Grimor Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 @BTM_Pix Did you preordered the P4K? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 For those who think Grant Petty is a philanthropist giving away free software and cameras - well first, the P4K is a great deal as far as I can tell - and for sure, Blackmagic isn’t as big as Sony - but their business is nothing if not profitable, with an annual revenue exceeding $300 million a year. I’m not saying this in any way to detract from Grant Petty’s achievements - just to put things in perspective, bcz it sounds as though some actually think he’s giving away cameras for free. You might do a friend’s wedding for free to build your portfolio, but this is far from Mr Petty’s first rodeo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I've done a "virtual cancellation" of sorts. I've swapped reservations with a mate of mine with the proviso that I can have it for a few weeks first for obvious reasons and then he will take it. Gives me enough time to see how things shake out until I take up his pre-order (he is waaaayy down the list) as I've got no real need for it until next March/April time anyway.

I guess Resolve has a pretty powerful face refinement tool that looks like it works quite well. I first saw a demo of it in Dave Dugdale’s BRAW video. Edit: it might be buggy, I’ve never used it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might do a friend’s wedding for free to build your portfolio, but this is far from Mr Petty’s first rodeo. Of course Blackmagic are profitable but at the same time, compared to what the rest of the industry are doing, they are 'pretty much' giving away their products. Pocket4k with Resolve = US$1299 Adobe Premiere/After Effects/Audition subscription for 2 years = USD$1248 So after 2 years....yes, BMD have given you a free camera. ?

It's just a shame they haven't managed to get it like that 'out of camera'. Still a great deal though. Well, strangely, I prefer "too much detail" because you can "bring it down" in post if it's too much. "Low detail" is impossible to recover.

ajay Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 31 minutes ago, Jocelyn Deguise said: "Low detail" is impossible to recover. Totally agree. There are a few of us who use these cameras for wildlife videography and I would rather have a weak AA filter than a strong one. (Canon is a prime example. They consistently produce sensors with heavy AA filters. It's great for faces, but not the best when you are looking for sharp detail in animals.)

I'm going to use this as part of a DIY portable standalone field copy device that I mentioned a while ago. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0777958WY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_95LOBbR957CN5 Well its arrived and it works a treat in my initial test with a MacBookPro Both drives show up without any messing about and copying a test 2 gig backwards and forwards between them is just under 10 seconds each way. For the £12.99 I paid for it off Amazon its a bargain just as a Cfast reader even without the extra SATA trick it has. Next step is to lash it to a SBC to make it standalone. I have the whiff of epoxy in my nostrils.... Kisaha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That update is going to be such a good one. Braw and Ronin focus control in one (hopefully). Still going to hold off buying the S until that update arrives.

Right, 1. Why is he getting more info than the people at IBC? 2. What is “1 godz”? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
