Octapus Cinema Raw Player

[Anaconda_]

Aftern hearing about this company in another topic after a few years, they've released some software to help people shooting cDNG. I've not yet tested it, but it looks pretty good. Essentially it's just playback and light raw controls for now, but their roadmap suggests they're working on exporting to ProRes, which will be great for cameras like the Sigma FP, that only record uncompressed.

Interesting and potentially a way to eliminate a serious annoyance / workflow limitation.

Crimson Engine did a video recently talking about the things that the market actually wants in a cinema camera, and one item he mentioned was that many formats aren't playable in the OS, so I take that to indicate that there are a decent number of people out there that care about this aspect.
