That's pretty awesome. Where did this come from? They tested the original Pocket tested at around 12.5, which was consistent with other third party results, and the P4K hasn't been tested at all. Or has it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More people have (or had) it than the new one, and they've been using it for quite a few years longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to their more strict tests (1/SNR=0.5, number in bold on the right) the OG pocket has 11.2 and P4K has 11.6. The pocket 4K has about half a stop more of dynamic range. tonysss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shirozina Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 DR advantages are only useful if you can expose the footage accurately enough to exploit it and exp controls on the P4k are pretty basic (Even the GH5 has a waveform). I'd like to see an RGB parade display on the P4k..... deezid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helium Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 1 hour ago, tonysss said: OT Pocket has 12,5 , it's about 1 stop more ? Watch the video. They rate the original BMPCC at 11.2 and the BMPCC 4K at 11.6. They appear to be using the lower more conservative set of values (SNR=.5) in the chart reproduced above. In any event, they state plainly that by their measurements, the P4K has more dynamic range. This is consistent with what most shooters, including this one, have discovered.

I'd like to see an RGB parade display on the P4k..... I agree that it would be nice to have additional tools but I have to say that I think that with Pocket 4K having false colour available (especially on a hardware switch) it will get a lot of people, myself included, closer to where they want the exposure to be a lot quicker. The very quick contextual overview it gives you works better - for me at least - than a waveform so I'm going to say that from a purely selfish point of view, BM chose the right option for the initial release CaptainHook and Jonesy Jones 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turboguard Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 That Tilta pack looks awesome! I hope it will be affordable. Kinda sucks I just spent 400 bucks on a setup! Would love the nucleus N handle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
