However a speedbooster can be had for $200 which is still much less than the Pocket 6k with wider field of view and the option to do 4k RAW without having to crop in on the sensor. You can boost P6K too though: I guess the only P4K advantage is MFT mount lenses option route aside the price, obviously. cam1982 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how well those speedboosters perform in comparison to all the options you have on the pocket, very little information about them. cam1982 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercer Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 23 hours ago, graphicnatured said: Pardon if this was discussed elsewhere, but which c-mount lenses are your favorite with BM? I'm curious to give the 2.6k a try. I always liked Cosmicar, Fujinon, Kern Paillard and the Angeniuex 15mm I liked a lot as well. The key to c-mount lenses is knowing what size sensor/film the lens was originally designed for. Some c-mounts were made for security cameras and some were made for S16mm film. This will tell you if the lens will cover the sensor without vignetting. The other issue is learning which lenses will fit on a c-mount to M4/3 adapter without needing to be modified. Some are too wide at the base to screw all the way into the adapter. Some Cosmicar and Fujinon lenses need to be modified. With the Cosmicar lenses, look for ones that look kinda like old manual metal lenses with knurled grips. There are essentially two different ones... black ones that are f/1.9 and silver ones that are f/1.4. The f/1.9 lenses are fairly sharp wide open. Most Kern lenses will fit the adapters and so will the Angenieux. I've done a lot of research, so I probably know if a specific lens will work or not if you are unsure. Good luck, but be careful... c-mount lenses have a very unique look because you're using the entire surface of the glass, so the image is akin to using FF lenses on a FF camera. They can be very addictive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Canon TV-16 c-mounts are really nice too as are the Zeiss Tevidons. The Cosmicar lenses, which are made by Pentax, are probably the cheapest. The 12.5 and 25mm are great little lenses and can be found for around $50 a piece. Kerns are a little more expensive but they are just gorgeous... mechanically and optically.

I'm not afraid of lenses with character so looking forward to trying some of these out in the BM4k crop when I can. mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanuel Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 That's what makes P4K the best cinema camera ever designed, launched and manufactured so far : ) I mean considering all variables, it's a gem with no comparison at all : -) Be sure I've produced and shot with dozens of camera manufacturers so far, very likely, all existent brands without mention some non-existent today too, beyond more than three decades of work and my love for them ; -) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonysss Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 This is available for free, new 3D LUT for BMPCC4K (inspired by the industry standard Arri - Rec709) The LUT is currently available for Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera (BMPCC4K, BMPCC6K, orig. BMPCC) I've been bothering a lot of different LUTs for a long time... until I created my own http://tondadamborsky.cz/2020/03/19/lut-for-bmpcc4k/ BMPCC4K has warmer colors i recommend u bmpcc4k - WB set slightly to minus (-300,500) than other cameras or orig.Pocket (BMMCC) I hope, you will like it. I tried to keep the max dynamic range, and natural skin color. dslnc, Kisaha, Papiskokuji and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novim Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 A few shorted manuals for DaVinci Resolve (the full manual is 3,200 pages long): The Beginner's Guide to DR 16 (444 pages, direct download here) Advanced Editing with DaVinci Resolve 15, Introduction to Fairlight Audio Post with DaVinci Resolve 15, Color Correction with DaVinci Resolve 16, Fusion Visual Effects with DaVinci Resolve 16 - manuals on this BMD page here. In these days of auto-isolation it is not bad to volve the pages of the manuals, something we never had enough time. - Stay safe. matthere and Kisaha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kisaha Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 wow! very tempting to get AND a 6K, just for the EF mount, and the ATEM capabilities of 2 Pocket cameras. Great one - two punch for most productions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
independent Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Maybe full frame model dropping. With flip screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisaha Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 12 hours ago, independent said: Maybe full frame model dropping. With flip screen. the full frame will certainly come at some point, but how much will that be? Will they change their body/ergonomics? and why now? it will be making more sense to keep everything similar (a lot more profitable) until they change this generation of Pocket cameras. I will be waiting until September to make a move, but this price drop (which isn't real yet, as all the dealers around here have the same prices 2400-3082, with 2700 the official price from the official BM retailers) is really tempting and makes a lot of sense for a lot of people.

thebrothersthre3 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 It’s already taken into effect at the big retailers in the US B&H and Adorama. Can’t wait till the used market drops to $1700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
