Thanks for the great info. One thing I'd like to second is that using an IR Cut filter helps prevent color-shift with dark colors. Rigging this for tripod shooting makes it much less of bear to work with. The footage is so nice from this device that the BMPCC 4K (in CDNG RAW mode) is the C-cam for wide shots and B-roll to my (2) BMPCC OG's for close-ups.

Suggestion: I highly recommend Breakthrough FIlters. I used their CPL filter - it has a 2 step ND layer built in - in a tropical location on a basic Canon photocamera: sharp images, no color distortion/change, slight super pleasant peach hue (you will most likely love it, but if not, simply adjust the white balance), price is around $160. You can see for yourself comparisons of Breakthrough ND and CPL filters to other brands on youtube in a great variety. I recomend review by Matt Granger. See for yourself. Options #1: You can get either regular step-up ring and regular CPL filter, or a magnetic variation of both. The last one is meant for those who want to swap filters without messing up composition of the shot. Option #2: CPL I used, has a built-in 2-step ND layer. The company also has a CPL filter with 4-step ND layer - Dark CPL filter. Since the company is always priogressing and developing new filters, it will most likely have even darker ND layered CPL filters in the future. Enjoy!

Great stuff.. you should do the same review of a step-up rig , whatever that might be.

Most cameras coming out still can't shoot the look of what this camera produces. Its soooo unique in my opinion. And I love the 4k and with all the upgrades you'll need to get its also a camera that you'll need to upgrade your wallet to get it to work like you need to.

Thanks for the info. I have a question about using the 8.5 DC voltage on the Feelworld FW759 7 Monitor to power the camera. I use a Panasonic Leica 12-60 with internal image stabilization. Will the 8.5 v from the monitor be enough to power both the camera and the image stabilization in my lens?

Another great video, Jamie. I think it should be noted that this might be the best cinema camera rig THAT SHOOTS RAW under $1,000. Other setups (GH3, GH4, Sony a6000, etc.) have similar specs (max 1080 FHD resolution, MFT lens mount, etc.) and can produce similar results (although not in RAW). Those camera bodies can be had for around $300-400. You could even go with a Canon 7D (which I had for years) which can be bought for $235 and forego the speedbooster cost, bringing the entire setup down to $600 or so. You could even install Magic Lantern and shoot RAW on the 7D! Again, excellent video - I just wanted to shed light on other possible options for users that may not need to shoot RAW.

Lots of valid arguments for not bothering with a uv filter. There is not a lens in the last 20 years that doesn't have that protection already. So people say that they need them to keep the lens from getting scratched but in reality most uv adapters are really cheap plastic and scratch a hundred times easier than glass from a lens. Sales people love to sell them though. Tony Northrup took a screw driver to a 50mm lens and you couldn't see the scratches in the image.

As for "cinema" camera, original Pocket is therefore better, because it is very close to the Arri Alexa thanks to DualGain technology. Arri Alexa also has DualGain technology and this should not be confused with DualISO. What I want to say is, that the original BMPCC allows for more cinematic looks. It's a real "cinema" camera, a little Arri Alexa. Yes, the sensor plays a crucial role, because through DualGain and the pixelsize, the light is better captured, it has a nicer and better DynamicRange...it's not too digital. Skin tones, highlights look better. The original BMPCC is not a lowlight camera (it doesn't have to be). But as soon as the scene is illuminated, it looks phenomenal. CDNG is also a better RAW than BRAW (Better a good, a qualitative 1080p, instead of a bad 4K.). In my opinion BMD didn't bring any improvement with the BMPCC4K (I don't need a bigger screen, better internal microphone, because I use all that externally). It doesn't matter. Important is a good sensor, good RAW). I tested BMPCC4K and brought it back. Even if it's cheap, I don't like it. When Blackmagic Design releases a new Pocket with Fairchild sensor, I buy. If not, then I stay with the original BMPCC. And I think that I am not alone with my conviction and disappointment regarding the BMPCC4K.

Jamie Fenn thanks for the advice

A guy in my neighborhood is selling this for 380 bucks. Should I pull the trigger? I was looking to get a Cannon M50 or a G7, or something along those lines to get into indie filmmaking. But this deal seems too good. Thoughts?

Honestly it depends on what your main focus is. The bmpcc is purely a cinema camera. That’s one hell of a deal if it’s in good condition. If you want to take photos as well and have a budget you may want to look into something else.

Has anyone experienced the flashing red exclamation point? My cam seems to be dropping frames within seconds, shooting pro res 422 on a sandisk extreme plus 80mb? Is it the sd card or something else?

That camera is around $2000.00.... thats way beyond the price range of people looking for a budget rig. The reason I made this is to show how little money you can spend and get the highest image quality. Man for that price range you could build out a bmpcc4k.

The BMPCC is great, but for me the battery issue and the fact that the image can easily look shaky and bad when shooting handheld (a good stabilising lens can coutneract this, I know, but with IS designed for still photo you can get these really weird artifacts) forced me to sell mine. I still haven't found an image I love as much as the BMPCC, it's the best I've seen for that prize and even well above the price range. If I find a good rig solution I might get one again, but as I shoot gerilla handheld style without any fussing around with rigs, it's still too finicky for me.

I really wish Blackmagic would have called their pocket 4k the Cinema 4k. That would have left them room to make a smaller camera to keep in the 'pocket' class. I need a small gimble camera that I can carry all day, and once the pocket 4k is built up it needs a hefty gimble. I've looked at the original pocket camera as a light gimble cam, but I would need low light and I'm already addicted to Blackmagic Raw, so the pocket is not the camera for me. Hopefully, the next Blackmagic camera is similar in size/form factor to the Micro Cinema Camera and can fit on a Ronin SC or Moza Aircross 2.

@JamieFenn

4 жыл бұрын

TOTALLY AGREE. Its certainly NOT a pocket sized camera... but there was so much hype behind the first one for the size and capabilities that I think they just wanted to ride their own cameras coat tails. If you get some nice primes (like the slrmagic hyperprimes that are something like .95) you should be able to get decent results. If you check out that movie Cosmos that I was talking about in my video the whole movie is shot at night time. Feel free to check it out!
