sanveer Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Leica colors in video is a complete dream, looks so amazing.I guess even more than colours the 4-2-2 codec and the medium format look will be superb with leica glass. And good 4k. Though the price is prohibitive (except that it is a Medium Format Camera, and that it is a Leica). sudopera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkor Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 WOW the music made me so motivated I started to believe 45mm is medium format. richg101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volker Schmidt Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 The presentation of female behavior is just super-stupid...!It´s so stupid as this one:https://vimeo.com/groups/blackmagic/videos/48025934Dynamic range also doesn´t convinced me...But I have sympathy for the Brand: Leica and the format:)Curious to see, other examples!

BrooklynDan Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 That looks astonishing. I know that the pixel peepers will start tearing it apart, but that's the closest I've seen to an authentic medium format look in digital next to the Arri Alexa 65. The motion cadence is just amazing. And of course, it's way too damn expensive. The lenses alone are several thousand a piece and exclusive to the camera.

nigelbb Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Just looked at the price. Yikes!!! The LEICA S (Typ 007) makes the Hasselblads look cheap & they really are medium format although stills only. 4K is only available in Super 35 crop mode.

Guest Ebrahim Saadawi Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Even the 4K s35 looks astonishing, and the medium format HD is just a completely new motion aesthetic, heavenly. Please someone make a cheap sub 4000$ MF video camera. I'll even settle for 720p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricardo_sousa11 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 It doesnt look Medium Format, which is weird, I dont really like the footage at all, it looks amateurish, need to see another video... Jonesy Jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sekhar Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 OK, I don't get it. Looks soft, contrasty, and over-saturated. Sadly, even the models look like addicts, usually they make up for the footage. Those of you wowed by this, could you explain in specific terms what you liked? I mean specific terms, not generic stuff like "pleasing," "filmic," or "natural." Jonesy Jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegain Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm with you guys. Not really blown away either. I know it's Leica and it's expensive, but that doesn't justify getting a wow from me. They've put a whole shooting team on that and that's what the best you can get out of the camera? Not so sure then... yeah, you get nice sharp subjects against a creamy flowy backdrop, but other than that there's hardly more charm to that footage than something RAW shot with a 5DmkIII or so.

Julian Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I've heard the rolling shutter is terrible in 4K mode.The sensor has a crop factor of 0,8x compared to fullframe. The fastest Leica S lenses are f/2.5. In terms of DOF, any fullframe camera can give you the same DOF with f/2 lenses...I really can't see what's special about that sample clip uploaded in 720p. Could've been shot with a Canon 550D, some good lenses and the help of a good colourist. richg101, Jonesy Jones and Zach Goodwin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesnt that defeat the purpose of....Medium Format ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegain Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Well, it means that full frame itself comes in at a crop of 1.25x. Crop factor 1x would be the same size as full frame. GH4 in 4K would be 2.3x crop. But anything below 1x crop, so 0.8x, would be bigger, even though it's a bit odd to still call it a 'crop'. 24mm FF lens on a M43 4K would be 55mm (x2.3). On MF 19mm (x0.8). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
