thebrothersthre3 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Curious does anyone know why none of Blackmagic's cameras besides the URSA can do Prores 444 Would be nice to have on the P6K to shoot in HD 444 and get an image that is similar to RAW without shooting cropped HD RAW. I am also aware how counterproductive it sounds to get a 6k camera and shoot in HD 😅 but what can I say 6k and even 4k is overkill for most of the stuff I do.

FranciscoB Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Probably a distinction between models. Better versions of prores exclusive for higher models. thebrothersthre3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff CB Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Yeah the complete lack of 4:4:4 is frustrating. Even if it was just in 1080p. I adore the 4:4:4 from the Ursa. thebrothersthre3 and IronFilm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I adore the 4:4:4 from the Ursa. Yeah I am just realizing it. Probably gonna shoot most stuff on 1080 or 2k 444 tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranciscoB Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Only the ursa models had and have the prores 444 so it doesn't surprise me and it seems totally coherent with bm record. On the lower models you have prores 422 flavors and raw. On the higher models you have several versions of prores and raw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, my only other though that maybe its a heating issue on the smaller cameras? The Pocket 4k and 6k don't have dual gain readout like the older cameras and the Ursa's either. You may be right though, could be just the cripple hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrothersthre3 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 Some footage I took tonight with the Ursa in 2k 444. Really doesn't perform bad in low light. 1600 iso would actually be nice if it didn't have that damn fixed noise pattern. Switched to Arri color space, threw on the Log C REC709 lut in Resolve, and tweaked skintones slightly. JordanWright 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
