or something.

At a sub 2K pricepoint per lens or something. Anamorphics are significantly more complex than spherical lenses in their construction, whilst also having a more limited market - which means an anamorphic at that price point is unlikely for quite some time; or at least at a quality that anyone would find acceptable. It's hard to come by even decent spherical lenses for too much less than $2k each, so I don't know how you'd expect anamorphics to be available at that price point...

SuperSet Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Would be funny if best thing to come out of NAB is a working version of Premiere for the GH5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Forsman Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I've been waiting for the NAB announcements before purchasing a 4K camera for my anamorphic needs. My BMCC and BMMCC are great but need to be able to scale 4K down to 2K to avoid sacrificing resolution. And personally, I'm not entirely convinced the GH5 is for me. I want ProRes HQ at a minimum. So if BMD doesn't offer up a new compact 4K cinema camera at their press conference tomorrow, I'll likely pick up the old BMPC 4K on ebay. I see them going for as little as $1200. and its 1.7x crop would let me use my Leica 35mm Summicron as a taking lens. damn, now I'm really considering it. Why didn't I think of this sooner? kaylee, Hanriverprod and Cinegain 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
