Brian Williams Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Can’t afford that $300 Sigma loupe so making my own. A newer version is printing now that will be collapsible (also sanded and painted so not bright yellow) buggz and billdoubleu 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynes Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Why don't they do a rotating sensor so you can use it vertically without unnusual rolling shutter issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawshooter Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Rookie question: Does the Sigma fp crop the sensor when recording 4K CinemaDNG from 6K sensor, or is the CinemaDNG downsampled (like MagicLantern Raw)? Same question re: the 2K CinemaDNG recording... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lars Steenhoff Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 A square sensor could work for both orientations, and with two readout modes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abehalpert Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 The color in some of these videos looks beautiful. But a lot of the saturated colors in the Philip Bloom video were really loud and videoish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general, I'm not a big fan of Bloom's grading. Sometimes he pulls it off, but I feel he pushes things a little too far a little too often.

Careful.. someone will read this and take it one step further and we'll end up with some 2-bit cinema camera company. We've had those before and they only leave broken promises and heartbreak in their wake! Waynes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a little thin pocket Red Epic that way. But then you have to rotate the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markr041 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 My test of 8bit DNG RAW straight to an sd card. I also conclude that having the full dynamic range of the sensor, no color subsampling, and no compression that DNG RAW provides may be a lot more important than 8 versus 10bits. austinchimp and mercer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in terms of dynamic range 12 bit yields cleaner shadows than 8, probably the main practical advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, which also means that you can expose to preserve/better roll off the highlights (which in the above material do sometimes clip), since with 12bit,. you can raise gamma and shadows in post without getting color tearing artefacts.
